Mettle II - Trivia

First of all, I d like to say that I am really thankful for the good comments so far and pleased that people enjoyed this movie.

About Mettle II, I tried to give the movie a crude feeling, to give an "ingame" feeling and to enhance the frags as much as possible but to keep it in the player's POV.
This movie is also more personal than my previous projects, I just did what I liked with the music and colors I did it for my own pleasure without automatically thinking what most people like.

Here's a little "trivia" to show what I had in mind and to point out some important facts.


• The colors try to give a glaucous mood to the movie, so does the music. This gives the movie an homogeneous flow throughout.

• The choice of cameras are very curious and similar. They give more information, a better view of the action, but without showing more than what the player actually sees.

• Popups were not filtered (there isn't only my frags shown) so that people can sometimes understand what is going on and for the "ingame feeling". I also could have left ammo and health on the cfg.

• There is significantily less airstrikes than my other movies (the 3 men ones are there because its all against the same clan :p)

• The quality (1000fps feeling) was chosen in 2009 (year I did the intro, and kept it till the end). You can notice that the gun pov is different because it was recorded without image.exe.

• I actually got a pbban (6 or 12 months or something) by doing test clips for this actual movie. I had this program running and minimized when I connected on a server to do a 3on3.

• Soundtrack was changed 9 times during 2008 to 2011.

• The compression took 60.5 hours. The file was 387Mb for 9:08 minutes without the audio tracks.

• Most of the frags (smg ones) were done as field ops.


• The popups in the middle are all refered to the title of the movie and tries to keep the spectator in the mood/theme during the whole video (some kind of abstract storyline).

• The players that get fragged the most in this movie are Belgium lioco & Estonia Night (4 times each).

• Features frags of zZz like every other ET movie.

• At 2:00, <o/ Colonval is xAv.

• At 4:38, opprobrious is emorej.

• At 5:44, ohzor4 sends a rifle-grenade in Sight's face.

• At 6:34, emorej jumps in zerender's artillery.

• At 7:58, zerender, with the gold, jumps in xAv's landmine.

• In the outro scene versus poland, team estonia were joining to spec and steal the mouK tax.

• 6on6 > 5on5


• This is probably my last enemy territory video that demands a certain amount of effort.

was a nice movie
nice work
Quote... to give an "ingame" feeling ...

considering there are only few scenes with ingame sounds, you didnt rly try that hard to give it ingame feeling
Ye true, I guess the reason is that I don't really like ingame sounds, the only reason i put them were for the hitsounds.

I personally love watching smg actions with ingame sounds, especially those manually added which filter away disturbing ambient sounds and strenghten gun sounds with hitsounds (when its made skillfully its awesome, but unfortunatelly many people have tried and failed at some point so it didnt sound as natural as it should). The best example is -Max- with his effort in mAx chapter 3 and Requiem.
