this video wasnt too good dude. i thought the great stunts was gonna start after the intro, but no. i dont think there was 1 stunt over 30 feet high. and what was that terrible music? "Please dont cry" over and over again - my ass lol. i really wish i hadnt seen this. this will be my last san andreas video download.

It wasn't too bad there Numdmind. I enjoyed a few of the stunts. Those stunts by Carls house in the grove were nice, I was liking those.

I would have to agree with NK on that topic of the music. I thought by the end of it I was going to cry

All in all a pretty decent video and Im sure your next will be even better.

I know the stunts weren't the best, but it was my first vid, and I was trying to see what I was capable of. That's why we practice. I look back at it now and realize that I could have made a much better one, but hindsight is 20/20. As far as the music is concerned, I have to put up with listening to alot of crap I don't like, but I never complain. You know why? Music tastes differ, and I can respect if someone wants to put in some music I don't like. I was trying to add a little diversity to the stunt "scene" other than the same tracks that everyone has heard a million times. I personally can't stand any of this mainstream stuff that is used in most vids. I respect your opinions, but when it comes to musical tastes, you can't tell someone they are wrong. I appreciate the input though. Thanks for taking the time. BTW, you probably won't like my next vid either because I used another track by Concord Dawn. Just letting you know, I'm not trying to be a smartass.

lol mainstream stuff in vids?

yeah...mainstream...Man I'm getting tired of defending my musical tastes. I guess since only 2 people have complained about my selection, then I don't really have room to complain. But I should have expected all of this because I haven't heard any drum n bass in any of the vids I've watched. If anyone remembers, there was a radio station in Liberty City, MSX, that played that kind of music.
I mainly wrote that last post in response to NightKnight, because all he did was mock everything I did with this video without any real criticism. You, GTA Fanatic, were more positive about it, and I can appreciate your input. I wasn't trying to offend you or start some debate over which music is mainstream and which isn't. I just wanted to state where I was coming from. Sorry if I have pissed you off, that wasn't my intention. In any case, I'm sure this has ostracized me from the Stunting community, all because of my choice in music.

I dont care what your music is, if it matches the stunts and the stunts were good then Im satisfied with the video. Numdmind do what you want. Trust me you are not ostracized from the community.

No problem. No hard feelings or none of that. Good video aswell, disregard my comment on the music. I've always said you can't hate a video by its music and Im gonna stick by that motto from here on out.

Good video nonetheless.

Fight the power

I only use this so called "mainstream" music in my vids cause everyone else does and it seems to go well with the stunts. The music me and GTAF listen to will defaintely not go well with a stunt vid and thats why we dont use it.

Agreed. That music would not go well with stunt videos.

NightKnight · « **Reply #11 on:** April 27, 2005, 02:44:44 PM »

That music sounded more mainstream than anything to me

Hagz · « **Reply #12 on:** April 27, 2005, 02:45:58 PM »

Sounded kinda like, I dunno. Techno? to me

Barney · « **Reply #13 on:** April 27, 2005, 04:28:22 PM »

i really liked the video actually

stunts were pretty good considering its SA

music seemed fine to me

numdmind · « **Reply #14 on:** April 27, 2005, 09:29:22 PM »

thanks everybody for the input. as i said, the stunts in retrospect weren't the best. I've seen much better since then, but when i was making the video and posted it originally, i hadn't seen too many of the SA vids because I didn't want them to influence what i was doing. It's kinda like if you used guides to play the game, where you don't actually feel like you accomplished something because you used help (like tag maps and etc.) So i basically i wanted to be able to say i found all of the stunts on my own...i'm not saying i discovered them all...
i've got some better stunts and a better video (IMO) in the works right now. Although i'm not too sure when i'll get it done.
thanks again everyone, and i should apologize for sounding pissy at first. i guess when you make something, you're a little obligated to defend it.
