What's the song at minute 17, i remember it from the movie Brat.

---

Splean - Sem' Vos'mykh

Check the band here. Or here.

Actually Brat (Brat 2, iirc) contained another song (Linija Zhizni), but I liked that one as well.

Can't find the song on youtube, what does the title translate to in english ?

With regard to the novelty of the video, I think Wizardry really set you apart from the crowd and the other two served mostly to reinforce that - as you say yourself, you are more or less using the same type of ship in mostly the same situations. That said, this is by no means boring or trite - as Miriam (I think it was) points out, it takes something new to blow the viewers mind. One could argue that the style of the ship itself makes for fights that are hard to sell to an audience. It is low dps so the footage has to be sped up to keep the movie at a non-insane length and although it is active tanked, you don't end up winning fights at the skin of your teeth with 2% hull less, rather you end up just escaping what is probably a dooming tackle by an Ishkur which is a lot less visceral.

What I would love to know more about is your own reasoning in the fight. When I saw you taking on that group of stealth bombers, I didn't really know if you were going to slaughter them or if the torps would actually do a lot of damage to you (you are using an mwd in a shield CS after all, but maybe I am just giving torps way to much credit) - to get your perspective of the situation going in allows the view to take your place mentally. I don't think nearly enough people do this which is probably because it seems so obvious once you are used to flying the ship.
Personally I try to look at every fight I am going to include in a vid and go "is there anything interesting to say about this fight?" and if there isn't, it's probably not a good idea to include it. Now, I am not going to say that I get fights as epic as anything in this video or your two previous (or the ones before those), but in a way it is like you are showing the same fight - NH/Tengu vs. blob - a lot. Some fights - like the stealth bomber fight - stand out, because something is noticeably different. There is probably a lot of difference in these fights with your more intimate knowledge of them but as an uninformed viewer I can't really tell if there's a difference between one blob in a plex which has a golem a zealot and 2 apocs, and another blob largely consisting of battlecruisers. Sure I might go "well the blob with the apocs probably has better range" but I can't really infer if the blob should have kept shooting the NH or if going for the ishtars drones is really the best course of action. I might be the only one interested in analyzing fights to that degree though.

Ultimately what makes your video stand out to me is the style of flying you employ, your way of editing and the style of music you choose, all of which are a good deal better than average and which place your videos among those I regard as the best that have come out of the community thus far.

Would that do? (or this; would need to understand lyrics to realize how well vid is synch'd with the track)

---

Before this movie i've only heard this song before in the Brat movie but i've had the same feeling of 'synch' in this internet spaceships movie as i had 4yrs ago when a russian dude whom i met in the Serpentis 4/10 plex in Pemene told me what is the name of that awesome russian movie - seriously what's with static complexes and russians ????.

In fact the entire audio track is in awesome synch with the action, Fon must have been working on it quite some time. :)

Now ... in regards of originality.
Your first NH movie had the surprise factor. 2nd movie saw the introduction of the Claymore alt and it really refined the tactic.
While not clearly visible, his setup has changed - lows on NH, and his Tengu is actually AB fit ... though it doesn't 'feel' like it.
Yes, the action is still basically the asme, but the setups have been refined even further and this is especially interesting because he doesn't use the oversized AB setup that endless and garmon made popular.

And for the whines who complain about multiboxing, this movie is not about using cost effective setups ... between implants and fittings that damn NH costs 3b isk, not to mention the skirmish alt ... his Tengu is probably even more expensive as he had faction launchers on it.
It is about an andrenaline rush, that you can only get when going 1 vs many and still winning or ideally ... barely winning.

What makes his vids stand out for me is the way in which he fights. He does things correctly. If you pvp then this is the stuff you'll appreciate and enjoy watching.

I don't really see a need to explain every detail, unless he does what endless and kil2 have done and creates a commentry vid. The fact you can't tell the difference between fights isn't a fault on his part at all imo and I don't think he should explain each detail as for people that know what's going on this could get annoying.

I think your best bet if you want this info is to ask fon to do a commentry audio like Kil2 and Endless

love it ! dont give up!

Fon, just watched all your vids and I want to say you are one extremely talented individual. Pay no attention to all the nah sayers, I bet half of them wouldn't even attempt to take on the odds you do let alone win. Keep up the good work m8, I think you have earned your place in Eve history as far as I am concerned.

partially due to ethical reasons, since tossing out expensive loot to blobers (who clearly don't deserve it) just results in me spoiling them even further, - so I hope you'll enjoy this one.

The blober's problem is that they won't get much anyway, as they forced to split income from loot equaly ;)

Sorry to highjack this thread, but you really should make a thread with links to your various lvl 5 mission vids. :)

Love your stuff Fon. Even tho takes you time to spit out your vids, they're worth all the wait there is.

Almost every single EVE vid I watch is thrown away afterwards, but yours stay put on the HD eating space. Pretty damn rare for me, so you must be doing something right.
