Transcript
Luke Timmins - 0:35 - Man, where did that grenade come from that killed me?
Tyson Green - 0:39 - Did you see how I did that barrel-roll and then hit two guys and it all blew up? Wow, that was awesome.
- 0:45 - CJ just got sniped and then cartwheeled over the side and then got run over by a Warthog.
Lars Bakken - 0:48 - We flipped six times in the air, landed it and kept going.
Luke Timmins - 0:56 - So it's sort of fun that with saved films, that single bullet that comes and that's actually going to kill you, that hits and then to actually watch blood start coming out and to watch the guy get shot back - to watch them in slow-motion and to see..."Look how cool that ragdoll is, look how cool this particle system is, look how cool that looks" is just fantastic and is really fun to see.
- 1:15 - People can't make things up now, they can't lie about what happened in the game last night, they can't exaggerate.
- 1:22 - Saved film is essentially an automatic replay of every game you play. Fly anywhere you want to in the map, pan around, check things out.
- 1:29 - The amazing thing about saved films is that you can actually relive any moment that happened at any time, and look at it from any angle.
Brian Jarrard - 1:37 - If you're not quite sure how did they actually get the flag out of our base when we supposedly had three guys guarding it, now its easy to go back, watch the film, see what they did.
