Natural-selection 3.xx Trailer

<div class="IPBDescription">Was One Released?</div> Ok here's the deal:
I'm helping my friend with his shop, he wants as many
"new" trailers on a VHS as possible. Thats easy
with my TV-Out. But I want to have a Natural-Selection
trailer on right at the beginning of the VHS to "pimp-out"
my favourite Half-Life modification.

We get a fair few people asking about the games currently
being displayed on the screen, when's it out, can I pre-order
a copy, is there a demo, and so on.
This way I can give them the Natural-Selection URL and
get a few more players. I'm not promising a thousand new
players or anything like that. I just want to show the
customers NS in all its glory.


So.... is there a 3.xx trailer/treaser/video out there that I
can use? Because at present the only trailer I can find is
from NS 2.0 advertising the new maps (mineshaft etc)
with The_Family_God's music being played.

Thanks in advance

    Actually theres a v1.0 trailer somewheres kinda low quality though. You could always have someone make a nice short demo of ingame play and make a avi out of it. Or spec someone ingame and record it on vhs.

    You could use the Intro videos that came with NS 3.0

    I'd like to use the Boondock Marines video but try to
    remember that this will be shown in a public place
    with a school just around the corner.

    So playing a video with
    "**** your waypoint!"
    in the opening 30 seconds is not going to go down well <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I'd love to see a trailer showing off as much "new" content
    as possible. Combat mode for example. And the Heavy Armour
    never fails to impress first-timers.


    If anyone out there wants to put together a video for this cuase
    (Flayra, the Natural-Selection community and my VHS) then i'd
    be glad to help and you can even throw your url in at the end
    as some publicity :-)

    Remove the sound from the boondock marines and add back 'em down from fangs <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    the 1.0 demo would be nice because it shows off some ingame features but you'd have to cut off the release date on the end of it.

    the only "trailers" for 3.0 were for the maps.

    Or was that the 2.0 maps?


    edit: that 1.0 trailer reminds me that the space where the map location is put is much better than its current one. Why was this removed from right under the map? It looks more natural.

    There was a 2.0 trailer which firstly showed the new maps and later on same in-game action with the new GL and stuff, best way to get a nice impression on NS would be to rec some minutes of a comm game and later the rec some shots from a Clanmatch using HLTV maybe

    Technically, 3.0 still hasn't been released.

    yep, but I doubt there will ever be a trailer for it so to speak... I mean rather than watch a movie you can just play the game

    actually i was working on a 3.0 trailer, and while i was gone for a couple days, flayra released the public beta.. that kinda ruined the vid.

    I woulda kept working on it, but now there's spectator restrictions and hltv isn't implemented yet :/

    if you want, contact me and i'll work on something specefic for you, dy3, or wait till i do the 3.0 trailer

    You can re-activate free-look with a simple amx plugin. It's ofcourse a serverside mod, and does have a few restrictions, but if you want it for working on a movie, it should work as advertised.

    I still need to find out what the Boondocks Marines thing is. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I think I must have like every NS movie ever made!!
    Check out these ones:
    <span style='color:orange'>All the ones hosted on the NS website
    NS1.0 trailer has good CG, NS2 trailer has good music</span>
    plus- check out:
    <span style='color:orange'>Chaos Films - Dark Horizons</span> (Google it)
    ^
    by far my favourite!

    i think the v1 trailer is wonderful. i was playing 2.01 for like 3 months, got curious how the trailer would look like, dled it, and i was still impressed even tho i know everything about it.

    soooo i'd say that's your best bet.

    well its good to know people still remember dark horizons <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I've been thinking about doing another ns movie and got some ideas i've been kicking around in my head. my question to all you is: if i did do another movie, would you rather it be a completely new movie, or rerelease dark horizons (and do it better) and add about 20-30 minutes added on to it?
  • CEldinCEldin Join Date: 2002-09-16 Member: 1323Members
    Not to try and follow Regis' hijacking of the thread but.... well yes I am. I think you should continue with Dark Horizons, it looked promising but never really had too much footage.

    What about the one from Gworks Pictures?
    you could put together a short trailer using the 30 second Gworks one (pre-Selection) the Trailer that came in 3.0 and various in game demos.

    It would be a little work but not bad!

    the thing I remember the most about dark horizons was the pathetic scream at the end <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    But I don't know, it always seemed unfinished, as if there was going to be a sequel. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Definately continue with Dark Horizons. After it ended with all those aliens chuckling and the HMG clicking empty you just knew there had to be more! Like reinforcements; I sort of got the feeling that Dark Horizons was a pre-lude or introduction between a full alien-marine encounter. It would be nice to add another 30 min "game" to the movie. I.E.
    "Command, Mission Control to command station 040368, What happened to your Alpha Squadron you deployed in Hera Station at 0800 hours?"......
    ....
    ....
    "Send down the Omega squadron to clean up, we need to secure Hera"
    And then the real battle could start.
