Orangeskye Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 This is my first go at a pvp video. Forewarning: the video has dubstep over it, so if you don't like dubstep I would suggest muting the video. I was valor rank 56 at the time of the video. Thanks for watching and let me know what you guys think and any tips you want to give me. -Orangesky of Domination on Dreshdae Cantina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyAl Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 my only tip is use music that doesnt suck yea yea, you said it was going to be crappy music and to just mute it, but who wants to watch a muted pvp video? pick music thats got more mass appeal next time and youll get more people willing to watch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangeskye Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 Wasn't aware at the time that dubstep music was going to recieve as much hate as it has, in the process of making another video; however, I haven't decided if I wanted to do a "live" commentary or do a commentary explaining my actions and how I think in a WZ. Thoughts? -Orangesky of Domination on Dreshdae Cantina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yescek Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Dubstep is awesome, haters gonna hate. Annihilation doesn't prove a damn thing. You wanna impress people? Do just as well, but with Carnage. Pre-1.2, THAT is impressive. Edited April 6, 2012 by Yescek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangeskye Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 I don't enjoy carnage, at all. Not because it's less "effective" than annihilation, but because I enjoy the play style of annihilation much more than carnage. If you enjoy by all means have at it. Come 1.2 I will most likely stay annihilation but i am definitely goin to give carnage a go pve wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heraseth Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Annihilation doesn't prove a damn thing. You wanna impress people? Do just as well, but with Carnage. I have to disagree based on my own vid in which I found carnage did very well, granted its a Q and A video to comments and mails, but if you just want to see carnage perform against everyone else in a match then feel free to check it out without the volume - That being said i think you did very well op and it showed some solid play. The music choice did ruin it quite a bit for me but thats not to say zomg dubstep, but more the actual choice of song. I don't think any song that repeats lyrics like *ginger - insert curse* would be in general well received, just my opinion and I'm well aware music is subjective, but that being said I'm also not sure what audience you were aiming at.

atreyuz Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) The quality was good enough. Decent match, but it is more of the same. Tons of video like this one, ESPECIALLY annihilation specced. that said, I do not enjoy full match videos. Mostly because in these kind of videos usually only SOME of the fights are actually worth watching. And so there is too much "boring stuff." Also you went a bit too much "im gonna use the music I LIKE". Yes, but you are making a video for others people too. Try to use something that a larger audience can find enjoyable...

Herblaw Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I like Dubstep with PvP... Ignore everyone who says otherwise because it goes with action no matter what....you getting hammered or you kicking some rear. Nice video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? -Orangesky of Domination on Dreshdae Cantina dubstep is very much "love it or hate it" music, and the people that hate it just wont watch im not saying to you need to go full on main stream overused generic song #12 ... but something a bit closer to main stream should at least be tolerable to the people that arent actually fans of that type of music as for the commentary idea ... in a plain old pvp video, with the intention purely to entertain people, i would definitely stick to music instead of commentary, just something a bit more mainstream-ish commentary should be for instructional videos, imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You broke 300K in that vid with Champion gear. Right on. Thats what i'm talking about, THAT is impressive. Everyone posts huge numbers as Annihilation which is par for the course at this point. Carnage, even just due to the fact that not too many of us roll it, is far more impressive. On top of the fact that all those bleeds are Internal damage and thus don't get mitigated NEARLY as hard. Carnage's attacks are mostly kinetic and weapon based, thus heavier targets take far less damage from even our hardest crits. Best one I ever got was on a freshie in blues, nearly full BM and my Gore buffed FS hit for JUST over 5k. Carnage DOES do very well, I know from experience. The fact remains though that it's MUCH more difficult that Annihilation. its really not that impressive carnage doesnt suck I know that Carnage doesn't suck, but have you EVER seen a Carnage Marauder break 400k? I haven't. You may have, but you have to admit that it's damn rare compared to all the crazy-number Annihilation videos/screenshots.

Or is every Huttball game you play a 5-5 nail-biter that takes up the entire timer? I'm not saying you can't hit 400k, I am just saying you don't do it regularly in Huttball. The games simply don't last long enough to constantly score 400k. Every now and then? THAT, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying you can't hit 400k, I am just saying you don't do it regularly in Huttball. The games simply don't last long enough to constantly score 400k. Every now and then? THAT, I believe. That was exactly my point. It's uncommon for me to break 200k as Carnage, let alone 400k, but that's because of a few facts. 1. I spend more time doing the objective and trying to WIN the Warzone than DPS'ing, thus lower numbers. 2. Almost the entire Republic faction on Vornskr is in solid Battlemaster. 3. The Sage/Shadow/Trooper plague is RAMPANT, though that's true on most servers 4. Faction imbalance forces a metric ton of Huttball, again felt on most servers but still an important point. 5. Voidstar is the only warzone where doing nothing but damage is even remotely practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaltie Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I enjoyed it but as most people have said, regardless of how amazing it is Annihilation videos are a dime a dozen at the moment. Don't get me wrong I love the Ann playstyle but I respec'd to Carnage and am actually really enjoying it, especially in PVE with Gore + Ravage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he was rage spec. The typical spreads on my server for BM Maras is like 200-300k during a game. even on voidstars. IDK perhaps my server is just more objective focused than others. my best with carnage is ~ 340k. and that was with a 57:1 KD and awesome healing in a VS match. idk - i'm valor 67 and i've never seen Marauders on my server put up the kind of damage that ppl on here say they do.

Perhaps it is your server. My server has some very good Marauders who put up some very scary numbers. I find the biggest factor in my damage is usually the amount of healers on the other side. My damage is pretty constant, and if people aren't getting heals, and die quickly, my numbers won't be as high. However, if the team I am going against has 3+ healers, this tends to happen... http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/5352/screenshot2012040218005.jpg (LoL @455k and only 12 kills) http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/8409/screenshot2012040616332.jpg Edited April 10, 2012 by PenoNation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
