Greetings,

This is my first official montage for Halo Combat Evolved for the PC. All of this footage was taken using a trial version of fraps, hence the little insignificant benchmark, and was edited using Vegas 5.0 trial, then Windows Movie Maker to reduce file size. A good chunk of editing is the syncing the game play with the music, with a several special effects, to highlight cool kills and such.

This Montage features game play from THREE school days and last Sunday; however, I didn't play numerous hours nonstop (Life is outside). Nothing is staged in anyway, shape, or form, so please don't say it's impossible. Granted that a FEW things are lucky, but most of them are shows how I play.Feel free to distribute the video to people as long as you give me credit for it shall be most appreciated!

Please rate it, hate it, whatever, the main thing is to enjoy this short, 4:24, 61.4MB Montage.
I recommend downloading it so you can see the video in a bigger picture whilst the quality is still quite good!

OMG, SAVED-TO-HARD-DRIVE'D!!

You see, this is a perfect example of a perfect montage. One that is so good that it makes one consider if he or she should bother playing Halo anymore because they would never be able to catch up in skill

That montage was awesome, simple as that. If this montage reflected your skill I'm pretty sure that I'd get my ass handed to me on a golden platter with Tobasco sauce if I played against you. Excellent. Music, editing, gameplay - almost everything was flawless. If I have a complaint it's that I wish it was longer. :)

Overall, awesome. A good montage that puts me, and the vast majority of players and their montages to shame. Thanks for lowering our self-esteem, you magnificient bastard.

Apoc, stfu. He used different music as well, and big deal, what if he hasn't seen the other montages posted here with that music? You have to excuse him for his ignorance, it's not really his fault. And there's nothing wrong with using clichés just as long as you pull them off right.

...!

I'm going to go hide in a corner now. I'm going to hope that you never find me. I'm going to barricade myself in with three layers of titanium of gun turrets. Of course, with those MAD SKILLZ, you'd probably just poke it and it would fall apart. -blam!-...

Seriously though, that was incredible. Like Master Kim said, I only wish it were longer. That was awesome editing. And those grenade moves, that was like watching the most precious ballet. In high definition.

I fear you. What's your Halo username?

How did that happen? I mean Mythica has a good buffering speed now, they said they fixed it; however, if many watch it at once, I guess that's what happens. Try again later or check your internet settings.

Cool montage man, your graphics are exactly the way mine are. So you got all this footage from Custom Edition? I'd like to play you some time.

Not from the custom edition, I should've made that more clear, I just felt like putting CE there lol. Just regular Halo PC online.

Ok, I'd still like to face you one day. At least there won't be a "H2V CE" when H2 is released.

one of the better montages ive seen posted on bungie.net

if you think you can handle it you should join a good clan. Nice graphics.

Match footage is always more impressive than pub footage as people wont be afk lol.

nice 1.

You see, the people you played against were all what I like to call pub-nubs. Playing a public game is different from playing a KW, and Nessy's montage was all KW footage. That's the only downside to your montage, you weren't necessarily playing against people with skill. But whatever, it was still pretty leet. And I feel your pain, I get accused of cheating all the time. I take it as a compliment. :)

By the way, I saw your Halo 2 montage as well. This is what I have to say:

OMG, SAVED-TO-HARD-DRIVE'D!!

would you mind if i posted this on klanwars forums and posted the link here?

Just to see what they say about it, to show you the difference in expectations.

EDIT: Re read your first post and there we go.

Awesome montage man. Sweet musics, sweet editings, and holy crapwtf, you can make killtaculars with just one sniper clip, you are truly a pro. xD

9/10, it would've been a 10, but I didn't like the parts when you split screen into two at times, it got sort of hard to see whether you killed or not.

Actually the Killtacular with a Sniper those guys weren't AFK as it may look....The first guy did shoot once and then slowly moved his barrel of his sniper at which point I killed him. I just killed the second guy 5 seconds before the first guy and he was shooting and my teammates where near him so I guess he might've went AFK at that point.
