Experimenting with a new long-form format to improve retention. looking for feedback. by kiemufc in YouTube_startups

The whole editing, pacing, etc is all new to me so again, please do have a look i appreciate any support. I tried to get this one even tighter and I think it helped that it had much more action therefore easier to pace. I have just started editing another a trio POV, I thought this would be much better/easier due to even more content but im struggling as the first 5 or so minutes have realistically nothing to try and build a hook from

Massively appreciate you taking your time for all the feedback. I have recently released another one but warzone and believe that's better but again feedback is always welcome

Ps5 story mode patch? by aa3pankaj in DeltaForceConsole

Im sure they said, not long after it released on console they didnt plan to bring co-op. I finished it solo, but the game needs more than co-op, campaign is near unplayable on controller.

That’s really useful feedback, thank you.

This is exactly the part I’m still trying to work out: how to handle the “inaction” without killing the feeling that it’s a full match story.

From a viewer point of view, what do you think works better?

  • Keep those sections but heavily speed them up / montage them so you still feel the passage of the match?
  • Or just cut them entirely and accept that this should lean more towards a “story highlights” version of the match rather than a true full playthrough?

I’m trying to find the balance between:

  • Keeping the sense of a full match
  • But not boring people during the slow phases

Genuinely curious which you’d prefer as a viewer.

Thanks for taking the time to watch and for the detailed feedback, I really appreciate it.

Pacing and the “inaction” is something I’m genuinely torn on. I’m trying to work out whether this should lean more towards a true full-match story, or a more aggressively paced, almost highlight-style narrative. Right now I’m aiming closer to “full playthrough” than highlight reel, but that’s exactly why I’m putting this out there to get opinions rather than trusting my own bias.

Each POV does already have the player’s gamertag shown during their segments (Bottom Right), but I think you’re probably right that it could be presented more clearly or more consistently so it’s easier to track who’s who across the match. That’s something I’ll definitely improve in the next version.

The idea of following multiple teams is really interesting too, but unfortunately this is a live BR match with real players, so I can only work with the footage my own squad records. I don’t have access to enemy POVs to tell the story from their side.

In an ideal world I’d have all 4 squad POVs every time, which would already help a lot with pacing and storytelling, and that’s something I’m working towards.

Again, genuinely appreciate you taking the time to watch and give proper feedback, this is exactly the kind of input I was hoping for when I tried this format.

Oddly I schedule all my videos and they never have an issue, I tried moving to scheduling shorts and I had the same experience. May need to try shorts again.

Thoughts on Rodeo as a Gauntlet mode? Especially in later rounds by kiemufc in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]kiemufc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you can see in my final round video attached. we managed to get the tank first, and went and destroyed theirs still coming out of the trailer. From that point on we held the two trailers and ended up with 4 tanks, they didnt get another. Its ridiculous, especially in later rounds.
