Cleaned up a little, cut some sections:

I don't have audio for the last part. I guess it would be ok if we found music to go with it, but that becomes a licensing nightmare.

19 seconds into the video the player can't aim, making lots of micro adjustments that are over sensitive and laggy. 34 seconds into the video we see the player can't even track a scout and is having great difficulty getting his guns on that scout even when the scout is no longer moving...it's sitting still and he CAN'T hit it!

In almost every image where the pilot has to track a moving object, you can see the problem with doofus' dx9 client. It is broken beyond repair and you're demonstrating that to viewers with hopes that they won't notice.

I commend your effort, but I think we're doing a disservice by supporting something that is so damn broken and you're showing everyone just how broken it is.

the more I watch that, the more horrible it looks. 1:37 he can't track his slow moving target... 1:45 he's making small up and down motions because his cursor is drifting and won't stabilize... 2:08 he can't track a scout... 2:16 an even better demonstration of that problem... and again at 2:23... and on and on and on...it's one of the best videos that demonstrate how fukced up that $hit is.
You could not have done a better job of showing everyone just exactly what I've been seeing for years.

Nice work LANS, your efforts are much appreciated.
I have to agree with Wasp, there are certain scenes where you do notice aiming issues.
Although I'm 20 years older and my eye sight is slowly getting worse, I haven't been able to aim like I could when I was younger.
Was it doofus's dx9 update or just me getting older? No idea.

It doesn't start at 19 seconds as I stated above,...it starts at the very beginning. The first ship on the screen at 6 seconds into the video can't be tracked and it's the same thing over and over to the end of the video. HOW can you stand that? Do you not see it?

It is the broken dx9 update. It's also me sucking. Both together look double bad.

Dome showed me the video yesterday, and while the gaming footage has some issues, I thought the voice quality and production quality were nice. What video editing software did you use?
