City of Heroes - Dropship Down

[professionalcr]

I'm going to try this...On Lib, they never take down the ships...I'm going to start that off next

[samuraiko]

@professionalcr Good luck to you! :D

[EmperorSteele]

Ohhh, memories! I remember we planned this out for Talos island only and hoped for the best. And... we got Talos! But then the Devs smiled on us and gave us a SECOND invasion immediately afterward! THAT'S what makes this game so great, not just the players, but the development team who pull all the stops to make sure that Player Events are as awesome as possible!

[alm794]

I didn't realize you could even take one down.

[rosenoel]

Long live Virtue!

[jasonpsimmons]

ah, glad to see that my favorite Samuriako video is back :D

[iicefreak]

I got 2 questions for yeahh

Do u get a badge for taking them down???

And what program do u have to film that

Because I wanna film stuff to

[samuraiko]

No, you don't get a badge. And as for how I made this - watch my video series 'Making Movies in CITY OF HEROES', it'll tell you everything you need to know.

[AKKUMU]

So this is what the game looks like with a good comp, and so this is what a dropship looks like when it's esploded :O

[samuraiko]

Yep - neat, huh? :D

[AnarchyUK1991]

Nice effort! that was sick aha :D

I thought the music was a bit..... wank xD

[samuraiko]

The choice of music was made by the Virtue players taking a vote. They voted for Queen's 'Another One Bites the Dust,' so I obliged. :) Next time around, though, I am choosing the music! :)

[scottscott0077]

how much xp do u get for killing one

[samuraiko]

None - it's just bragging rights.

[MaxifyKation]

That was absolutely amazing, I will so take fly in my dual builds from now on!

[samuraiko]

Thanks, and good luck!

[sanantonio7]

if you took a ship down with brawl then i'm a little green alien

[RJBailey]

Hardcore! ^_^

[samuraiko]

Thank you!

[RJBailey]

You're welcome! ^_^

[MithlondShip]

Another great vid. usually those kinds of AV/GM vids are annoying to watch because you cant see anything but a blur of numbers and chaos. this looked very clear and was watchable. I wish I could get on a dropship team.

[samuraiko]

I'm sure they'll be doing another one soon!

[rpgmlinks]

I once took a dropship down solo with brawl... true story.

[cvoc37]

That was so cool. I can't wait to join a dropship destroying team.

[Agerasia]

That's awesome considering how much damage they dish out.

[ryokkeno]

Total pawnage

[samuraiko]

Thank you, but the credit goes to the Virtue players. I just filmed it.

[Valkod23]

I love the choice of song used. I remember hearing in one of the closed tests about the Rikti Dropship choo-choo trainb of doom when they were given slow immunity.

[alienbot23]

Nice team work and awesome vid guys :)

[andyt1313]

That was quite impressive 5 stars. Seeing all those heroes swooping around lobbing attacks at the drop ship is really quite epic looking. And I can barely get 8 heroes on a team.

[samuraiko]

Thank you! Credit for the teams really goes to the Virtue players and the team captains.

[WolfXMike]

Whoo! at :54 you can totally see me! =D

Awesome Vid too, and not just cause i was in it ;P

[samuraiko]

:) You're welcome.

[Tenshiyami12]

great vid and great choice of music if only the EU servers were more willing to take the dropships down

[callac]

Let´s try again in Freedom, plzzzzz!!!

[trueservantx]

i feel sorry for that poor dropship

[SurrenderFace13]

this is amazing. i wish i was there :(

[samuraiko]

Don't worry, I'm sure they'll be doing others...

[cacae]

lol fly

[zs05slicezor]

Awesome!

[samuraiko]

Thank you!

[snorii]

Wow, great job to everyone that participated. I wish I'd been there for it. :D

[samuraiko]

It was great fun...

[Xyleera8]

is there a reward for it?

[samuraiko]

Nope, just bragging rights.

[Frogmjf]

there should be at least 1 badge for this... it is very epic... I wish I played on your server :D Guardian over here

[hockey21man]

I dont play on that server much but That would have been fun to see in person. So jealous! :)

[hockey21man]

Very cool. Great video.

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[samuraiko]

I know...

[kozgear]

they really need to put a badge in game for this...

[tracerm6c]

Atk of the winglies!

[samuraiko]

Nuke 'em from orbit... it's the only way to be sure. :)

[CassandraTroy]

Now that is what a super hero game should be like! Thanks for the amazing video.

[samuraiko]

Thank you, I try. But credit really goes to the heroes on Virtue for the audacity to do it in the first place.

[mykebim2003]

....... damn! I am sooooooo loving this video!

Torroes Prime

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[BlaccChoppa]

Now thats a Raid!!!!! standing there fighting rikti and lagging is soo lame. but that right there looked so fun

[samuraiko]

It was an absolute blast.

[NeoSaturn69]

That was very nice, I hope to that some day soon.

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[vansieg]

Thank you for recording this. I had missed the Talos Island part of it, but I was there to defend Peregrine Island. Not only fun to be there, and to get bragging rights for participating, but good for my RP background (my toon, KIRSTEN, has a bone to pick with the Rikti). I will definitely favorite this vid. Thanks again!

[samuraiko]

You're welcome - had this been on Justice, I also have a toon who has a grudge against the Rikti.

[Mathadar]

Thanks for another great video! I haven't seen but one of these taken out and they followed it across the whole map. Because of the whole fuel prices thing I had to stop playing CoH earlier this year, I hope to start playing again soon though.  Just don't forget to wear your cape.

[samuraiko]

You're welcome, and hope to see you back in the game soon!

[triune94]

Wonderful - love your taste in music, too :D

[samuraiko]

*bows* Thank you, thank you.

[KitsuneNights]

Wow! I been in many Rikti battles, but I hate to say that not once have I been on a team taking down a dropship nor have I seen on fall, and now seeing this, like I said before, WOW! Another great Vid, love checking out your work :)

[samuraiko]

I'd only seen one getting taken down once before, and that was before I knew how to demorecord. This time, I got to record to my heart's content. :)

[FatalFist]

Nah the opening with the avatar doing the spin and bam strait to illustration. Pretty neat stuff. DB is flashy :)

[samuraiko]

:D I try.

[misterlynch]

thanks for the Vid M. and gratz to everyone who took 'em down

just sorry I had to take a hiatus due to money trouble. wish I could've helped

[samuraiko]

You're welcome - glad you guys are enjoying the video!

[diggis79]

Epic, just epic!

[samuraiko]

Thank you, just thank you! :)

[Lenya1]

Oh dang, I missed the fun!

[samuraiko]

Trust me, I'm sure we'll be doing another one in the not-so-distant future.

[Lenya1]

Wee! Not sure if my Scrapp on virtue will be useful, but just being there would be awesome!

[clawhands44]

Hahahaha wow, that was epic!

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[teacherborg]

Awesome!

I just hope we see a region US/EU merger. It's rather far between evens EU side nowadays. Darn Devs for ruining the Hami-raids and changing the mothership raids.

We deffo need more "social content" in CoX! This *really* is what it's all about!

[samuraiko]

I promise if I get hired at NCSoft (ha, fat chance), I'll see what I can do.

[djsteeler69]

yet another Top vid.

You know where this one is going. :)

(straight on my phone with all the others so I can watch whenever I want). :D

[samuraiko]

Your poor phone...

[durty1calhoun]

that's really cool...this vid is making me wish that I played on Virtue :(

[samuraiko]

Actually, I normally don't, but I have friends who do.  And they asked very nicely. :)

[Frogmjf]

Guardian FTW!.. .awesome by the way... I didn't know these things were kill-able, either that or next to impossible to destroy

[samuraiko]

Let's put it this way - those suckers have 75000 HP each! My average blaster? Maybe 1500.

[RydWolf]

You do of course realise that this is what a superhero rpg is supposed to BE like!

Above excellent job, though a lot of credit must go to the other people involved.

[samuraiko]

And like I said in one of my earlier responses - all I did was film this. Credit really goes to Angry_Angel and the captains for seeing this thing through.

[FatalFist]

Gotta love that opening. xD

[samuraiko]

What, my credits? Or the "Attention all Star Strider Forces..."?

[dklw888]

Wow Awesome vid! Its Awesome how you guys took down the ships!

[samuraiko]

The credit goes to the Virtue players - all I did was film it. :)

[katy66541]

AWSOME!! I wish I was there :D Rikti annoy me

-Nebula Inferno

[samuraiko]

It was great fun - wish I'd been able to bring in my lvl 50 en/en blaster, but she was on Triumph. This would have SO been up Johanna's alley...

[katy66541]

that would have been cool :D wish i could have brought my 37 blaster, but he's also on triumph

[swardinc]

great vid now im getting a idea of what that rage thing is

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[blytwd36]

hahaha. that was awsome. wish my comp ran CoH that well, lol

[samuraiko]

That was actually really lagged, thanks to having 100+ people in the zone. My footage is usually smoother than that. :(

[Masterzozu]

nice vid

[samuraiko]

Thanks - it was great fun racing all over the place filming them.
