06:11 I love how you accurately depicted cops not caring about NPCs crashing into them but will fight for their live once Niko slightly bumps their car.
I don't remember cops bothering me for bumping into them a lot. If you brake at low speed and bump into them them, they won't chase you and will comment something. Fender bender is just an every day thing in nyc (lc).
We're supposed to start with these operation programs first. That's major boring sh*t. Let's do something a little more fun. How about... bowling training.
Anyone else got 2012 TH-cam vibes from this? So damn good. R.I.P. to Yeardly Diamond, who was a big part of my GTA entertainment during the hype days for GTA V.
Yeardly Diamond, I remember that. And all the Machinima movies 😂 I was getting pretty good at making my own movies for that time, but I only had Mods and the ingame movie maker thing. 😂
I don't think people are realising how much work was put into this. it's a studio level animation and the only thing separating it from a triple a job is slightly the graphics and the comedic style of it all. one was due to limitations from gta 4 textures and the other was intentional. i'm all happy for what we got but this must have taken more than a year to pull off if he was alone or with a few friends. did he get paid? was he hoping to get some worth from views? does he have a patreon or similar? what did he do all this on. there's way too much animation, cinematography and detail to be thrown for free as it means we won't get another. most of such level animations don't ever make it because of burnout or just lack of funding. great piece btw. laughing through and through. congrats on the skills and discipline to stick through it
@@b.1570TBH, it's just drive and kill some guy 😭 GTA 5 thankfully introduced some variety, with the various heist setups and escapes and then the amazing boat mission with Franklin and Michael and the train mission with Trevor and then how he flies the plane into another plane, it's just so epic and keeps you engaged. I love GTA 4 but the mission variety is something I saw myself not excited because I already knew what type of missions it has
@@mr.knewyork5843 Exactly. I like GTA 4 by it's story and atmosphere (also the driving that I like alot) but it's one of the flaws that very few points out. makes sense story wise since your a hitman doing jobs to other people but gameplay wise it's quite repetitve. Only the crucial moments it saves it.
6:13 the police ignoring npc's, becoming agressive the moment the player touched their car, and then running over civilians as it tries to persue the player, this is GTA in its purest form.
Average Mission in GTA V: litterally defeating a private army and robbing a bank with a jiggernaut armor Average Mission in GTA IV: go and kill that guy
I've been dreaming of this type of replays of the missions you played in GTA. @rockstargames please make this type of series out of every mission you finished!
This is a cinematic masterpiece! How is no one talking about the sheer brilliance of this? This is exactly the kind of early 2000s action spy film-esque content I didn't know I needed in GTA IV form. My compliments to the chef! I must know how this was made.
This feels like one of those scenarios I would dream up in my head as a kid but never had the means to be able to manifest it in real life Amazing work
Holy shit, i mean Niko is confirmed to be the deadliest Protagonist with by far the most confirmed kills of any other GTA, but damn those moves were Spider-man or Matrix levels of acrobatics lol.
I love the use of original GTA IV sound effects. The sound design of that game is so iconic. Also the part where the police get slammed by the enemies but start chasing Niko because he barely tapped their car was GOLDEN.
What’s blowing my mind is that you managed to use the GTA gun shot audio, running and door opening animations for Niko and the car physics while also rendering this in a separate program of some kind. It’s wild! Awesome job!
So many of these shots were genuinely cinematic. I mean I was already impressed with the beginning segment but this just got better and better, the chase segment is easily my favorite it just has so many good shots that make it feel like a serious production. Like really well done not just from an animation standpoint, but from a cinematographic perspective in terms of getting the right shots and developing the sequences in a manner that looks nearly realistic as if though cameras were actually planted in specific places. I love those panning shots like when the bus hits the red car at 4:37 because it just changes the flow perfectly while still be harmonious with the movement, even as it follows up with the next shot which gives us another angle. Super well done.
It'll spread throughout the land, for its too awesome to not be noticed I just hope folks will credit the maker (some intentionally hide the watermark or leave out who made it) Guy deserves all the praise from this fine art 👏🐴
Not only is this amazing visually and cinematically, but it's a fantastic culmination of elements from GTA IV, Half-Life 2, and Need For Speed: Carbon. Thank you so much.
This is incredible. Hands down the greatest IV machinima I've ever watched, by far. There's so much details to appreciate, from the incredible hand to hand combat, to interacting with the liberty city map objects, furniture and architecture, makes it feel absolutely alive. I can't imagine how long it took you and I'd be really pleased to see how this was made. My guess is that it was mainly made in UE4, perhaps? I have so much questions, you earned a lifetime subscriber. And I really hope this reaches at least a million views, highly deserved!
Everything about this video is absolutely perfect. This is genuine art, the sound effects are my favorite thing about it, you absolutely nailed the GTA 4 atmosphere. I hope this blows up for you, top tier content! 👏 Also 1:26 was some of the funniest shit i've seen in a long time 🤣🤣
Uh, this is amazing. Almost criminally underviewed like most of the hidden gems on TH-cam. You, fellow, have earned a subscription and my praise for your work.
This is insanely good. I can't even imagine how long it took to make this. I really appreciate the amount of destruction. Especially if you think about that a lot of used assets/props are not breakable in the original game at all. Such a shame to me that this video doesn't have more views. This is a masterpiece!
I am gobsmacked by the quality of direction. This was incredible. Let alone everything else. Wow, just become a film director. Props to everything else too - the details, the well timed dark comedy, the tech know how to get this to work. AAA work.
Meanwhile in actual GTA 4; you either take cover or crouch while taking your time to shoot the most still-standing enemies, and moving towards your objective with weirdly sluggish delayed animations and even more weirder is the fact that it doesn't occurs with every animation.
Top-notch AMAZING!!! Watching the whole animation in 7 minutes made my jaw drop.. I am looking forward to your other future animations, my dude, that's fucking spectacular 👌
Shit... I had completely forgotten the part where Niko gets those sick parkouring skills all of a sudden and start parkouring around LC in the original game.
this is a MASTERPIECE! i love the graphics and the fact you used all the cars from gta 4, didnt expect to see Pinnacle or Fortune in here. i also love how everything is detailed, like at 4:26 we can see Oracle ramming the parked green Admiral, and Admiral's alarm goes off and the blinkers work too! even though we only see it for a second. the destruction of cars is really Matrix like, its like the gta 4 got remastered by R* and they updated the car crash system, fascinating! i laughed at the part when the phone came up after respawning at 7:40. i used to struggle a lot when playing gta 4 for the first time on my xbox 360 back in 2008, the sms sound used to haunt me when i was failing the missions. great job with the animation, looking forward to seeing you creating masterpieces!
This was seriously one of the best things I've ever watched, you earned a sub my friend. Please keep them coming. This was so high quality, my jaw dropped at multiple points.
That was absolutely amazingly done! This was a random recommendation on the front page, didn't know what to expect but was really enjoying this, can't imagine the time and effort that must've went into it! Also that 6:10-6:19 GTA moment was hilarious 😆 Earned a new sub man 👍
That was very thrilling, gripped me tight AND fun. Congrats sir, you have created a masterpiece! GTA IV is the only HD GTA game I've played till now and mannnnn whenever I can afford a gaming rig, I'll pray that I can make GTA IV look like this!
Man you did awesome pieco of work, very very impressive cut scenes, and attention to detail for car speeding and all of effects with person fights. 100%. Perfect.
I have just one question - HOW ??????? I loved it ! so much attention to detail, action packed, smooth camera work, loved all the additional sound effects and the way you sliced in the humor with the best familiar GTA IV bits, I also loved the NFS style scaffolding destruction to block the road, the police running down an NPC and of course the bus drift ! This is one of those times the internet is actually being good. I subscribed and I hope to see more of your work !
I... the weather, the character models, the ingame gun sounds, the ingame car sounds, the occasional man slaughter, the police, everything about this video is perfect.
This is absolutely stunning. The only question that kept popping in my head throughout the video was, "how did Cadancard even make this?!" It's a piece of art, great stuff.
06:11 I love how you accurately depicted cops not caring about NPCs crashing into them but will fight for their live once Niko slightly bumps their car.

That trademark *"Niko"* walk and the casual shove to open the door then the sprinting is the _cleanest_ I've ever seen animated
