Recently I've been doing some gameplay commentaries on Youtube to sort of help out some players that might not be that familiar with MLG or Halo in general as well as improving my game by forcing myself to understand the mistakes i make in certain games. These first few videos were chosen because they were short, and I made some obvious mistakes as well as did some things right. I'm currently experimenting with different video capturing settings, and using the built in mic on my mp3 player so voice quality is a little less than I had hoped, but it isn't too bad. Tell me what you think. YouTube- Pit CTF Commentary YouTube- Narrows TS Commentary Also I am looking for videos from other players to analyze and do commentary over. 4v4 MLG games where you don't go extremely positive or negative, but place somewhere in the middle of players in the game would be ideal. Also videos between 5-10 minutes work best. Feel free to submit full game films to my GT: SMGstrings or simply link them in this thread.
Not bad. The commentary was pretty (for lack of a better word) Monotone. I think you should try to add some humor to the videos without trying too hard. like YouTube- Modern Warfare 2: Search and Destroy Invasion Knife Only (MW2 Gameplay/Commentary) guy. This is Cod mw2 i know but he makes the commentary more interesting. I think it would be cool if you did commentary on other peoples. Good work though.
I would like to see more elaboration on the decision making process. What would an alternate route be? How would it effect the game? In regards to the spawn system. Emphasize why top-mid is important and also tell why pushing too much in a base can be a bad decision.
I actually really enjoy videos like these. Personally, I think I have a pretty decent BR and Snipe, nades etc.. but I just lack the teamwork skills that could make me great. Videos like these help me out a lot.
Thanks for the input guys. I'm actually working on a commentary for a friend of mine and will be taking all these suggestions into account when making it.
