Some things that stick out in the 0.5 promo, compared to other trailers, color adjustment to a really cold tone, improved contrast (sometimes extreme to good effect), audio mixing where the song gets ducked by ingame sounds (very effective), the different parts of the music go well with what's going on in the clips and it has a kick *** song to begin with. The flashing white transitions look nice too, you see that alot in music videos.
To make an awesome .8 promo, you should not copy .5, but keep things like color and audio mixing in mind. Most clips you see, look just like regular gameplay.
For .8 we need a really bad *** teaser.

No one wants to copy v5 man. I would rather it look nothing like the v5 trailer. I just want bad assness!!paco wrote:Some things that stick out in the 0.5 promo, compared to other trailers, color adjustment to a really cold tone, improved contrast (sometimes extreme to good effect), audio mixing where the song gets ducked by ingame sounds (very effective), the different parts of the music go well with what's going on in the clips and it has a kick *** song to begin with.

-When your done playing all you want to do is watch it one more time and then play PR.
EDIT: Why does everyone keep posting what made the .5 trailer good? I know what made it awesome and i didnt ask

hi,
the Problem is to make this Trailer befor Release. So i think there are two Ways to make it.
1. Only the Devs and Betatesters make the Film befor Release and the Community cant work with them.
2. The Devs open a SignUp Thread for the PRTournament Guys, thats the only Way to go saved, whos becoming the Build of 0.8. I think one Week befor Relase. So we can make the Film with a massiv Multiplayer Action and good Fightscenes.
In my Opinion, a Promo Video only works when it goes out one Week befor Releasedate with a small News about the Release to all the News/Communitysites in the World. So u can go save all the Players read it, see it and wanna get it. Bu this Plan needs to be good organised, and i see the only Way at the PRT.
Also remember its very critical for the Devs to give the new Build to everyone and i think, when they wanna do this, they have a big Discussion about Safety!
But after the release you dont get the Mass of the Players for the Video. Every Clan can make a Video after Release. Im interested for the awnsers about my Post. And sorry for my bad english, i try to give my best )

I agree, if there is going to be a trailer made it should be released a week or two before to build up anticipation(also giving the average n00b time to read the manual and read up about the game ).

Why? 0.8 release is a ways off yet, and why have trailers for the trailer?
