Plays of the Week 57 Released!

[FINAL]

POTW 57 (http://potw.thecatacombs.net/POTW_57.avi)

---

Here it is. Took me a little while longer than expected, but now its here!

Anyways, editing wise it's nothing special. Put some glow here, some color level changes there, and viola. Theres some A/V sync but to be honest, I just really wanted to get this POTW out since there were certain individuals hounding me for days on end. I didn't really rush it persay, but I coulda definately taken more time on it o-O.

There's a few people I wanna thank for submitting there footage and they never got in. Mostly soulcutter, vendicator, and boslim. I woulda definately used your stuff if I had time to add on a second song, but I didn't :(. Maybe whoever is doing the next POTW will be lenient towards using old clips :x.

Anyways, go download and comment!#(!

EDIT: the song is Death From Above 1979 - Romantic Rights

[Nomad]

downloading!
I'm not really expecting to see my submissions in there, but you never know...

Edit: Awesome, I did make it in! donn's nyx move was much better than mine, haha.
Nice avi! The custom textures are pretty sexy and not obnoxious like some I've seen in the past. I liked the goofy exagerrated bhop soldier intro, it gave me time to get used to the look of everything before jumping into the clips. As was mentioned, the tag/name method was clever. Good job overall, I'm not sure what you could have done better with more time :)
What song was that, by the way?

[sani]

bout time juj master, i mean goddamn. maybe all of our exotic cyber talks took away from your time to get this done? JUJ nonetheless! I will dl and watch in about an hour when I get home.

[discreet]

clearly i outplayed everyone, im the soldier on 2fort btw, clearly outplayed.

[Telos]

really nice, great job! Looked great too, everything was nice and crisp. Link to player models?


I also loved how you did the names and clans.

[44-]

ROFL FINAL YOU DID THE DISCREET ROCKET JUMP INTRO!!! AHHAAH,btw good potw lolz

[Ricky`]

I loved the music. It was badass. Good job on the POTW. I enjoyed every second of it.

[PSYCOSACK]

I had this avi WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY B4 ALL OF YOU!@@@@!@!@!!!
and yes, discreet submitting a rocketjump for potw and having it in the intro made this xTRA GOOD

[BlackThoughT]

downloading

edit: good job!
good clips, i liked the names/clans (way you displayed it)

only thing I thought maybe could've added were the flag logos, I like when those are up :P (only a little nitpick, was really good potw)

[HEMAN]

good avi.

Funny you mention that :P. When I was doing the final render *at 5am*, while starring blankly at the progress bar, I snapped out of it and said "Fuck I forgot flag icons", then I just said fuck it and went to bed :P.

Definately for my next one! :D

[Unfor]

Clear out your private message box on cats, final.

[Karms]

whos doing 58?

[FINAL]

Clear out your private message box on cats, final.

Done.

[speEED]

I haven't seen it yet but anything with death from above=win

[derno]

it was okay, kinda mad my play on ss_nyx didnt make it

[Ignatz]

gj

the titles were cool, also the overall look to the avi was very good, except for the gibs, too many for my taste

[Nirvana [Dragon]]

Very Awsome. Good job, a little too short, but still good. One thing the player name text was overlaying some players so it was hard to focus on the play in the begining, I think putting the text in an area that nothing is happening on would look better. IMO

[Mashi-Knight]

Whats the song title?

[44-]

as i watched closeley i saw that the first soldier had beef stuck in his teef

[FINAL]

Thanks for all of the comments so far :). I knew there woulda been some people mentioning about the names, and in retrospect I coulda probably uped to opacity on the clan names a little bit and added a lil feathered outline to make the names more readable. I'll keep in mind no one has the same monitor as me :P.

Thanks again!

[bowser]

not to be mean but that wasnt too great, it wasnt your video editing it was just the clips werent too good. Maybe its just me.

[Frag]

EDIT: the song is Death From Above 1979 - Romantic Rights

for you people who didnt catch the edit

[BoSlim]

not to be mean but that wasnt too great, it wasnt your video editing it was just the clips werent too good. Maybe its just me.
did your submitted play get in?

damn you final! Hopefully I can get my plays in the next one, I dunno why demogarage didn't upload them properly :( Good job overall, interesting song, kinda catchy.

[ArmoredBullet]

i agree with bowser :/

[shanked]

I really liked it, good job. k+

[Glacier]

I agree with AB who agrees with bowser. The footage was poo poo.

[Killian]

Ya I saw like 2 good plays and thats about it. But thanks for doing it, gave me somthing to watch.

[necro]

Good avi, good editing, song made my ears bleed.

[Aic]

No kaww sniping on congestus :mad: :(

[Ke-]

No kaww sniping on congestus :mad: :(
Yeah. Sniper clips are the shit, like Wonkas on bases.

[jabroni]

shit plays

[BoSlim]

Theres always people complaining about the quality of the plays, every week someone says it, but very few if any of the people who make a comment like that actually submit anything. If they apparently are making awesome plays night in and night out, then submit. Its fairly simple.

[bowser]

damn you final! Hopefully I can get my plays in the next one, I dunno why demogarage didn't upload them properly :( Good job overall, interesting song, kinda catchy.

i never submitted anything boslim, i dont know what you are trying to say.

[sani]

we don't want to see hw footage anyway

[Karms]

i do!

[bowser]

i havnt played HW in quite a while now

[BoSlim]

i never submitted anything boslim, i dont know what you are trying to say.
what i'm trying to say is don't complain about footage if you didn't submit anything ;)

[Glacier]

Look I submit things every now and then and you know what, when I submit things I make sure they are -at least- decent plays not some piss poor 2v2/pickup/gather that anyone and there blind steven hawkings/helen keller could pull off. Why do people submit 2v2/gather/pickup/newbie gay poo is beyond me. Look I tell you what I'm going to go pub real quick and pull off sextuple airshots on 2fort/24-7 that way there will be atleast something entertaining. brb 5 min

[donn]

Nice double airshot 44.

[BoSlim]

Glacier I agree I don't submit anything from pickups and even if I wanted to I never record that stuff anyways. I just record matches and I only submit if I have something I feel is worthy. I submitted 3 plays for this potw but my uploads to demogarage for some reason didn't work so Final never even saw them. I know that the plays were better than a handful of the ones in this potw but hey, if we all wanna see higher quality potw's, we all gotta submit our best stuff (hopefully from matches only).

[Jarek]

i might have submitted a coast to coast i got on nyx, but it didn't look as badass as it felt in game when i watched the demo afterwards. asides from that i haven't played a tfc match in two weeks thanks to byes/forfeits/etc :(. i agree that match footage is the only footage that matters considering for a play to be awesome it needs to be clutch.

[kaww]

nobody likes a sniper

[jabroni]

ya i watched that demo and they went for you more than the demo or flag :-|

[reins0r]

Thanks, but are those brighter models the same as in the POTW? I'm not sure if they are, but I appreciate the links.
