Thanks to Bazinga for sending this in. YouTube user thejazzman9475 has been hard at work creating some of the best TF2 videos ever made. Ever. So far, they’re unfinished, but they’re already dripping with freshly painted win.
There are a couple other ones in the works too, featuring the Pyro, the Sniper, and the Engineer. There’s also one with a surprisingly risqué Heavy/Medic pairs dance sequence. I, for one, can’t wait for these to be finished.
It has been a good two years since I put out the call on the internet for a piece of machinima to be made. I had thought of the idea a while ago back in 2008 and was going to try to make it for the Ubercharged community when I found out that making it myself would require something weird called “actual work and talent”, since I don’t have that I decided to post an article and see if anyone on the Ubercharged community could help get that machinima onto the intertubes. Alas, the machinima had the epicness of late 2009 and we were in 2008 at the time, so the machinima never saw the light of day…until now!
That’s right! Someone else must have seen the gleaming shard of epicness wedged in the depths of fraps and gmod. Someone who had actual time and talent! So without further adieu I present to you…
Every once and a while, a video shows up that’s so good that we’re willing to risk the reader’s ire by putting up another video post. This is definitely one of those videos.
Quick update: The creator has uploaded a comparison reel, for those who didn’t see the original trailer or who just wanted to be even more blown away by the shot-for-shot accuracy.
Okay, ignore all this stuff I’ve told you about beingagoodpyro. Using your airblast, other tools, avoiding W+M1…it’s wrong. Just follow Hamps’s guide to skillfull pyroing.
1) Remove all the keys on your keyboard.
2) Re-add W.
3) Pull out the right mouse button of your mouse.
4) Play Pyro.
Heavy metal that is! As one of the laziest contributors on the site, it is my honour to pass along a shout-out to my friend Andy Hauck, or as he is known in the TF2 world, -=I Drink Your Milkshake=-. So what does he have to do with Team Fortress 2 aside from being a regular player? I think I’ll let this video do the talking, lord knows we’ve done it enough around here already. Crank your speakers up to eleven for maximum awesome, it’s “so metal you could upgrade your sentry with it!”
And here’s an awesome picture as a filler an added bonus!
Rock on!
Edit: No kiddos, this isn’t the IDYM of CP fame. I was unaware of said person as I don’t follow CP. However, I do have a spiffy new download link compliments of the artist for you to enjoy.
There are lots of parody videos, comics, and the like of Team Fortress 2. For whatever reason, it inspires fans to creative works, most likely due to the vibrancy of the characters. And no character is more interesting than that of the mysterious Spy- and now, he even comes with his own built-in “Your mother” joke! This video is especially notable not just for the amusing video, but also the impressive impression by the person voicing the Spy. It sounds just like the newer voice clips.
Warning: Despite the title, reading this to your children is not advised.
We all know that TF2 got bugs, and most of them can be exploited in one way or other. However, I believe this one takes the prize as the coolest exploit of them all, and made me realize that the Dead Ringer is actually still a powerful weapon, and that I might go and try that out on the Ubercharged server. People. I present to you… Spy taunt kill complilation. Spy smirked, and millions of raging souls whined and screamed (I think)
Plain awesome, in a box, dipped with chocolate cream, beautifully decorated, and with strawberry on top. That’s a bunch of epic kills that makes me “OMGAWESOMELOL” The next time I am on Ubercharged, I am going to OMGWTFINVISISTAB people, just to see their reactions.
…and I wonder how many of you know that I was in a rush to make this, being a video article with just some lines. Speaking of lack of lines, this is beginning to look alot like one of these articles with just a video and some lines! Videooooooo~ takes up too much! But all is begiven because it’s epic kills, but some shall complain about the lack of lines~
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. And Pyros. The way the Spy can be played is about to be changed with the impending update. Before we see how TF2 will further evolve, let’s take a moment to cherish how it is now (*cough facestabs cough)
Chances are, you’ve probably heard of OMFGNinja and Jening, some of the more well-known Spies in TF2. Perchance you know about Lt. Cindi Lauper, known as SubtleArt on Youtube (and for some reason, missing), and maybe even a guy called Prototype. All fine Spies in their own respect, and probably some of the better ones to bother to make themselves known.
Here today, I bring you an under-appreciated gem of the Team Fortress Spy (under)world; a guy I know called PippiN. Recently finished a frag set of four videos; TF2 Spy, Phases 1, 2, 3 part I, and 3 part II, and may possibly continue the series. I particularly enjoyed part 2 and 3, and you can start with them; no need for formalities. Anyway, I’d like to share them with a few more viewers. Who knows, you may even learn a thing or two. Do shut off HD if you must, but you will be missing out a little.
Without further ado, PippiN, ladies and gentlemen.
His Youtube channel is here, where you can find a couple more videos. Enjoy, take notes, and have a smoke. I can’t wait to see what new tricks crop up with this update.
As you all probably already know, the Spy sapped the update. I TOTALLY WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG. Thanks for the cookies Zorgulon! OM NOM NOM NOM. This will be TF2’s first double update ever, and it’s going to be so great! Biggest update ever, indeed.
So, why did I quickly write this? Well, someone made a video tribute to that. This guy had ALOT of time on his hands, but that’s nothing compared to the awesomeness! BEHOLD!
I wonder how much 1725 sniper bullets costs… ah well, doesn’t really matter. For those who don’t know, the release of the update is pushed to thursday.
Valve made me realize that we can still have nice things in the world, because if we had sniper rushes, we wouldn’t have nice things in the world. Now, Spy AND Sniper rushes? Now that’s okay! I predict that the next class to get a update is Soldier. I don’t really see any problem with the Engineer (I am a Engie player, so I should know something like that) and I don’t think Demoman is in a serious need of a update right now. The Soldier update would be a good update, because a team of Soldiers is, in my opinion, the best one-class team, with Heavy coming in closely (Disclaimer: I didn’t say rush, so don’t go saying “LOL NO IT’S SCOOOOT” Scout teams doesn’t really work well against a team with prepared and well-placed sentries. Heck, a single well-placed level three sentry could still destroy a Scout rush, though it mostly depends on how good the Scouts are) And I honestly believe that Engineer and Demoman should share a update, because we don’t want a team of only Engineers.
If Valve wants to make more unlocks (I wouldn’t mind it too much to be honest, as long as they make a option for server owners to disable unlockables, aka Vanilla mode. No matter what, Pyro MUST get a guitar-shaped hellstone axe that’s on fire. It also need to be called “Hell Star” just for sheer awesome) I would prefer them doing something bigger like… triple updates. Three classes gets their weapons in the same update, so we will avoid some problems that had been surrounding the updates.
I wonder what kind of unlockable that Soldier would get. Personally, I’d love for a Jetpack (How it would work out, I dunno, but I am sure Valve could think of something) but that’s just wishful thoughts.
I think I like the Dead Ringer watch. I can see some fun potential in it, and I can see it cause mass paranoia, even if the spies don’t have it. Too bad it will also increase spychecking tenfold.
If you need me, I will be off, preparing for the impending Sniper and Spy rush by training my Pyro skills. Flare Gun or Shotgun, Flare Gun or Shotgun…
