That's a custom weapon, regrettably... but wait til you find out who's wielding it!
EDIT: And ironically enough, that segment was NOT meant to tease Staff Fighting.

Love it, even though I ended up on the cutting room floor. 
Correction: On second viewing I did spot Agent Cerulean twice, first one up the ramp in the Dilemma Diabloique section and in one of the subsequent fight scenes. Mea culpa.

well done ole' chap!
Damn, the trailer is so well done.
Best of all, its sells the I22 prety well, because after I see the trailer cant wait to play I22! Makes me want it NAO!
EPIC!
Congrats D_R!
Btw, who is that Tsoo woman at 2:18 sporting Tsoo tattoo shoulders on the female body and a new corset?
Me want!
If I ever run a video game company...you're hired!
Once again, awesome trailer as usual.
The first few scenes focusing on Statesman's death made me really want a SSA trailer/overview. It hit me harder than I expected. Still kinda teary.

That particular one, you get to slug it out with in one of the new mid-level arcs.

Wow.
I mean, I know I was there for some of the filming and all ... but it's interesting to see what things looked like from the camerawoman's perspective rather than from my own. I'm so used to seeing the backside of my characters that it's sometimes a bit of a shock to be able to see them (let alone see them fighting!) from other angles ... and what they look like "when next to" other people in group shots like this.
Since I was in the filming, it was a lot of fun to try and "look for my characters" in the various shots. The one thing I was worried about was the possibility of being a "camera hog" and standing out too much. I'm glad to see that *didn't* happen because of the way that Michelle cut the scenes together.
Last time, for the Issue 21 Trailer, Redlynne got a "walk on" role courtesy of a demorecord file that turned out really nice. This time ... for the Issue 22 Trailer (in order of appearance) ... my characters Ms Terry, Redlynne and Leggs all got a little bit of screen time (and not too much, thankfully!), and I'm really proud to have been allowed to be a part of this really sweet production!
And yes, Michelle, I still think that Black Pebble "owes you lunch" for all the work you do for this game. 
It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

At first, when I was beginning to make videos, shooting from behind was the only way I knew how. Then I forced myself to learn how to play with the camera at different angles - front, 3/4, profile, moving, etc. And it just opened up film possibilities for me. I can't do it for extended lengths - eventually I need to know what's in front of me - but shooting from near floor level looking up as two characters slug it out is FAR more appealing then just filming from the back.|

(I've told people before, the best place to learn is in either a low level zone or in the AE. Get the hang of running around without fear of being attacked, and practice, practice, practice.)
And BP will never buy me lunch - my luck, at the Pummit, he *MIGHT* offer to buy me a Mai Tai... which I despise drinking.

Good job!
you could have it all

I will let you down
I will make you <3
What the frizz? I swear I didn't see this a couple of minutes ago....
Anyways...
Gorgeous work, as per usual.
I still love how DR's trying to actually keep Statesman's death relevant with her epilogue to Part 5 and now this, when the devs aren't even going to try to do anything in game with it until I23. They should've planned out his death a little better on the schedule, or at least held a memorial service in game.
Brilliant as always, D_R. Watched it several times, and I love it. Your videos usually get me more hyped for an issue than I thought I could be.
Every time you release a video like this, I get a little bit more fed up with Paragon for not paying you. You deserve it, and who knows how much of an impact this could make on the main page, as an announcement, or on their facebook page?
Fingers crossed for you for the future.
Love the video as usual Great work!

I'm late, but yeah, just to echo what everyone else has been saying, this is really amazing, great job.
Awesome as always!
...though I wonder if your opening might be better suited for i23. I get the distinct feeling that when Statesman is removed, the shake-up might make the salute appropriate there as well.
very cool as always DR
Really enjoyed it... it's getting me excited for I22

Samuraiko,
As far as the 'missing man' formation is concerned, you might have to do a live shot/demorecord cut and feature a small number of player attendees as demorecord characters...that'd be my best compromise while maintaining the integrity of the shot.
I confess though I'm totally stumped as to where you'd even hold a memorial service for him. Nowhere seems really appropriate with all the other giant statuary floating around. The only things that vaguely seem appropriate are the Shadow Shard for its sense of grandeur, or in Paragon City one of the smaller parks behind City Hall in Atlas.
Or, standing in for Atlas, one of the many beautiful and scenic views of Praetoria.
