Okay, here's a little thought. Maybe make Mike and Dave show up in Freeman's Mind HL2 when you get around to it. Freeman could ask himself if one of the cops sounded like him...
Haha, part of me likes to imagine that Mike is one of the Freeman clones that may have been created during the teleporting. It'd explain how Mike knows Eddie.
What really makes me like this, is it doesn't have nearly as much funding, or as big of a team working on this show, as Red vs Blue does. However, even without nice funding, and amazing animators, this Civil Protection show is STILL AWESOME! Imagine the kind of fantastic stuff we'd get if Ross had funding, popularity, and a better network of people to call on for assistance.
Well I've started on Ep. 5 and I have ideas for more. I'm trying to get a team together so I can make these faster. Really the only thing discouraging me from making more is all the animation that has to be done with it. The more help I can get with that, the faster these will come out.
WHOA. I've seen this before but I just noticed. The train scene was about the best editing I have ever seen. Great job on compiling all those HL2 maps!
crockettjvinson: Yeah, I record it at a really high framerate (since it's not in real-time), then downsample that to get the motion blur using Virtualdub scripts. cardinalis: It's just HL2 single player and the SDK.
I used the Source SDK to make this. I did the motion blur by recording the material at a higher framerate than downsampling it. Part of it was done with an AVS script in Virtualdub, the other part was a Premiere plugin.
Always random for me at the end there, but 10 years later and it still never fails to get me in the mood for Chinese food, or at the very least cook something quick and slap it on top of some rice! I miss machinima like this :')
I can just hear Dave saying in his distressingly laid back voice as he stands braced - "For behold...I am the one! Do-er of the most awesomest stuff you have ever behelden."
Anyone else got really physics-y in their head thinking about the air flow n shit during the awesome section? Only to find out ''I know fuck all about any of this''

John123Z: Clapping my hands together Christian: Yeah, although not this episode, I probably didn't spend more than 2 hours on this one. That's why David Ferguson's name is in the credits, he did the majority of the head bobs for me.
OMG WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIS LEGS ON THE TRAIN!!?!?! it's a issue with the source engine, a NPC with custom animations and AI ontop of a moving object can cause animation glitches as the NPC is trying to keep up
+Flajarkin also if you're on an object moving incredibly fast it's a good idea to lean into the wind so you don't go flying backwards as easily, and to make sure your footing is stable (you would probably end up shifting one foot several times during the ride to maintain stable and safe footing)
I know I saw this years ago, but this is still the best one of these videos, I swear. That was just a fun ride! Bonus points for the _Jazz Jackrabbit_ music at the end!
Im surprised that nobody caught the G-man walking by Dave before his partner came around. Was there a coincidence for him to be there, or something else?
rofl!! that was great, on a side note that was really impressive the train ride throughout the whole Half-life 2 world almost, seamless too.. bet that took some work.. good job, keep up the good work, looking forward to next episode

I think Dave and Mike are the reasons the Combine later enforced memory expulsion. Mike or Dave mentioned how the Combine came around "a few years previously" meaning that "Civil Protection" takes place just about 16-17 years before Half-Life 2. I wonder where they went in the following 20 years.
Even if any of them has -savescumming- timeloop powers, they'll sure leave the other in some crapsack worldline behind. I'll never understand how a lot of folk in FPS game universes can easily handle wind shears and motion shakedowns when riding trains. 2:00: Oh, the Gordon Frohman "vampire" is still OK. 3:21: I blame the wall, not the barrier. So, is Dave gonna use the boat? Poor Mike. Even if Dave's actions feel like a big-lipped alligator moment, at least he had fun. 3:59: Hey there, manipulative bastard. You gonna visit the dastardly Frohman, the manic Moint Pan, or your capped son Colatta? Is any kind of foreign -queasine- culinary like Chinese food still available in this UU-occupied world? Sweet, they also got the Jazz Jackrabbit and Gothic OSTs. Judging by the comments, this lead to a wait of six years. Good thing I can binge what came after, but...
OMG nice work, i like how you blended the different levels together and the train surfing was so cool, and it was a hillarious ending!!! you gotta show me an tut on trains, in sdk.
awsome job on the voice acting by the way guys ^^ voice acting can make or break videos alot of the time, but you got it just perfect (one of you guys even sound like Ray Romano)
