Hiiiiiii
day one of asking matt to play clash of clans also known as coc
01:26 "Ever growing roaster"? Who's bringing the chicken?
@@VacuumIamhe played that game for charity if you do not remember
"forty thousand" hehe, you haven't played a lot of warhammer 40k, have you XD
Imagine being laid off from your job and when you ask what you did wrong, they tell you "Oh, nothing, it was just easier to fire you than connect you to the internet."
with how some companies are i wouldnt even be surprised 😭
"Lack of network planning has really stressed out our 1 IT guy, and he requested that we fire some people to recude his workload."
@@PepperKatt I can confirm this does happen. It's easier to lay people off than fix problems.
I may or may not have heard that when I worked in IT-support
@@MagiRemmie
People after all are some of the highest expenses in a company.
The whole thing at 10:42 is great.
Matt comes up with a solution, to get yellow cables to a yellow desk, but he rejects it because it goes through a dark patch. So he rips it up and goes around the dark patch, and through a second one. Then, he thinks better of it and rips up that yellow cable *and* the neighboring green cable, rerouts the green cable, then puts the yellow cable exactly where he had it the first time. Then, the moment he's happy with it and starts to look away, a yellow station shows up on the dark patch, cutting off the cable that was going to the desk he spent all that time wiring up.
Luckily for Matt, the desk that popped up in the dark patch was the same color as the wire it interrupted, but like... dang. You couldn't write this stuff.
You literally just did
@@feha92 "You can't write this stuff" is a turn of phrase, essentially meaning that it couldn't have been scripted. Usually, it means that something is so bizarre, ironic, and/stupid that it's outside the realm of human imagination, but it can also refer to things that are simply very unlikely.
So, I didn't "write it" because it's a thing that happened independently of me: I just wrote *about* it.
@@gaysarahk I know. But you *did* write it.
ps: rather than merely a nonsensical turn of phrase, since it seems you aren't aware (considering your attempt at explanation), "you can't write this" actually refers to writing as in a fictional story or movie script. As in (and this is another way it's often worded), 'you can't come up with this', since to write such fiction you would need to come up with it yourself.
It does not actually refer to chronicling events as something impossible to do.
@@feha92 That's... what I was trying say. I'm sorry that wasn't clear.
Takes a special kinda person to argue semantics and then completely agree with the person they're arguing with by giving the exact same explanation they were just given, by the person they're arguing against, in a different wording, while still trying to prove the person wrong. What were you even trying to accomplish by making yourself look like a douche?@@feha92
This office really needs to learn what VLANs are.
This is RCE, not RIT
Also WAP's. Individual routers for each area hurts to see XD
What does pie have to do with it?
I was coming here to say just this...
They also need to learn to run their cables through the fake ceiling. That way water coolers, flower plants and all that other rubbish doesn't get in the way
Matt: Fires people creating vacant desks.
Matt: Is shocked when new people are hired to fill those vacant desks.
17:18 "You've got cables right there, just plug into an ethernet port. What are you doing?" As a former IT tech, it really do be like that sometimes lmfao
"If I remove a project, everything I've connected will be messed up!"
Me: **Stares vacantly at the Pause button in the corner.**
which looks to cost £1000
@@cailco100 He had more than 10,000 at the time.
Does the pause button have a time limit? Like it only pauses for 30 seconds, if not then the game might become too easy.
@@conorstewart2214 There's no time limit, but you buy only a single use each time. Very useful for exactly the situation here - when you need time to plan ahead, or just make a lot of changes all at once.
@@conorstewart2214 Sorry, CZcams's been censoring my comments at random lately, so I'll repeat: There's no time limit, but you buy only a single use each time. Very balanced.
he can't just say "around the outside, Eminem style" without giving us the Guess who's Matt rap song about cable management
"there's a game about quid" has me keeled over laughing.
Man, this looks a lot like mini motorways for people on a different spectrum. I LOVE it
"If you do bad cable management, you're not going to hell. You're going to cable management hell! You'll be doing cable management for eternity!"
You're going to the hell where you must fix something in a mess of cable management. Every single time you do it it gets exponentially harder
Worse, you do troubleshooting on messy bays for eternity, good luck finding the right port ;)
@@ignoreme-ck2iw
The devil hands you some traditional headphones he had in his pocket for a while, except the cables are 10m long and there's 4 pairs of buds in there.
Been T😊here IRL
network engineer: "JUST USE VLAN!" XD
this is the moment where Real Civil Engineer became Real Network Engineer
I wasn't ready for Matt the techpriest who fight for the machine spirit
18:05 "Who keeps hiring people on this company?" just sent me!
Nothing I love more then anxiety inducing games.
pay £75 to move someone's desk? this is how you move someone's desk:
BILL
Uh, I'm going to have to ask you to move your desk. Now, if you could
get it to go as far back against that wall as possible, that would be
great.
MILTON
No, no, because I was, I was -
BILL
That way, we'll have some room for more boxes and things we need to put
in here.
MILTON
No...sir...
BILL
Uh (sees the Swingline) Oh there it is.
MILTON
No. No.
BILL
Let me just get that from ya. (picks it up) Great. So if you could get
to that as soon as possible, that would be terrific. Have a nice lunch,
Milton. Bye.
He walks off.
MILTON
Ok. I'll set the building on fire.

Office space :D
Interesting to see a game using the mechanics of mini metro/mini motorways. I figured the next game I saw like those would be like mini airlines or something with the same dev and revolving around connecting airlines. Would like to see the mini devs make more, airlines, boats, buses, there are a lot of different similar but different games they could make.
And this is why we trunk and VLAN!
The introduction of VLANs would probably trivialize the game. But everything would be so much easier. All the colors could run over the same cables.
As an IT guy this game gives me anxiety.
Matts editors put up with a lot lol
There are a lot of things in this game that clearly take inspiration from Mini Metro and Mini Motorways. I love it.
A Real Network Engineer would employ vlan segmentation with trunking to manage this madness
I love me some organized cables in a server rack 💓
I love how he never pauses to collect himself
costs $1000 to pause
@@DeathsShdw ahh makes sense
@@DeathsShdw Its not like he was spending his money anyways haha
I'm weirdly annoyed by how unrealistic this game is 😆.
Even if you wanted physical separation between the networks of the different projects because of extreme security, mixing the workplaces like that would immediately undo the security benefits. Not to mention the fact that you can easily fit multiple cables in the same duct, the floor is a ridiculous place for a wifi AP and a real office won't redo all the cabling for each new hire 🤣
This game is like mini motor ways but with wires.
This company's annual employee record will be mental lmao
This has a Mini Motorways feel to it. I wonder if it was made by the same developer.
This is the kind of work I used to do. Working nights refilling shelves is much lower stress.
Bro said get back to work XD
Glad Matt has joined the cable installer fam.
12:40 "I don't want to stint the growth of anyone"... so anyway I started firing.
As an electrician, I can confirm this is what the inside of your walls look like.
Someone should teach this company about VLANs.
Probably earliest I've ever caught a YT video IIRC
14:23 Interesting how there was a four way intersection instead of a rotary traffic island here...
The spaghetti must flow
This is like mini motorway😊
The stress involved is just too much for me hahahah
Seeing Matt stressing over cables is surprisingly entertaining 😆
Dude this is the 3th game I buy since you demonstrated it haha
Well thanks Matt on guilt tripping me to clean up my desk area and do some proper cable management
This cable guy game could be the new mini metro
I haven't finished the video yet, but I'm surprised you haven't used the "Pause" thing with how much money you had! As always, keep the videos coming. PS, I could not stop laughing with all the subtle bits you put in this video "round the outside".
I’m so glad that Matt made the Eminem reference because it was the first thing I thought of when he said “around the outside”
They made my job into game. Fascinating. By the way, you put that AP wrong :D
Reminds me of mini motorways!
Matt laid all that cabling down, chilling with 12 bands in his pocket and didn't think about using ducting until the end?
That's the real corporate way to do it. xD
Wow... you went VERY hard with the advertisement this video... Bravo
Hearing RCE mention Warhammer was an auditory flashbang
Im playing this exact game irl at work right now xD
reminds me a little bit of mini motorways in terms of "workflow"
I was skeptical why I'd play this since it feels alot like mini motorways, but the finish is pretty satisfying
2:21 I love the pettiness of the editors on how to say router instead of router.
Why did I read router and router with a different pronunciation
This is anxiety inducing.
Real life networking is nothing like this.
i'm pretty sure the sponsor will pay you double for that enthusiastic sales pitch
When you're fired for being in an inconvenient area, and then someone keeps hiring you, think off how upsetting it would be to be trying over every single cable and you still don't have Internet...
The very Suttle around the outside emenem comment. Very nice xD
9:56 Funny, "redd up" means "clean up" in Pennsylvania, even though adding more red in this case makes things messier haha
I'm really feeling my factorio belt trauma right now.
Love you RCE
The hardest part of this game is figuring out what colour they require and who is connected right now.
What a great game!
For some reason, I was expecting a Tube train to trundle through
I love how excited RCE got when he saw £
Shirley an Engineer like you could show us some real life cable manangement tips?
Easily one of my favorite games I've found through this channel, and they finally dropped the full release!
Nobody look at my cable management >.
This game kind of reminded me of "Good job" and now i want you to try that one 😅
Same
I missing the "cable" Bridge Review
I'd like a no timer version of this.
Just "figure out problem don't run out of budget".
You got this bro. I believe in you
"It was chaos." Yeah, welcome to IT. It's always chaos here.
Matt really laid it to his editors today
g'day mate its 3:18 am but just remenber to sing this in a tune.
As a colourblind person this game is an absolute nightmare
As a former IT tech, cable systems installer/maintainer, and field technician this game infuriates me
As someone who has had to do cable installs, you hurt my soul right now.
I imagine this is something IT has to deal with for a videogame design company. And can just hear someone cussing up a storm about the server spots.
I think you forgot about cable ducts that run underneath the floor
with the rooter router conversation I always thought until I was about 25 that it was a rooter when it the internet equipment and the american way of saying it was for the power tool.
This hurts my head lol
once he said "round the outside" I was thinking Eminem: "around the outside, round the outside" before he said it and then he said it and im like... "nice matt, just nice!"
NRB playing Clickport and RCE playing The Cable Guy on the same day, is it national network engineer day?
Matt: The game deigner has never heard of VLANs!
Root = Rooter (Plumbing tool)
Route = Router (internet tool)
As someone who's actually done cabling for a building this is not how any of that works. It's all up in the ceiling/floors and in the walls. If you want a desk far away from the wall then you are getting internet through the floor.
1:58 is the real end of the sponsor
all i see in Mini Motorway but with internet
"I've found a way to connect to the Internet.... Im sorry, boy."
When he said "Round the outside" and my brain went "round the outside, round the outside" and then he said it.
4:47 😂😂
"there's a game abour quid"
- RealCivilEngineer 2024
HR must be the biggest department. Every week there are massive layoffs and hirings
Wow this game is very stressful
Matt: * freaking out about how to get cables over to new areas *
Also Matt: * forgets about cable ducts, then immediately considers the intended game mechanics cheating when he remembers they exist *
I too suggest kicking out people over fixing my cables at work. 😅
Real civil engineer, challange: Speedrun both series of rovercraft under 2 hours and 30 minutes ;)
The cable guy with Jim Carey?!
