: Okay, like I mentioned before, the starting of BCM9 was a perfect chance to
: grenade the whole bunch, but I guess you preferred going slow and easy.

Slow and hectic more like (see my earlier reply).

: Nice grunt-whack, but that overcharge was not particularly pleasant.
: Certainly not the best of unscripted events.

Yeah, normally I'd be too ashamed to show a movie in which I waltz into a plasma ball, but later events made this my choice play overall, especially the amusing ending.

: Some great grenade throws in there, and tagging that red elite was a fantastic piece of work.

I was pleased with that move, thanks. I was almost toast there.

: Loved the ending, especially with the quadruple explosion and the howling beastie.

Lucky chance, getting that howl right on cue!

: As for BCM10, that's a nice shooting gallery out there, with enemies coming
: in from a broad angle.

Yes, a very nice scenario. It's darned hard trying to keep them from getting into the enclosure though! If only I had an overshield, I'd be able to hold them back a little longer.

: Too bad about the video feed, although that can't be helped.

Yes, with dark areas I tend to get a posterization effect which is annoying. I'm not sure why it's so bad, but it's only working off S-video.

: You really hammered that blue elite with the AR and I was
: surprised when you decided to let him go down with a belly full of lead
: instead of with a few smacks to his split chin.

If you mean the first one, yes I could've been better off giving him a quick whack at the end, but I just had drilling in mind. I did finish a red with a whack in BCM9 though.

: Looks like the grunt at the one minute mark got hit by a Jackal
: overcharge: I didn't see this in the commentary!

It looks that way and I originally thought the same thing as you, but then I examined the movie frames. He seems to get hit by my plasma a moment before, and it looks like his legs are giving way, so I think my plasma killed him - which is a pity because the plasma ball from behind would've been funnier. Perhaps I'll add a word on this in the commentary though.

: For good measure, you should've whacked that squid-face's body a few times at the end.
: It would have been a touch more artistic with some more purple splattered around him.

You want more purple blood? The ground was covered in purple!
