Couldnt watch the proper version because it kept making my VLC / Media Player Class crash even with the codecs
but the stream was still really good, nice movie twist :)

why can't they make games like this anymore? How do you fuck up Wolfenstein?
Great video twister and appreciate the hard work and effort over the many years of putting it together. All of the players in this movie and true old school professional gamers. Ahh the glory days... makes me want to play rtcw again =)... nah let it die!

No competition/teams in Wolfenstein after beating mamut on mp_bank for TGL. We're going to play a little l4d2 (probably for fun) and hope to get into the brink beta. If ID Software ever releases rtcw-live you can count me in! :D

Really well done, just sad that the developers of the new Wolfenstein managed to fuck it up that hard. RtCW ftw :-)

Brilliant brilliant movie! The action spoke for itself! People can say what they like but nothing can be compared to RTCW back then.
That was probably our concord gaming moment!

Eventhough the editting isnt top notch, it isnt even need imho, this an epic movie, one I will certainly keep in my collection. Great work, hope this is the first of several movies.
Btw, did you go trough all the demos yourself? If so, respect :D

r u kidding me with this codec?
Both ffdshow and coreavc can't play it and I refuse to install utter shit such as the k-lite codec pack.

It's the latest x264 build =)
I heared of two others who seem to not be able to run the movie - really don't know what may be causing it since ffdshow encodes it just fine for me. Guess you will have to watch the stream and I will see if i can encode a xvid version.

Well I must admit I don't know shit about encoding and decoding =)
As I said to ronner, I will try to make a xvid version tomorrow.

ffdshow encodes it for you? nice :P I think you meant decode. :)
I watched the stream. As far as vidquality goes, I don't think the latest x264 build would make much difference. You could've used a release before it that would play on vlc, ffdshow, coreavc etc easily and not have lesser quality.

ye decode :p
the newest build wasn't supposed to be less compatible then the older ones but more compatible - guess i was wrong there :/ and the stream quality is much worse then the actual quality btw.

I miss Warwitch's shoutcasts... Two dynamite defuse? Epic. Similar to the nade defense of the tower at the end of Iratus.

looking forward towards the next vid

great vid, but the sad part is - why such great game is almost dead? why rtcw is reinstalled on our pc's only when merlinatior announces new rtcw cup?
we keep ourselves alive with game not even half as good as RTCW and yes i mean ET...
sadly, ppl really prefer when games are easy and flashy...

- The config is not really my taste, prefer lower picmip and more realistic colours.
- The graphics work was ok, but not amazing. Not that attractive. (Banners, console etc...)
- Some scenes ended a little early.
- To me it wasnt always clear whether you were switching madly between different competitions, or trying to do some sorta progression, bit to do with graphics not being that clear, or not great work introducing all the different tourneys.
- I didnt think you did enough to improve on the two well known EPIC moments. CIV_AMBUSH, and the iN defuse. Needed to build to these a bit more or something, thats what i was expecting.
- Maybe could of done with some sorta frag counter, since your were skiping graps in sprees, and it made it a bit hard to follow sometimes. (wom sprees i noticed mainly)
However as I said was still enjoyable, some of the stuff was nice for a first full movie.

good movie
it's sad that we will never see games as good as RTCW, and tourneys like that quakecon to match it up :(
loved how at quakecon during shoutcast they used that alarm sound :D nice touch
compare pictures from 2002 award ceremony, people having fun, themed prizes
to latter ET quakecons, where it's all about bitches and guitar hero on stage
and to no existant ETQW-xbox quakecon...
gaming is going downhill (sorry for stating obvious)

thats probably _only_ good competitive FPS that is being developed currently
and it's almost a copy of a game from 1999.
ETLive, WLive
or I buy xbox after ET is dead

shit PC's (76 fps was the uberness) + game was out ~6months + 0.0001% cheaters
most of the dominating players had played a FPS title before like Quake - but not all as this wasnt just the early days of RtCW it was the early days of gaming really ;) especially this style

you're either good or not good at all, and besides the best players "from back then" were those who had played other games before (as you stated above) like quake 2 or quake, that's all!

far from it, reading the list of names I would say quite the opposite - as like I said I was pretty bad but shit on a few of them :P but out of those names even now there were some great players/teams and this was the only real quakecon for a wolf series (including the one infensus won) the ET ones have just never been at this level tbh.

This just sick, really miss this game back in theses days, the movie even made me shiver some times. Alot of good teams on the same level so every tournament was a close one.
Also this movie wants me to like make a tournament "oldschool vs oldschool" but I guess its impossible to bring all the old teams back togther just for one tournament.
Nice movie, and I still weep a tear everytime I understand that I will never experience such a gameand community again! Its like you lost the love of your life ;)

yup, I think 99% of people were dreaming of a CSS style game where we got a couple new maps but mainly polished version of the classic. That would have been a top seller too.. :/

Look I've got everything installed, going from k-lite shit to ffdshow & haali media splitter.
And yet it crashes all over the place.
I download movies in all kinds of formats every day and I *never* get problems. Except with your movie.
Don't get me wrong, I'm guessing this movie is epic, but please for the love of god, don't mess it up for people to make it unwatchable without the stream!
(this topic has enough people in it that can't play the file so it's not just me)

well as you can see in my replys I'm clueless what's causing it. I've let about 10 people test it in beforehand and none had the problem so I released it. Xvid version will be uploaded in 25mins.

That were some amazing times we had... Times when we still had no idea how to connect to the correct Wolf TV (1, 2 or 3?) and you were bound to who the camera man (or woman) was speccing. When we were working day and night to improve our strategy and where we would welcome newcomers in our clan with open arms and not suspecting him of cheating every single second. When you could still be proud of your teammates and look up to your clanmates. When we didnt discover xfire.be yet and no ventrilo or teamspeak was used.
Everything was fresh and gave us a whole new experience. The same ET has done for so many. Thanks for bringing that time back. Even for these few mins.
Sometimes im still proud of this community :)

I remember reading that teams were scrimming for 4 hours a night 5/6 days a week in the months prior to quakecons.
I used to love crossfires on mp_base upper by jail, medic rushes across the courtyard on assault, sniper duels on assault, beach n ice,
Miss playing mass-player depot too, always thought it was a shame it was never played on osp.
