Modus Operandi Public Section / Re: MO - Magnum OPUS
« on: December 24, 2023, 11:39:07 AM »
Hello guys! I haven't logged in gtas in 2-3 years since I became inactive again but after The Big V told me on discord about the release of your final video, I quickly decided to add it in my "to do" list and tonight I got the chance to watch it. I'm not going to do a detailed video review but more of a free style appreciation post that encompasses your entire crew lifetime in the past 10 years. In those 10 years you became a big if not the greatest source of inspiration for me and I owe you so much for that. As someone with a more natural and creativity focused approach in stunting (in a crew that has always gravitated towards bigairs and stuck methods) I've been always very fond of your stuff. Your first CV will always remain my favorite and it's probably something like one of my top 5 most watched videos. The ones that followed didn't disappoint either. And now the last one, the cherry of the cake, the magnum opus  :mellow: a great title choice for sure guys! I don't know if the common folk knows it but you clever b*stards had a clear idea since the very start of how many crew videos were to be made until the end of MO. That sequence is dictated by the number of letters in the 1st CV "Magnum" (each following video title picking the next letter). And now we're at the final "M", the sixth masterpiece. The attention to detail doesn't stop here. Y'all made sure to prepare a nice scripted intro for this CV that inevitably touched my veteran stunter soul. Times have changed, we've moved on with our lives but the love for the craft is always there.. which hits with nostalgia so good  :ajaja: Now the stunting itself in this one is top notch, with lots of stuff that I consider my cup of tea. There are some stunts that some of you showed me like back in 2018-2019 and I'm so happy to see them finally witness the light of day. There were however occasionally some less impressive spots here and there but that didn't overshadow my overall experience while watching it. It sure was a long one but 7 years have passed since Noire so it was expected. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Modus Operandi for everything that you accomplished and for everything you did to me. Thank you for all the fun and all the good vibes. Shout out to my old pals Max, Zero and Rainbow and especially to the latter who had to deal with me constantly spamming him with spots throughout the years asking weather they were new or not (don't blame me for my insolence mate, your brain is a faultless stunting database)  :lol: that's all from me. I wish you all great success in all areas of life but most importantly stay healthy, happy and safe ❤️

DSS Video Releases / Re: [DSS] LEVIATHAN

Hello guys! I did a review as promised.

0:00 Intro: Boring honestly, this type of TV news report has been overused throughout the last few years in stunting videos and I don't find it interesting anymore unless you fill it with easter eggs and a clever script to say.

0:31 Skuller VC huge natbump 2 roof: This is probably your all time best stunt man, I remember when Daffy showed me a close attempt years ago I got really motivated to try it but it didn't take long before I quit because it's just such a tedious spot. You don't get many bumps there. Big props!
0:40 MaCi LC psm backbump: you recently showed me this stunt, neat spot and smooth execution, great to see a new way to land this awkwardly situated building
0:56 Nem VC hotring vice point area:  nice one, collab material I must say
1:04 Skuller SAIVC csm 2 green prec: very well executed! I love these spots that have an awkward runup to start with, adds to the difficulity
1:14 Sheeptea VC bump 2 ramp 2 bump 2 krail 2 grind: best grind in this video, amazing find my man! Happy to see you in the crew, you are a remarkable stunter
1:27 Skuller VC airport huge ramp 2 silo: nice stunt, wasn't it landed already? Not a big fan of the stunts that include these ramps though
1:41 Nem VC viceport hotring 2 ship: again collab material but still a very good one!
1:53 Faiz VC doublebump: this is SICK! Great landing my friend! Someone from WH did it with the longer runup from the other side so this is an improvement for sure! Again: I adore awkward runups
2:08 MaCi VC grind 2 stoppie 2 ledge grind: double grinds nurture my very soul, thank you
2:17 Nem VC sanchez bump 2 airgrab 2 roof:  a very bad stunt, sorry man
2:25 AllBeast VC ramp 2 grind 2 csm 2 420 2 bump 2 grind: I honestly didn't like it, you did a regular grind and then basically drove the bike to the second bump
2:37 Sheeptea LC boost 2 watergap 2 docks: an ok stunt
2:57 Faiz VC psm 2 prec: hell yeah man! Epic preci.. are these structures hollow or I'm bad with the memory here?
3:11 Smut LC cheetah barracks bump: now this is the car stunt I was looking for! Outstanding.
3:20 Skilz VC downtown boost 2 prec: with an extra grind and weird execution to get that extra adrenaline pumping in your veins! Good one bro!
3:31 Skuller LC bump 2 cork 2 grind: I've tried this long ago, the bump is absolutely terrible so congratulations once more for your unshakeable patience man!
3:41 Nem VC doublebump: same opinion as before, mediocre. You should try for some variety as well man. These popped wheels car stunts seem to be your favorite
3:48 The Big V LC tank bush 2 blown skimmer bump 2 roof: luv ya Vanko, your tanko performance is top notch as per usual <3
4:03 Skuller VC tankbump 2 construction ramp: good one! I believe it's a spot of bg hitman, correct me if I'm wrong   :D
4:11 Faiz VC police bump 2 roof: nothing special to me here, personally not a big fan of this method unless you do something creative with it
4:20 Sheeptea SAIVC skimmerbump 2 roof: I'm a bit envious for this spot man, a thing of beauty! I've tried it from further back but it was hard to stuck a skimmer there and you need to cover more distance which is a bummer. This is a very clever find!
4:28 Smut LC dodo pharmacy area upside down under the train tracks 2 flip 2 chimney prec: eh.... I don't have the mental capacity to understand this  :D
4:43 Sheeptea SAIVC p2b 2 roof: what a bigair... and the distance... can I have an autograph sir?
4:54 Ezraph VC stoppie 2 ledge grind cooper style: boring
5:07 Skuller LC csm 2 red container: awkward runup, precision... couldn't have been better!
5:19 Sheeptea LC ramp 2 csm 2 roof bonk 2 roof landing: landing the top is the perfect improvement on this classic! Congrats.
5:34 MaCi VC downtown boost 2 bump big air 2 prec: epic spot! Question:  there are like 3 or 4 precision possibilities there, were you aiming for this one specifically or it was random?
5:47 Nem VC hotring double bump 2 mall: I'm not going to repeat myself
5:57 Streem LC packer 2 bump 2 roof: wasn't this old by Taz? Correct me if I'm wrong PS: I'm dead wrong. Just checked TaxXx Airplay and Taz does it with a psm there so you definitely did much better, great stunt! Was it a nasty angle though?
6:09 Smut VC squalo flatbed bump 2 prec: you killed it with that flatbed bump man! A squalo precision will always make my day
6:16 Sheeptea LC bump 2 tree 2 glass roof: the best stunt in this whole video and top 10 all time natural bigair bump for me, WHERE'S MY GODDAMN AUTOGRAPH !!? Can you tell me more about this one? (How much did it take to land? Was this a nasty bump ? Did you get lots of bails and close calls or it was one of those lucky finds that get done in like 1-3 attempts? )

6:38 Skuller SAIVC csm 2 chimney prec: I told you in PM that you're a far better stunter now, right? Well it's safe to say that you're amongs the top best active stunters now. Landing these chimneys with a pcj is absolutely mental
6:48 Smut LC barracks bump 2 construction prec: loved the C shaped (ish) runup. So many precisions in this crew video! I'm definitely rewatching it like a hundred more times heh
6:56 Skuller SAIVC angel 3x grind: these grinds aren't a big deal for me honestly even if it's a multiple grind, a bit disappointed here
7:06 Sheeptea SAIVC polebump 2 red roof: totally my cup of tea.. Sheeptea ! Kek... a very creative natural bump, with a runup that uses roofs only instead of the ground. 10/10 how high is this btw? Wish I could see it from another angle
7:13 Sheeptea SAIVC freeway ramp 2 tree bump 2 grind:  isn't this possible without the second tree bump? Collab material imho
7:28 Skuller LC angel 6x grind: you already know my opinion here , getting to that wall grind where you bumped in the end would be very very sweet but it's probably super hard to nail it
7:43 AllBeast LC ramp 2 wall 2 krail 2 bonk 2 3x grind: that krail to bonk killed it man, sweet stunt
7:54 Sheeptea LC boost 2 bridge wire stuck: what on earth is this ? Haha. Looks amazing. Was it intentional to land it like this and were you aiming for this place in particular?
8:02 Smut VC hotring ramp 2 heli bump 2 prec: a worthy prefinisher and the best car stunt in the video, hats off dude!
8:12 AllBeast VC huge bump 2 prec: looks nice and clean but ever since I found out about that frame skipping thing you use I just can't fully enjoy and appreciate your stuff man, especially the bigairs. Sorry. It's still a form of cheating for me and kinda unfair to the other stunters that would otherwise spend much more time in landing these spots

8:28 Credits: not reviewing credits, fuck off you sick cunts hahahah

Soundtrack: reminiscent of the good old times say 2008-2011 stunting and the musical tendencies back then. Not super thrilling song choices but nostalgic nevertheless
Editing: the same thing as the soundtrack choices, nothing too special but still nostalgic especially with that CC
Overall Performance: 8/10  it's still one of my favourite DSS videos of all time. Probably like somewhere in top 5 for me. The leftoverish stuff and the underwhelming and forgetful mood the songs created are the reason I took out 2 points. Still a very strong crew performance. I might check on y'all in discord these days. Kinda miss you guys. Hope I can contribute to a future CV and spend more time with crewmates when the opportunity comes for me (life's been quite busy lately).

Cheers from Turok!  :happy: :a-cheer:

DSS Video Releases / Re: Impossible is nothing
« on: May 17, 2021, 08:01:39 AM »
best solo ever for me
mindblown...
i thinked everyone will say that, but looks not this time, thank you

Big props for the finisher man! I've never tried this spot but I've seen enough bails and sad lads throughout the years to know how nerve wracking it can be. My favorites were the cabbie double boost near the vc construction site and the prefinisher (gotta love that packer runup extension). The amount of double and tripple grinds was unexpected but I loved it! Great touch of variety and style. All in all happy to be a team mate of such a skilled relic that you are.  :euro: :cheernutz:
thank you

i wanted to see more live reaction, because when someone really see something first time emotionals are the best

That's true man. I've noticed that many stunters started doing it in the last one or two years and it looks very fun but I'm just too busy lately to even consider doing it. I had to watch your solo from the toilet  :lol: I can only assure you that I'll be rewatching it many more times because it's just so good in all aspects.

I haven't checked GTAS in months but today I had a gut feeling to do so and I'm not disappointed. That solo was a blast! Every stunt was top notch and exactly my cup of... *cough* nat bumps *cough* tea and you know very well that you're one of my favorite stunters all time. Song was super chill and enjoyable. I'll make a full review later.  :a-cheer:

1:25 and the prefinisher were pretty sweet! I like that you used old school InFlames for this.

Very nice solo man. It's a shame you didn't go for the casino precision in the last psm.

REVIEW TEMPLATE
Opener 0:10 : I remember when V showed me the clip a while ago. My jaw dropped. This natural stunt to precision is my cup of tea
Drop bump 2 prec 0:19 : My favorite stunt in this video. I remember having this idea in my head as I was trying my drop bump there for Prehistoric. Don't know why I didn't try it but it's good to know this prec gets pwned for the second time naturally.
PSM 2 grind 0:28 : Love the packer setup and execution
Drop bump 2 gap 0:42 : looks very hard to get a good dropbump there with the speed you reach. Godlike stunt tho
Ramps 2 BB grind 0:52 : felt fillerish to me
P2B 2 BB 1:05 : I like the stunt but those billboards have been landed in so many ways there that I can't keep track of what's new and what's old  :lol:
Freeway bump 2 crane 1:14 : You owned this stunt which was old in SA with nrg. The freeway is a nice touch which adds to the vehicle diverity.
[MaCi]P2B 2 BB 1:24 : you never cease to amaze me with your epic spots man. Flawless execution.
Backbump MAG 1:32 : Another filler imho
Bump 2 grind 1:41 : nat bump to long distance rail grind.. did you summon Eddeman's spirit for this one? Sick!
[Nem]PSM 2 prec 1:56 : it's a cute stunt. Didn't you use it in another video before?
Bump 2:05 : I think this is old but still great execution!
Boost 2 prec 2:18 : someone landed the middle part if I'm not mistaken but the left tower is tops of the tops
[Haywire]Drop PSM 2:33 : very clever psm setup. Nice stunt dude!
Bump wallhit 2 grind 2:44 : I know how crazy it is to get that grind on VC engine with those spins in midair. Didn't like the execution a lot but I bet it's the best you could get
CSM 2:53 : it's a good stunt. Maybe better for a collab
Finisher 3:13 : one of the most creative finds ALL TIME on vc. Great finisher choice.

I've watched this solo about 5 times already and I'll still be rolling it over and over again. It's just so good. The edit was also top notch and the music was very fitting and enjoyable! I have 0 problems with the lack of intro or outro. In fact I would've skipped them anyways rofl. You and Rainbow are my my favorite active stunters. I love your styles!! Can't wait to see more from you in the future.  :a-cheer:

The atmosphere of the video was amazing. It felt like a 2009ish edit so I got kinda nostalgic. As you mention in the description it is truly one of your best works (after the crazy stuff you sent for Morgoth). The amount of stuck methods landed here isn't really my cup of tea but the overall quality always compensates! Great job my man..

It's amazing everytime I see new content from you. I loved the double bumps, drop bumps and precisions especially that infernus landing on the chimney which should've been the finisher imho. Simply the best infy stunt on SA I've seen in a while. Loved that creative wallride to grind at los santos' airport too. That just shows that your vision for the game is the same as that of Taz and MMM. Also the p2b to wallride to rail grind near los santos beach rocked so hard dude. You must've been so patient to land all of those beauties. The song and the edit were very fitting and likeable. 10/10 man. Keep up the good work!  :cheernutz:

Edit: Is the title inspired by Lord of the rings Lore?

The music reminded me of Barney's Solo Monolith, was this also Dimmu Borgir? I didn't read the Outro Credits. Gonna rewatch later again!  :)

Yes both Monolith and Annasthetic songs are Dimmu Borgir and also from the same album. In a matter of fact Dimmu became my favorite band since Barney's solo. Thanks for the kind words man. I'm a big fan of yours too! And don't forget to watch the outro because it's a masterpiece by itself.  :lol:

Also this natural bump in LCS 2:30, how did you bump that man? I was never thinking of bumping that think that I landed also this roof but with a psm (lamed). Then after your video I tried it and never got a decent bump of it.

There are two things that will help you land that naturally: use packer as a runup extension and bump the right side of the platform as it's closer to the ground and gives better and more consistent bumps. I can send you the rep if needed.

I forgot to put AllBeast in the "Thanks to" list. He was kind enough to help me fix the broken dff of the finisher roof.
