This time, it is me as Obi-Wan Kenobi on Utapau. But guess what? This one has combat! A LOT of combat!

I don't have the time to put it together tonight, I may get it done by Friday, it really depends how the week goes.

I hope you all enjoy this one,
McCusto!

There is a little surprise in it, it is not a virus

But nontheless,
Enjoy!

I liked it! I also liked the tie-in to Order 66 (although I don't want to know where you got the footage ;) ). One thing disappointed me about the video, though: the combat. It seemed like there were too few units fighting each other. Does the beta allow you to change the number of units on a map per game?

Yeah, but anything above 400 would lag me to death :/

Hell, I could make it 1,000,000 vs 2 if I wanted to :/

How high can the reinforcement numbers go before you have to start editing the files? Is it more than the 250 per side in Battlefront I? (just so you know, I haven't downloaded the beta)

Are you going to do one for Space Yavin (on Beat...like Tantive Four and Utapau).....just wondering...even though there isn't much on Space Yavin.

Wow, Utapau is different on the BETA then the Xbox demo. I'm assuming thats because the Xbox demo has goals, though.

Yeah, the beta is just mindless killing, whil on the X-box demo you need to destroy AA-Guns, defeat General Grievous etc.

That is because on the Demo, that is the acutal Mission level in the Campaign mode. But on the BETA, it is just instant action.

I do, but still anything over 400 lags the server

I never thought of that. I guess I could do that.

Kinda boring, u didn't use force push once. Liked the 66 footage though. I'm gonna be coming out with a movie of my own soon, but of jedi fighting EACH OTHER.

Grevious Vs. Yoda

Grevious Vs. Obi-wan

Because Force Push is worthless, all it does is make an enemy flip backwards. All it would do is make me a sitting duck. I can ONLY get it to work when I am standing completely still, but when there is 1000 battle droids around me, that would mean death.

hmm well I guess your right but that's only with driods. Works much better with Grevious and Imperials.

Yeah SBF_dann_boeing please read the Code of Conduct (http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=151640) before posting, you could have posted that in your own thread instead of hijacking this one.

But the videos cool.

Awesome movie, love the end part, especially since Im starved for ROTS footage, lol.

You should wait till the release, then show highlights of the game, like the attack on the Jedi Temple and the coruscant space battle

how do you record movies in SWBII?

just use fraps gamerecorder. Or gamecam.



About the movie;

- Try to cut out unnessecary pieces. Like the part of the first command post capture which was... boring. Especially when you see a scene later that the CP is again under CIS control.

-Try adding some special effects, I believe you used Windows Movie maker with this. If not, its free for download, and everyone can make good movies with special effects. An example is my rebel recruitment video for a Starwars RPG mod for the game Freelancer:
http://media.putfile.com/Rebel-Recruitment-Video)
hope you got something at that

-Dont make the texts too long. And add some appearing/disappearing effects

- Show some other parts of the map, 3/4 of the video is filmed on the same piece of map.
