Made it to 17 seconds... musics too awful, i would mute it... but just knowing it's there bothers me.

thats ok troll, wasnt expecting anything else than crap from u ur not even a pc player

and ur a dead metal guy, talking about music choice.. oh my unless u start listening to something other than some thick headed braindead mutant who got something stuck in his throat while having an Epileptic seizure banging his last 2 braincells to dead i dont think ur the one to jugde any kind of music ^^

Quite boring montage, too much TV missiles, besides most of them were normal kills, nothing special about them.

Next time use music without vocals or at least have in-game sounds

yeah i know, most of them just regular old kills i had laying. i have alot of diff recordings with other things than tv too, i just though i would make some diff montages instead of mixing them all up. but yeah it would maybe make it a bit less boring if i did that

it was mostly to learn vegas pro allso, the other day was the first time i opened this program, now i learned this much and is able to produce an movie like this, and work my way up from here

actually the music isnt my favored one, i just tried to pick something mainstream since i doubted anyone would listen to my gangster rap or hardcore psychedelic music.. ill consider it for next time.. i dont think using ingame sound would work very good, first off the recorder doesnt record my sound, so its only the pilots voice u can hear, u would only hear half words since i cut so much in it, and then comes the effects who would mess it even more.

:e hmm,. 3 other guys i showed the video too asked me for name of both tracks right away cause they liked em, im not saying they are that good but i cant make all happy when choosing the music,, atm 3 guys happy 2 guys not ??? what u guys do to please all people

thx for a real answer some stuff i will think about next time

Good for them but this isn't about if music is good or bad, it's about overall montage, not even good music can save boring/bad montage.

Shoulda make it way shorter if it's mostly about TV missiles.
It was just too repetitive with a lot regular kills, editing was okay, no need to go overboard with effects.

e: on PC you can record in-game sound without voice, even if you're talking to mic.

yeah sure, i woulndt mind changing the music i just dont know what kinda music it should be then, most of the bf montages i saw had this kinda mainstream music in it thats what i choosed after. if u got any good idea's trow em at me

i dont know if u saw it to end. at around 6-7 min i have put in some longer videos where i havent cut in it but speeded it up so it woulndt get so boring, i think i will make it more this stylewise next time, hitting 1 tv can be easy, hitting 15+ in row on moving choppers is something else,

i allso got tons of long range chop kills with tanks and rpg's n stuff, i just safed that for another montage, the next one will be alot better

thx for ur input dude

I see lots of words, but all i can read is; WAHH WAHHH WAHHHHHH BOOOOOOHOOOOOO WAHHH WAHHH.

Judging by top 5 montages by view count, there's only 1 with similar music and it has way too much shader and color effects. All of them had in-game sounds too.

I'm not huge fan of montages anyway, because they're mostly full of lucky or right time at the right place kills that were recorded in long period of time.
Try making multitage, with kills from different weapons/vehicles.

Might as well use that BF3 music, but it's quite overused imo.
Lets just drop whole music argument, ppl have different taste and it doesn't go nowhere.

the truth hurts, i know





okey, well i havent seen those i think, ill figure something out

ur right, with tv and tank shots it can easily be made to look that the player is way better than he is, by having few lucky shots here and there. like my video etc, thats why i put the longer ones in at the end to show that i can do this many times in row not just 1 time out of a whole round, i would say the first 4-5 shots is approved, they are hard to make at that speed and angle, the next 4-5 and ones like those shoulndt be there

for next time i could make whole rounds showing that i can do this again and again, and ofc alot of other cool stuff. i just gotta learn some new things in vegas pro first, since i might hit 5 tv's right after eachother and then nothing happens for 2 mins or i get shot down, noone wants to see that in normal speed, and its waste of space / upload-render time

:e np man, u gave ur opinion and im taking it with me, i can take criticism as long as it isnt as stupid as newsporg
