This, unironically, is my first exposure to TF2. Little me was so entertained I pursued more animations of the characters, eventually running into the meet the team videos. I feel like this channel was a part of so many people’s childhoods.
If this (along with the other Vicious Cycle TF2 videos) was the Trailer for TF2 itself, people would just think TF2 would be some kind of Itchy & Scratchy, Superjail! or Happy Tree Friends like Video Game (classic cartoon physics and violence with actual blood) rather than a multiplayer First-Person combat based objective Video Game
No other replication of this video (besides dasboshitt's) can match the raw chaotic energy of this one. every bit is on beat, it never stays on one shot for more than a second
It's the fact that the movements are so spastic and jerky that makes them look that much more frenetic and chaotic. SFM gives users much more control over character's movement which makes everything smoother and more professional, but it's because GMod is such a mess that makes everything so hyperbolic, like every movement is a slingshot of madness. It's similar to how a show like Ren & Stimpy could have never worked with 3D computer models, or cheap Flash-esque puppets and rigs; the only way you could get characters to look that crazy is with a free-form medium like hand-drawn, 2D illustration.
Tell me... who else was listening to Raving Rabbids OST, saw this in the list of thumbnails, immediately thought "this is the funniest/messed up TV show ever!", later found out it was a game, Discovered steam , and began playing it day and night every day since then. I did back in 2011 and now as a result, I've given GabeN roughly $1500. (money well spent)
Perdikkas Hmmm. not big surprise. I've seen weirder coincidences. But if you don't mind me poking at this idea further, tell me, what other things would you imagine we may have in common? Mine for example would be a dream of one day owning a golden pan that I'd buy with my own money, A love of minecraft/Don't Starve, A hatred for all things school related, Legit conspiracy theroies, and an unhealthy obsession with Gmod/SFM that make absolutely zero sense whatsoever. Any of that in the ballpark?
Soldier gets headshot by Sniper, Sniper is backstabbed by Spy, Spy is blown up with Engineer, Pyro gets taunt killed by Heavy, Heavy is Force-a-Natured and blows up with Medic by Scout, Scout gets beaten by Demoman until Soldier respawns.
Anyone else love how you can tell Scout's entire thought process while Demo's threatening him just by the changes in his expression? Like, he doesn't say a word in that shot, and yet you can see pretty much exactly what he's thinking simply by observing his face. I don't know why it took me until just now to realize it, but that is genuinely some masterful visual storytelling on Raikujo's part. (And yes, I know this is by no means exclusive to this video, but frankly, you don't always see it, and it's not always done well. Plus, with how short and fast-paced the video is, nailing it without ruining the pacing can be tough to pull off.)
Some official servers have them. The respawns work in waves. I've had a 30 sec respawn on 2Fort on an official server because I was unfortunate enough to die right at the wave counter's reset.

Behold, a vintage Yahia comment in the wild

As the years go by, this is still basically how gameplay goes.
True, usually once a spy shows up, there winds up being something like 5 pyros on the opposing teams.

Pyros might be a pain for newbs, but Demo is still the most overpowered class
That is so true.
The only differences are the hats.
They added the thermal thruster for pyro, which is basically 0:25
Still played like this...

About the same. Even years after i stopped playing i come back to these old gems from a different time
first TF2 video i watched was this video of some spy making a kid rage, i’ll try to find the video if i can
found it ruclips.net/video/dRdCJA4_3WE/видео.html
i only started playing in early 2021, though i watched a ton of TF2 videos before that
I wasn't a child then I already had graduated highschool, but i was still pretty immature so lmao

This video used to loop?

It sure did, and that's when it was just great. Still, nice video, but unfortunate.

You can now loop videos without any page, you just need to right click, then loop
Butter of Sorrow I remember that. It used to automatically loop, at least it used to.

Is the video actually accurate?
Well yes and no. Obviously the characters don't act like that in game but it does depict the out come of an average game of 2fort very nicely :D

There's just something special about classic Gmod that SFM can't replace.
This is a prime example of this.
It's the fact that the movements are so spastic and jerky that makes them look that much more frenetic and chaotic. SFM gives users much more control over character's movement which makes everything smoother and more professional, but it's because GMod is such a mess that makes everything so hyperbolic, like every movement is a slingshot of madness.

So true
Watch at 2x speed on a loop, and it feels vicious. It's too fast to comprehend with normal eyes.
I really don't see what you mean
Kinda like normal 2fort.
Holy crap
I read youtube live stream live chat so it's normal for me

Same
It's sad that the vicious cycle of FNAF has more views.
Next thing you know the fanbase says that this video copied the FNAF one.
A thing that gets an FNAF version will get more recognition than the original. Because the video attracts the autistic fanbase. This is the sad truth.
This video is a ripoff of the vicious cycle of five nights at freddys lelelelelelelelelelel
@@Skullguy92 At least this one is even funnier and better than the FNAF one XD
