The story of Armchair Warrior, someone who decides he must get in shape after a rough experience on a Team Fortress 2 server and later returns to see if his training has paid off.
After the Get Behind Me Doctor scandal from the other day, the Heavy is showing himself to be quite the perverted bad boy of Team Fortress 2. This video by newyorker52 doesn’t do anything to help his reputation. The filth from the original meet the team video has been bleeped out, and is now safe for at work and family consumption.
It costs $400,000 to f*** this weapon for 12 seconds
With the most romantic pagan festival/rebranded Christian event of the calendar year just around the corner, we thought we’d throw up some Team Fortress 2 valentines that have been floating around the intertube.
Alexandria Neonakis over at Nuts and Beavers (oh god, google is gonna have a field day with search results when it indexes that URL…), has put up a bunch of kick ass TF2 valentines images.
As a gesture of love, I decided not to send one of these to my wife…
Elvis! recommended another great tutorial video. It’s produced by RandomEngy, and is in a similar style to the great How To Play Spy and How To Play Pyro videos made by Daedalus.
A lot of people think the heavy weapons guy is a basic class with no tricks to know. While he is often simpler to play than other classes, there is more to the heavy than just dumb charging while firing your big gun. There are still a lot of tactics that people on public servers miss which this tutorial goes over.
Yes, there is more to it than charge + fire your big gun + pray for an ubercharge.
Theres also some nice footage of a heavy owning an entire enemy team while maniacally laughing and yelling at them. Seriously, the heavy has the funniest lines Team Fortress 2.
Its Monday, and that means it time to watch some people getting messed up. Why? Because Monday is the hardest day of the week, and we switched to daylight savings time here in Australia over the weekend, and it fuzzes with my body clock and makes me cranky, and I feel like indulging in some mayhem.
So here’s a round up of a few Team Fortress 2 videos of various displays of ownage.
Spy Ownage
There’s a couple of good killing sprees in this one. Its a little older, from the beta. Most people are wised up enough to spies that you can’t get away with this stuff these days. Still cool.
Pyro Ownage
I love Pyro, I mean seriously. When you watch the kind of mayhem a single ubered pyro can inflict, it brings a smile to my face.
Heavy Ownage
The classic steamroller maneuver. A fat man charging toward you with a gun is a persuasive argument. The skinny nerdy guy behind him kinda helps as well.
Sniper Ownage
Usually I’m not a fan of sniper wankery. They tend to sit up on the barricades on 2 fort not doing much except killing each other and not really helping the game along (I’ll make an exception for ShanDogs, cause he’s actually not bad at it).
This guy has a some of that, but he gets out and stretches his legs a bit as well. The last shot is the coolest - hes a blue sniper who has the balls to snipe red engineers inside the stairs at the red base.
Random Messy Ownage
This last one is a bit silly. Its some duel map that is too small, and has too many people in it. Spawn camping taken to the extremes, and then some.
One of the things I love in Team Fortress 2 is the humour. The “Meet The…” series of trailer videos introducing the different classes shows this off nicely.
