Amazing
I don't know why people are complaining! This flash rocks! ok it's not perfect, but the animation is smooth, its 3D (!), the song fits well and the mood is cool

nice to see that my work reaches your standards, hope you just took the time to have a little think about it afterwards
Pretty good
...But with the right programs it could have been better. They're were some nice textures and particle effects in there. But the animating wasnt quite top notch. And the flash seemed a little empty being that there were only two buildings and some dismall charecters. I highly advise using a game engine's graphics for projects like these to get best effects. And the Cryengine 2 is perfect for a military one. It comes with the Crysis for a total of $50 and gives the best grpahics, ever. Highly recomended.
But about the flash. Overall good attempt but you could have been a little more adjustable and creative with the right software. Also work on those animations. Im not saying they were bad they just wernt smooth or life-like. But good attempt none the less. Cheers!

nice to see what you think of it, i currently am using a software mental ray renderer and the results you get from it all just depend on what you put in, and i just haven't been able to put in the details i need to get the stunning results you talk of out, on top of that you have to remember that i did all this on my laptop, so big scenes = big crash :(
It's not that bad.
It had a good message and all that, and I love how you did the camera angles and the blurs. But the animation needs a lot of work, and the soldiers didn't look that great. Still, it was nice to watch.

thanks, its good to see it has done its job and managed to get you thinking
Not bad
Weird to see an ANTI-violence cartoon on Newgrounds, but don't get me wrong you have a good message in this.
The thing is, the song did most of the talking. Everybody is critiquing the animation in these reviews, but I think they're too preoccupied with the technical stuff. I just wonder if maybe there could have been a little more development. Also, the jet bombing them seemed kind of cheap; that is, why have this long story, without any allusion to imminent threat, and then a long shot ofthe jet coming in, withoutreferencingthe story? I don't know, man...aproject on this kindof topic shouldbe a little more cinematic.
Huh...I didn't really mean to go smashing up your work, because overall you did get me thinking, so good job.
raven9892002 responds:
thanks, good to see that it made you think. originally the jet part was going to be much more cinematic but then the move to Austria rushed up and i really had to get it finished and out there before i moved so the jet sequence really ended up just getting slimmed down. I'm not happy to see the expanded version go but you live and you learn...
cool
This.
