Well I got bored last night and wanted to edit something. Started at 1 am and finished at 5:30 am,

It's probly not as good as what my trailer would make it out too be. If I got the right music to inspia me to do something good. That would have been awesome but meh.

Its just music and clips put together, no real editting what so ever. Song choice was random from my collection.

Enjoy - Download - 140MB Rightclick save as.

I made this for pure entertainment purposes. Not to be rated. But I'm still open to comments and such. *looks at nessy* Also nessy, if there are any clips that may intrest you for your "community vid" the pm me and i can send you what ever. But if not then ah well, I'll have to keep playing then :D

Enjoy

One of the best montages I have seen on these forums.

You had a lil clan v clan footage there, even tho i have never heard of either clan. No shields sucks, try not too put that in montages, also most of the players that you killed were already near dead.

Was alright, but not as good as many that i have seen.

I've seen much better, no offense. But it was still very, very 1337.

If anybody rates this a perfect score of 10/10 then they're retarded.

I've really never understood the concept of a montage. To me they're pointless; a montage is a gathering of certain parts in recording where you "own it up." This means someone can record 60+ hours of footage and compile the good parts into a 3 minute video. Needless to say, the person can suck big time and yet people will believe him to generally have "skill." Films that show the whole match and depending on the gametype you play influence my opinion, not some montage where only the good parts of a match are highlighted.

Ah, but let's not argue over symantics. In the Gaming Dictionary™, a montage that is created on a competitive game such as Halo often dictates that you are showing off some sort of skill. Whether it be sniping two guys with one bullet or launching that warthog to the other side of the map.

What the general masses believes in or not, I'm not going to blindly follow it. Why do you think I don't do montages? :P

I'd like to see it, but there's one problem. I'm running out of space in my hardrive. Do you have this montage hosted in some video-hosting website?

Though I respect your unwillingness to conform and to believe everything you see and hear, I find watching montages rather enjoyable. What is a game, after all, if you don't enjoy playing it? Watching other players play can show how they play, reveal techniques and tricks, their weaknesses, their strengths.

It's fine if the whole purpose of the video is, "Looky! Explosions and cool tricks I pulled off!" instead of, "Looky at my skillz!" You can learn much more by watching a person play a complete match then you can by watching a montage. I was going to create a F.E.A.R. video displaying the awesomeness of the game, but, unfortunetely, for some unknown reason, Vegas video wouldn't recognize F.E.A.R. recordings from Fraps...

That's too bad. Hey, tell me if you can get that F.E.A.R. video done and send me a link, okay?

F.E.A.R. is pwnage. Anyway, I don't mind "Looky at my skillz!" montages. It's true that you can learn more by watching a person play a complete match, because a montage tends to only show them getting five kills in a row with fast and short edited clips, so they're really meant more for entertainment. Montages are still leet.

I'm not here to show off anything. Or give away style of play. I prefer not to release full games of clan match's. Magician's keep their trick's secrets. I like to try do that as well.

But people like me and others do enjoy watching these types of video's.

If you want to watch a video that's not a montage then you might like this one I made insted. Clicky

Iggwilv, if it is hosted on a site then by watching it you are still downloading it.

Aga, maybe some montages do try to show off skills, and yes they can be taken from alot of footage, but some montages clearly show some players as having more skill than other.

Not to boast, but take mine for example. All my clips were from matches, no public servers. And the kills I got were of a very high standard, very few players could get those kind of kills, especially in a match so this would indicate that the video is taken from a very good player.

BTW mega, is your clan any good?

Yes, Nessy's montage was quite pwnage. I hope to be as good as him, one day, or at least some shadow of my former self, when I used to pwn like it was nothing.

Well, in our small community. Yes we are very good. But Compared to the rest of the world I would have no idea. We don't vs anyone out of Australia because of the lag/latency issues. We could try if we wanted too but then we would have to put up with 300 ping.

Maybe you could meet halfway. Looks like you guys would need a server in Pakistan. Maybe the US Army could set one up in Afganistan.
