How 2 Survive ROBLOX Official Wiki

## About

How 2 Survive is a survival game based off of Booga Booga CLASSIC and Barren. You obtain materials, craft armor and weapons and build tough bases. When you die, you lose all crafted gear, but keep your resources. You can make a clan and wage war on other clans, earn money and buy things from other players.

## How 2 Play

In H2S, the main goals of the game are to survive, join or create a clan and be a productive member of said clan. It is recommended to join a larger clan when starting out, so that they may assist you in growing to be more powerful. Visit the game here: www.roblox.com/games/6365693328/How-2-Survive-Alpha

## How 2 Raid

Raiding is one of the more aggressive parts of the game. You attack an enemy clan to steal their resources and loot their corpses. The safest method is to attack with a well-equipped clan, but if you attack alone and win, you will earn much more loot. For more info, visit Raiding.

## News Article of February 17th, 2021

Hello there, I'm CmdConnor, creator and owner of H2S, or How 2 Survive.

After finishing the entire map and most of the decoration, I have realized that the map doesn't fit the game. In other words, the **entire map will be redone**. This may add about another month to the release date, though all the major scripting has been done.

Friday Night Dumps

***Friday Night Dumps*** is a miniseries within Podcast Like It's 1999 covering films which did not necessarily deserve a full episode. The Dumps episodes were intended to be released as bonus episodes on Fridays as opposed to the normal Wednesday release. Dumps episodes resumed in December 2021 with a special Wednesday dump of Held Up.

## Description

"Welcome to Friday Night Dumps, where we are going to take quick and dirty looks at some of the worst, most Rotten (less than 25% on Rotten Tomatoes) films of 1999.”

This miniseries was intended as a way to quickly get through some of the lesser movies from 1999 and was meant to be done quickly and without a guest. To that end, Trippin' (one of the films covered in the dump) has the shortest runtime of any movie covered so far at 23 minutes, even though the guys were generally positive about it.

The miniseries ended after 4 episodes but was revived almost two years later with Held Up although it is not described as a dump within the episode itself. The Out-of-Towners, Trippin' and Love Stinks were all released as full, regular feed episodes despite being described as *Dumps* episodes during the episode itself.

## Theme Song

The regular theme song by Jaan Kittask is replaced by Turbonegro's "Welcome to the Garbage Dump"

## Possible Dump episodes

Films listed as possible future dump episodes include *Elmo in Grouchland*, *Friends & Lovers*, *The Sex Monster*, The Adventures of Sebastian Cole, At First Sight, Bats, The Bachelor, The Astronaut's Wife, *Foolish*, *Komodo*, *Just a Little Harmless Sex*, The Mod Squad, Love Stinks, *Just the Ticket*, The Thirteenth Floor, Universal Soldier: The Return, Twin Falls Idaho, Twin Dragons, Eye of the Beholder, Inspector Gadget.

Several of these did not end up being covered on the show. A larger list of uncovered films can be found here: List of potential films.

## Semantics

Phil often referred to "dropping a dump" which Kenny objected to, preferring to think of the Dump as a place to take the films rather than the films themselves being dumps.

Godzilla 2000

"167: Godzilla 2000 w/ Anupam Nigam" is the 235th overall episode of *Podcast Like It's 1999* covering the films, television and pop culture of 1999, hosted by Phil Iscove and Kenny Neibart. The episode was released on April 14, 2021.

## Description

"With Godzilla tearing up the box office (and our small screens) for the first time in three years, we thought it was the perfect time to cover Godzilla 2000, Toho's response to the critically panned American outing, with screenwriter, and all around Godzilla expert, Anupam Nigam.

As the second reboot, and 23rd overall production by Toho, Godzilla 2000 sought to revitalize the franchise, and bring it back from the critical pit Roland Emmerich left it in. We talk about the subpar English dub, the state of kaiju flicks in the 90s, and the evolution of Godzilla's design. We also take some time to discuss the recently released Godzilla vs. Kong, and how both monsters have been treated over the years. Do these films fare better as mindless slog fests, or as thoughtful, slow moving cultural reflections? Listen in as we try to sort out our thoughts on this larger than life franchise!

Find Anupam at: twitter.com/anupamnigam"

## Kenny's Intro

"Hello, and welcome to Podcast Like It’s 1999, the podcast where we talk about the films of 1999, **from inside Orga** here in 2021."

## Historical Information

"It has razor sharp teeth in a gargantuan mouth; claws that can cut through steel; a roar that echoes back through the centuries; dorsal fins that resemble crimson lightning bolts; and fiery breath that incinerates everything it comes into contact with. Soon, all in the creature's wake is utterly destroyed, and a terrified Japan can only wonder where this monstrous beast will next appear. Godzilla, king of the monsters, is back."

*Godzilla 2000* was screened on 11/9/1999 at the Tokyo International Film Festival. It made $30M worldwide. It has 57% on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and 54% from audiences. Sony Tristar spent $300K to license the film and spent $1M to re-edit and dub, and $10M in print and advertising. The film grossed $10M in North America, lower than the hoped for $12M.

## Trivia

Godzilla 2000 technically had its American premiere in 2000 which would seem to violate Kenny's stated rules for choosing 1999 films.

Kenny pulled out a selfie of himself with François Chau, the American voice of Shinoda.

This episode coincided with the theatrical release of *Godzilla vs. Kong* on 3/31/2021.

## Description

"Blast from the Past, huh? Isn’t this whole podcast a blast from the past? How’s this for a blast from the past?

The year is 1999. Brendan Fraser is a movie star. In fact, he’s high profile enough that two Academy Award winners (Christopher Walken and Sissy Spacek) play his parents. How’s that for a Blast from the Past?

Alicia Silverstone is also a movie star. A studio has enough faith in her to ground a high-concept movie about a family who spends 35 years in a bunker and emerges on a bar-turned-cult-hangout. How’s that for a Blast from the Past?

The movie features the following prominent plot points: baseball cards, swing dancing, an adult video store. How’s that for a Blast from the Past?

Everclear, Dishwalla and the Squirrel Nut Zippers are showcased on the soundtrack! How’s that for a Blast from the Past?

Brendan Fraser and Alicia Silverstone’s characters are named Adam and Eve. How’s THAT for a blast from the past?

Join Phil, Kenny and Netflix social media coordinator (and Brendan Fraser stan) Erin La Rosa on this week’s Blast from the Past podcast."
