In order for any person to receive a card, they must be in the city of that card, INCLUDING the researcher. The researcher is able to give cards to other players (anywhere), and they may be any card. In order for Jaz to get the cards, Jaz and the person who had the cards must be that city, unless Rik would give Jaz the card, as he's the researcher. Jaz could take if it was her turn, or Rik giving her the card. (At least by my understanding) I will admit, the rules in this game are very confusing when it comes to rules, and I was very confused when I first started playing this game.
I think that their issue was giving vs. taking on each other's turns. On your turn, you can only give a card. Receiving cards happens on other's turns. The researcher can give or receive any card in any city. When they tried to receive cards, they did it on the wrong turn.
Makes sense, the game is played with slightly modified rules because people interpret differently, while the video game has no leniency when it comes to rules.
You can take and give cards on your turn. The researcher’s ability only allows the researcher to give any player any card but must follow the same rules as other players when receiving cards.
Many of these online board games you guys have started recently (ticket to ride, mysterium, now pandemic) I have played irl. It's so cool seeing you guys play the online versions and seeing the actual cards from the board games in the digital version :D Next time someone should go quarantine specialist, I feel like it makes the game slightly easier since it stops infections and outbreaks in the city that it's in AND the connecting cities!
Love the channel! If you play again, try it with the Quarantine Specialist. Cities they are in AND connected to don’t get infected if they are pulled. It helps things run a lot smoother.
Pandemic is renown for being one of the most popular and also hardest co-op board games in the tabletop community. The introductory game is known for kicking people’s butts. Good luck!
Awesome game I'm really enjoying these board game type games because I'm that kind of person I have about 20 different types of monopoly and also own many other games( including card games) thank you so much you have a great community and you all do what games are for having fun with your friends.
We're all playing a 7.8 billion player game now. Some roles include the OCD hand-washer, the anti-masker, the extra 20 feet social distancing guy, the nobody's going to stop me from going on vacation guy, etc.
This channel I'm acctually mad that you guys don't get noticed more people need to get off fortnite to watch this I researched ark series 3 times me on episode 50 on sharers skies I love it so much this channel cures my depression
I know you said you didn't want to hear it but I'll give a tip. I really suggest playing the board game because since you are the one doing the mechanics you'll be reading over and over the rules and it will help you grasp a better understanding. I actually won the first time I played but it is a very difficult game and there will be a lot of losses. Was a good try and don't give it up. You'll get it eventually
So for stuff where there was already many pandemy pips, it was not pure bad luck. When you reshuffle the discard pile, you don't actually reshuffle the while thing, you reshuffle the discard pile and put that whole thing on top. So you're guaranteed to go through all those cities before any new cities getting infected
If played correctly "resilient population" is the strongest event card of the base set of the game, you have to play it before the shuffle of the deck after a pandemic card (you can play it in every moment of the game, even during the procedure imposed by the "pandemic" card) in order to avoid immediate outbreaks...
Overall, the game is easier with 2 players than it is with 4. Allows players to collect certain colors without worrying about trading. Also, make sure any cities with 3 cubes are a top priority. An epidemic can happen out of nowhere and ruin your day. I would like to see you try this one again. Playing the same one again will help make improvements, like "No Time to Relax" and "Overcooked".
I don’t know about the digital version but for the physical version, there’s an expansion pack that will allow a player to act as the virus. Hopefully, they also have it for the digital version.
Rules aren't quite explained properly: -The cards the players draw never reshuffle. If that deck is empty, you lose. (Lack of funding, is how I remember it.) -When the infection cards discard pile is shuffled back to the infection deck, they're shuffled together and put on the top, not simply shuffled into the full deck.
watched Will Wheaton play on tabletop and this game is ridiculously hard. Wont spoil whether he wins that ep but he does start the episode saying hes never one a game prior so yea, hard af all around
lmfao...i don't mean to make light of covid19 but it was pretty funny that i used to play this game a lot basically a year before the outbreak happened lol
I can understand the reason that some people would prefer an electronic version of this, but instead of making it simpler, it just becomes harder to understand why things happen. Imagine this with the expansion. How hectic would that be...?
As a German I'm very confused about the location of Essen, because it's a comparably minor city in the West of Germany but this game places it in Denmark? I checked if there was a city of Essen in any Scandinavian country and didn't find one. I am confusion. Edit: Just realised that everything is misplaced London being in the Atlantic Ocean and all^^
It's not misplaced, it's simply not represented on the electronic map. On the real life board there are small lines drawn with dots at the end, the dots being the actual city location. For example, no city named "Milan" exists in Poland, but there's a line from it to North Italy.
This game is hard. I would never say it's easy. Once you understand the way the game works then what you need to do can be straightforward, but actually winning is difficult because there's a lot of RNG involved. In fact I'd say the game is harder with more players, though also more satisfying if you can pull it off.
Could these games be updated with new coronavariants, out of stock vaccines, and crazy President Evil? New DLC coming soon... if you are alive to play it.
Can you guys make a tutorial of this game? It's very complicated and i'd like to be able to follow along better! Also tips and tricks for playing it with friends so we can try and win!

The quarantine specialist is very useful. Blocking infections in all cities surrounding them
Choco loco hahah I think EVERYONE IS A QUARENTINE SPECIALIST.
Yes, its collocation on the board is very tactical...
In order for any person to receive a card, they must be in the city of that card, INCLUDING the researcher. The researcher is able to give cards to other players (anywhere), and they may be any card. In order for Jaz to get the cards, Jaz and the person who had the cards must be that city, unless Rik would give Jaz the card, as he's the researcher.

ironic how this shows up in my recommendations now during 2020...
Saaaaame
Same here
Me too
Nina Nguyen wow you’re so creative, no one else thought the exact same thing
@@Human-gu2cx yeah totally creative and unique
I just got this in my recommended when Covid-19 is happening
Same
Fluff Snowball same bro
Yep watching it for the first time as covid is now happening... the sad irony
me too
Same bruh
Really love these series that you's have started over the last month or two!
@Coronavirus COVID-19 it's been over a year mate.
Love it when experienced players finally learn the real rules

Pandemic is one of my favorite board games :)
this game is so interesting! had me on the edge of the seat the whole time, trying to figure the game out and cheering you guys on
Look at this popping up in my recommendations
I wonder why RUclips recommended this video at this time
Please do more! I'm excited to see how you guys get better at this!
18:17 "if you play this game IRL you are going to lose more often"
what if we're living this game irl?
Good point
welcome to stumpt were 4 people argue about food and play awsome board games
FORESHADOWING

30:17 Price: but to be fair, we did not fully understand the way that the operations…. The dispatcher… or the researcher worked?
Internet: yes
2019: *this game*
2020: *COVID-19*
I am freaking loving the new like online board games thing yall are doing 😋
Yes, its very handy right now! Especially the ONLINE part!
Love the board games so far. I'll gladly watch these. I'm mainly been watching your overcooked playlists so far
Awesome game I'm really enjoying these board game type games because I'm that kind of person I have about 20 different types of monopoly and also own many other games( including card games) thank you so much you have a great community and you all do what games are for having fun with your friends.

Watching in 2021, still in quarantine
Welp I love hearing the conversations abt pandemics and diseases and trying to spread and trying to contain it.
Most realistic part of this is NZ getting off scot free
Actually, Jaz as the operation expert CAN FLY ANYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD WITHOUT DISCARDING ANY CARD
I love reading the comments that are from a year a go and the ones from the last few months
Hope you all play more of this game!
In my personal opinion, I think it’s good to the quarantine specialist, my friends and I play that role and it saves us from outbreaks a lot.
This gameplay aged well...
I love this game!!! Even if I keep losing when I play it. can't wait to see you play more
I know you said you didn't want to hear it but I'll give a tip.

Maybe the combination of Pandemic and Plague Inc. could be Pandem Inc.
Creativity 100
Pun aside, ahhhh plague inc made its own tabletop game so probably nope
I like when they do games alltogether it's funny and entertaining
Seems so hard! Keep it up guys! Pls do more of this. 💪🏻
So for stuff where there was already many pandemy pips, it was not pure bad luck.

Love the old group plays.

Would love to see you guys play this more
Thanks RUclips algorithm. At least you didn't wait 7 years to recommend this
continue playing this game!!! love watching your board game “series” :)
Overall, the game is easier with 2 players than it is with 4. Allows players to collect certain colors without worrying about trading. Also, make sure any cities with 3 cubes are a top priority.

This is a great time to play this game again
There is an Addon for Pandemic where one player plays as a Bio-Terrorist against the other players
Honestly, you guys are doing a better job than some places irl ❤️
this feels WAY to appropriate
I don’t know about the digital version but for the physical version, there’s an expansion pack that will allow a player to act as the virus. Hopefully, they also have it for the digital version.
It has some expansion stuff on the Switch version for free, but not all of it.
This aged well. ...
The legacy version of the game is even cooler
I’d totally recommend playing the legacy version which is one of the best boardgames in the world!
This aged well
ooohh I like this game, yall should do more of it
this is my favorite game
This game is interesting! Would love to see more!

i love how i get this on new years eve
I’ll be 100% honest. I didn’t really know what the quarantine specialist meant until 2020
lmfao...i don't mean to make light of covid19 but it was pretty funny that i used to play this game a lot basically a year before the outbreak happened lol
Oh the irony on when this video is recommended to me
After pandemic :)
After a epidemic the cards that were already flipped are shuffled then put on top
Also, when and epidemic occurs, the cards are shuffled then put ontop, makeing them apper agian much more quickly just a heads up.
also, FUCK YEAH! MORE BOARDGAMESSSS
I can understand the reason that some people would prefer an electronic version of this, but instead of making it simpler, it just becomes harder to understand why things happen.
Imagine this with the expansion. How hectic would that be...?
Hope you do more Pandemic is it quite fun
Funny thing is, there is a plague inc board game coming out soon
So Corona saw them playing this and was like: 👀 👀 👀
YESS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!
GG good try it is a hard game. Using movement of traveling was a game changer of direct and charter flights
More i love this game
This aged like fine milk
I love this game!, and I love to see you play it hehehe, Hope you try playing the board game "Dead of Winter".

I'm pretty sure you can only give the card in the city the card is so you give the Atlanta in atlanta
luv your gameplays, keep it up :DD
I play this game (physically) quite a bit. It's brutal sometimes how chance just...messes with you.. Seeing this digital though, I quite like it.
Little did they know
I'm actually here because of the ad and we're actually in the pandemic.
This game is hard. I would never say it's easy. Once you understand the way the game works then what you need to do can be straightforward, but actually winning is difficult because there's a lot of RNG involved.
In fact I'd say the game is harder with more players, though also more satisfying if you can pull it off.
Can you have two researchers? Because if there was two researchers you could do the exchange but it would be more difficult
Unfortunately only one of each role
Could these games be updated with new coronavariants, out of stock vaccines, and crazy President Evil? New DLC coming soon... if you are alive to play it.
Hopefully they have the medic, you almost can't survive without them XD
Love the majoras mask 😍😍😍

I nicknamed this game Coronavirus: The Board Game.
Ooh cool
This game seems very strategy and luck based... oof

Valiant effort y’all but... “Researcher: *Gives* cards easily”
Lol yuuuup
Why did they put Essen in Norway?
This is before the real pandemic happened 🤪
wow cool game
foreshadowing
Recommended.
Can you guys make a tutorial of this game? It's very complicated and i'd like to be able to follow along better! Also tips and tricks for playing it with friends so we can try and win!
A third of Europe just died
Loving this!!!
When you watch this in 2020: mmmmhh mm I wonder how long its going to take to cure covid 🤔
yeah therw has definitely been a theme of death
how ironic
Do more !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve played the board game version of this
