It could also pair with an Axtinguisher Pyro because ironically Scout's molotov is better at lighting lots of people on fire all at once than the Gas Passer. Scouts throws the molotov and then both him and a friendly Pyro go clean up with melees if that's a thing you really wanted to do.
Honestly the Hot! Bottle seemed a lot more like a beaker of Magma than a potion so my mind went to some kind of failed Saxton Hale hot sauce that was literally just lava but eventually recalled. Imagine if it was like a bottle of A1 or Tapatío instead of a Molotov
@@gabegunderman482 that actually sounds great, but maybe itd be better suited as a scout cosmetic name. Idk what the cosmetic would be but something to do with being a singer i assume. Idk, tf2 names almost always have double meanings, and the phrase 'perfect pitch' already has 2 meanings, so itd just make sense to be used for something with relevancy to both meanings, rather than just the one.
I’d say an interesting mechanic for the “All-Star’s cannon” could be that successive hits decrease charge time (maxing out at say 5 and a 5-10% increase per hit)
One idea that I had was to gain your shot back if you get a hit, which I think would be a better replacement for the faster firing speed Blue implemented on my weapon
I'm pretty sure that so-called suppressed carbine was actually a picture of a can Cannon which is basically a gun that fires cans out of it by you loading blanks into the magazine and a can into the enlarged barrel
I think that would be a good addition I would also add the part that it would or wouldn’t (I don’t really know which would be better) gain UberCharge to compare it to the Ubersaw
I don't think we can add anything to it, I think the idea is super OP as is, but I could be wrong. As a replacement for the secondary it's balanced by the crossbow and mostly fine, but as a replacement for melee it gives you, IMO, too much utility. You've got your short range team heal in the medi gun, your self defense plus additional self heal in the blutsager, and (while yes, on a cooldown) short range AOE team/self heal plus enemy damage.
i'm still shocked that we never had a molotov item for the scout, despite his personality and him having offensive throwables with the guillotine i actually had an idea similar to the one in the video for the molotov weapon in a dream, except it was named "The Extra-spicy Shake" and it had a 10 second recharge instead
@@mrsentrybuster i didnt even think about the combos with the sun on a stick. with that you could oneshot any class thats not a heavy or a soldier and leave the soldier at something like 20 health after all the afterburn.
It's basically a AoE Guillotine that assist friendly Pyro with Free Crit and make the sun on the stick OP due to it being the Bushwacka combo for scout.
The Molotov could be a scout AND pyro weapon, first because fire, obviously, but as a weapon for the fire of revolution cosmetic set added in the most recent case, as that has a Molotov too
Another way the Peaceful Protest (The Molotov) could be styled is as a Bonk! soda bottle, and it could be called "The Fanboy's Firebomb". I do really enjoy the look of the ale bottle but I just think it'd be another interesting styling
That basicly what jarate bushwacka combo is, but now insted of a slow sniper that you could outrun, you have a scout that always does crits. Maybe the sun stick from hell would need a nerf
@@meeedicthethird6423 i personally think the "molotov" Simply shouldn't deal splash damage, but just set on fire. That way, the Stick can no longer one shot weak classes
@@meeedicthethird6423 the reason that combo is stupid on sniper is because sniper is intended to be weak in close range combat, wherease with scout it fits a lot better. For example, the axtinguisher works with pyro because he’s intended to be close range. Although I still agree with you that the sun on a stick even with the molotov is poorly designed. One weapon that basically relies you have one other specific weapon equipped to work is pretty bad design. Scout running at you with his melee is a lot easier to deal with than you’d think, and the crits have to be worth it over scattergun meatshots which is not easy to do without it being broken
@@bitcidic And the obvious downside is that if there is fire, scout might run into it himself and set himself on fire. So a high risk, high reward loadout.
I think the All-Star’s Cannon was originally intended to be a T-Shirt Cannon, since the flavor text reads that it was “repurposed for the distribution of your favorite sports merchandise”, though baseballs would also make some sense in this context.
As the creator of it, it was actually meant to fire soda cans like some rifle accessories have. Just look up "soda can launcher" and you'll get a general idea whay I was going for
He also didn't recognize the weapon in the "All-Star Cannon" image the user posted, he thought it was a modern suppressed submachine gun when it's clearly a Can Cannon upper on an AR15 (a big tube you can put on an AR15 that fires soda cans and tennis balls using 5.56 blanks)
I think you could do some good shit. Maybe try a Soldier primary? They're easy to balance, and it seems perfect considering your idea was a projectile.
He ruined ur weapon imo, not being able to 2 tap a medic (SCOUT'S BREAD AND BUTTER) is very stupid It should do like 70-120 damage, with huntsmanesque velocity and charge time, and maybe like a shot every second?
for the 2 medic weapons, I think one neat mechanic would be combining them both. what if you had the jar, then you can press right click to shake it or something and swap between the effects.
Imagine if he had made a molo-bonk instead of a molotov, that would fit scout way more and also explains the "explosion damage" with metal frags flying around (the can doesn't break afterall when thrown).
8:34 HRRNG MY GOD IM CRINGING SO HARD! That’s not a suppressed carbine, that is a Can Cannon. Yes. That is a real thing that you can buy. It’s just an AR-15 with a super large barrel that you fire literal Soda cans out of.
Other people have said the first weapon is a soda can cannon but if we want to keep the sports motif of scout then mannco modified t-shirt cannon “Designed for even the largest of stadiums” “do not point at face”
Bro really channeled his inner 2020/2021 with that molotov name. Also, the launcher image wasn't a suppressed rifle, it was something called a "can cannon" which uses blanks to launch FILLED soda cans 100+ yards.
For the first weapon, I think a better idea for increasing firing speed would be to take an idea from the Dragon's Fury and have the firing speed dramatically increase after you successfully hit someone, and keep the base firing speed slower like on the original concept. (Maybe there could be an additional stipulation, for example you only get the boosted firing speed if you hit a charged shot)
One of my first reworks to my idea was to gain your shot back on a successful hit, and I think that would've been the best approach since it's pretty simple
If there's any class that should get a molotov, it'd probably be demo. Seriously, they're literally weaponized alcohol that explodes, it'd fit perfectly for him.
@Dovahkat963 make it a lunchbox item that gives him incendiary grenades/stickies in exchange for being 50% more vulnerable to fire damage when he drinks it.
I feel like The Surgical Solution seems like the kind of thing you would throw out of panic while a screaming trolldier just commits an air raid on you lol (I feel like The Ludwig Solution [Just like Benedict's Solution] could be a good rename for it)
For the medic weapon I tried to give a name that played off both of the submitted designs. Considering they are similar weapons I wanted to give them similar names that reflect their purpose, either supportive for the healing, or offensive with the crits. With that I mind I submit the twin names of The Therapist's Tonic for the healing, and The Tormentor's Tincture for the crits.
I feel like the Medic throwable would be incredibly helpful regarding uber pushes, as usually when you use stock uber or kritzkrieg you won’t have the chance to heal another teammates. What this does is allow Medic to essentially give his entire team constant healing before pushing in with an ubercharge, and not have to worry about any of them dying.
The pneumatic rifle would probably hide a lot of its stats the way the Shortstop does, we think that's a remnant of Valve at some point intending to add more 'pepperbox' class weapons instead of 'scattergun' class weapons but that's based on pretty much nothing
I've thought of several spy secondaries that would be like... ya'know like how solider has his banners 'n' boots, demo has shields, scout has throwable, but spy has only one secondary and it's just the normal sapper but worse at everything except frontier justice engi's so here are some that would shake things up a little: -The Daily Doctor Deterrent, a throwable apple that reduces medic uber if you can hit them or their patient. -The Deadly Dosage. a vial of poison that can be used to poison medkits, making anyone who picks them up marked for death for 8 seconds. the poisoned medkits have their blue replaced with red and their red cross replaced with the marked for death symbol so that you can tell them apart. -and The Fake Friend, a deployable that would create one of the wooden class cutouts that for the enemy appears as a rival teammate of your choosing standing still with their primary out. if it's a heavy, its revving and if it's a sniper, it's scoped.
Honestly I think BiNC would have been a really cool weapon concept of it got tweaked a bit. Not only would it completely Scout’s Soda trilogy, but it would add a unique effect that would be well utilized. Here are my tweaked BiNC stats: + Dealing damage increases BiNC meter + + On Full BiNC Bar: Drink to gain +15% movement speed and +50% damage resistance vs sentrys for 10 seconds + + Dealing damage under BiNC effects will give recharge to all meters + - Dealing damage under BiNC effects increases damage vulnerability vs players, capping at 50% - - -50% BiNC recharge when Dealing damage with BiNC - • BiNC recharges based on damage output, taking less damage to recharge depending on damage output with last BiNC effects •
crossbow, quick fix, and surgical solution/physicians fix. absolutely perfect loadout. if they let this weapon get in the game this will be my medic loadout
fun silly goofy advice for making good molotov cocktails (in minecraft) that isn't illegal to know but is illegal to put into practice in the usa (in minecraft) so definitely dont: -if using alcohol, use the highest proof you can get your hands on (ideally 100%) ~gasoline isn't the best on its own cuz it burns well but doesnt last long- you'll get an initial explosion but not much else. mix with roofing tar or motor oil(?) for it to last longer (and get bonus points, cuz it'll stick to the target!) ~kerosene/paraffin works well, as you can guess cuz its a lamp oil ~you don't need to fill the bottle all the way. 3/4 should be enough -most wine bottles are designed to not break when dropped, so they aren't the best to use. beer bottles are better, or even mason jars! (you can always score a bottle first to make it weaker, though do be careful because you're cutting glass and if you go too far you might cause leaking or just break the bottle altogether) -the wick used (whatever rag you're lighting before throwing; avoid synthetic materials) should only be two or so inches long outside of the bottle, with most of it being inside soaking up the liquid. you just need the fire to last long enough to ignite the fuel when the bottle breaks! Make sure to pack the wick tightly in the mouth of the bottle so nothing spills -right before lighting and throwing the molotov, quickly turn (and then un-turn) the bottle upside-down to soak the wick a little. light it and then throw it IMMEDIATELY! ~when throwing, make sure to aim at hard surfaces instead of soft ones. Sure, a bush would be a good target for starting a fire, but the bottle is much more likely to break when it hits the ground beneath it instead of the thin branches. also, remember this is only for minecraft pvp so never do this in real life, but the pavement beneath a person's feet is a much better target than the person themself. ~throw overhand, like a throwing axe! you'll get more force compared to underhand. but remember this is all stuff that's only for minecraft and not real life and possession of a molotov cocktail is totally illegal so like never make one. but its totally cool to write this information down! (in minecraft, of course) edit: stupid youtube putting strikethroughs
For the scout cannon maybe in order to avoid 3 uncharged shots being fired really quickly you could add a firing speed increase after every fully charged shot, or an increase just dependent on the charge
Recommending the name The Fifth Humor for the Medic throwable, as a reference to the four humors of older humoral theory, in a fun twist, they’re actually real and Medic discovered a new one!
I think in addition to the Curveball there should be a function that discourages charging and holding a full powered shot like how the Demoman's fully charged sticky bomb fires automatically. That function may have been implied, seeing as how you drew parallels between it and the sticky bomb launcher often, but I feel like I should explicitly say it just in case.
I think the intention for the launcher was to be like a Tshirt cannon (like you see at sports events), but I like the idea of launching Baseballs. Maybe one of those would have made for a more interesting base for the visual design?
The user’s intention was a can cannon, it’s an AR-15 with an enlarged barrel that you load cans into the barrel allowing you to take a magazine of blank firing 5.56 ammo to launch the cans, user likely wanted the projectile to be a Bonk! can.
@TotallyNotToaster I figured Tshirt cannon based off of the description before the rebalance, which mentions it was used by Mannco to launch merchandise.
@@totallynottoaster1114 Just from how Blue was talking it doesn't seem like he's familiar with firearms. But that didn't stop me from yelling at my screen for that whole section
There's a medic melee on the workshop that's a beaker full of liquid complete with a shattered model like Demo's bottle. You could potentially take the Surgical Solution and make it a support melee akin to the Disciplinary Action, with splash healing as a "one-and-done" effect like the Ullapool Caber (probably with a recharge).
Weapon Concepts in TF2 have always seemed like a strange case to me. On one hand there are a lot of great ideas floating around the community. But on the other hand, Valve never pays the game any attention, so these never have a chance of making it into the game.
For the first concept I think it would've been a cool idea if it was a shirt cannon like you see in big league games. Yes it was invented in the 90s, but they used slingshot versions before that (didn't have enough range originally) which could also be a downside too
Uh yeah if a weapon says something like “-10% damage” that’s usually relative to... yknow... the base damage of the weapon. The base damage for the scattergun is 6 damage for 10 pellets AKA 60 damage. That would mean the projectile at 0 charge deals 54 damage (60 - 6) and at full charge would deal 90 (~=54*1.67)
The medic jar seems op, specifically in a competitive environment. Medic is pretty vulnerable to being bombed in competitive settings and he rarely has the opportunity to use his melee anyway. The self heal would really help him survive being jumped and the bleed would be really annoying for spies to deal with. Especially on payload defense, where most spies sit and wait for an opportunity to stab the medic, him being able to randomly throw a bleed around whenever he wants seems a bit much.
just something I noticed that you may not have, unless I'm mistaken the 1st scout weapon is based off of a can cannon but with a charge mechanic. hope this helps.
a pretty fun idea for the scout molotov I had was a throwable with 60 extra switch speed (in general like the old degrease), sets enemies on fire and deals 20 damage in the radius of a rocket or the jarate. It recharges every 20 seconds and damage dealt decreases the timer (50:1, a full meatshot would decrease the timer by around 12.50 seconds) and the main idea is to run in and out of battle dousing enemies in the molotov and running back in to pick them off with your scatter. This would be a good alternative playstyle for scouts wanting to have some effect on a whole group of enemies rather than being a 1v1 master. It would also pair really well with the soda popper and soas, since melee covers the soda popper's low sustainability and the molotov validates the stick's schdict. It's trade off is worse 1v1 duels since 20 damage isn't all that much considering the reason you've switched to your secondary is because you beefed your scatter shots. It would also work worse in competitive formats since people will generally be more spread out to reduce splash damage, and most comp lobbies are 6v6 or 7v7 anyway. It would lose the mid to long range harrassment capabilities of stock, but it could work around this by being spammed mid-1v1 if you can manage to aim the splash away from the person you're fighting, meatshot the guy, then throw it again.
For the all-star's cannon, it feels like it's supposed to be based on the scattergun's 10x6 base damage. This is a little strange, because it doesn't mention a pellet reduction, which means technically it's supposed to be 10x5.4, but given it's based on a t-shirt launcher, I'm going to assume it's a single pellet projectile. So on the base stats, it's missing -90% pellets, +900% damage. edit: just realized the opening blurb about the projectile says "fires projectile... instead of pellets" so yeah, it's one projectile dealing 60-10% instead of 10x6-10%
i really love the physician fix concept, would be interesting to give medic more stuff he can do differently, like you would have the reliable but close ranged medigun, the long ranged crossbow and the jar that could be lobed around ledges and stuff. That's 2 different kind of projectile you have to train yourself to use and it could also mean that running crossbow might not be just as a default pick as now, I still think medic should have more interesting stuff on needle gun slots tho
My first thought when I saw the first weapon was "front loading t-shirt cannon" based on the provided flavor text, but the baseball launcher you ended up with looks amazing! I can easily imagine the reload animation being Scout using the thing under the barrel like a pump action, and the gun shakes a bit when it's ready to fire again.
I think a silenced shotgun for heavy would be epic. Like the one Anton Chigurh uses. No idea what the stats would be but it would be named something like The One Right Tool.
Making it a generic molative is hardly in the whacky spirit of TF2, and the name is hardly a joke. Make it a bucket of chicken called the "Hell fire Mannhocks" With saxton hale's face on the front done in the same style as the Kernal sander's KFX bucket. Then make an alternate skin for it called the "Lemons that burn your house down" with the apurture science logo on the side of a similar looking box.
I had this idea for a new snapper for spy Similar to the red tape recorder, the sapper does not kill the sentry, but instead after maybe 15 seconds swaps its team colour and becomes a new entity (as in the engineer cant destroy or buff it since it belongs to the other team). And then after maybe 30 seconds after it switches it would self destruct. And to make it more balanced, the sapper only works on sentries and removes the spies disguise or something. Sounds too op though They could figure out a way to balance it
I think it would be cool but I think a slight delay to its firing speed would be in order and slower holster speed too. That way you're having to aim/choose more carefully which building you sap and cant just spam into the engie nest like a regular sapper and then easily switch to a knife to stab and steal the sentry. Basically make it require slightly more skill and be easier to punish but have the new utility of team switching. Also make it so friendly engies can heal it but not upgrade it or move it, so if its a level 2 sentry thats all you get. I dont think it should last only 30 seconds because sentries without an engie to heal them are weak anyway.
I personally think having the ‘surgical solution’ replace the melee instead of the syringe gun is overpowered. Allowing for both the insane long-range single target healing of the crossbow, the AOE healing of the solution and the ubercharge all in one package would be overpowered and would completely shake up the balance. I’d have it replace the syringe gun and give it (and the crossbow if it was ever added in an update) a slower holster speed. And if you really don’t want it replacing the syringe gun why not throw a curveball in and have it replace the Medigun. Maybe give it increased healing and a faster cool-down. Just a thought tho
Custom weapons are always such an interesting thing to explore, I just wish Valve handed over the games updates to the community but part of me knows it's too good to be true.
@@Aibadenshi Depends how it's done y'know? I would love to see more community made maps brought into the rotation. Custom weapons may just be too much for the base game though
The design stuff is my favorite tbh. There's lots of things I never thought about with my own ideas for weapons and how they'd affect the rest of the game and the class
The thing with the peaceful protest is it can combo with sun on a stick, which would be fun to do kind of being like the old sandman combo but without the stun and insane damage all at once it dealing 114 damage and if it does 4 seconds of after burn and combo with sun on a stick it could do 146.
For the Medic weapon, what about medieval mode? Sure, you can run the crossbow, but there's no guarantee someone will use that (or even have it at all).
Man, designing weapons for TF2 is a fun hobby. Having to make sure everything is taken into account makes for a good mental challenge. You know, talking things like competitive and MvM. Giving scout more fire-based weapons is also a curious addition but for some reason those two classes always had this vague connection to each other. The Physicians Fix doing damage and bleed the in an area makes it a spy-checking tool, unless disguised spies are allowed to heal from it instead. More so, if it also extinguishes fire, imagine putting out an enemy spy as well as heal them. It being a projectile also means enemy pyros can deflect it back at you or themselves.
Just found your channel and this was my favorite video so far, I love watching you design the weapons in illustrator as well! More like this would ve great
My reaction of that Information, a Revelation, of something wich i cannot comprehend , how did you come up with something so bizarre, making me repulse from my thought now.
Some words on the jars: I think that, if you do a second episode, should totally remix the minicrit medic jar, as I think it could be an interesting challenge to differentiate it from the prescription. Another idea of mine was having the medic throwable able to replace either the secondary or melee. This move would pair well with my previous idea: perhaps the blue jar would give minicrits to the medic, who would then ubersaw a nearby demo to death or smth. The throwables for medic in general just open up so many doors.
I don't know about the pressure gauge. Seems like a detail that's too.. I don't know, _smart_ for Scout? I'm also a little surprised you didn't actually keep the theme of a Nerf tennis launcher and gave it some in-universe toy branding similar to Bonk, Criticola, and the Atomiser.
I have some weapon ideas but not discord so im putting them here: Weapon 1:The Flying pan (frying pan weapon type and is usable by all classes and is melee) Pros: Upon hit: the target is launched into the air and is temporarily stunned. -25% time taken changing to and from this weapon Cons: -25% damage Upon miss: you cant change weapons or attoack for 4 seconds. Description: time your enemies a lesson, flying. Weapon 2: The Anti-Air-Attack (Rocket launcher usable by soldier) Pros: Upon hitting enemies in the air: they are sent flying towards the ground about 2 times faster than gravity and take extra fall damage. +25% explosion area. Cons: -40% dammage -50% rocket knockback on yourself. Descrition: press ALT-Fire to explode your rocket middair and send enemjes plummeting to the ground. Weapon 3: The Gasionizer (sticky launcher for demoman) Instead of exploding, sticky mines release a thick cloud of smoke that enemies cant see through and move slower in while increasing their mouse sensitivity to make them get lost for about 30 seconds. Pros: +50% explosion radius(radis that gas stays in) +25% max charge Deals 7 dammage a second to enemies in smoke but cant kill them. Cons: Smoke blurrs teamates vision slightly and they cant use primaries in the smoke -75% damage. Description: cloud your enemies vission and confuse them, leaving them easy to pick off. Weapon 4: The baboon bamboozler (wand for scout, pyro and spy and is a melee weapon for all but spy where it replaces their gun ) Instead of attacking you telleport a good distance or behind an enemy while and automatically equip you melee weapon. Pros: +25% movement speed and jump height. +10% clip size. Cons: Only 100 max health with no overheal from medics. Can only be used once per life/ use of refill at spawn room or makes loud noise on use and can be used once per minute. No random crits Description: bamboozle your enemy and as they wonder where they are they end up back at the respawn point.
How about the “Mischung Mess”? Mischung, according to Google translate, is German for concoction, and it maintains the alliteration. Also, given that it would be his melee, perhaps throwing it is the right alt fire, and the basic melee attack is just the worst option. Also no random crits, because then it might hit hard enough to get a kill in the situation’s where the bone saws are supposed to be important in.
“Spook’s Schooler” On backstab kill, opponent killed will gain a damage buff against you on respawn, and will be able to see the marked for death symbol above your head. The person you’re disguised as is also marked with a “marked for death” symbol, and can be damaged by the person you killed. Backstabbing the original opponent while disguised kills your disguise target as well. Backstabbing someone else clears the effect. Looks like a No5 pencil
I’d change one thing about the Solution, essentially as a hidden stat, if you throw it into a crowd, the damage gets spread out between everyone, because 40 damage to in-theory an entire team feels to offensive a tool for medic to have from a possibly pretty large range
35:11 I know I am late to comment, but I think a good name for the Medic weapon would be “The Ail-toss”. “To be ailing” means to be in bad health, it sounds like “ale” (you mentioned how lots of old medicines were alcohol), Aletoss is the name of a real cough syrup, and it has “toss” in the name. This name can also be shortened to just “Ale” in the HUD, like how Jarate and Mad Milk are shortened. Finally, the name referencing ale also allows Medic to reuse the “Oktoberfest!” line (I know that lagers are commonly drunk during Oktoberfest, but ale is just a different type of beer so I think it still works).
Funnily enough the Scout Molotov indirectly buffs the Volcano Stick, and actually gives it a purpuse
It could also pair with an Axtinguisher Pyro because ironically Scout's molotov is better at lighting lots of people on fire all at once than the Gas Passer. Scouts throws the molotov and then both him and a friendly Pyro go clean up with melees if that's a thing you really wanted to do.

I’d say an interesting mechanic for the “All-Star’s cannon” could be that successive hits decrease charge time (maxing out at say 5 and a 5-10% increase per hit)
I think it would be a bit too dragon's fury with that
I thought an interesting mechanic would be the reversed damage falloff like the Crossbow.

As a replacement for the secondary it's balanced by the crossbow and mostly fine, but as a replacement for melee it gives you, IMO, too much utility. You've got your short range team heal in the medi gun, your self defense plus additional self heal in the blutsager, and (while yes, on a cooldown) short range AOE team/self heal plus enemy damage.
It would also just be an upgrade to the amputater

I think it would fit well on the heavy because it would work well with the huo long heater
@@Appletank8 meanwhile mvm
Honestly I don't know if gameplay wise it'd be good but I could see a molotov working for demoman as something like the kaber but fire based
Would also work on Demo, since it's basically something combustible in a bottle and Demo might carry it around as drink between rounds.
Scout being given a way to ignite enemies unironically provides more of a genuine use to the sun on a stick.
yes yes it does thats why i made it
The sun always had the issue that you need to find someone burning.
If Scout can do that by himself, it becomes much more viable.
Another way the Peaceful Protest (The Molotov) could be styled is as a Bonk! soda bottle, and it could be called "The Fanboy's Firebomb". I do really enjoy the look of the ale bottle but I just think it'd be another interesting styling
Scout with the power to light enemies on fire would give the sun on a stick an actual use
That basicly what jarate bushwacka combo is, but now insted of a slow sniper that you could outrun, you have a scout that always does crits. Maybe the sun stick from hell would need a nerf
@@meeedicthethird6423 i personally think the "molotov" Simply shouldn't deal splash damage, but just set on fire. That way, the Stick can no longer one shot weak classes
@@meeedicthethird6423 the reason that combo is stupid on sniper is because sniper is intended to be weak in close range combat, wherease with scout it fits a lot better. For example, the axtinguisher works with pyro because he’s intended to be close range. Although I still agree with you that the sun on a stick even with the molotov is poorly designed. One weapon that basically relies you have one other specific weapon equipped to work is pretty bad design. Scout running at you with his melee is a lot easier to deal with than you’d think, and the crits have to be worth it over scattergun meatshots which is not easy to do without it being broken
@@bitcidic And the obvious downside is that if there is fire, scout might run into it himself and set himself on fire. So a high risk, high reward loadout.
I think the All-Star’s Cannon was originally intended to be a T-Shirt Cannon, since the flavor text reads that it was “repurposed for the distribution of your favorite sports merchandise”, though baseballs would also make some sense in this context.
As the creator of it, it was actually meant to fire soda cans like some rifle accessories have. Just look up "soda can launcher" and you'll get a general idea whay I was going for
The fact he found the baseball launcher image from a tf2 clone of all things is insane
Edit: holy crap this blew up overnight
"Yeah!"
-Scout
Funny how that those developers had the same idea as great blue
Typical colors 2
He also didn't recognize the weapon in the "All-Star Cannon" image the user posted, he thought it was a modern suppressed submachine gun when it's clearly a Can Cannon upper on an AR15 (a big tube you can put on an AR15 that fires soda cans and tennis balls using 5.56 blanks)
the "baseball launcher" is actually just the default Snowball Cannon gear from 2009. they did not make that design
Hey Blue, thanks for the mention for my weapon concept! I'll be sure to take the advice you've given for future weapon concepts!
hello fellow concepter
@DRAGONFLAIR2008 Oh hey man!
@@qcubic howdy
I think you could do some good shit. Maybe try a Soldier primary? They're easy to balance, and it seems perfect considering your idea was a projectile.
He ruined ur weapon imo, not being able to 2 tap a medic (SCOUT'S BREAD AND BUTTER) is very stupid
It should do like 70-120 damage, with huntsmanesque velocity and charge time, and maybe like a shot every second?
for the 2 medic weapons, I think one neat mechanic would be combining them both. what if you had the jar, then you can press right click to shake it or something and swap between the effects.
and like you have a 3 seconds countdown to swap it back
damn, i like that, but both would have to be nerfed bad to be balanced
@@afasdfasafd314 the thing is, I don't think they need to be nerfed, *it would compete with the übersaw for the melee slot*
Imagine if he had made a molo-bonk instead of a molotov, that would fit scout way more and also explains the "explosion damage" with metal frags flying around (the can doesn't break afterall when thrown).
"Bonk! Nuclear Blast"
There's a tf2 inspired roblox game where the scout class has a throwable soda can that causes the target's head hitbox to expand
@@badideagenerator2315flappy men
8:34 HRRNG MY GOD IM CRINGING SO HARD! That’s not a suppressed carbine, that is a Can Cannon. Yes. That is a real thing that you can buy. It’s just an AR-15 with a super large barrel that you fire literal Soda cans out of.
Other people have said the first weapon is a soda can cannon but if we want to keep the sports motif of scout then mannco modified t-shirt cannon
“Designed for even the largest of stadiums” “do not point at face”
And an arrow with "this side towards target"
This will be a great series
Bro really channeled his inner 2020/2021 with that molotov name. Also, the launcher image wasn't a suppressed rifle, it was something called a "can cannon" which uses blanks to launch FILLED soda cans 100+ yards.
Scout's weapon SHOULD be a T shirt cannon so it doesn't overlap with the sandman
For the first weapon, I think a better idea for increasing firing speed would be to take an idea from the Dragon's Fury and have the firing speed dramatically increase after you successfully hit someone, and keep the base firing speed slower like on the original concept. (Maybe there could be an additional stipulation, for example you only get the boosted firing speed if you hit a charged shot)
One of my first reworks to my idea was to gain your shot back on a successful hit, and I think that would've been the best approach since it's pretty simple
If there's any class that should get a molotov, it'd probably be demo. Seriously, they're literally weaponized alcohol that explodes, it'd fit perfectly for him.
Counterpoint: Demo would never waste perfectly good alcohol by burning it. If he's burning it, that means he's not drinking it!
@Dovahkat963 make it a lunchbox item that gives him incendiary grenades/stickies in exchange for being 50% more vulnerable to fire damage when he drinks it.
And pyro because pyro. Those 2
Or scout because sun in a stick
You should name the Molotov “dads wine”
Missed opportunity to call it the Teutonic Tonic
I feel like The Surgical Solution seems like the kind of thing you would throw out of panic while a screaming trolldier just commits an air raid on you lol (I feel like The Ludwig Solution [Just like Benedict's Solution] could be a good rename for it)
For the medic weapon I tried to give a name that played off both of the submitted designs. Considering they are similar weapons I wanted to give them similar names that reflect their purpose, either supportive for the healing, or offensive with the crits. With that I mind I submit the twin names of The Therapist's Tonic for the healing, and The Tormentor's Tincture for the crits.
It's worth noting for weapon one that's a firearm called the "can cannon", it's a blank firing adapter for ARs that allows you to shoot cans
I just realised with the medic bottle. TF2 might be in violation of the geneva convention
i was looking for this comment
I love how the picture for the first idea wasn't a suppressed AR15 but an actual can cannon. They are a blast to shoot!
Thanks man!
I feel like the Medic throwable would be incredibly helpful regarding uber pushes, as usually when you use stock uber or kritzkrieg you won’t have the chance to heal another teammates. What this does is allow Medic to essentially give his entire team constant healing before pushing in with an ubercharge, and not have to worry about any of them dying.
8:36 that’s a can cannon. It’s an AR upper receiver that uses .223 or 5.56 blanks to fire white claw cans at high speed
OH DEAR GOD THANK YOU FOR NOTICING! GOD I CRINGED SO HARD WHEN HE SAID THAT!
The pneumatic rifle would probably hide a lot of its stats the way the Shortstop does, we think that's a remnant of Valve at some point intending to add more 'pepperbox' class weapons instead of 'scattergun' class weapons but that's based on pretty much nothing
I've thought of several spy secondaries that would be like... ya'know like how solider has his banners 'n' boots, demo has shields, scout has throwable, but spy has only one secondary and it's just the normal sapper but worse at everything except frontier justice engi's so here are some that would shake things up a little:
-The Daily Doctor Deterrent, a throwable apple that reduces medic uber if you can hit them or their patient.
-The Deadly Dosage. a vial of poison that can be used to poison medkits, making anyone who picks them up marked for death for 8 seconds. the poisoned medkits have their blue replaced with red and their red cross replaced with the marked for death symbol so that you can tell them apart.
-and The Fake Friend, a deployable that would create one of the wooden class cutouts that for the enemy appears as a rival teammate of your choosing standing still with their primary out. if it's a heavy, its revving and if it's a sniper, it's scoped.
Source could break in Medieval mode if you replace the bone saw
Then make the replacement not allowed in medieval mode.
How.

Honestly I think BiNC would have been a really cool weapon concept of it got tweaked a bit.
Not only would it completely Scout’s Soda trilogy, but it would add a unique effect that would be well utilized.
Here are my tweaked BiNC stats:
+ Dealing damage increases BiNC meter +
+ On Full BiNC Bar: Drink to gain +15% movement speed and +50% damage resistance vs sentrys for 10 seconds +
+ Dealing damage under BiNC effects will give recharge to all meters +
- Dealing damage under BiNC effects increases damage vulnerability vs players, capping at 50% -
- -50% BiNC recharge when Dealing damage with BiNC -
• BiNC recharges based on damage output, taking less damage to recharge depending on damage output with last BiNC effects •
crossbow, quick fix, and surgical solution/physicians fix. absolutely perfect loadout. if they let this weapon get in the game this will be my medic loadout
fun silly goofy advice for making good molotov cocktails (in minecraft) that isn't illegal to know but is illegal to put into practice in the usa (in minecraft) so definitely dont:
-if using alcohol, use the highest proof you can get your hands on (ideally 100%)
~gasoline isn't the best on its own cuz it burns well but doesnt last long- you'll get an initial explosion but not much else. mix with roofing tar or motor oil(?) for it to last longer (and get bonus points, cuz it'll stick to the target!)
~kerosene/paraffin works well, as you can guess cuz its a lamp oil
~you don't need to fill the bottle all the way. 3/4 should be enough
-most wine bottles are designed to not break when dropped, so they aren't the best to use. beer bottles are better, or even mason jars! (you can always score a bottle first to make it weaker, though do be careful because you're cutting glass and if you go too far you might cause leaking or just break the bottle altogether)
-the wick used (whatever rag you're lighting before throwing; avoid synthetic materials) should only be two or so inches long outside of the bottle, with most of it being inside soaking up the liquid. you just need the fire to last long enough to ignite the fuel when the bottle breaks! Make sure to pack the wick tightly in the mouth of the bottle so nothing spills
-right before lighting and throwing the molotov, quickly turn (and then un-turn) the bottle upside-down to soak the wick a little. light it and then throw it IMMEDIATELY!
~when throwing, make sure to aim at hard surfaces instead of soft ones. Sure, a bush would be a good target for starting a fire, but the bottle is much more likely to break when it hits the ground beneath it instead of the thin branches. also, remember this is only for minecraft pvp so never do this in real life, but the pavement beneath a person's feet is a much better target than the person themself.
~throw overhand, like a throwing axe! you'll get more force compared to underhand.
but remember this is all stuff that's only for minecraft and not real life and possession of a molotov cocktail is totally illegal so like never make one. but its totally cool to write this information down! (in minecraft, of course)
edit: stupid youtube putting strikethroughs
For the scout cannon maybe in order to avoid 3 uncharged shots being fired really quickly you could add a firing speed increase after every fully charged shot, or an increase just dependent on the charge
Recommending the name The Fifth Humor for the Medic throwable, as a reference to the four humors of older humoral theory, in a fun twist, they’re actually real and Medic discovered a new one!
I think in addition to the Curveball there should be a function that discourages charging and holding a full powered shot like how the Demoman's fully charged sticky bomb fires automatically. That function may have been implied, seeing as how you drew parallels between it and the sticky bomb launcher often, but I feel like I should explicitly say it just in case.
I think the intention for the launcher was to be like a Tshirt cannon (like you see at sports events), but I like the idea of launching Baseballs. Maybe one of those would have made for a more interesting base for the visual design?
The user’s intention was a can cannon, it’s an AR-15 with an enlarged barrel that you load cans into the barrel allowing you to take a magazine of blank firing 5.56 ammo to launch the cans, user likely wanted the projectile to be a Bonk! can.
@TotallyNotToaster I figured Tshirt cannon based off of the description before the rebalance, which mentions it was used by Mannco to launch merchandise.
@@Zander2212 Nah, the dude's right. It was a can cannon
@@totallynottoaster1114 Just from how Blue was talking it doesn't seem like he's familiar with firearms. But that didn't stop me from yelling at my screen for that whole section
There's a medic melee on the workshop that's a beaker full of liquid complete with a shattered model like Demo's bottle. You could potentially take the Surgical Solution and make it a support melee akin to the Disciplinary Action, with splash healing as a "one-and-done" effect like the Ullapool Caber (probably with a recharge).
I think the all-star cannon was supposed to be a T-Shirt cannon, the kind you see mascots using
Weapon Concepts in TF2 have always seemed like a strange case to me. On one hand there are a lot of great ideas floating around the community. But on the other hand, Valve never pays the game any attention, so these never have a chance of making it into the game.
Tf2 is a victim of valve's poor corporate structure
but tf2 classic exists and people are crazy enough to add custom weapons to that though most of the servers i see are pretty ridiculous
the medic throwable breaks geneva's conventions
For the first concept I think it would've been a cool idea if it was a shirt cannon like you see in big league games. Yes it was invented in the 90s, but they used slingshot versions before that (didn't have enough range originally) which could also be a downside too
Uh yeah if a weapon says something like “-10% damage” that’s usually relative to... yknow... the base damage of the weapon. The base damage for the scattergun is 6 damage for 10 pellets AKA 60 damage. That would mean the projectile at 0 charge deals 54 damage (60 - 6) and at full charge would deal 90 (~=54*1.67)
The medic jar seems op, specifically in a competitive environment. Medic is pretty vulnerable to being bombed in competitive settings and he rarely has the opportunity to use his melee anyway. The self heal would really help him survive being jumped and the bleed would be really annoying for spies to deal with. Especially on payload defense, where most spies sit and wait for an opportunity to stab the medic, him being able to randomly throw a bleed around whenever he wants seems a bit much.
Who cares about comp though
@@badideagenerator2315 These situations they list aren't exclusive to comp though.
just something I noticed that you may not have, unless I'm mistaken the 1st scout weapon is based off of a can cannon but with a charge mechanic. hope this helps.
9:03 As a typical colors player, seeing the game make any kind of cameo in a video, makes me really happy for some reason.
im just wondering how the fuck he landed there
a pretty fun idea for the scout molotov I had was a throwable with 60 extra switch speed (in general like the old degrease), sets enemies on fire and deals 20 damage in the radius of a rocket or the jarate. It recharges every 20 seconds and damage dealt decreases the timer (50:1, a full meatshot would decrease the timer by around 12.50 seconds) and the main idea is to run in and out of battle dousing enemies in the molotov and running back in to pick them off with your scatter. This would be a good alternative playstyle for scouts wanting to have some effect on a whole group of enemies rather than being a 1v1 master. It would also pair really well with the soda popper and soas, since melee covers the soda popper's low sustainability and the molotov validates the stick's schdict. It's trade off is worse 1v1 duels since 20 damage isn't all that much considering the reason you've switched to your secondary is because you beefed your scatter shots. It would also work worse in competitive formats since people will generally be more spread out to reduce splash damage, and most comp lobbies are 6v6 or 7v7 anyway. It would lose the mid to long range harrassment capabilities of stock, but it could work around this by being spammed mid-1v1 if you can manage to aim the splash away from the person you're fighting, meatshot the guy, then throw it again.
this needs a sequel.
Take a drink every time Great Blue says Ideally
For the all-star's cannon, it feels like it's supposed to be based on the scattergun's 10x6 base damage. This is a little strange, because it doesn't mention a pellet reduction, which means technically it's supposed to be 10x5.4, but given it's based on a t-shirt launcher, I'm going to assume it's a single pellet projectile.
So on the base stats, it's missing -90% pellets, +900% damage.
edit: just realized the opening blurb about the projectile says "fires projectile... instead of pellets" so yeah, it's one projectile dealing 60-10% instead of 10x6-10%
Yep, all stats were based off of the scattergun
i really love the physician fix concept, would be interesting to give medic more stuff he can do differently, like you would have the reliable but close ranged medigun, the long ranged crossbow and the jar that could be lobed around ledges and stuff. That's 2 different kind of projectile you have to train yourself to use and it could also mean that running crossbow might not be just as a default pick as now, I still think medic should have more interesting stuff on needle gun slots tho
The curveball's final design kinda seems something like a scout's huntsman
I didn't realize that in the making of it until now
My first thought when I saw the first weapon was "front loading t-shirt cannon" based on the provided flavor text, but the baseball launcher you ended up with looks amazing! I can easily imagine the reload animation being Scout using the thing under the barrel like a pump action, and the gun shakes a bit when it's ready to fire again.
I definitely saw it as a T-shirt cannon too.
I think a silenced shotgun for heavy would be epic. Like the one Anton Chigurh uses. No idea what the stats would be but it would be named something like The One Right Tool.
For the “silent” part I say either a pretty quiet firing sound, or no hit indicator.
The "Scout Molotov" is essentially an Underpowered Scorch Shot for Scouts.
Would love for you to hire a source mod/vscript developer to actually visualize and make these useable!
Making it a generic molative is hardly in the whacky spirit of TF2, and the name is hardly a joke.
Make it a bucket of chicken called the "Hell fire Mannhocks" With saxton hale's face on the front done in the same style as the Kernal sander's KFX bucket. Then make an alternate skin for it called the "Lemons that burn your house down" with the apurture science logo on the side of a similar looking box.
10/10
you should continue your random weapon generator drawing series.
I would've made the fire throwable into a jar of salsa personally
I think the molotov would make for a good alternative for the mad milk in mvm for a more damage focused scout
I like the idea of throwable AoE items for the medic. Ana's throwable in OW is really fun to use and adds some more depth to the gameplay.
I had this idea for a new snapper for spy
Similar to the red tape recorder, the sapper does not kill the sentry, but instead after maybe 15 seconds swaps its team colour and becomes a new entity (as in the engineer cant destroy or buff it since it belongs to the other team).
And then after maybe 30 seconds after it switches it would self destruct.
And to make it more balanced, the sapper only works on sentries and removes the spies disguise or something.
Sounds too op though
They could figure out a way to balance it
I think it would be cool but I think a slight delay to its firing speed would be in order and slower holster speed too.
That way you're having to aim/choose more carefully which building you sap and cant just spam into the engie nest like a regular sapper and then easily switch to a knife to stab and steal the sentry.
Basically make it require slightly more skill and be easier to punish but have the new utility of team switching. Also make it so friendly engies can heal it but not upgrade it or move it, so if its a level 2 sentry thats all you get.
I dont think it should last only 30 seconds because sentries without an engie to heal them are weak anyway.
I personally think having the ‘surgical solution’ replace the melee instead of the syringe gun is overpowered. Allowing for both the insane long-range single target healing of the crossbow, the AOE healing of the solution and the ubercharge all in one package would be overpowered and would completely shake up the balance.
I’d have it replace the syringe gun and give it (and the crossbow if it was ever added in an update) a slower holster speed. And if you really don’t want it replacing the syringe gun why not throw a curveball in and have it replace the Medigun. Maybe give it increased healing and a faster cool-down. Just a thought tho
Custom weapons are always such an interesting thing to explore, I just wish Valve handed over the games updates to the community but part of me knows it's too good to be true.
Good idea. But it will be somewhat horrible on practice.
Custom weapons in the tf2 community has always been a strange case to me
@@Aibadenshi Depends how it's done y'know? I would love to see more community made maps brought into the rotation. Custom weapons may just be too much for the base game though
@@jey5806 You'll need a 5$ key to unlock it, sorry
@@RedFragmentation Yes. But the community it's own worst enemy on how thing should be done. So I don't have high hope for them to work.
The design stuff is my favorite tbh. There's lots of things I never thought about with my own ideas for weapons and how they'd affect the rest of the game and the class
I love that you put some much time and efforts in this video, even recreating custom icons for the weapons. Good job !
I really love these weapon design/rebalance videos.
The thing with the peaceful protest is it can combo with sun on a stick, which would be fun to do kind of being like the old sandman combo but without the stun and insane damage all at once it dealing 114 damage and if it does 4 seconds of after burn and combo with sun on a stick it could do 146.
I think that cough syrup throwable for medic should have had something in German on its label.
"and other types of books that have words in them" ah yes, my favourite reading book, pictures.
For the Medic weapon, what about medieval mode? Sure, you can run the crossbow, but there's no guarantee someone will use that (or even have it at all).
Man, designing weapons for TF2 is a fun hobby. Having to make sure everything is taken into account makes for a good mental challenge. You know, talking things like competitive and MvM.
Giving scout more fire-based weapons is also a curious addition but for some reason those two classes always had this vague connection to each other.
The Physicians Fix doing damage and bleed the in an area makes it a spy-checking tool, unless disguised spies are allowed to heal from it instead. More so, if it also extinguishes fire, imagine putting out an enemy spy as well as heal them.
It being a projectile also means enemy pyros can deflect it back at you or themselves.
All-star cannon seems like the perfect name, its baseball themed and describes what it does pretty well
Thanks man!
Just found your channel and this was my favorite video so far, I love watching you design the weapons in illustrator as well! More like this would ve great
Yo! This is really cool! Amazing job!
My reaction of that Information, a Revelation, of something wich i cannot comprehend , how did you come up with something so bizarre, making me repulse from my thought now.
Some words on the jars: I think that, if you do a second episode, should totally remix the minicrit medic jar, as I think it could be an interesting challenge to differentiate it from the prescription. Another idea of mine was having the medic throwable able to replace either the secondary or melee. This move would pair well with my previous idea: perhaps the blue jar would give minicrits to the medic, who would then ubersaw a nearby demo to death or smth. The throwables for medic in general just open up so many doors.
I don't know about the pressure gauge. Seems like a detail that's too.. I don't know, _smart_ for Scout? I'm also a little surprised you didn't actually keep the theme of a Nerf tennis launcher and gave it some in-universe toy branding similar to Bonk, Criticola, and the Atomiser.
24:03 “books that have words in them”
- Great Blue, 2023
I have some weapon ideas but not discord so im putting them here:
Weapon 1:The Flying pan (frying pan weapon type and is usable by all classes and is melee)
Pros:
Upon hit: the target is launched into the air and is temporarily stunned.
-25% time taken changing to and from this weapon
Cons:
-25% damage
Upon miss: you cant change weapons or attoack for 4 seconds.
Description: time your enemies a lesson, flying.
Weapon 2:
The Anti-Air-Attack (Rocket launcher usable by soldier)
Pros:
Upon hitting enemies in the air: they are sent flying towards the ground about 2 times faster than gravity and take extra fall damage.
+25% explosion area.
Cons:
-40% dammage
-50% rocket knockback on yourself.
Descrition: press ALT-Fire to explode your rocket middair and send enemjes plummeting to the ground.
Weapon 3:
The Gasionizer (sticky launcher for demoman)
Instead of exploding, sticky mines release a thick cloud of smoke that enemies cant see through and move slower in while increasing their mouse sensitivity to make them get lost for about 30 seconds.
Pros:
+50% explosion radius(radis that gas stays in)
+25% max charge
Deals 7 dammage a second to enemies in smoke but cant kill them.
Cons:
Smoke blurrs teamates vision slightly and they cant use primaries in the smoke
-75% damage.
Description: cloud your enemies vission and confuse them, leaving them easy to pick off.
Weapon 4:
The baboon bamboozler (wand for scout, pyro and spy and is a melee weapon for all but spy where it replaces their gun )
Instead of attacking you telleport a good distance or behind an enemy while and automatically equip you melee weapon.
Pros:
+25% movement speed and jump height.
+10% clip size.
Cons:
Only 100 max health with no overheal from medics.
Can only be used once per life/ use of refill at spawn room or makes loud noise on use and can be used once per minute.
No random crits
Description: bamboozle your enemy and as they wonder where they are they end up back at the respawn point.
14:33 “…if not, a little bit annoying to play against?” so you’re saying it’s PERFECT for Scout
babe wake up new great blue video just dropped
How about the “Mischung Mess”? Mischung, according to Google translate, is German for concoction, and it maintains the alliteration.
Also, given that it would be his melee, perhaps throwing it is the right alt fire, and the basic melee attack is just the worst option. Also no random crits, because then it might hit hard enough to get a kill in the situation’s where the bone saws are supposed to be important in.
The names are great. Great job on this vid.
I'd still keep the physicians fix on the primary to contest the crossbow that thing is too strong
“Spook’s Schooler”
On backstab kill, opponent killed will gain a damage buff against you on respawn, and will be able to see the marked for death symbol above your head.
The person you’re disguised as is also marked with a “marked for death” symbol, and can be damaged by the person you killed.
Backstabbing the original opponent while disguised kills your disguise target as well.
Backstabbing someone else clears the effect.
Looks like a No5 pencil
Your vector art is looking great! Really works well with the TF2 style, reminds me of the flat, colour-blocked shading you see on old posters .
Good job designing these. Keep going man, it’s looking good.
I’d change one thing about the Solution, essentially as a hidden stat, if you throw it into a crowd, the damage gets spread out between everyone, because 40 damage to in-theory an entire team feels to offensive a tool for medic to have from a possibly pretty large range
The AR thing is called a can cannon and it came before the nerf tennis ball launcher
35:11 I know I am late to comment, but I think a good name for the Medic weapon would be “The Ail-toss”.
“To be ailing” means to be in bad health, it sounds like “ale” (you mentioned how lots of old medicines were alcohol), Aletoss is the name of a real cough syrup, and it has “toss” in the name. This name can also be shortened to just “Ale” in the HUD, like how Jarate and Mad Milk are shortened. Finally, the name referencing ale also allows Medic to reuse the “Oktoberfest!” line (I know that lagers are commonly drunk during Oktoberfest, but ale is just a different type of beer so I think it still works).
I would LOVE to see more of these videos, this was great!
Imagine molotov but with a soda can
