I've been asked what I think about the leaks on QL2.0, and I thought the best way to answer was to make a song:

Personal Statement

Nightmare 2 is a 24 minutes long fragmovie, which contains a sidestory.

In the last 8 months this was by far the most fun, and head-wrecking project i was ever working on. I had many high and lows during the process, which i never experienced in any of my previous works before. After Nightmare 1 was released, i had a little break and began to thinking about how to continue the story, puting it to an end, and write a small "storyscript" in the following days.

With Nightmare 2 my goal was to place the fear, and tension into the foreground of what these players are capable of, and giving it more "depth" in contrast to the prequel. A atmosphere, which contains some special moments, and a "storybuild-up" which shows the frags you all know (or not) in a different way. It was also very important to give the Playermodels/Characters a face and some emotions, while Cooller and ZeRo 4 climbs up the Tier-Levels. Especially in the last moments. I think the movie works good on both ways (the esports as well as the cinematic aspect).

In Nightmare 2 it was very important to keep the connection between the scenes. So for me the high amount of alternative point-of-view shots was necessary to keep the atmosphere together over the runtime. Some may find it too much, but without those scenes the concept of the movie would get destroyed. When the arena turns red again and the 2 xaeros appear, the movie becomes more cinematic as i wanted it usually. For that part i had 80 % of the demos from the wrong demotaker, so after the impactshot q3mme is switching instantlly to 3rd. cam. that was one of the "low moments" i had during the process, because i really wanted it in the other way around. I put alot of time in that part to compensate that, or find an another option, and im pleased with the outcome of it.

The red fog was improved. After the release of "nightmare 1" i saw it on different tft and lcds and i was very upset with the brightness, compared to my CRT. I reduce the thickness a little bit and change the fx to color channel, which should result in pure red on all kind of monitors, and let it more room for textures around it. sound wise i also put here the most time into this, compared to all my previous works. It took me several weeks to mix the complete soundtrack together with some pitched/manipulated sounds, and sfx into the movie to emphasize some parts.

With the end of this movie i want to thank you all from memorial till nightmare for your criticism and feedback, which improved my skills alot from one release to another, and keep me motivated during the last months of working on my visions.

I hope you enjoy it. Thank you.

TDM Lan in Belgium: Yes or No? (48 comments)

( Major News: ESR QL)

Posted by Memento_Mori @ 08:22 CDT, 13 August 2014 - iMsg

Dear fellow Quakers, it's time to decide.

As you know, the Prague lan had to be canceled due to the district internet cafe closing. We have discussed alternative proposals, and it appears that the most concrete option at this stage is to host a TDM LAN in 2014 is to take part in Storm 14. More information on how we arrive here is in the previous news post.

The only missing thing now is a consensus among the community. Are we doing this or not? Let's speak our mind, and settle this. Please vote here (poll) until Sunday 17th.

Targetquake August League (35 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Posted by easytarget @ 22:33 CDT, 10 August 2014 - iMsg

Well I have decided to start up the N.A. League again here. The format will be slightly different this time around though. Only serious players need to register, you must idle on mIRC in order to communicate with other players or myself.

The groups will run from August 22-28th, the matches will be scheduled throughout the week and streamed live on Targetquake, with a maximum of 16 players. Each group will consist of 4 players and the top two from each group will advance to the Finals, which will be streamed live on Thursday, September 4th. If you are not available to play a lot of quake during the posted week above or the day of the finals, please do not bother signing up. All players who sign up will be grouped according to their elo from QLRanks.com.
