too much slow motion

once the rpg hits you should really play it at just under real pace and slow down certain important bits

the thing is once the RPG hits, it took 2 seconds before everything exploded/died
(exept one guy that miraculously survived 12+ shotgun shells...)

I didn't even have the time to empty my clip on full auto

but I agree I exagerated on the slow motion...
I will try not to in the next chapter ;)

Some actual in game sounds would be nice at certain points. For example the sound of an RPG firing, or the bike with the AK as it went across the street.

Yeh it looks very nice but more ingame sounds and bit too much slowmo.. But otherwise amazing and I'm hoping for the best with the stuff we did yesterday ;)

I need to agree with you, but the rest is fantastic !!!


When it's finished, make a full movie with all the chapter togheter, it will be a nice PR "comercial"

I agree with others on the whole slowmo thing. Some fast action with shaky cam would look better, even if you had to repeat certain bits (which is a ***** in Battle Recorder due to no rewind, but still). Also, walking around while looking through binoculars looks kinda... odd - probably not something that should be used in the future.

Besides that, it looks awesome. I like how it turned out.

Actually, this wasn't bad for a start.

Don't worry about it greasy, this was fine.
Obviously the next one will be normal speed.

My only input would be ... upload to DivX Stage 6 as well as Youtube... its a much higher quality streaming service.

Agree on the slowmo issue. Also, I'd like to see a close-up of the face of the insurgent with the binocs on the roof as he lowers his binocs.

Other than that, nice effects and a nice movie! :D

Yeah closeup when he is lowering binos.. That would look like he had an evil plan in mind.
I really love that scene when the hummers are moving up the main road and you see them in binos, around 50 secs I think, it looks so cool! :D

Oh and I justed watched that Extraction Night Sample, someone has to do a heroic PR movie with that music :)

Not bad! I was in the lead humvee, but yeah, like some said, a bit too much slo-mo. Slowing the actions down just a bit probably would have been better. And you didnt credit me :(
