Well I just downloaded and watched the video, loved it. The whole playing in reverse showing how the final guy who died had come from a squad and had a kill or two along the way. And they were done very well.. The music suited perfectly! I didnt think the quality was that good, i would rather download a 50mb video and have crisper video than 17mb for meh video quality. Keep up the good work, id love to see more done just like this... and a option to get a higher quality video.

I loved the video, great stuff. I think having the final (first?), lone soldier die from pistol fire rather than by more flashy means was a great way bring home the fragility of the soldier’s lives. The music was perfect as was the subdued coloration of the reverse sequence. Having said that, the revival of the squad members cheapened the whole experience a little for me. I felt it took away from the beautifully crafted air of futility of the first half.

All in all, a truly great video. The creativity of the internet community never ceases to amaze me. To take an internet multiplayer first person shooter and use it to make such an accomplished short film is truly praiseworthy.

after reading the feedback and talking w/ some people on our team i've decided to make a directors cut to Chronicles of War. i changed the intro a little and cut out the 3rd part. should be up shortly!!

can u also release high res versions of both the original and directors cut? i mean, this thing has a permanent home on my hard drive. might as well be there in all its glory :). this movie was more stylish and more creative than the stuff my friend makes, and hes been in the CS movie making business for like 2+ years and makes MOTW vids for team3d and c9 etc. (p.s. dont tell DchozN i said that, he scratches IRL)

I loved it, great job. Really makes you think about the whole thing. I really loved the part when you see the first guy floating back up from his death.
