PLEASE NOTE: These vids are now a little pointless since most everyone has now had a chance to see the maps but if your down for a few cool clips on Old Bones and a little Raven Down gameplay please enjoy.

I downloaded the new maps at the ass crack of dawn and got 4-5 games in before work today. I captured 55 minutes of video and threw these two videos together. I posted these for the benefit of those that are stuck at work salivating for the new maps and can't get online until later.

1. Old Bones Clips (1:30 long, only 9mb) - I wanted to get a gameplay but there was never one solid game (too many quitters resulting in very uneven teams). The first clip is my first time ever walking through the map and I happened upon the sniper. Those were my first two shots and found what happened funny . The second clip is of a rape quickscope I got while inside one of the museum buildings. The last clip was a random shotty battle where I had a triple until it got jacked , jk I really don’t care. I rendered at 75% quality to make it smaller.

Because the video doesn't show much of the map and for those of you interested - Based on my spawn in the first clip of my vid (I am pretty sure this is right): If you go to the right the sniper will be on your right as you exit (as you can see from the vid). If you go to the left that hallway will split in two - to the right of the split takes you back into the main open area where the huge statue is (to the left of the statue is the boomshot), to the left of the split takes you to a smaller open area where the nades are on top of the steps (and puts you right in front of their doorway/nades).

2. Raven Down Gameplay (6:20 long, 53mb) - This was my second game on this map. The gameplay is nothing special, but we do whoop on the opposing team (we were actually talking and working together but we also had ChuckNorris so game over). Cliffy B was right - this map is insanely fast as you engage your enemy immediately. You have to get used to the spawning since it is different from any other map (you’ll see I’m a little confused in the first round as my teammate spawns to my right instead of with me). Your team actually spawns in groups of two (the map is shaped like a plus sign, +). THERE ARE NO WEAPONS THAT SPAWN, BESIDES NADES (which can be found in the back of the pick-ups). This map forces you to use your Lancer/Pistol which I love because I HEART MY LANCER . This map will also be a favorite of shotty whores and nade taggers . I loved this map but since it is so different I would prefer to be able to play more rounds on this map in a single match. I rendered at a higher quality but a smaller project size.

EDIT: By the way, make sure you download Map Pack 1 and not the Map Pack 1 Video.

Good shit man, I'm gonna go DL them right now, glad you took the time to make these, I'm sure Z will give you an announcement if you ask him to on aim...

I appreciate the suggestion but I'm not gonna ask Z to announce these simple vids - there are other vids on here more deserving of an announcement, vids that people pumped a lot of time and effort into. Like I said, these aren't anything special, but just wanted to show a clip or two from Old Bones and a gameplay from Raven Down just for those who want to see a little bit of the new maps. And I just wanted to get them up ASAP so I didn't really spend any time editing other than very basic stuff.

Side note: I knew two of the players on the Cog team for the gameplay. They are relatively good players but we were all new to the map so the game was what it was. This map is going to offer some amazingly intense games if the opposing teams are working together.

Anything that could gain us traffic is worth announcing to Z! lol.

But if you don't mind I could ask him to announce it for ya? He usually isn't on until later but if you don't want it announced I don't have to.

Sure man... whatever you guys want to do.

aS I HeXBLiTz

they where ok but the videos where really dark compared to normal for me (the first anyway) so it was kinda hard to tell what it looked like.

but im dwnloading them as we speak as there free lol

GnS Denovo

Old Bones is naturally dark (like Mansion) and I rendered at 75% to reduce file size. Raven Down I thought looked ok but maybe I'm wrong.

Any suggestions for how to brighten my capture? I have a Pinnacle 510-USB and capture in Pinnacle Studios 10.5 then render in Vegas.

Brutal Irken

Maybe just drag them into your editing software and brighten the videos up in there.Or just turn up the brightness on your tv.

Edit:Btw thanks for taking the time to put these out.These will be the first videos of the maps I have seen.I like it that we have another level headed and contributing member to this site man.I'm sure many people are appreciative of it.

I'd probably have to do it in Vegas. The brightness on my TV wouldn't do anything since the video source is being captured straight from my 360.

But what do you think? The brightness on Raven Down wasn't bad was it? Maybe I would just have to brighten Mansion and Old Bones clips.

Anyway, PM if you've got any ideas as I don't want to take this thread way off topic.

Thanks.
