Holy crap, Valaggar made me epic and awesome o_O

I think I'm going to join the bandwagon and make awesome Star Control movies now.

In response to Valaggar's video:
I like the idea of editing full-game speech into the video. But the match is not interesting.

I got one.  It's an Avatar dying against a Fury.  Took me 4 lives, but I swear that I did it without dying once.  But I didn't have a recorder at that point.

If yer talkin' 'bout the Ilwrath/Kohr-Ah match, yeah, that's true.
If yer talkin' 'bout the Shofixti/Druuge match, kind of, but it's much more exciting to actually fight that match, not just watch it.

I've done it too. Yes, without dying. I did it ONCE, just in a common battle between a ton of different ships.

After watching that, I see we take slightly different approaches to fighting the Avatar. You just rush in there and shoot him up. I use the tractor beam to literally crash into the Avatar at an unfathomably quick speed so that the Zapsats don't get me.

Got it recorded for essentially one life.  I died without doing damage, so it really doesn't count, right?

Alright, I did Chmmr vs Utwig in under 2 minutes. See first post.

Got a real treat for you guys. Ur-Quan versus Chenjesu, Yehat, Mmrnmhrm, Arilou, Syreen, Earthling and Shofixti. That's right kids, it's a video of the entire Alliance line-up getting splattered across the pavement by one ship! Updating the first post to show this now.

There are two problems with the video:

*The Syreen took a lot longer than I'd like, although the end of that match has a pretty good "Screw you!" moment.
*My mediocre performance against the Mmrnmhrm is inexcusable.

The rest of the fights demonstrate perfect play with the Dreadnought, particularly Yehat, Arilou and Chenjesu because you get HOSED if you do any of those wrong.

I'm listing every video in the topic on the first page. If you're already on the right website and the video isn't showing up, that means you aren't waiting long enough. Regardless, try clicking on the download link if the file isn't loading off the page. It works just fine for me.

Niiice. I can see why the Yehat, Arilou and Chen could be difficult, but you just blasted all of them out of the sky!


You know, I really want to see somebody rip up enemies with the Supox Blade. I know that ship just has so much potential to be great, just as the Slylandro Probe does.

Trust me, it doesn't.

I got bored today, so I decided to do a parallel universe first contact between the Chenjesu and xenophobic Terrans with voiceovers. It's essentially a 3 Chen vs 3 Earthling but still, enjoy Tongue

That's better than most of the vids in this topic. I think I'll bump you up next to the top slot, good job.
