conflict's tricks and tips

Is a video currently in the making. Do not worry ladies and gentlemen HOW YOU GRAVGUN GRENADES TO PEOPLE FACE??É?! is not the type of question being answered in this video.

Actually it's aimed at the already-pretty-good players to offer them new ways to play this game.

NOW i can already hear some of you ''LOLOL conflict isn't even that good like i sniped him with teh mag last time and roflcity'' Yep, ill give you that, im far from being mr snipeinator but i DO have some cool shit that i never saw anybody do. Most popular maps will be covered, don't expect to see 90 new tricks and strategies per maps as I don't even have the time to play for fun anymore (i only show at cal 4v4 now) and people have whored lockdown and LV long enough to know close to all there is to know about em.

Video will have narration (i'll do the voice or pick whoever wants to do it instead) instead of subtitles (because im lazy and rather edit audio files than sync text)

Sound exciting so far? Well it probably won't be, some of this ''stuff'' are nothing but smalls details while some others provide useful info.

Some strategies are damn cool but your opponenet might have watched the video so it might not work anymore? or you could expect them to know and use this agaisnt them? we'll see.

Got a class now.

Yes new stuff on lockdown.

Ah nice one .Con, sounds like a nice concept. I prefer the idea of spoken instructions than typed. But when it comes to explaining key press a diagram or something would be cool.

That would actually be a great video to help new players out with ptrain and bunny hopping, provided that you put in the shift key in there as well.

.Con, I do recommend that you perhaps put in an in-depth "bunny hop" section like that as well since many good players are being slowed down in their hopping by bad habits. Also, will this video be mainly about map-specific tricks or general game tactics/strategies/1v1/2v2/4v4 elements?

Alot of map specific stuff but their concept can be applied in any other map.

I will not cover bunnyhop.

I'll develop on how people react to different situation in general and how to gain advantage from it.

And more stuff, but i might just use this thread and update it on a weekly basis as making one huge video requires time, and I don't have alot.

And of course, the less obvious ones. Sounds nice, I could use more work on my tactics and whatnot.

Why does this make me wonder if there's something lurking in that statement?

yea i guess it's the only other viable option.

Man i wish there was a plugin for VDUB with a simple timeline like movie maker, it wouldnt require more really. and it would make VDUB 1000x cooler

must be something wrong with my files, even windows movie maker won't export it correctly, yet again, no error messages D:

I can send you some demos that i can record quickly so you get the point. Might even have to stage some but i want people to see what worked for me and what nobody else does.

I have been using some techniques to gain time or gain advantages over my opponents and I did not saw anyone else replicate it, so , i guess it will be a nice addition to the U.

ill PM you with a filefront link when it's ready.

Lost all my data :D sorry for not replying.

I have some stuf extracted and since ive got this new comp, ill proly dump it in movie maker, nothing that requires massive explanations anyway, you just watch it and you're like ''oh yeah i could try that sometime''

No release date or anything but i did recorded new footage and something's on it's way.


Might do mini DM the 2nd.

I got another ''where are you''-ish situation and i've found a song i,d use....and new footage... hint hint.

Time's the only massive stopper atm. I'm curently in toronto for 5 days and im on a craptastic laptop so i can't do anything right nao.

I'll get a week off when i get back, if i don't work much expect to see a finalized and enjoyable product by the end of july.

Cheers
