oh, songlist pls!
I enjoyed it :)
disliked one thing. i found myself looking in the left corner because i wanted to know who was fragged. so missed a lot of frags:(
Sick movie.
Best fragmovie this year together with ALNC movie. (learn to shoot fucking other noob moviemakers :D)
It was a sick movie anyway (psykotic) and should really win this year's awards (imo).
very orginal baggiez, amazing, clap clap clap
Glad it did, nice movie!

but it just opens and plays in my browser, can't download it
right click save as
tx mate :)
killing list increasing
good day
Why put a decent intro or outro? To make a better flow throughout the movie and to give a sense of closure, completeness, and it shows your dedication to your work. (And to make it look "pro" but most of you won't care about this last point so don't mind it.) But he didn't have time or doesn't have good and quick ideas? Sure it's better to edit frag scenes instead of intro/outro.
Why is it better to keep frags vs. randoms/unknows/mixes/fakes out as much as possible? Because it gives a way better impression at the end of the movie and gives more credibility. You remember better frags vs teams, and more importantly vs good ones, because the people watching can relate to these teams, like "oh yeah 3hs to fra-emorej and 2hs to fra-maxuh! emorej the EC silver and maxuh the cheater, they are good! This is a nice frag!" But if it's the only way to keep your buddies in the movie sure, go for it I guess. I just wonder how you can rate 10 to the content. It's good, but guys come on.
Why put music more appropriate to the atmosphere of the actual game, unless there is a theme or something? Well that's just my opinion This is how I see things, my honest opinion and I am very curious to see if people agree with me I don't see why the music choice gives this movie a plus, unless you like reggae... This is far from something like "Elegie" by fredd.
Why cut the popups at the right time? Seriously you have the ability to sync 5 bodyshots on beats during 1 second, but you can't be arsed to cut popups correctly?
Why don't I whine about the sync, the colors and the quality? I liked them.
This would have been the same feedback if everyone voted 1's. Though the fact that comments were insanely good, made me so disappointed at the end :<, but I hope my opinion helps more than it upsets.
the movie was in the same condition from march and i had no motivation or need to make anything more or distracting for intro and outro.
i myself am against the ideology of just having the most known(and i mean 'known' as that seems to new word for 'best' nowdays) players in the movie, because i find that boring and not interesting. i prefer entertaining frags over the regular so called ec-frags
for your taste; every song was sampled from classical or equivalent. theme of polarsoul was there also.
popups are cut just the way i wanted to cut them, with same amount of time, interest and dedication as syncing hitsounds. in this case its either the normal(default) way how you would have wanted them to be or just personal interest.
I understand most of your points (but we ll have to agree to disagree about the fact that EC skilled frags are less entertaining compared to regular ones).
About the theme, the prob was that noone knows what polarsoul is (or maybe I am the only one), but I guess the audience this was intended for was a Finnish audience.
For the popup cutting I meant that for instance (there are many times I am not gonna watch the whole thing) at 2:00, 2:04, 2:11, 2:23, 2:47,etc...... the top left text fade away after the actual scene has faded/ended.
I don't know what kind of comment are you expecting. Do you want me to justify why i "gave a " ag0n 7 9 9 9 or a overall comment of the movie?
If you want to explain my vote, well:
creativity 7: there isn't anything that creative or new at all right? Maybe with a "never seen" intro / outro i would have given a better value
editing 9: it's really great, even if in the end it is mostly a mp3 + hitsounds movie with few cams, the editing/sync is almost perfect, one of the best movies i've seen since i started playing et. Easly in my top5 or less!
Content 9: The frags are great, sync made them even better. Too bad they are not against the soo called "highskill/top teams", otherwise it would be a 10
Quality 9: x264 could have helped, few cams are not smooth enough (maybe record with more fps next time?). If it makes you feel better i have never voted a "quality 10" at any movie afaik. 10 would need to be something fantastic/amazing, with super colors n stuff, 9 is like the best!
No hard feelings? It's definitely a awesome movie, one of the best, together with Requiem; Fragarea 3; mAx chapter 3..
Either way, nice flow, music, frags n stuff! Congrats mate! Looking forward to the other movies!!
Finally something to watch.
Rlly nice work !
+best this year
- frags not that impressive
Sick frags & dito editing , I like
Big plus : Music
& doesn't work :D
missing WALLE's frags :/
Must go with this, also could have been longer! But i understand that one minute was worth of around 50 days so this is fine.
Varjohaikarat :D
Hienoja aikoja. :')!
nimi VARJOHAIKARAT ei varsinaisesti saannu eSport-sielua syttymään pelille ihan satasel vaan heitettiin varmaan pippeli-kakka-nörtti -läppää ventis jne.
tai sit vaan oltii paskoja ja tehä hyviä!
Like some people above says, I think the movie could've have been longer.
I liked the frags, but I think it might have something to do with the awesome sync up.
Nicely done ruipperim8. :)
e. wtf @ torspo frag?
AMAZING frags by sample & co
FUCKING AMAZING flow, playing with velocity of frags
INCREDIBLE cams, finally some1 do it good like me, requem and Max
GREAT looking radar, other maps too
U convinced me - rap music iz watchable with fm ;)
Peace, I hope its not ur last fm?
what about that one
you = shit and you haven't made a single good movie yet, stop acting like you're a good moviemaker
e: very good movie overall, since I like such hitsound syncing style(I also tried it when i was making nuggan's minimovie). but popup(some of them wasnt fading out when the frag scene was)/hitsounds sync(at some parts, but most of them were great) couldve been better.
really liked the music!
the only thing i missed was a nice intro and end:<
nice movie enjoyed alot !
gj Ruipperi!
song names pls :P
Very enjoyable ! :)
Expected something better anyways.
E: sync of the hitsound/music is very cool camflys are amazing
Amazing head shots!
Nice panzering Blindi :D
FIRST OFC METTLE II
-intro ( 30s for 3 texts )
-music ( only liked 1 or 2 synced action )
- some frags could be deleted
+ some frags
+ some sync
+ time of work ( add hitsounds one by one etc )
+ cams
expected something rly better after reading comment ( before watching the movie )
bit disapointed.
Quality was great, frags were amazing, sync was awesome and loved the music. Really enjoyed it, movies like this make me want to play ET :)
quality wasnt amazing, music went nice perhaps could have had full game sounds rather then hitsounds only.
well man that just like your opinion man..
Or thats what he always said when I insisted him to tell me why he denied 99% of my frags.
+ frags
+/- music
- no intro/outro
btw the voting criteria must be changed imo...
polarsoul - shostakovich riddim medley

tää se kait oli joo löysin
most of the frags were in GR KRP's home map then :D
Song list please ?
- Intro and outro could've used some more creativity. Feels like there's plenty you could have done to the music that was playing that would introduce the movie well.
- Cams had some good positives and negatives. Some of them show you've visualised what you want us to see quite well but I think they could have been executed a little better. Some of the turns aren't as smooth as they could be.
- The audio mix with regards to hitsounds and music doesn't seem to be consistent throughout the movie. On the first track the hitsounds are way too high in the mix and as a result there's a bit of a lack of atmosphere since you didn't include any of the other sounds. (On second viewing, it seems like you've only lowered the volume for certain weapons which ended up feeling a bit weird)
- Frags are all pretty good but I don't understand why you wouldn't use centertext. First time I watched the movie I had no idea who was killing or being killed as looking up in the corner tends to distract me from more important things.
- Colours are pretty good although on some maps, the players can look a little overexposed at times.
- The contrast in colours between supply and frostbite at 3:10 when it was flicking back and forth made it a little nasty.
- Music was fine. Didn't have any problems but the hitsounds really were too loud in contrast with the music imo.
- Quality was good but you should've sacrificed some more filesize to get a little better quality since people generally don't care about filesize anymore, within reason.
- Overall, obviously a well above-average ET movie with some good sync but nothing that took my breath away creatively etc.
Good job though. :-)
Music (soundtrack):
When it fits fragz (well, this also depends on editing style as well) and keeps you focused on action and its fast paced nature, I cant say anything bad about it. And this is this case, despite the fact I am not listening to this kind of music normally, I must simply say, when it works, it works :)
Frags:
I am not fan of big variety of skill involved in one movie, on one side there is sample, torspo, ensam... pwning shit out of top clans and right next to it there are actions where I dont recognize a single name. But I wont rly count this into voting since if ppl play against players of equal skill, it doesnt matter whether its med vs med or top vs top. Lots of headshots, nice spam and fast actions, thats all that matters.
On the other hand, there were too many single/double kills for my taste, certainly some more 4+ sprees would make it more impressive.
Editing/creativity:
I am not that kind of guy who would burry good movie under the ground because it didnt bring anything new. Actually as being pretty simple and often copying moviemaker myself and after many years of watching fragmovies, I must say its almost impossible to bring something brand new to moviemaking scene. Mostly ppl are influenced by others, and they just bring some new elements into their favourite style. I am personally really familiar with this style, I am using manually added hitsounds for couple of years already, doing velocity magic to play a bit with fluidity (many ppl dont like that as they may be distracted and it may break the flow of movie). And after seeing many ppl fail with manually added hitsounds, you did nice job to keep it as simple as possible, without leaving any noticeable blank space (often I saw in other movies muzzleflashes but with some missing shots). However, there is something that I didnt like, which is really important to me. I call it consistency, at the begining bodyshot sounds are noticeable louder than anything else but later on they are back to normal. Same goes for popups, I am making manual popups as well, but in this movie I sometimes got disctracted by popups which were disappearing too late, in middle of next scene. However, I marked one big plus in field "consistency" for you, you used hitsounds in whole movie, exactly the way I like it. I hate to see movies like Mettle II, when he does 2HS, he just puts hitsounds there, but its just random and you can say just by not hearing hitsounds, that some actions werent rly that special (I dont see a difference between action with 4 kills and 9 headshots and 4 kills with 5 headshot but 60%+ accuracy, I just want to hear ppl hitting).
Cam work was nice, but sometimes it was just too chaotic/fast to actually fully pickup whats going on.
To sumarize, I can really relate myself to this kind of style eventhought I can say you could have pay more attention to some little details (popups, consistent sound levels). But this is just my hidden shitty moviemaker which lives inside me speaking, and he is really obsessed with such details :). I also lacked some kind of nice intro/outro, didnt need to be anything fancy with shitloads of glitter and 3D, but nicer text with some nice background would be better.
Quality:
To be completely honest, I gave 10 just because I dont have resources to actually watch this movie in full quality, my laptop cant handle it. I saw it on stream, colors werent disturbing (but not impressive either, but everything was clear and crisp). But I may have take 1 point down for using XviD, this codec is a past and for such movies is h264 much more suitable.
Well,the quality of Your movie was okay,not the best but not the worst!However the colors weren't good between maps,it was more like contrast problem,it just made my eyes blur.
-Editing
I liked the style of Your editing.Nothing over edited or non-edited.
The sync was just perfect,after showing it to my master music expert friend,he said that the sync was absolute perfect for this kind fragmovie. You did great job at the music and syncing!
-Creativity
I must admit that you have creativity..
Then use it what god has given you!
However,the cameras were cool.
But I noticed the supply,where the camera flyed through the door,it not nice to watch it.
-Frags
Frags were okay,but didn't surprise me,because I had seen these frags already.
But now about the hit sounds.It was just terrible,I turned speakers off at first.
Just don't next time turn the hit sounds volume so high.
Overall I could give you high-five!
Thanks.
probably the best cams i saw apart from R3 Trailer
synching is nice at most parts. content is great (although im not a fan of those revive kills).
i only miss an intro and outro. the frag part looks and feels like something i would make. but to a different music :P
e: adrus, eSrael... good old ET
