Xonotic Trailer - rainerzufalldererste - 04-19-2010

So this trailer is not to give people realistic expectations of what the game is like.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Debugger - 04-20-2010

A trailer would be a nice idea! Smile

But there is no Svn or Beta for Xonotic...
On what did you especially think?

Are you serious? I hate game trailers that do not have gameplay action, because they don't give you an idea of the game experience.

The trailer should have at least 50% in-game action in it.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - od@r - 04-20-2010

i love game trailers with film atmosphere /cut,music,sound-effect and story/, but game trailer should also offer excerpts from the in-game playing


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Debugger - 04-20-2010

Oh yes, the trailer as a whole think has to fit...
Everything should be done great Wink


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Karbofos - 04-20-2010

something like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X-jmIz1ccE&feature=related

oh yes that's a good example!

ok but not only ingame sceens!!!
it has to be graficaly impressive! Big Grin
Let's start working!


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Debugger - 04-20-2010

Hmm
ok, would help working on this trailer Smile
...but which screenshots? which ingame videos? Tongue


RE: Xonotic Trailer - kuniu the frogg - 04-20-2010

maybe something like this Tongue

PATH TO FREEDOM

I've made it a while ago, nothing special. But it's probably first nexuiz movie with some plot Big Grin


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Fisume - 04-20-2010

There is no beta, alpha or anything out yet. Let's wait 'till xonotic is ready for the first REAL release and concentrate on a small trailer then.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Roanoke - 04-20-2010

A trailer, I should reiterate, that does not have doctored/modified/shopped/after effect'd frames. The last thing we need is someone looking a a trailer and thinking, "WOW AWESOME", then joining a server and thinking "THIS SUX LOL".


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Exitium - 04-21-2010

Well, IMO we could publish some kind of teaser without actual in-game gameplay (or maybe just quick flashes) when Xonotic is about to be published as a beta (or even before that). The teaser is going to be some kind of mysterious "a game called Xonotic is going to be released, stay tuned: it kicks ass". Something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj2hewPBQh0

When the final 1.0 release is just around the corner, the actual trailer will be published with in-game action etc. And the actual trailer is going to tell the public WHAT kind of game Xonotic really is. And that's going to be an ordinary trailer-like clip, you know what I mean.

What do you think about my opinion?


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Debugger - 04-21-2010

Oh wow!

Exitum, something like this could be used for a small intro! I like that Smile

Very nice ideas!! How fast (after the release of Xonotic 1.0) do we want to make the video? Wink


RE: Xonotic Trailer - kojn^ - 04-21-2010

A video will probably be made prior to release.

It's been mentioned before, but it needs to be something/show something like kickin it off by PCLizard action wise an have good editing.

That will attract more people then releasing a video after it's release.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Mirio - 04-21-2010

What about this kind of trailer?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4fw0VvPg9w

It has some movie elements , some gameplay and some short facts. I like it.

Yes, but for god's sake, no doctored videos or screens.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - rainerzufalldererste - 04-22-2010

but nothing with seeing the menu, entering a game and loading!!! only gameplay or other videos!

RE: Xonotic Trailer - Essiance - 10-11-2010

You can't realize impressions of the Crysis Trailer. Crysis has got a story, and Xonotic is a ultra-fast ego-shooter, single player. Would be a great idea, such a trailer, but no chance to realize it Sad. Somebody has to invent a story, so more and more players would start the campaign Smile

Could also perhaps invent a campaign first Big Grin


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Essiance - 10-11-2010

Yes, with a "true" ingame story, if any one hear knows how to record a professional video, we would have a great trailer Smile


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Fisume - 10-13-2010

Wasnt there a small team which wanted to work on the singleplayer? Would be nice to get a small sitrep, have they decided on a plot? Stuff like this would be important for a trailer. If there isnt, we could simply use a trailer showing some hot multiplayer action.


RE: Xonotic Trailer - Essiance - 10-13-2010

Fisume is right. We have a team? Didn't know that...

It's nothing official (yet!), but have a look at these:

A couple of guys set something up for discussing singleplayer, but I'm not exactly sure what's going on at the moment.
