Let's Play OpenTTD
« on: December 22, 2011, 04:08:05 am »

   Because I actually wanted feedback and to have people watch this I figured I would post it here. Basically I am completely new to OpenTTD though the 5ish times I had my recording fail to save does mean I have enough experience to not fail to hard at easy things. The youtube video is HERE. Sorry about the quality, it should be fixed by the next part. Also if anyone has any suggestions whether for what to do or something about a better way to record it I am all ears. Here is a picture of what I have done so far

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

Let's Play OpenTTD part 2) The gift of FAIL
« Reply #1 on: December 22, 2011, 05:48:06 pm »

I failed at a lot of things in this video. A quick rundown of the failures is that I lost all my money with no way out, failed to make the video look better, and of course failed at the map in general. This will all add up into me starting on a new map in part 3 so if you want to tell me something to do or what have you now is a good time to do so. I will be giving this a dayish to see if I get any comments.

I'll tell ya that I'm watching. :) OpenTTD's a fun game, but can be tough to grasp.

Tell me about it. I can build stuff but you need money to do that. I can make money but not with the things I really want to build. Also I am doing a lets play of it so its not like I can just set up a profitable little people moving industry and let it play for a while till I have a lot of money as I want to entertain as well as play. The biggest thing is probably that I refuse to use airplanes which as far as I can tell must have mints on them that print money or something.

   Not an update to the Lets Play itself but an upload to test video quality. I also show how to cheese road vehicles some because of how distance is calculated. I switched over to using Camtasia to record it and I was able to greatly improve the video quality (though there is spots where for a split second the quality dives) as well as directly record the game sounds so that good. Any comments about the video quality or the actual content of the video would be appreciated. The video is Here.

New video up though I am going to lock this thread here as it adds nothing to my lets play honestly and just takes up space. Maybe if I had done screen shots or something but well I'm lazy and thats just to much effort for me. Anyway will continue to do more videos and I will be putting them all in the playlist here.
