finale | A Tribes: Ascend Montage

time2 mo agoview2 views

This is a re-upload of fireb0rn's "finale" montage that he uploaded back in 2013 (likely 2 June 2013).

For these montages, I don't necessarily think they were ever the most impressive in terms of clips. You could criticize them and say that they include a lot of groundpounding, a heavy use of the shotgun, and a lot of the midairs are very close-range. However, a lot of the clips are still impressive to this day, and more importantly, I view these montages more like how I view the LANDIS beta montage. What I mean by that is I think of them more like timepieces that make you feel a certain way. For me, I think my favorite parts about these montages are the intros. They're high-fidelity, there's no HUD, they use pretty music, and they just make you feel nostalgic for those times. Maybe it doesn't work if you weren't there at the time, but I guess I'll never know.

I like to think that my obsessive downloading paid off and that these montages would be lost media if not for me since fireb0rn did not re-upload these anywhere publicly as far as I'm aware.

There is currently a re-upload on YouTube but in all likelihood it's just an upload of the copy I provided the community before it was uploaded, so I figured I'd put it here as well. Fireb0rn said that he removed his Tribes montages from YouTube due to being demonetized because of the music he used, so I think it's best that these don't go on YouTube anyway.

I don't have the original description for this video. I'm also not 100% certain that the title was formatting quite the way I have it,. I just followed the title pattern from Surreal and Dreaming.
