Here is my 3rd halo pc montage, Armageddon-Kryptonite.

This montage took a LOT of work due to the amount of editing and technical problems with Windows Movie Maker so it will not be anything like my past 2 montages, please take a look.

Tips are appreciated just keep them informative and respectful please.

Really nice. That must have been hell to make because whenever I try to move clips around and add slo mo etc. it wigs in Moviemaker. WMM is such a pain to work with. I loved the flag melee at the end. In my opinion you should have ended with that it was perfect.

I liked it, but you obviously have a lot of room for improvement.

Do not put clips of no shields games into your movie. No shields = no skills. Don't put it in unless you end up getting a dozen kills in a row with a headshot from each bullet you fire from your pistol, or you end up getting three headshot no scopes with one bullet twice.

Learn how to trim your clips to save up space and so each second is more about you pwning noobs than roaming around the map. It's important because you want to take out all the parts where you miss your shots. Nobody wants to see you throwing five grenades at a warthog and missing them and then finally killing the driver with a rocket launcher.

Music was nice, I liked the ending credits. The editing was meh, but it shows you know how to use it. Hopefully you'll make a better montage. It's certainly better than my videos at least. Looking forward to own you later.

Yes iggy it was hell to make because after I had finished the montage WMM was unable to save it so I had to redo the entire thing. I did end with the flag kill. The last few clips were bloopers for the credits.

And thanks for the advice Kim but I only had a couple of no-sheild clips in there and I don't remember roaming around the map a lot...just a little. And as I remember it, every time I attacked a hog I killed it with one nade and a clip or less of pistol never using a rocket. I did tons of editing in that montage. Also, no-sheilds games DO take skill because if you don't kill your opponent first then your gonna die in a matter of milliseconds.

EDT: The no-sheild games in Rat Race had extra health on so it was almost like playing with sheilds.

Mmm, looks like you mastered the lag more than anything else. A good example of how messed up the netcode is.

I notice you dont trust anyone to kill others, many times you naded your own guys to get a baddie.

Apart from that, better than anything I could do.

Yea some of the people I played with werent very good so I didnt really trust them to do a professional's job. lol. Once I threw a nade and my teammate walked into it to kill the guy I chucked the nade at so I got a betrayal.

I'm not saying that no shields can't be fun or that they don't take some degree of experience to play, but I'm saying that it's simply just a boring twitchfest.

Yea I was aiming for multi-kills but halfway through the making I figured it would get boring without some snipes in there.

I was thinking about it but then it distracts from the gameplay so I didnt.

And Thank you. It is nice to see my work appreciated.
