God damn, the handling physics look cool (before the crash).
Up until now the most realistic car physics I've seen would be in GTA 4.

I thought Burnout: Paradise was pretty good for car physics.
More Shield of the Prophet shots:
In this battle I had to defend a valley location from a Soviet motorized rifle unit. It was a bad day for the Mujahidin because I didn't have many antitank weapons to go around; but I managed to knock out a few BTRs and BMPs with a captured WWII-era ZiS-3 field gun.

Your gif is pretty unoptimized and far too big for something so short and simple.
Your gif : 13.2 MB
My gif : 4.3 MB
[img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/optigif.gif[/img]
My gif isn't as smooth as a baby's ass like your .gif, or have as vibrant colors, but it's a .gif, not a youtube video. It still plays at an acceptable fps to understand what's happening on screen.
How I did it, if you're interested in tinkering in optimizing gifs :
I use two programs. The first is virtualdub. I use this for the most basic of editing. I drag and drop the .gif into VDub. Then I go to Video > Filters > Add > Resize , then I resize it to a proper size (I usually set the height to 320 and let it autoscale the width. I didn't bother resizing your .gif) After I have it to the size I want, I keep the filters tab open, and if the .gif has letter boxing then I move my cursor down to "Cropping" and crop out the black boxes.
If my .gif is particularly lengthy or has a lot of frames, I go back to Video and click on Frame Rate. Usually removing every other frame will do the trick. However, this will also speed your .gif up considerably. Go to File > Export > Animated Gif, and save it.
This is when Photoshop CS6 comes into play. Open Photoshop CS6, then drag and drop your .gif into the program. At the bottom of the screen you should see all the different frames of your .gif. Click on the first frame, scroll to the end, hold shift and click on the last frame. With all the frames selected, click on the down arrow beneath the .gif and select a custom time. I found .05 to do the trick. (Sometimes photoshop will run slower than it will in your internet browser, you may have to experiment to get it right.)
When you're done with that, go to file > save for web. On the top right there's a "colors" tab. Set that to 128 every time. Web Snap and Lossy will lower .gif quality but make the .gif a smaller size as well. I find 10% to work fine on big .gifs if you don't want a huge quality hit.
And with all that done (it looks like a lot of work, but after you get used to it you can do it in under 30 seconds) I had cut your .gif down more than half its size.
Also, alternatively to being lazy and letting vdub cut out the frames for you, you can manually do it in photoshop cs6 through the timeline. This has potential, because instead of your entire .gif having frames missing you could, for example, keep the punch silky smooth then remove every other frame after the punch to cut down on size.
I disagree. How often do people post gifs and if they do it's rarely more than 1-2. I doubt people complain and we are in 2013. If you're gonna show of your nice gif, why not make it pleasant to watch.
If it's under 15mb, who cares. Also, Adobe Premiere.

Watching smooth gifs is really awesome, for some reason.

If you're gonna post a megafuckhuge .gif you might as well post a video because at least it has audio to accompany the size

Making a gif that is 13mb takes a couple seconds, making a video and uploading it to youtube takes way longer.

It's pretty obvious we're not going to change each other's minds so I'm just going to stop here and go to bed. Even if you don't remove any frames from your gif changing the colors from 256 to 128 makes almost no difference to the quality yet lowers the file size drastically. Bumping up the web snap and lossy wouldn't hurt either.
If there's potential to lower the size of your .gif without hurting the quality too badly I don't see why you wouldn't do it.

Love this game
Noticed the big ass rock there and had no time to correct my vehicle as I went over the crest so I thought "oh well I'll take the offroad bit"
and then the flip happened and I shat myself since the finish line was just around the corner and I play on the hardest difficulty so I had no flashback uses :v:

It's No One Lives Forever 2
I just had this battle in M and B.
[t]http://i.imgur.com/0yyzgC0.jpg[/t]
It was 150 men vs my 57.
Of course 1/2 of those were still villagers but still.
Ordered my men to hold this place and this is the result.. 8 dead on my side and 110 on their side.
The men you see were the archers, the infantry was charging the 3 or 4 archers who survived the battle.
(and sometimes this thread makes my internet go like 'Uuuhm? nope')
