I very rarely say "Im friendly" anymore. I mainly try and start up a normal conversation by saying things like "Hi there. You ok?". The "friendly" line is far to overused by assholes who are too poor at the game that they need you to stand still so they can shoot you.

hehe yeah that's the usual response to any of my videos :)

This is why you shouldn't go down to the coast and kill freshspawns with your lovely military weapons. Your toys will be taken off you if you cannot play nicely. This geared up the three of us quite nicely.

You are quite right about using that music to better effect. I used to be a house/techno DJ for 15 years and produced quite a lot of my own tracks, so I know my way around a sound scape :) At the moment its a bit of an investment/reward scenario for me. Videos which I have put way to much time into have received about 100 views and little interest. Most probably because they were over 15 mins in length and people dont want to watch these unless they are invested in your channel and content. Videos which I have literally just chopped some scenes and added semi-appropriate music (without any editing) have been much more well received. Ideally I would prefer to spend lots more time on videos (both edits and music) but in reality Ive been doing this for over a year and nt progressing as much as I had hoped with building a community. I think there is a happy medium when I keep my videos sub 5 mins for now (until I build community) but also focus on the music side which will be easier with smaller vids .

Thanks for all the feedback Pilgrim I think I need some time to digest your feedback, which is always welcome I might add. I never see criticism as a negative as long as its reasoned and framed in a constrictive way. Can I just clarify, are you talking about the Fresh Spawn Justice video (minimal intro) or the Night Hunt video (longer video with the side scrolling black and white camp scene)? For the Fresh Spawn Justice vid, the music was just picked and dumped into vegas in its entirety (was just a quick 15 edit on that video, but I usually spend hours and hours editing the scenes and the music).

Looks like the old dsyncoroony bud

Thanks Ninja I know there are lots of folks who dont have the patience for even 10 secs of intro. I think I will save the old intro for longer or story driven content, of 10-20 mins in length, and just have the shorter intro for little clips like this under 5 mins. Always good to mix things up and see what sticks.

How was the intro to this video compared to my old one chaps? I know some people dont like intros. I would appreciate feedback if you prefer the new way or the old way (including feedback on the old intro music. Do you like it or hate it?) An example of my old one can be found here.:

Video Length : 5:30 Perspective : 1st Person Perspective Description : After spotting a player on NWAF, I try to hunt him down to hold him up after dark.

Second part of a 2 part series highlighting a day of crazy action and interaction in DayZ Hope you folks like it. First part is here if you missed it : https://youtu.be/ajFquzK1e9E

That's been driving me absolutely fucking nuts for ages now how YT does that to my videos. They look perfect before the upload. Tried loads of things to sort it (varying bit rates /antialiasing in game etc). I always remove "Smart Resampling" and select "Disable Resampling" for all my clips. Not due to the pixelation issue, but it helps with ghost frames bleeding though into the next frame during sequences with lots of motion. If you can think of anything else you changed, let me know please. Thinking of trying to learn Adobe premier to see if rendering on that helps. It drives me nuts.

Some fights are over in seconds.....some take hours and cover many towns on the map.

Hoping to have time to get the next part edited and pushed to YT over Xmas

Thanks Ding

Yeah your quite right. Its worse here in the summer :)

While aimlessly wandering the north on the Oldschool DayZ Hardcore First Person Server, I get myself into a lot of trouble and end up running for my life, but a man cannot run forever. Whether you live or die, eventually you have to make a stand.

Im a patient man. Rather make my shots count than miss and reveal position. Could have played the end slightly better though and I could have killed them all.

Yeah you are totally right Sofa. My tactics left a lot to be desired. After my firt kill, I should have left that area and taken up a sniper position from the Northern Hill above Lopatino. I just couldnt be arsed running anymore :) I dont think their aim was too sharp either :)

I think you might be confusing WOBOs analysis. The plate carrier and Press Vest are the only 2 chest items with Balistic protection, the others (vests/Chest holster) just provide normal clothing protection

Keep your food in your chest and mags in your backpack :)

You are completely correct. The majority of combat does take place at under 100m. I'm not suggesting it doesn't. If you want to be up close and personal, thats completely your decision. If you want to engage from 800m, that's your decision too. To come onto forums and berate players for playing the game their way is pathetic though.

Rags is just another of those whiny individuals who try to enforce their playstyle onto other players. As we all know, this is a sandbox game. People like to play the game in completely different ways to other people. The devs dont put hunting scopes or SVDs in the game so you can collect them in your tent and admire how shiny they look, its to enable whatever type of gameplay you enjoy. You want to snipe freshspawns from 500m? Rock your socks off You want to scope out cities from distance and countersnipe or take down people slaughtering freshsawns (my personal playstyle)? Go for it You want to run around town with a shotgun killing bandits? Have fun You want to live in the wilderness and have no contact whatsoever? Great I really get pissed off with assholes trying to force their own definition of gameplay onto others in a friggin sandbox environment.
