Good Idea...maybe for some
« on: February 16, 2002, 02:58:21 PM »
Why dont we try movies of batreps. We could use like Quicktime or something. Maybe have a narrator saying what happens in the game, giving some excitment as well. ...as the Farseer unleashes its mighty powers into the unsuspecting Mon-keigh, the battle has been won!

I think it is a good idea, I dont like reading long batreps.

hmmm....that would be cool....only it would take a long time to make...and a long      to play!! my       average about two and a half hours so making a video while playing would be about four hours!!!

the simplest problem is that movies are massive files, some of us could access them just not that many, if you can do such a thing and raine has space it'll be put on the site probably - or if anyone else did that,
instead you could try flash to show units moving around etc? with a sound file of description.

until we have much better connections and tools for making such things i'm afraid its text with static pics.

Ya, I didn't know how much space EO still had on it...so I just thought it would be cool.

Space if not the concern.  The honest truth is, if you make a great batrep, I'd BUY the space to host it =)... so go make something and send it to me...if it's good, we'll find away
Just a fan of this awesome site.
