GTA IV: Extremely lucky throw, or extremely skilled? - General

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clmgdw6T3Lc[/media] It is in 1080p, but YouTube still wrecks the quality a bit. Also, if you have tips for camera, let me know. It was my first time using them.

Lucky

how can you base that on skill, it's not like anyone train's "Grenade to helicopter" procedure's, luck my friend

If you pan the camera there should be a reason for it. You panned the camera way too many times for no reason.

[QUOTE=MrTwicks;26425471]how can you base that on skill, it's not like anyone train's "Grenade to helicopter" procedure's, luck my friend[/QUOTE] You'd be suprised.

This should be in some action movie.

[QUOTE=MrTwicks;26425471]how can you base that on skill, it's not like anyone train's "Grenade to helicopter" procedure's, luck my friend[/QUOTE] Even though he clearly stated it was luck, there are people out there who can pull shit like that off in games.

[QUOTE=MrTwicks;26425471]how can you base that on skill, it's not like anyone train's "Grenade to helicopter" procedure's, luck my friend[/QUOTE] Of course it was luck. The title is for attracting viewers, so the maker of a video would want to make it as attractive as possible without telling a lie, or making the video seem pathetic compared to what the viewer expected. When I was playing the game, I knew that chopper would roughly be in that area since he was doing rocket runs on all the guys on the ground. All I intended to do was throw the bomb close enough to him to do damage, or kill him. Well, I killed him :v:

I bet he was pissed.

[QUOTE=dookster;26429317]I bet he was pissed.[/QUOTE] He didn't even realize what happened until I told him. I had a :smug: face for awhile after that.

i really wish i could play GTAIV. cuz then i can do awesome stuff like this.

It's actually easy to do.

For camera tips you did pretty good, only thing i'd reccomend is that instead of just flying to another part, stopping, then flying to another part not far away and stopping again, just make it one smooth linear camera track.

That was pretty cool

You had too many keypoints, that's why the camera kept stopping. The editor can't blend keypoints together very well.

What did you even throw? A grenade?

[QUOTE=cyclocius;26436112]What did you even throw? A grenade?[/QUOTE] A can of beans.

Number 1 most viewed musician of the day WOO

Stickybombs have large hitboxes on cars, that's how they stick on in the right place. It probably got within range of the helicopter and hit it right on target as a result.

I'm gonna make a slow mo version right now, me thinks. Expect the slow-mo version within the hour. [editline]3rd December 2010[/editline] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTKFQWiJRVc[/url]
