Flag runs with commentary

007 · **Joined:** Thu Oct 02, 2008 1:42 am **Posts:** 889

YO. I have dedicated my repcom career to flag running on engine. It's what I do best. I have learned the ins and outs of running it on engine. I have been asked by several people in the community on how I go about running. I am deciding to record myself as i'm flag running with commentary about my decisions I make.

Note: This is my very first video. I did it on xfire so the quality is low. I have already begun editing my 2nd video with fraps.

I would like your feedback on what you like/didnt like.

Also, would you like to see my failed attempts when running, or just the good runs?

And; Would you rather have music playing in the background or just me talking?

I understand i'm not very skilled anymore, so please keep the comments of my fails/badness off the forums.

I'm not really making comments about your badness or fails here, but...

No wonder I was never 'good', cause I don't toggle or use other stuff like that.

Yes because toggle is everything. It's not like 5 years worth of practice does anything for me. So if youre going to just critique my play style, and not even answer a question, there is no need to post here.

Apparently I didn't phrase it correctly

I meant I never realized that people really did use toggle and CV (I'm not accusing you of anything, or implying that it's bad). I'm just saying that maybe if I had tried them, then I might have been better. I meant nothing negative at all to you, but was rather talking about myself.

Nice video, it's cool to see the game from a different players' point of view. I think you should have both good runs and bad; the bad runs let you show what not to do or what you could do better in certain situations. As for the music I barely noticed it, so I have no preference on that.

This video had some good points I'll be keeping in mind next time I run, looking forward to the next one.

I find it somewhat ironic that you lost both matches. But props on the intuition for making these.

I BLAME THE DEFENSE. But thanks man.

I was also thinking about just making a flag run/cap video only. Just have like a flag cap montage with my run included.

Looks good. Music is fine. Nice job.

Think we need a proper truce clip in there, though [PUPPY]

I think the way you have it is better than that. Make a video on how to play offense, not just how to run. Getting to the flag and pulling it at the right time is just as important as how you run it, I'd think. In your video you talk about which way you're approaching the flag and why, and about spawns, which is really helpful. A flag running montage would be better to show off optimal runs and how pro you are, an offense video would be more for informing other players.

Agreed.

How about some HD?

My latest one. Post what you think, and what you would like me to talk about more/less. For example how the spawns work
