OFP videography

[redface]

although I dislike it, I have to agree with cain2001 to some extent

I want to stress that I have seen some very fine contributions so far, and I want to encourage all people to contribute to this thread, but so far a lot of contributions to this thread have been footage taken from regular gameplay, shot from 1st person view, showing the hud and all. Footage like that mostly just shows your rambo-capabilities, it doesn't really show what OFP is capable of ...

Screenshots visibly shot from 1st person have silently, but steadily been banned from the OFP Photography thread.

The least we could do in this thread is to mention whether a video linked is 1st person (real-time footage) or a scripted-directed cutscene with multiple camera positions, units, ... .

BTW: because ofp is rather CPU-intensive, it is extremely difficult to record a movie on harddisk without stuttering. For most people's system, it is already difficult to play OFP without occasional stuttering ... If cain2001 wants perfectly smooth cinema, I think he should stick to other games or to the cinema.

It'd be nice to have something like Red vs Blue for Flashpoint, small 5 min episodes with like 6 main characters or something, and then have extra's in the background walking around and doing stuff.

smer, of course I wasn't talking about you, but I trust that everybody will be able to make the distinction between what they like and what not.

Let me stress: I didn't say that 1st person material is bad by definition, it can be craftily edited into a very good movie (especially now with Kegetys' dxdll, which allows you to remove the hud.)

let me add that I have to disagree with the tone of cain2001's intervention, especially considering the amount of time one puts into such video projects. We are still a long way from the OFP:CP thread's policy (no comment without own picture), but it would have been fairer to debate this issue on the basis of one of your own movies ..

@Placebo , yes but made a good example of a top quality movie.

@Smer4Sure CS sucks, sure how can u belive in god. We all belive and think diffrent accept that. Smer4 that movie was "cool" good music, nice effects ect, never seen anything close to that in ofp!

Around 100.000 play CS every day, 500-600 in ofp

For those who find this movie with no qualities at all, you shouldnt be near movie editing. This guy is close to a Guru. Well my point is made, dont think this thread is about to bitch about what we all think.

Placebo, plz delete all non refering to movie threads

I happen to like Counter Strike.

So does every other millionth person in the world playing it still. No big deal.
