  • For the very first time on Gamology, the wacky and cartoony world of Team Fortress 2 is taking center stage, finally receiving the well-deserved love it has long merited. In this highly anticipated episode of Total Recoil, hosts Paul Meixner and Israel Wright are embarking on a wild adventure, diving headfirst into the game's arsenal of outrageous weapons to uncover the real-life inspirations that may have influenced their creation.

    From handcrafted triple rocket launchers to a Tommy gun that has been ingeniously converted into a minigun, the more outlandish and silly the weapons appear, the more fun Meixner and Wright will have analyzing them. Even the most insane and over-the-top armaments in video game history often draw some level of inspiration from real-world counterparts, and our intrepid hosts are determined to unearth these connections. So grab your sandwich, don your trusty Gibus, and join Paul and Israel as they navigate the delightfully unhinged world of Team Fortress 2, providing an entertaining and insightful look at the surprising realities behind some of gaming's most outrageous weapons.
    
    Team Fortress 2 is a multiplayer first-person shooter game developed and published by Valve Corporation. Players join one of two teams, RED and BLU, and choose one of nine character classes to play as in game modes such as capture the flag and king of the hill.
    In most game modes, BLU and RED compete for a combat-based objective. Players can choose to play as one of nine character classes in these teams, each with its own unique strengths, weaknesses, and weapon sets. In order to accomplish objectives efficiently, a balance of these classes is required due to how these strengths and weaknesses interact with each other in a team-based environment. Although the abilities of a number of classes have changed from earlier Team Fortress incarnations, the basic elements of each class have remained, that being one primary weapon, one secondary weapon, and one melee weapon. The game was released with six official maps, although over one hundred maps have since been included in subsequent updates, including community-created maps. When players choose a game mode for the first time, an introductory video is played, showing how to complete its objectives. During matches, the Administrator, voiced by Ellen McLain, announces events over loudspeakers.

    "The widowmaker could just be really unreliable so you're the one dying"
    Yes actually, the Widowmaker's gimmick is that it uses the engineer's "metal" supply (which he uses to build sentry guns and other stuff) as ammo but reloads on hit.
    If you have perfect aim with it you've got an infinite clip, but too many missed shots or destroyed buildings leaves you up the creek without a paddle.

  • @Morveyn
    @Morveyn 2 года назад +793

    12:10 The Widowmaker is modeled after a weapon from the Deus Ex series of science fiction games, and was added as part of a crossover event way back when, along with the Machina sniper rifle. So, yeah, it definitely looks more modern and a bit out of place compared to the rest of the guns in the game and the mid-20th century vibe they generally have.

    Fun Fact: TF2 used to be incredibly detailed with it's weapon models. Bullets would actually be missing in the compartment, hammers would cock back, reloading animations would be logical depending on how the weapon's looks. But over the years and the many localization files updates, the textures became crappier and the gun animations didn't make sense anymore with the new balance patches and updates so they either left them as they are or scrapped them entirely.

      @walmorcarvalho2512 2 года назад +138

      And some of that actually made sense because, with the game going f2p and a rush of new players joining in, they had to cut down on the textures and animations to make the game more accessible for lower-end machines and lighter on the servers, but yeah in the end each update and rebalnce Valve was making it pretty clear they just don't care for this game anymore.

    Keep in mind, that you dont "Choose" the weapons in this game.
    theres a selection of characters and each character specializes in a certain weapon type, so if you play the character you gotta work wijth what you have.
    The guy with the pistol, the spy, hes a stealth character, meant to use his melee weapon to stab people in the back, instantly killing them, then slip away invisible, so his pistol isnt really meant to compete against the other characters guns, its more of a backup weapo more than anything. the spy can only carry a pistol and a knife, for example.
    The soldier can only carry a bazooka and a shotgun, and the heavy can only carry a minigun and a shotgun.
    while the scout can carry a shotgun and a pistol.

    So a common strategy for Soldier is to use a rocket to pop them up in the air and then finish them off with the shotgun. One of the reasons is because the time to kill is effectively equivalent but conserving a rocket in the “clip” is a massive deal. Rockets can be overkill with how much damage they deal, so a shotgun blast can finish others off without needing immediate reload to keep the streak going.

    8:28 That's the understatement of the century. This is a game where shooting a rocket at your feet to jump higher is actively encouraged, and where many players see replacing their shotgun with a pair of steel-toed boots as a fair trade because the boots let you rocket jump more frequently.

    My favorite goofy weapon is the Scout's default scattergun, because it's a double barrel shotgun, but it's also lever action, but it also has a drum barrel, but also he never actually reloads new shots into it, he just ejects the used shells. It's a mess and I love it for that.

    About the Demoman's reload animation, the game had a way for the default grenade launcher which rotates and after every nađe that is inserted, it would rotate to put another one (you would also be a able to see the grenades in the case), however they removed that and made an universal reload animation for all grenade launchers, even though it doesn't look realistic, The Iron Bomber has smaller barrels and in the animation it looks like he is dropping them on the floor

    Interesting thing to know about tf2, the sniper is only long range class in the game. There are some ways for other classes to deal decent damage at long range, but its usually situational or difficult to do, while sniper deals incredible damage at long range always and simply by shooting them with a hitscan weapon. This is why most maps arent extremely open, to stop the snipers from having sight of the entire map and sniping everyone without having any contest, of course there are some open areas, but the good maps also make sure to have flank routes that lets someone take out an oppressive sniper.

      @@markmathis9616 Well here is the thing, buddy.
      Do you even know how the backscatter works?
      The idea for this weapon is for you to flank with it, this weapon does mini crits when you shot the enemy from the back to deal the most among the damage possible, and...that's it.
      You do very low damage when shooting anyone in any direction but in their backs...while the Baby blaster or the scattergun allows you to do high damage no matter where you shot as long as you're close enough.
      Plus, on RUclips, there is a lot of videos showing how Baby's face blaster can be used effectively, sure you lose most of your boost if you DOUBLE jump or take 25 of damage but with the right weapons you can get that boost back.
      In my opinion.
      The ranking for all of Scout's primaries would be like.
      Top 1-Scattergun and Soda popper.
      Top 2-Force of Nature and Baby's face Blaster and Shortstop.
      Top 3-Backscatter.
      Because honestly, there is just no reason for you to use the backscatter, not even for a meme weapon, it's just so useless and bad.

    Thought I'd clarify a bunch of things about the game for ya guys.
    1:12 The Backscatter is designed to shoot at your enemies right behind them. It mini - crits if you hit an enemies back, but it has a greater bullet spread.
    5:18 The Beggar's Bazooka is canonically garbage, which is why it looks so messed up.
    7:31 Shotguns aren't real good compared to most other weapons. In terms of the panic attack, you use it when you run out of ammo for your primary, or to finish it off(Hence why the soldier pulls it out after hitting enemies with his rockets.)
    9:28 The Spy is doing what is referred to as the 'Spy-Crab' which is a bug with how spy looks when holding up his disguise cloak and crouching in a specific way.
    10:42 The Tomislav is classified as a minigun in-game, and is weld by the big Russian tank Heavy.
    12:10 The Widowmaker uses Engineers metal as ammo(Metal being used to build support buildings, only having a limited supply) but you regain some metal if you successfully hit a target. This makes it better if you have good aim.
    17:24 The Ambassador crits if you hit an enemies' head. This also is good on Spy because he can disguise as an enemy to get closer to them, making hitting the head-shots easier.

But if you want to go even more technical, scout shoots snake shot from shot stop. Snake shot being a shotgun shell for pistols to shoot at snakes. But scout having only 4 pellets in one shot.

In terms of close range action the back scatter is for the scout class which is a close to medium range only class he is very effective at these ranges and his weapons, the same. Sniper is one of the most powerful classes too long range takes out almost half the classes with a quickscope headshot and every single class with a full 4second charged headshot :D
