Subject: Need Honest Opinions.

My logic is undeniable.
the.dredwerkz@gmail.com
e-mail me about anything.
Don't send me group invites.

For the most part, the music's out of time with the visuals, so i gt the feeling in my head when the grenades will explode, but every time they are slightly delayed. I don't particularly like the music, but that's opinion more than anything else. Lastly change your video settings to normal rather than widescreen or record and post in 16:9 because it's distracting thinking man that should be shorter.
And as a note to the other guy bashing the vid (Mr Drunk Lamo)[Spelling?] I though my best montage ever was one that showed me getting an awesome kill then a totally bulls*** death.

8/10! EDIT - gave 8/10 due to lack of editing.

I liked that you didnt put any button combos. Nice no-scopes. Sticks were meh, but it synched with the music.

FINALLY SOMEONE USED ANNA MOLLY by Incubus!! Id never thought anyone would put that great song in one.

Very nice job.

Well first I suggest that you play some people who are better. Get your rank up to at least a thirty and then make a new montage. You also need at least some BXRs or double shots. All the best montages have some of those.

I'd Rather Be A Smartass Than A Dumbass

That montage is fairly good and worth watching.

The only thing I had a problem with was that apart from the ghost snipes and the triple kills the other scoped snipes weren't really montage worthy.

Still a fair shot at a montage.

The editing and everything was fine but maybe you should also play more MLG customs, where there are no guests and where everyone there has to be good. More skilled than the people you were playing.

Moonlight............Don't listen to the negative people giving you stupid feedback. Unless your walshy or the orge brothers etc...you aint gonna get decent feedback. The negative comments here are from people who BUM off the pro's and who are...............Wish they were's ( as i call them ).

No button glitching, nice snipes, good sticks, multi kills, decent gameplay and overall a decent quality video. Nice job........I tend to stay away from montages like this as i prefer montages of fun, like people getting angry, saying funny things etc....but this one was quite good, i enjoyed it.

Lol, double kills with a sniper that you took an hour to line up? Single sticks? All in training or some other playlist with randoms? Mediocre at best. 5/10, because I liked the music, even though you didn't sync the footage with it.

You can't stage matchmaking, and everything is luck to people who can't do it themselves. I normally avg a few sticks a game. Communication with your team mates is a great thing, listen to them and tell them what is going on.


Excuse me, but did I ever directly insult YOU in my post? You shouldn't insult me.
Also, no, you cannot stage matchmaking, but can you really destinguish in a video between a custom game and a matchmaking game from a video? No, so unless you have t3h pr00f, it's staged.

I wasn't directing that to you. I never said you couldn't. All I said is that people who think it is luck normally can't do it themselves. And you can normally tell if it is matchmaking or not. One, you can look throw my games player. I don't play custom games. The only thing I use custom games for is to wait for my team mates to get on. 2ndly, you can look in the bottom right corner and see the game names. Although some people might use default settings, most people use MLG settings and naming their game MLG Slayer.

Proof please.

If you're looking for an opinion on your editing, I must say, its bland.

Watch this trailer my friend made. keep in mind, this isn't even a full montage, and look at the work he put in.

RIP Halo 2.

Pandemic, that montage trailer is beyond over-edited. It's so absurdly over the top that you can't even clearly tell what's going on half the time. Looked like a few good kills in there and they'd be much better without the over-editing. Also, the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen were lame in Walshy's montage and they're still lame now. There's no good reason to cut off a significant portion of the video. Sorry if I sound harsh, but it's true.

That's the point of a trailer. Its just a quick shot, and nothing's really clear. he doesn't edit his montages like that. He doesn't speed up clips midway. The point is to almost leave the clips a mystery. especially with the actual montage coming out pretty soon. he does trailers differently than montages.
