[QUOTE=Dragara;46050949]Yeah, I don't like that five-minute limit. I hope Valve will one day consider increasing the allotted time. Either that, or making a separate category for extra-long videos similar to the Short category.[/QUOTE]
This. A lot of time people have to stretch for time, which is why the short category was created. But it seems like a lot of people have the issue of having to cut down too.

The lighting was really good, but some of the movement was a bit stiff.
Also, I found it kind of annoying how the Mercs kept on finding things on the ground like swords and guns.

The lack of sound effects makes it feel empty (etc. jump,sword pick up) .

I kind of thought this was a fan-made prequel to expiration date, but apparently not :v:

Not a single bullet connected with anyone during the entire duration of this
i'm still waiting for Callegos, Ferexes, and co's entry to come out. From what little Ferexes has told me, its going to be action. I'm interested to see how Callegos's rubbery style will fare in the action catagory along with camera work done by ferexes.

In 1972, a crack mercenary unit was put out of a job by robots for a job they didn't do well. These men promptly escaped from a maximum-security hat factory to the dustbowl underground. Today, still wanted by Gray Gravel Co., they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem... if no one else can help... and if you can find them... maybe you can hire... The BLU Team.

Well it is a bad guys' warehouse.

why is there never a clean warehouse? why do badguys just drop their weapons on the floor when theyre done using it instead of putting it in a chest or something
I can't be the only one getting tired of "Spy/Scout/Sniper fight a lot of people/one really good person in way too many fight scene/one fight scene that drags on forever and win because they're Spy/Scout/Sniper and everybody else isn't the director's favourite" videos.

a 180 degrees upper torso rotation. say what you want about amateur animating but this is inexcusable.

They never listened to their mom. They never tidied their room. They never hung out with reasonable kids. They are the bad guys.

The idea is probably that you put in some impossible movement to make the overall animation look smoother, like you shouldn't notice it in motion. You're meant to do it in a way that isn't that obvious.

It started funny and then suddenly went drama, I don't know if it went well together.

interesting. it didn't seem that bad at first but i felt like something was off. so i slowed it down frame by frame and ended up noticing all kinds of unfortunate hijinks, like the way solly's wrist appears constantly dislocated and the way the sholder and elbow joints flop about in an unrealistic manner. in fact the first half of the fight seems really clunky and clumsy the more i look at it.

Couldn't help but notice it and now it's really bugging me. The bomb stays consistently blue coloured from 1:09 - 2:55. Then in the final act the bomb changes to red. Other then that it's great.

The lack of audible sound effects (even if the movements and motor sounds are there, it is too little) and music makes it uninteresting.

You must have had your sound turned off; where was literally music and sound effects playing throughout the entire clip.
The end being void of any sfx whatsoever is a common trait in drama movies during specific scenes, such as this one where a main character makes the ultimate sacrifice.
[QUOTE=Careld;46056614]It started funny and then suddenly went drama, I don't know if it went well together.[/QUOTE]
Without the humor, the character wouldn't be as likeable, and his fate wouldn't matter as much to the viewer.
Drama can sell it's characters without it, but it's difficult when the author is given only 5 minutes.

I don't want to play MvM anymore.
Finally a proper story about a tragedy.
I haven't seen many drama entries entered so far but it's definitely got my vote soley because it isn't your run of the mill bellydancers deep spiritual soldiers with wings OC universe or kranisybs MUH LOST LOVER story
