Oh yeah, the blue water-ballon curve-ball PPC with huge diamond particle effects was just awesome.
Seriously, though, the models were decent, and the animations were ok, if a bit wobbly and stiff but with believable leg motions. Everything else was horrid. The acting was really bad, and putting them on camera was a huge mistake, but you could tell it was just the student's buddies happy to be in the intarwebz. The sound mixing sounded like they were sitting in a basement playing D&D. "My dude rolls three dice... oh no, I have to eject! While I'm up I'm getting a sandwich." Seeing their faces and the cardboard cockpits didn't help. I think the video would have been twice as good if he'd put some static on the comms and never showed a pilot. The weapons effects, though, were just bad. Oh no, it got hit with a blue ball, hurry, slump the ground, still shiny! Surprisingly bad compared to the fairly acceptable leg animations.
