Late to the party but yeah, Hudson is the type to do Close Quarters and up in their face to beat them down, While piccaso reminds me of MARSOC Operatives, using detractions and Rifles or long range weapons to take them down form a fair, Like a marksmen but overall both were honestly pretty unique and they had reasons to do what they did, to take revenge.

Gurofriends is definitely way more different than BMC, It's way more slow and tactical. BMC is more fast paced compared to this one, and also has great story telling. Many improvements have been made, though I would like to see more of this slow paced tactical type of madness animations.

Now THIS THIS should be the standard for how blood is done in Madness Animations imo. Blood adds so much more to the violence in this type of shit, and although it isn't as that over the top as Krinkle's masterpieces, the gunfights add some brutal sense of weight. Love the blood pools. For some reason, Krinkles didn't add any blood pools to death characters, or any blood at all post MC4, so seeing a MC fan-animation with this amount of blood makes me happy!

The detail here is insane, every single action made sense and it actually felt like the protagonists were more skilled than the enemy instead of just being superhuman. I don’t think there’s a moment where the enemy misses a shot for no reason, like they only miss because they can’t see, or the target is moving at an angle, or because they are distracted. Also, that shotgun head explosion was amazing, the fact that the dude was visibly on edge justifying him being trigger happy and shooting at the head, then Hudson rushes in and turns it on him. Favorite animation I’ve seen

this has to be most unique way of animating in madness style I've ever seen, it's so much more slower paced compared to most animations, because of this there is a lot of nice attention to detail, I really fuckin liked the blackout part, it was done so well, especially with the gun shots lightning up the room, well done man, it's so damn brutal.

[@sealsealin9959]

Its prob one of favorite madness movies of all time. The combat was hardcore, the teamwork between the characters was refreshing, the story was good and the music, while not madness specific, compliments very well the action. My onlt criticism would be the sound of gunfire and impact felt a bit weak, prob to not lap over the soundtrack. Either way, this was an enjoyable video.

[@chainsawplayin]

It was like Sanford and Deimos all over again!

[@JoeJoe-py5hy]

Like I said in my Newgrounds review, This is amazing and deserves more attention. Everything about this animation is perfect. The slow pace at the beginning was a mild problem but it got faster as it went on. My tip is to keep the pace speed for all your animations the same as it was near the end. Amazing movie, probably my personal favorite for MD21.

[@MarcoAdventures]

Personally, I like that it starts as slow paced. Instead of keeping it consistently fast, in my opinion, it would've made the speed get bland and less satisfying. It's like the beginning part was winding up for the fast section at the end.

[@reidj2226]

This isn't something you see alot but this is action Madness Combat fight made with actual thinking. Protagonist doesn't rush and speed blitz every room but instead encounter hard situation and make it out with proper tactics like set up bombs, kill guards and block door on extra entrance, or take better weapons. They're not total psycho killers and don't overkill when enemy is clearly down like the ones they stab in "throat". It even bites back at them one time when grunt was still alive and tried to shot them from other room. And i like how you can animate on different planes of action with protagonist fighting in two rooms simultaneously or some grunt falling off screen and everything like that. I love how much trust they have in each other, the first few rooms where one takes them down with melee and other finished them off with shotgun. They take advantage of environment, occasionally shooting lamps or glass above them. The darkness scene was also neat showcase of character's unique ability while other couldn't see and waited for high five signal. The last room clear with camera going back and forth between them and their enemies death. And especially my personal favourite moments is how they used vent, then blocked grunts' view, started shooting to distract them from any possible vent noises and finally payoff of that tactic. All this in great ending of beatdown before letting antagonist just suicide. Extra point for not making enemies just die from every hit they get.
