Nicely done, you have a lot more patience than I do ill tell you that.

Nice video, 8/10 for a amateur trailer. Mic quality could be improved tho it takes away from the feel a bit.

Let me draw you a quick diagram: What you want to do is to get that to a "regular joe" level. Good luck!

My 2 cents: Nice quality, looks like your Dxtory settings are set up well and your render settings provide a decent VBR (Even though youtube has been butchering bitrates like crazy). You left in a lot of just running and messing about, and that really makes it drag on. People would rather just play the game themselves then watch someone do the entire process. If you watch videos from some of the mainstream youtubers out there you will see they usually cut out a hell of a lot of useless footage and usually they have a "mission" or a "goal" not just random aimless running. This is just my analysis of it, in terms of the videos I usually see being posted here and on reddit, it is definitely up there in terms of overall quality.

Gotta get that quality up, also i'm not really sure what classifies this as a "montage" its just one version of dayz...

Does that mean you are able to record? I have been looking for someone to help me get multi-perspective footage. If so send me a PM.

Episode 6 is up. Enjoy.

Welcome to the YouTube scene! What I'm going to say next is simply MY advice, I'm not going to sugar coat it or baby you so If what I say offends you then I'm afraid your not ready for the harsh troll filled world of YouTube. First, I know you mentioned it but DEAR LORD why is the aspect ratio 4:3?? First impressions are everything, and I would NEVER upload a video if I thought it wasn't going to at the very least sit par with the majority of the mainstream gameplay videos out there. Second, Your microphone isn't the highest quality but it will do for the time being. I'm not sure what brand or style it is but I would recommend a pop filter to eliminate the breathing, and the Bs and Ps. Thirdly, to be frank its really boring... 90% of the people who watch dayz videos, play dayz. They don't need to know what the icons are, or how to eat a can of beans. I understand what you are trying to do by teaching people, but as A first video I wouldn't recommend it. People like action, explosions, tities, and humor (Not necessarily in that order). Make good use of cuts, and transitions. The less "running simulator 2013" the better. Lastly, be prepared to make this something you dedicate and fair portion of your life to. Your subscribers are like puppies. At first they are all cutsy wootsy and give you thumbs up and praises. But after a while they start to expect more from you, and are easily numbed out if you constantly upload uninteresting videos. The more they grow the more they will demand, and if you don't deliver, they WILL find someone who does. I wish you best of luck, and I hope you are able to solve the technical issues before you upload any more videos.

I feel like I just watched a 80's snuff film...I'm not sure what effect you're going for but if its to make me feel slightly squeeze, you won. On a positive note, getting Arnold Schwarzenegger to narrate does increase its overall production value.

Fantastic, gives me a justice boner just watching it!

His name was Jesus, and he was killed by...all of us. Seriously tho his name was Jesus.

Thanks dude :)

Not long just very high quality, almost capture quality. I used Dxtory for the majority of my recording, which provides me with avi files as well. everything looks amazing until its actually uploaded. then shit hits the fan.

Ya I encode it as a WMV at high quality VBR, still gets destroyed by youtube.

I will definitely give that a shot, at this point I am willing to do anything

That rifle will be a legend among zombies.

I like the idea of using them as a melee. Throwing would def be a plus.

I don't think there is anything to solve, the server you are in obviously is bugged. Try something else. The fact that you are writing off the whole mod because you aren't capable of critical thinking, makes helping you a waste of my time.

Cool vid, Just a few tips if you want to succeed in what you are doing, maybe get yourself some more subs, is to: Bump up the quality of your game, I'm not sure if that stretched out look is caused by your video render settings or perhaps your screen resolution and 3d resolution are not matched up. You want to up your render settings for sure. especially if that is the cause of the stretching. You should be using a variable bit rate of atleast 12mil-18mil. Other than those technical issues its entertaining and your mic quality is at par with most uploaders. Subbed.

Hey guys, I am wondering if anyone knows how long it takes on average to get your support ticket looked at via the support.dayzmod.com client area. Better yet, how long would something like changing an IP take? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the information Bone, appreciate it.

umm.. Not my IP the IP to my server... I have just recently moved my dedicated server to a new rack, and the ip range has changed, so I am trying to get my new IP address whitelisted so I can run my server accessing the public hive.

I know this is sorta irreverent, but I can't seem to get the image in my sig to actually show up as an image. I used the built in add image function in the text editor, and even tried using HTML and BB code but nothing seems to do the trick... The size and such is all correct so is there something im missing?
