Meet the sandvich tells us two important things: scout can remain conscious with no blood, and heavy's normal melee damage after eating a sandvich is strong enough to knock all the blood out of someone
Fun fact: In Meet the Scout, The Heavy is seen with both a Sandvich and Shotgun, meaning that either The Heavy can now have 2 secondary slots, or all classes can
Likely all of the classes can. Would be useful for Demoman, since you cannot have the sticky launcher if you have the Chargin' Targe equipped in your secondary.
Sniper being able to slowly stack stored Jarates in his inventory the longer he camps in 1 spot would be a bit scary. Imagine the enemy Sniper gets in a high, hard to reach spot, owning your team, then he lobs Jarate after Jarate at anyone who dares to get too close
And imagine this: the Jarate effects STACK. And, additionally, if you were hit by enough Jarate from one sniper, like 5 or 8, it plays a 3rd person cinematic of the class shooting themselves in the head with their weapon, killing them instantly as they would rather die than suffer that fate.
There is a comedic turnabout from this, since he can't carry them all a stationary sniper would get the same role as artillery. Team needs to push? throw 15 jarate and let the minicrits rule. Also spies would have a laugh as well because he can't carry them the moment sniper is unscoped, not crouching, not standing still , he would be wasting his stash. Meaning spy targetting sniper would be not only viable but necesary.
The throwable Sapper is interesting because Anton adapted that as an actual function for the "Meat Fortress" Spy kit in 'Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades'.
Maybe you can grab bread using the same prompt to pick up dropped weapons, then teleport it. It spawns a reskinned pipe that homes in on any nearby players (and do damage to anyone there, teammates, yourself, and enemies included)
TBF, for Meet the Heavy, he claims Sasha shoots at 10,000 rounds per minute. In game Sasha shoots 4 bullets 10 times a second, meaning that in-game he shoots only 2400 rounds per minute. So if it was accurate, heavy's rate of fire would be over quadrupled.
Actually Heavy's minigun shoots slightly less than 10 times per second. It shoots once per .105 second, which means it shoots 2284 bullets per minute. It's becaus of the game's tickrate, and minigun shoots once per 7 ticks (tickrate of the game is about 66).
I remember when you used to be able to detonate stickies while taunting. Fun times... it's a shame you can't do it anymore because blowing up an enemy as you taunt them is hilarious, but I understand why they did it. Also, Meet the Spy introduces friendly fire.
For Pyro I think it's interesting that he used his axe to lock a door and trap a Medic in. How would it work, if in the game you could sacrifice your melee to temporarily block a door?
@@BananaHoovyJ.Rabbit idea: certain melees block certain doors Long blocks the doors in the mtp video when he kills the medic Short can do the oppisite and open doors that are blocked by breaking them somewhere, heavy basically is all combined, can break doors, lock them with his hands, and can open them normally
@@retrobat1631 Rain is quite effective at large fires, though this would be a small, just intense fire. Might be a close match. In truth I just forgot about the rainm
That's one of the things that fall under plot rather than gameplay though. I mean the game does sorta have a day night cycle in that night versions of many maps exist, it's just that no match lasts long enough for it to matter.
Just wanted to point out that, spy who was disguised as scout, touches the briefcase without his disguise dropping while picking it up, so spy would ALSO have the ability to not drop disguises when touching the intelligence since the briefcase moves when he does, he would be able to pick it up while disguised.
The bit in Meet The Sniper where demo falls into the pit and it blows up sounds pretty accurate. Do you remember how many times Valve had to patch out a payload finale getting set off by exploits that dropped some random entity into the hole? Because it was a lot. At least two or three times, minimum.
Two notes: 1. Demoman used to be able to detonate stickies while taunting. This was removed. 2. Just because Sniper can _produce_ multiple Jarate does not mean that he can _carry_ multiple Jarate.
One last thing apparently touching the intelligence doesn't automatically undisguise spies. When the Blu Scout (Red Spy) touches the briefcase he doesn't instantly drop his Scout disguise.
He also doesn't pick it up, so instead the change is probably that disguised spies can't pick up intelligence at all (rather than dropping their disguise immediately).
@@kickin_ass Yeah but that's one of those things that is more explained by it being a video, not a game, rather than an actual difference in feature. He specifically said that he wasn't going over things that were plot related and this is definitely one of those. You just don't have the option to touch the intelligence without picking it up in game for fairly obvious reasons.
Since soldiers are immune(?) to sentries now I think it's fair to buff the sapper massively otherwise soldier becomes the new close-range sentry counter.
Could lead to a funny unintentional nerf to the Wrangler of you’re spreading your sentries out, though. All or nothing on the Wrangler, so using it with one sentry still disabled the rest and lets the enemy punch some holes wherever you aren’t. Maybe the shield wouldn’t be as broken in that case. Though if a player grouped their four sentries together, it’d go back to being busted.
interesting thing to note: due to the dead ringer and your eternal reward existing now, blu spy could technically have been red spy all along in meet the soy
I could imagine a mix of TF2 and some kind of real time strategy conquering game. Capturing territory, moving supplies, fighting on battlefields with the classes, it could be cool.
11:50 I would like to add, Pyro clearly blockades the Medic inside the barn with his fire axe before lighting it ablaze. Implying that barricading doors with your melee is now a part of Pyro's moves or a part of TF2 in general.
I just realized for the Soldier avoiding sentries thing: What if it's partially based on facial recognition? If they had programmed the sentries to just shoot at blue targets that were moving then it'd end up targeting things like water, moving props, or the bomb cart, so they'd also have to add a second layer, which would be facial recognition. Since Soldier covers half his face all the time, and the sentries would be based on his un-helmeted appearance, then the sentries wouldn't be able to tell it was him. Facial recognition on its own wouldn't work, since the Red and Blu variants of both teams look exactly the same (minus colors obviously). And no, the sentry didn't kill him in Meet the Engineer, unless they were trying to shoot past him and he got caught in the crossfire (which granted doesn't make the most sense given the angles it was shooting at but whatever, good enough).
wouldnt they also have to make pyro be ignored since their mask obstructs their face and isnt team colored? or maybe its because soldier was too crazy to get a good picture of his face
In meet the scout heavy uses shotgun and the sandwich at the same time, so heavy gets a buff of getting 2 different slots - one for lunchbox and other for shotguns
@@TF-Boom So basically the TF2 heavy briefly got replaced with a Planetside 2 heavy, since it is possible for a Planetside 2 heavy to carry 2 primaries, which can mean the TR chaingun+a pump action shotgun, a stimpack (obligatory for Planetside 2 heavies, they're all addicted), and a knife. TR also has a black and red color scheme so obviously this makes perfect sense.
In Meet the Spy, when he disguises as the medic, he doesn't get the glasses. I always thought it could be added to the game that he cannot replicate the glasses. Can make for a funny interaction when trying to tell apart a spy that is disguised as a medic.
He already does that just more obvious. I don't know if it would solve the disquse kit tho. Remove all weapon cosmetics, small acsesorries such as glasses, scars and what not. It would probably result in better spy gameplay as a whole.
I actually think Demo was supposed to have a constant trail of explosions behind him as they’re also present in the scene right after the first interview segment. I could only imagine they were removed for the obvious reason of hard countering spy or some other balance reasons
@@caoistico669 "meet the heavy" was the first video in the series, which is why little to nothing happens in it (understandable, it's a perfectly good first SFM video) and why it's most accurate to what playing Heavy is like. Pyro was the last class to get a video which is why it got so much cinematography.
Also (excluding things I've seen other commenters mention): -Pyroland makes the entire map nearly invisible -Pyro can block doors with their axe -Breaking Demo's bottle during a taunt blinds him -Heavy's new emblem could just be a cosmetic -Engi can place more than 2 teleporters (Demo goes through one in Expiration Date, and comes out the other with beer sometime later, meaning the first tele's exit must have taken him where the beer is and he used a separate one to get home) -Sentries shoot enemy gibs (if they're moving) -Players get bandages added to their char model at low health -Damage causes negative status effects as it accumulates (Scout is forced to crawl, Demo is forced into a wheelchair) -Either all of the Soldiers in MtM were at low health, the Quick-Fix gives a damage boost as well (perhaps its Über now also gives Kritz), the low-damage Homing Rocket also increases damage taken/reduces HP on the wearer, or Heavy's damage is increased -Spy's knife remains inside ragdolls after a backstab and must be retrieved or replaced -Spy is not targeted by sentries, even when not disguised -Spy (or all players) can choose not to take the enemy intelligence when touching it -Swearing in-game is bleeped (perhaps by voice detection AI) -Players are 50/50 RED team and BLU team in MVM -Game is more gory altogether -Melee attacks might deal headshot damage (Soldier in MtSo, Pyro in MtP, Scout in MtM, and Spy in MtSp [but not with the knife] all killed someone in one hit by melee attacking their head)
And heavy states his gun does 10000 rounds/minute. And currently, it only shoots 4 rounds every .105 seconds, or 2284 rounds per second. Enjoy mauling anyone in line of site
The bandages mechanic could be pretty cool actually Imagine you get damaged, and when you heal up by medkits instead of Medic's medigun, you would get bandages on your player model, until you're healed by medic or die and respawn And to make it funnier, bandages would cover more and more of body, until it would completely cover the whole model in bandages on top of bandages
I remember when I first saw "Meet the Medic". Back then I had no proper knowledge of Valve or the game, ao I assumed that it had a mechanic in which, as you took damage, your character would summon medical equipment to hold themselves together.
The Scout's bat strangle attack sounds like it would work like L4D2's Jockey's ability, making him able to yank his victim around (and in the line of fire of allied sentries/players or into environmental hazards).
The ubercharge duration in Meet The Medic is also MUCH longer than the one in-game. I'm also curious just how much faster Heavies minigun would fire if the actual RPM was accounted for.
Collectively, it seems, we all forgot Scout wall-jumping before the final hit on the Heavy. While this can be chalked up to him simply double-jumping, he visibly grabs onto the crate before jumping off, meaning there are at least minimal parkour elements to Scout now.
One thing for meet the demo tho: you used to be able to taunt while exploding your stickies, it was changed after an update to fix issues with looping taunts that change when you press your mouse buttons.
I thought it was just high-five trolling or because they would use it to look around corners. 3000 hours in the game but I was today years old when I learned that there are taunts that use mouse inputs.
@@CityState_of_Valletta looking back into it, it might be possible for that to be the cause or a rare case of valve fixing an issue before it became a problem, unless there was a mouse key taunt before Mannrobics. As a note, clicking the right or left mouse buttons while using mannrobics will play different animations, assuming you're currently in the one where the arms are clapping. There are some more taunts since that use mouse keys but I can't remember the names of them
Also, Meet the Demoman came out to coincide with the game's release in 2007, so it's likely that they were indeed playing the beta. The endcard of the video even jokes on it.
1:24 fun fact, the sandvich's mechanics do reference this (as far as tf2 wiki is concerned) as when a sandvich is specifically dropped due to its user dying it I think heals scout specifically 75 health while only 50 to other classes.
I’m so torn because the videos as they are are all so entertaining, iconic and i wouldn’t have them being any other way but man it would’ve been nice to see a more in-depth and accurate display of Engineers’s capabilities.
A gameplay accurate Meet the Engineer would have him rush everywhere in a near constant state of panic while desperately trying to maintain and rebuild his buildings.
One thing blue either missed or straight up ignored is that in the meet the spy video, heavy is clearly running in his normal speed while having his gun revved up.
We wouldn't be able to play the game if it happend. Also heavies fire rate was decreased in game. If what he says is true heavy would melt his foe within miliseconds.
9:39 One thing I would like to point out is that like with Soldier the sentry doesn’t detect an uncloaked spy from behind. In the normal game when you walk up behind a sentry undisguised no matter what position you are in it will always detect and fire on you. Another thing of note is that the sapper disables the sentry without it actually touching the sentry first
Meet the Sandvich does have one thing that doesn't exist ingame and is also mentioned in Poker Night at the Inventory: the Sandvich makes Heavy go into an uncontrollable murderous rage, including against what seems like friendlies. Additionally, Scout wields the Pain Train in Expiration Date, and Demo gets a shotgun in Mann Vs. Machine, but that's probably nitpicking at that point.
Heavy punches out all of Scout’s blood so I’m going to make him trigger multiple stacks of Bleed on crit, and Scout automatically becomes immune to bleed if he’s below a certain health threshold, until death.
Soldier's dialogue taunted Heavy when he's attempting to break his spine, calling him RED team ladies. In other words, Soldier and Scout were from BLU.
I like how every single realistically fatal blow to an enemy is explained as a "random crit", because of how we got used to these weird game mechanics lol Edit: Ok that might be cheating, but heavy in meet the scout is CLEARLY eating a sandwich while holding a shotgun at the same time, which should grant heavy a second secondary slot (yeah I know.) reserved for lunchbox items and/or other consumables, while the other one is only for the shotguns
Seeing the Spy stats gave me an idea for a new disguise kit: Attacking while disguised doesn't remove it, instead makes it flicker in and out slightly between the Spy and the disguised class for 2-3 seconds for enemy to just barely be able to see it, it also has a tiny sound que for audibility too. (Only takes effect when not swapping class disguises, so you'll have to be undisguised first for it to work(?)).
@@Aaa-vp6ug You have a chance of being seen if you attack, that's what the flickering between the disguise and yourself is. But I understand your concern that it'd be op if done poorly or too subtle. It would (hopefully) take/need a trained eye to spot it out. But if the flicker wouldn't work because of Source engine limitations, then maybe it'd just be a smoke effect like when Spy normally disguises. (Edit: Plus, like I suggested in my original comment, there would be an audio cue too, so even if you don't see it you can at least hear when it happens. Another thing is, you'd still be able to hear the revolver shooting noise too).
@@Aaa-vp6ug I guess, another thing I realized is that Enforcer gunspies... lol. So here's a way to prevent overusing it, it only works for 3 shots, and after the 3rd shot it'd act as normal until a cooldown recharges. If that's not good enough, then maybe either less damage while disguised and/or less ammo on pickup. I never really put to much thought into the downsides since I never really put the time to come up with them, as it was just a basic concept. But yeah, it really would just be a direct upgrade without any of those downside I just came up with. Again, it was just a basic concept so it obviously would need some tweaking to be just right and not be op, but I still think it'd be nice to shake up Spy's gameplay than just backstabbing all the time, and instead actually kinda tried to be like the "Meet The Spy" kinds of stealth. (Thank you for questioning about downsides, or else I may not have even thought about fleshing it out more or what would be needed to balance it out).
@@Aaa-vp6ug Another thing, I was wondering if there'd need to give the user marked for death after attacking for a couple/few seconds, but then it'd just be obvious who shot you. But other than the less damage while disguised and less ammo pickup, I'm not sure what other downside would be needed to balance it properly. (Edit: Actually, I just came up with something: About my "after the 3rd shot it acts normally", what if instead it would just undisguise after, and there would be a cooldown needed to redisguise back? I also want it to be after the 3rd because of the "3rd strike you're out" kinda rule). (Edit 2: Also, meleeing would (maybe/probably) just undisguise the like normal, though again I'm not if the Source Engine would be able to do that. I'm probably just being dumb about it though).
i think you missed the detail in meet the scout where scout jumps off a walk to bring the final blow to the heavy. I mean you can kinda get the same effect by just double jumping but I think it'd be cool (but very unbalanced lol) if he could use walls for an extra jump or so
I imagine it like this: if scout jumps to a wall he sticks to it until he makes a jump and only one and he can't stick to wall again until he land on horizontal surface
Maybe also add the consistent pattern like the panic attack, but half of the cluster is really close to the centre in a filled-in circle, and the rest just do regular shotgun pellet thing
Sniper being able to climb inaccessible towers of the map is scary until you remember that Pyro can set the same entire map on fire and knock down the same tower
Actually I have a idea for the sandwich/heavy. Because of the “he punched out my blood” line. What if heavies melee had a chance to cause bleeding depending on health, the higher your health the higher your chance, this would reward players for playing safely and smartly, and encourage teamwork with the medic, engineer, pyro for being able to put out flames, and scout for mad milk
If ragdolls had collision, I could imagine a friendly 2fort server, where people just kill bind to make a giant staircase of ragdolls, so others can get up to the bridge's roof, the lights on the sides of the bases, and other spots
2 fort would be flooded after 2 hours of gameplay in no respawn time servers. Killbinding in to chokepoints to clog up the enemy advance would be interesting and dustbowl ,oh lord dustbowl. Attackers would be unable to attack as all dustbowl spawns have a moat or they are lower level. One can imagine after locked in 5 minutes inside they would be unable to get out of spawn or die because they spawned inside the pile.
This is making my head spin a bit. Basically, just tf2 without game balancing for the most part. Still though, Nearing 20 years and still finding out new things about tf2. Nothing short of amazing.
Something to note.. In the original. ( IE, The old Quake Team Fortress mod ) Pyro COULD set the ground on fire. While Engineer could not make more than one sentry, they could make one connected to a wall or ceiling. ( IE, a sentry that is upside down, or one that is on the side. ) Spy also originally had a grappling hook. A few other things here and there as well.
10:43 I’m personally interested in the formation of the robot demos and soldiers in the sound of medicine video. Having these unique formations would’ve been interesting even if it was for certain map/missions.
I want huge formations of Robot Soldiers who use muskets like it's the revolutionary war. It would take a long time for them to reload, but can put out massive bursts of damage. Only problem I see is how the robots would react to being pushed out of formation via airblast or splash damage. Would they somehow return to formation or would they get some knockback immunity?
Idea: Have the Scout bat grab, the kukri taunt kill, and spy's melee parry be part of an Arkham series-style takedown kill mechanic. It would be basically be like Spy's backstab but if you press the taunt and attack button at the same time when you're behind someone, you do a neat little kill animation! Granted you'd probably be excecuted on the spot once its finished but it would be worth it.
Well, it's based on how long these animations are going to be. If they're going to be too short, then they will become a mess. Just imagine a Heavy with pocket Medic, fully overhealed to 450 health, just running towards and then a Scout or a Sniper going this "taunt kill" and kills one of the duo instantly.
@@_the_spy_8867 even better if a sniper and a scout coordinates and do a double takedown, it would be quite op but all people watching woul collectivly lose their fucking marbles
The takedown should have a health limit. If the enemy's health is above a certain threshold, the taunt kill is void. Imagine how stupid it would be for a fully overhealed heavy to get strangled by a scout for 5 seconds and then die? Unless the animation can be stopped with enough damage and the length of the animation scales as the enemy's health does. This is not viable for casual nor competitive.
If I recall in the Meet the Pyro trailer, the hole in Soldier's chest was produced when shrapnel from one of Engineer's buildings exploded. You can see some sentry gibs in the shot where soldier takes the wound. The sentry's super far away, but the gibs are moving fast. This could entail one of two things: 1. Building blast radius is super far, and buildings do enought damage to at least kill a low health soldier. 2. Building gibs deal damage using physics, the faster they go, the more damage they do to the colliding player. Personally, I'm a fan of option 2.
12:10 Now hear me out, imagine if the Medic have a Medigun that can grant infinite (or really extended) über to a patient with the only downside being that you are still vulnerable, the medigun doesn't recharge (unless you go to spawn) and you need to keep M1 pressed so the über doesn't get interrupted (preventing the Medic give über to more than one patient).
3:10 right after the cut, there are two mercs who were killed by the stock axe and the axtinguisher. Not only does pyro have 2 axes, but they were stuck in the enemies' heads
Fun fact, when I first saw the meet the spy video, I never actually had seen Tf2 gameplay, so the idea of disguising as an enemy made me think that you’re team would see you as an enemy and they could deal damage to you. Kinda glad that wasn’t the case, but kind of an interesting thought.
I found two different changes 1. A miscellaneous change, in meet the medic during the Uber charge scene heavy kills way more than twelve soldiers before any of them could have respawned not to mention that when he’s standing on the pile of corpses he’s still shooting implying there are way more enemies to deal with this could mean that you can fit way more than twelve people on one team 2. A demoman change in meet the sniper when sniper shoots the bottle it breaks in the demoman’s face inflicting bleeding damage so that means if you shoot demoman’s bottle whilst in his hand it breaks in his face similar to the wrap assassin bauble
The soldier was actually a friendly, he walked up to the engineer to probably crouch next to him or something. Only to see the 4 sentries and promptly hit his killbind.
Spy would also be able to touch the enemy intel without breaking disguise too, other than friendly fire. Since the range of level 3 sentries are greatly increased, I think it's also safe to say spy also cannot be targeted by sentries
6:43 don’t forget, this detail bugs the hell out of me. The engineer’s level 3 sentry fires his rockets and causes a scout to lose his arm but the arm to land near the engineer is a snipers
It feels like Medic's uber also charges ridiculously fast in his meet the team video, and seems to last far longer than it should. Additionally, while Heavy himself isn't doing anything out of the ordinary in his video, something that always did stick out to me is that it doesn't really seem like he's getting targeted much, but rather is just mowing down bots/players who are otherwise ignoring him. This could potentially be taken literally to suggest that something is going on to make simply avoiding Heavy the better option unless absolutely necessary. I would say that it could be a massive boost to his health to give him more tanking power, but this is discredited by other videos in which he goes down easily enough so I'd probably lean more towards a buff to his damage. As a final few notes, the Sniper video suggests that round limits don't exist based on how long he's depicted in his sniper tower and Spy's video suggests that the announcer would announce to your team if an enemy spy enters your base.
But in Meet the Spy, he takes ten stabs before dying. So he has a minimum of 360 Health, if the last was a backstab. Or if it was a butterknife, 400. And he stated his weapon does 10,000 rounds per second, ingame, he has a fire rate of about 2284. He basically gets to shred anything in Minigun range
@@Aaa-vp6ug In Meet the Heavy the actual quote is that his minigun fires 10,000 rounds per minute, not second. "She weighs 150 Kilograms and fires $200 custom tool cartridges at 10,000 rounds per minute." Still a lot faster than the in-game rate, but 60 times slower than what you said.

Meet The Sniper also seems to imply that the game has a day-night cycle, as you can see the sun get lower in the sky in the jarate scene
It looks like he was there for hours though, so it probably only affects 2Fort in practice.
Which also implies that in exchange for being able to stock multiple Jarates, Sniper takes *much* longer to recharge them.
That's one of the things that fall under plot rather than gameplay though. I mean the game does sorta have a day night cycle in that night versions of many maps exist, it's just that no match lasts long enough for it to matter.

Just wanted to point out that, spy who was disguised as scout, touches the briefcase without his disguise dropping while picking it up, so spy would ALSO have the ability to not drop disguises when touching the intelligence since the briefcase moves when he does, he would be able to pick it up while disguised.
Pretty minor all things considered. It would be confusing but hey you would have another indicator for spies. If they avoid briefcase they are a spy.
He never properly held the intelligence while still being disguised, he just touched it for a second
The bit in Meet The Sniper where demo falls into the pit and it blows up sounds pretty accurate. Do you remember how many times Valve had to patch out a payload finale getting set off by exploits that dropped some random entity into the hole? Because it was a lot. At least two or three times, minimum.
Why didn’t they start with something like ‘if Payload in trigger --> go boom’

Two notes:
1. Demoman used to be able to detonate stickies while taunting. This was removed.
2. Just because Sniper can _produce_ multiple Jarate does not mean that he can _carry_ multiple Jarate.
One last thing apparently touching the intelligence doesn't automatically undisguise spies. When the Blu Scout (Red Spy) touches the briefcase he doesn't instantly drop his Scout disguise.
It's because you carry the intel that you drop the disguse, not because you touch it
@@TheZombiewill true, but thats from a lore perspective. this video is from a game perspective
He also doesn't pick it up, so instead the change is probably that disguised spies can't pick up intelligence at all (rather than dropping their disguise immediately).

He specifically said that he wasn't going over things that were plot related and this is definitely one of those.

Could lead to a funny unintentional nerf to the Wrangler of you’re spreading your sentries out, though. All or nothing on the Wrangler, so using it with one sentry still disabled the rest and lets the enemy punch some holes wherever you aren’t.
Maybe the shield wouldn’t be as broken in that case. Though if a player grouped their four sentries together, it’d go back to being busted.

I just realized for the Soldier avoiding sentries thing: What if it's partially based on facial recognition? If they had programmed the sentries to just shoot at blue targets that were moving then it'd end up targeting things like water, moving props, or the bomb cart, so they'd also have to add a second layer, which would be facial recognition. Since Soldier covers half his face all the time, and the sentries would be based on his un-helmeted appearance, then the sentries wouldn't be able to tell it was him. Facial recognition on its own wouldn't work, since the Red and Blu variants of both teams look exactly the same (minus colors obviously). And no, the sentry didn't kill him in Meet the Engineer, unless they were trying to shoot past him and he got caught in the crossfire (which granted doesn't make the most sense given the angles it was shooting at but whatever, good enough).
wouldnt they also have to make pyro be ignored since their mask obstructs their face and isnt team colored?
or maybe its because soldier was too crazy to get a good picture of his face
@l.m.l8598 how about spy?
@l.m.l8598 AND ENGIE TOO!
this explanation doesn’t work because the sentry targets a disembodied hand, and that wouldn’t work for facial recognition
We also have to consider that sentries target demo gernades
In meet the scout heavy uses shotgun and the sandwich at the same time, so heavy gets a buff of getting 2 different slots - one for lunchbox and other for shotguns

@@CityState_of_Valletta 1) primary slot
2) lunchbox slot
3) shotgun slot

@@TF-Boom So basically the TF2 heavy briefly got replaced with a Planetside 2 heavy, since it is possible for a Planetside 2 heavy to carry 2 primaries, which can mean the TR chaingun+a pump action shotgun, a stimpack (obligatory for Planetside 2 heavies, they're all addicted), and a knife. TR also has a black and red color scheme so obviously this makes perfect sense.
if the heavy update ever happens this should happen.
In Meet the Spy, when he disguises as the medic, he doesn't get the glasses. I always thought it could be added to the game that he cannot replicate the glasses. Can make for a funny interaction when trying to tell apart a spy that is disguised as a medic.
He already does that just more obvious. I don't know if it would solve the disquse kit tho. Remove all weapon cosmetics, small acsesorries such as glasses, scars and what not.
It would probably result in better spy gameplay as a whole.
Slightly imperfect disguises sound interesting. Especially when randomly spychecking wouldn't be possible, like with friendly fire.
I actually think Demo was supposed to have a constant trail of explosions behind him as they’re also present in the scene right after the first interview segment. I could only imagine they were removed for the obvious reason of hard countering spy or some other balance reasons

-Pyroland makes the entire map nearly invisible
-Pyro can block doors with their axe
-Breaking Demo's bottle during a taunt blinds him
-Heavy's new emblem could just be a cosmetic
-Engi can place more than 2 teleporters (Demo goes through one in Expiration Date, and comes out the other with beer sometime later, meaning the first tele's exit must have taken him where the beer is and he used a separate one to get home)
-Sentries shoot enemy gibs (if they're moving)
-Players get bandages added to their char model at low health
-Damage causes negative status effects as it accumulates (Scout is forced to crawl, Demo is forced into a wheelchair)
-Either all of the Soldiers in MtM were at low health, the Quick-Fix gives a damage boost as well (perhaps its Über now also gives Kritz), the low-damage Homing Rocket also increases damage taken/reduces HP on the wearer, or Heavy's damage is increased
-Spy's knife remains inside ragdolls after a backstab and must be retrieved or replaced
-Spy is not targeted by sentries, even when not disguised
-Spy (or all players) can choose not to take the enemy intelligence when touching it
-Swearing in-game is bleeped (perhaps by voice detection AI)
-Players are 50/50 RED team and BLU team in MVM
-Game is more gory altogether
-Melee attacks might deal headshot damage (Soldier in MtSo, Pyro in MtP, Scout in MtM, and Spy in MtSp [but not with the knife] all killed someone in one hit by melee attacking their head)
Heavy has 400 health, he gets stabbed 10 times during Meet the Spy’s outro before dying
And heavy states his gun does 10000 rounds/minute.
And currently, it only shoots 4 rounds every .105 seconds, or 2284 rounds per second.

The bandages mechanic could be pretty cool actually
Imagine you get damaged, and when you heal up by medkits instead of Medic's medigun, you would get bandages on your player model, until you're healed by medic or die and respawn

spy throwing his sapper should be like heavy throwing his sandvich but with more momentum the longer you hold it down, like demoman's stickys
My theory is that we see sentries in expiration date, and engie needs those to stay up to protect red, so he only has one spare for combat
I think the "homing rockets" are more of an arcing situation, the ones in Meet the Medic having been fired to arc toward Scout.
Even then, rockets in-game don't even arc
scrapped version of Rocket Launcher do shoot arcing projectiles. You can still see it in TF2C
The ones that came in from the sides hit the scout at weird angles if they really didn't home in.
He also shot three rockets at once somehow.
@@mrmasterball217 nah three individual soldiers shot at once.
I remember when I first saw "Meet the Medic". Back then I had no proper knowledge of Valve or the game, ao I assumed that it had a mechanic in which, as you took damage, your character would summon medical equipment to hold themselves together.
technically a genius, hypothetical gimmick but that would mean the enemies can now tell how many hp they have, lol
The Scout's bat strangle attack sounds like it would work like L4D2's Jockey's ability, making him able to yank his victim around (and in the line of fire of allied sentries/players or into environmental hazards).
The ubercharge duration in Meet The Medic is also MUCH longer than the one in-game.
I'm also curious just how much faster Heavies minigun would fire if the actual RPM was accounted for.
I remember Uncle Dane complaining about Meet the Engineer only having sentries
Collectively, it seems, we all forgot Scout wall-jumping before the final hit on the Heavy.
While this can be chalked up to him simply double-jumping, he visibly grabs onto the crate before jumping off, meaning there are at least minimal parkour elements to Scout now.
Honestly, I would love a Parkour-Focused Scout. Probably not in TF2 itself, but in a different TF2 inspired shooter game.
and wall jumping isn't impossible in source.
One thing for meet the demo tho: you used to be able to taunt while exploding your stickies, it was changed after an update to fix issues with looping taunts that change when you press your mouse buttons.
I thought it was just high-five trolling or because they would use it to look around corners.
3000 hours in the game but I was today years old when I learned that there are taunts that use mouse inputs.
@@CityState_of_Valletta looking back into it, it might be possible for that to be the cause or a rare case of valve fixing an issue before it became a problem, unless there was a mouse key taunt before Mannrobics. As a note, clicking the right or left mouse buttons while using mannrobics will play different animations, assuming you're currently in the one where the arms are clapping. There are some more taunts since that use mouse keys but I can't remember the names of them
Also, Meet the Demoman came out to coincide with the game's release in 2007, so it's likely that they were indeed playing the beta. The endcard of the video even jokes on it.
And I still hate that change. You can't explode stickies with the primary taunt anymore! >:C
1:24 fun fact, the sandvich's mechanics do reference this (as far as tf2 wiki is concerned) as when a sandvich is specifically dropped due to its user dying it I think heals scout specifically 75 health while only 50 to other classes.
I never knew the sandvich dropped on death
@@AnarqismThey don't hold it dying as fas as i know.
Perhaps the Kukri taunt would be a taunt kill when you do it standing behind someone.
Also, as seen at 0:04, the Heavy can apparenttly equip both a Shotgun and a Sandvich at the same time
I’m so torn because the videos as they are are all so entertaining, iconic and i wouldn’t have them being any other way but man it would’ve been nice to see a more in-depth and accurate display of Engineers’s capabilities.
Like what if his arm got nicked by a bullet but it showed a nearby dispenser healing him?
Maybe having his regular meet the team video intercut with shots of him in the middle of combat, building dispensers and teleporters?
A gameplay accurate Meet the Engineer would have him rush everywhere in a near constant state of panic while desperately trying to maintain and rebuild his buildings.

@@TheRealLittleBIGhead Pretty much.
Surprised you didn't mention how the Heavy in Meet the Scout his holding both the Sandvich and the Shotgun at the same time
One thing blue either missed or straight up ignored is that in the meet the spy video, heavy is clearly running in his normal speed while having his gun revved up.
We wouldn't be able to play the game if it happend. Also heavies fire rate was decreased in game. If what he says is true heavy would melt his foe within miliseconds.
@@temkin9298 That would be a very good character concept honestly
Demo actually used to be able to det his stickies while taunting, but they removed that sometime around the rock-paper-scissors era
9:39 One thing I would like to point out is that like with Soldier the sentry doesn’t detect an uncloaked spy from behind. In the normal game when you walk up behind a sentry undisguised no matter what position you are in it will always detect and fire on you. Another thing of note is that the sapper disables the sentry without it actually touching the sentry first
It also directly contradicts the Meet the Engineer video where a sentry is infact able to detect someone sneaking up behind.
@@hedgehog3180 They probably weren't a Spy. Or Soldier.

Meet the Sandvich does have one thing that doesn't exist ingame and is also mentioned in Poker Night at the Inventory: the Sandvich makes Heavy go into an uncontrollable murderous rage, including against what seems like friendlies.
Additionally, Scout wields the Pain Train in Expiration Date, and Demo gets a shotgun in Mann Vs. Machine, but that's probably nitpicking at that point.
Scout with the Pain Train just feels like overkill
Wait, scout get the pain train in expiration date?
@@discozdisco3566Yes, at the beginning of the bread monster fight
Heavy punches out all of Scout’s blood so I’m going to make him trigger multiple stacks of Bleed on crit, and Scout automatically becomes immune to bleed if he’s below a certain health threshold, until death.
Soldier's dialogue taunted Heavy when he's attempting to break his spine, calling him RED team ladies.
In other words, Soldier and Scout were from BLU.
I like how every single realistically fatal blow to an enemy is explained as a "random crit", because of how we got used to these weird game mechanics lol
Edit: Ok that might be cheating, but heavy in meet the scout is CLEARLY eating a sandwich while holding a shotgun at the same time, which should grant heavy a second secondary slot (yeah I know.) reserved for lunchbox items and/or other consumables, while the other one is only for the shotguns

Or in soldier's words: "IF GOD HAS WANTED ME TO LIVE, HE WOULDN'T HAVE CREATED A HEART ATTACK!"
Seeing the Spy stats gave me an idea for a new disguise kit: Attacking while disguised doesn't remove it, instead makes it flicker in and out slightly between the Spy and the disguised class for 2-3 seconds for enemy to just barely be able to see it, it also has a tiny sound que for audibility too. (Only takes effect when not swapping class disguises, so you'll have to be undisguised first for it to work(?)).
What’s the downside?
@@Aaa-vp6ug You have a chance of being seen if you attack, that's what the flickering between the disguise and yourself is. But I understand your concern that it'd be op if done poorly or too subtle. It would (hopefully) take/need a trained eye to spot it out. But if the flicker wouldn't work because of Source engine limitations, then maybe it'd just be a smoke effect like when Spy normally disguises.
(Edit: Plus, like I suggested in my original comment, there would be an audio cue too, so even if you don't see it you can at least hear when it happens. Another thing is, you'd still be able to hear the revolver shooting noise too).
@@Antroz0n yeah, that’s still a buff over undisguising, unless it’s a rework, it’s literally stock but better and needs a downside
@@Aaa-vp6ug I guess, another thing I realized is that Enforcer gunspies... lol. So here's a way to prevent overusing it, it only works for 3 shots, and after the 3rd shot it'd act as normal until a cooldown recharges. If that's not good enough, then maybe either less damage while disguised and/or less ammo on pickup. I never really put to much thought into the downsides since I never really put the time to come up with them, as it was just a basic concept. But yeah, it really would just be a direct upgrade without any of those downside I just came up with. Again, it was just a basic concept so it obviously would need some tweaking to be just right and not be op, but I still think it'd be nice to shake up Spy's gameplay than just backstabbing all the time, and instead actually kinda tried to be like the "Meet The Spy" kinds of stealth. (Thank you for questioning about downsides, or else I may not have even thought about fleshing it out more or what would be needed to balance it out).
@@Aaa-vp6ug Another thing, I was wondering if there'd need to give the user marked for death after attacking for a couple/few seconds, but then it'd just be obvious who shot you. But other than the less damage while disguised and less ammo pickup, I'm not sure what other downside would be needed to balance it properly.
(Edit: Actually, I just came up with something: About my "after the 3rd shot it acts normally", what if instead it would just undisguise after, and there would be a cooldown needed to redisguise back? I also want it to be after the 3rd because of the "3rd strike you're out" kinda rule).
(Edit 2: Also, meleeing would (maybe/probably) just undisguise the like normal, though again I'm not if the Source Engine would be able to do that. I'm probably just being dumb about it though).
10:36 Heavies will now punch out all your blood on a melee crit.
Red paint everywhere and also he baned the soldier. Soldier also should be able to do that.
I guess you could balance engineer by saying that he just had a building limit of 4, so you could have 4 sentries or 4 dispensers for example
4 teleporter entrances
One teleporter entrance, three teleporter exits. Players who go through it must now control three characters at once.
@@ChristmasPterodactylNow you’re thinking with portals!
Don't worry, the Blu soldier just has a kill bind that he likes to use a lot through out the trailers
honestly i wouldn't put it past him lol
The Pyro would also have the ability to use his melee to lock doors to leave players inside a room, with no way out.
Another thing in Meet the engineer none of the classes can lose pieces from there selves without being dead
i think you missed the detail in meet the scout where scout jumps off a walk to bring the final blow to the heavy. I mean you can kinda get the same effect by just double jumping but I think it'd be cool (but very unbalanced lol) if he could use walls for an extra jump or so
I imagine it like this: if scout jumps to a wall he sticks to it until he makes a jump and only one and he can't stick to wall again until he land on horizontal surface
Or maybe a melee unlock like the atomizer but instead of a triple jump it allows you to jump off of walls.
Sadly we had to wait until Titanfall before someone had the brilliant idea of combining an FPS with parkour.
The ending of Meet The Spy insinuates that friendly fire is turned on.
You have no idea how much I want a headshot-focused shotgun for TF2.
when i first saw the 'reserve shooter' i assumed that would be it function
Same. It'd be like Pizza Time.
and it has the hitman's heatmaker effect of making people's heads explode on a headshot
Maybe also add the consistent pattern like the panic attack, but half of the cluster is really close to the centre in a filled-in circle, and the rest just do regular shotgun pellet thing
You also missed the part where pyro locked the medic in the barn, meaning he could effectively lock some doors, or just custom map shenanigans

until you remember that Pyro can set the same entire map on fire and knock down the same tower
Actually I have a idea for the sandwich/heavy. Because of the “he punched out my blood” line. What if heavies melee had a chance to cause bleeding depending on health, the higher your health the higher your chance, this would reward players for playing safely and smartly, and encourage teamwork with the medic, engineer, pyro for being able to put out flames, and scout for mad milk
Yes
this speaks out like what grouch would say
10:20 this should be a taunt kill as well but when not used on medic spy should steal their hats instead (the stock hats)
If ragdolls had collision, I could imagine a friendly 2fort server, where people just kill bind to make a giant staircase of ragdolls, so others can get up to the bridge's roof, the lights on the sides of the bases, and other spots
2 fort would be flooded after 2 hours of gameplay in no respawn time servers. Killbinding in to chokepoints to clog up the enemy advance would be interesting and dustbowl ,oh lord dustbowl. Attackers would be unable to attack as all dustbowl spawns have a moat or they are lower level. One can imagine after locked in 5 minutes inside they would be unable to get out of spawn or die because they spawned inside the pile.
This is making my head spin a bit. Basically, just tf2 without game balancing for the most part.
Still though, Nearing 20 years and still finding out new things about tf2. Nothing short of amazing.
Something to note.. In the original. ( IE, The old Quake Team Fortress mod ) Pyro COULD set the ground on fire. While Engineer could not make more than one sentry, they could make one connected to a wall or ceiling. ( IE, a sentry that is upside down, or one that is on the side. )
Spy also originally had a grappling hook.
A few other things here and there as well.

In meet the scout, the heavy actually had both a sandvich and shotgun
The sapper buff seems pretty balanced considering Engie has like 4 sentries now.
plus the slide might be hard to aim so getting it exactly on the sentry would logically merit extra damage akin to the headshot change.
someone should make a community server with all of these changes
For the heavy, you could make sasha actually shoot as fast as he says it does.
10:43 I’m personally interested in the formation of the robot demos and soldiers in the sound of medicine video. Having these unique formations would’ve been interesting even if it was for certain map/missions.
I want huge formations of Robot Soldiers who use muskets like it's the revolutionary war. It would take a long time for them to reload, but can put out massive bursts of damage.
Only problem I see is how the robots would react to being pushed out of formation via airblast or splash damage. Would they somehow return to formation or would they get some knockback immunity?
@@crockstonytprobably regroup
Idea: Have the Scout bat grab, the kukri taunt kill, and spy's melee parry be part of an Arkham series-style takedown kill mechanic. It would be basically be like Spy's backstab but if you press the taunt and attack button at the same time when you're behind someone, you do a neat little kill animation! Granted you'd probably be excecuted on the spot once its finished but it would be worth it.
Well, it's based on how long these animations are going to be. If they're going to be too short, then they will become a mess.
Just imagine a Heavy with pocket Medic, fully overhealed to 450 health, just running towards and then a Scout or a Sniper going this "taunt kill" and kills one of the duo instantly.
@@_the_spy_8867 even better if a sniper and a scout coordinates and do a double takedown, it would be quite op but all people watching woul collectivly lose their fucking marbles
The takedown should have a health limit. If the enemy's health is above a certain threshold, the taunt kill is void. Imagine how stupid it would be for a fully overhealed heavy to get strangled by a scout for 5 seconds and then die? Unless the animation can be stopped with enough damage and the length of the animation scales as the enemy's health does. This is not viable for casual nor competitive.
Tho spy being able to parry melee attacks into an instant kill would make him nore dangerous to run at than he already is

I mean, at least you know the lore to the Quick-Fix, most people don't.
If I recall in the Meet the Pyro trailer, the hole in Soldier's chest was produced when shrapnel from one of Engineer's buildings exploded. You can see some sentry gibs in the shot where soldier takes the wound. The sentry's super far away, but the gibs are moving fast. This could entail one of two things:
1. Building blast radius is super far, and buildings do enought damage to at least kill a low health soldier.
2. Building gibs deal damage using physics, the faster they go, the more damage they do to the colliding player.
Personally, I'm a fan of option 2.
Ah, when I was watching this video I figured it was pyro's shotgun.
Would bê so funny If the Team was camping a tele and the engi Just destryoys de tele
11:26. Bruh, end of the line was not only officially endorsed by Valve as canon, but they made an entire update around it.
12:10
Now hear me out, imagine if the Medic have a Medigun that can grant infinite (or really extended) über to a patient with the only downside being that you are still vulnerable, the medigun doesn't recharge (unless you go to spawn) and you need to keep M1 pressed so the über doesn't get interrupted (preventing the Medic give über to more than one patient).
3:10 right after the cut, there are two mercs who were killed by the stock axe and the axtinguisher. Not only does pyro have 2 axes, but they were stuck in the enemies' heads
stock axe taunt kill
Fun fact, when I first saw the meet the spy video, I never actually had seen Tf2 gameplay, so the idea of disguising as an enemy made me think that you’re team would see you as an enemy and they could deal damage to you. Kinda glad that wasn’t the case, but kind of an interesting thought.
I found two different changes 1. A miscellaneous change, in meet the medic during the Uber charge scene heavy kills way more than twelve soldiers before any of them could have respawned not to mention that when he’s standing on the pile of corpses he’s still shooting implying there are way more enemies to deal with this could mean that you can fit way more than twelve people on one team
2. A demoman change in meet the sniper when sniper shoots the bottle it breaks in the demoman’s face inflicting bleeding damage so that means if you shoot demoman’s bottle whilst in his hand it breaks in his face similar to the wrap assassin bauble
Still wish Spy could parry and OHKO in disguise like that, any kind of fisticuffs spy would be dope as hell
The soldier was actually a friendly, he walked up to the engineer to probably crouch next to him or something. Only to see the 4 sentries and promptly hit his killbind.
Yes
Spy would also be able to touch the enemy intel without breaking disguise too, other than friendly fire. Since the range of level 3 sentries are greatly increased, I think it's also safe to say spy also cannot be targeted by sentries
6:43 don’t forget, this detail bugs the hell out of me.
The engineer’s level 3 sentry fires his rockets and causes a scout to lose his arm but the arm to land near the engineer is a snipers
That's not an arm. That's a hand and a wrist.
@@autumnusprime88 Forearm
@@autumnusprime88 then why did the scout scream “MY ARM”
@@jackmack4181 Well, were multiple rockets. Could have hit not just Scout out there.
Or it was just an error on Valves part.
@@autumnusprime88 good counter point
It feels like Medic's uber also charges ridiculously fast in his meet the team video, and seems to last far longer than it should.
Additionally, while Heavy himself isn't doing anything out of the ordinary in his video, something that always did stick out to me is that it doesn't really seem like he's getting targeted much, but rather is just mowing down bots/players who are otherwise ignoring him. This could potentially be taken literally to suggest that something is going on to make simply avoiding Heavy the better option unless absolutely necessary. I would say that it could be a massive boost to his health to give him more tanking power, but this is discredited by other videos in which he goes down easily enough so I'd probably lean more towards a buff to his damage.
As a final few notes, the Sniper video suggests that round limits don't exist based on how long he's depicted in his sniper tower and Spy's video suggests that the announcer would announce to your team if an enemy spy enters your base.
But in Meet the Spy, he takes ten stabs before dying. So he has a minimum of 360 Health, if the last was a backstab. Or if it was a butterknife, 400.
And he stated his weapon does 10,000 rounds per second, ingame, he has a fire rate of about 2284.
He basically gets to shred anything in Minigun range
@@Aaa-vp6ug In Meet the Heavy the actual quote is that his minigun fires 10,000 rounds per minute, not second.
"She weighs 150 Kilograms and fires $200 custom tool cartridges at 10,000 rounds per minute."
Still a lot faster than the in-game rate, but 60 times slower than what you said.
@@Crow_Rising oh
@@Crow_Rising thanks
Meet the heavy actually does make 1 large change, every time you fire your minigun for a full second, it drains your bank account for 33,333$
