What did you use to capture your source video?
Because honestly guy, I believe you need to improve the quality of your source material before we can really talk about your editing in a serious light.

i liked the slide + shooting in slow motion parts u did,
shows how amazing this game is

yeah i know the video quality is crappy i cant figure out what it is i use a capture card and when i record and edit it the video looks like no quality issues then when i put it on youtube it does that any idea on what i can do

Oh wow. That's some low low quality. And a horrible backing track.

The video may still be processing on YouTube. I've had videos be choppy for some time after uploading them. Eventually they work fine. With that said, can we do without the horrible sound tracks that accompany every "montage" these days? I'm a montage-hater, so take this with a grain of salt.

i understand alot of people hate the music with the montages but i think they are just boring with out the music and i mean look at alot of the montages out there for COD and halo majority of them have music in them granted mines prolly not the best but i think it fits the video

Definatly don't mean to be rude, but to me only the first kills actually seems worthy of a montage ?

not rude at all its good feedback thanks

After watching this a couple time, and trying to come up with some kind of critique that didn't sound like I was being a complete [censored] I think I've got some ideas for ya.

First, go and watch some montages and pay attention to the edits. See where they fade, break, or change according to the action in the video and the music.
Only keep the most essential video when you are editing. Everything else tends to lead the watcher to being bored.
Only add video effects (slow down, speed up, discolors, etc) when it is necessary to help grab the attention of the viewer. When everything has an effect on it, it doesn't carry the weight it should.

And finally, go watch some more directors and montages. Writers read, directors watch.
