he slows down parts of it, and instead of a dramatic effect, i thought my video player was suffering from frame rate drop. that wasn't cool
THE END SUCKED. what the hell? it just ended with a kill frenzy, and centre court is sitting there waiting to be killed. i didn't expect the montage to end right there, it was really abrupt.
generally a very good montage, with some obvious effects taken from walshy and titan's montages. overall really good though, i enjoyed the introduction immensely, and it has some nice killtaculars on full teams (SV namely). he had a few flashes that were pretty original, namely the UI that showed someone getting sniped, bringing up the BR HUD, infrared silhouettes, etc.... some people enjoy less editing so you can enjoy the gameplay more, and while i feel this is true, i like effects, because part of a montage is to show off what the editor can do. i had no real trouble how and who he killed and in what manner he killed the person. i think after walsh's montage, montages are starting to look more and more like CS 'tages/segmented videomercials. i think its a good direction because stuff liek this would be impressive to look at/cool to look at from someone who's never heard of MLG, but plays halo.

took the words right out of my mouth, if i wouldve tooen my time to tpe, thats what i wouldve typed, but i think that they over hyped it to much, i thought it was gonna be like trocities all over the place but it only had 2 frenzies, so whens Gun Sh0ts second coming out?
