Yes.

semipsychotic

Half the cast could come straight from FMJ. Then the Spy would need to be very British (or French, not a bad idea either) and very out of place, making his disguise all the more cunning...

In other news, that still is definitely macro-worthy. Let's get some witty text, now.

Andre The Giant is deceased.

Hey, TC said he's "not really up to date on the French people."

Seems he's a little behind on the pro wrestlers too... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

Thansal

He had Gigantisim (or sometihng like that), that was basicly a highely over active pituitary gland. The defect is now treatable (my brother went to middle school and HS with a guy with the same problem). He died of heart failure in 1993 (thank you WP).

He was also French, thus Tycho is excused any way.

Paranoia2MB

Graphics look lame, but omg I LOL'D so hard.

"It cost 400,000 to fire this weapon for 12 seconds."

I need to see if I can d/l that trailer.

the_x5

Yeah but the mask on the spy... definitely NOT James Bond-ish.

And the pyro?

And as far as the engineer being David Hewett's SG-Atlantis personality: we need to have CONTRASTING personalities and classes. The engineer should be the technology nerd. Overall the need to be as obessed about what their class's role is as the HW guy was.

~edit~

I should also point out that the scout and engineer have the least armor and health in the original TFC. The engineer's EMP grenades and the stuff they build are their true strengths.

TheSavior

This movie, especially his face during the firing sequences at the end, made me want this game even more. And that is a hard feat to accomplish.

rofl x5 and Tycho


I've always been a Demolition guy at heart. ^.^

I miss it when you could set 3 diff timer charges, then they made it just to the 1 15sec charge =\

Thansal

crappit...


I WANT EP2!!!!!!

It is kinda sad.

At the end of EP1 I was REALLY looking forwards to EP2.

Then Portal got tied in with EP2, so I really wanted EP2 even MORE!

Now TF2 is tied in with it, and TF2 is looking better and better by the second!


GAHHHHH!!!


/me pokes THEM with a sharp stick.

CODE FASTER!

I remember setting a 30s timer on a bridge.
Everything went on as normal(because noone plays as scout) except with a bomb in the middle making people vaguely nervous... then suddenly, there's a LOUD WHINE, and I get 3 kills. Pure luck, never did it again, but crazy lulz.

Merkaba

I can definately picture the engineer yabbering on about comedic engineering subjects at length; like any hardened car mechanic can talk about the difference in quality in between car A'a engine and car B's right off the bat, and then supply a history about why that is why it is. In the TF2 universe there could be some really funny engineering history for him to yack on about.

"So I started considering whether I could just mount Heavy Weapons Guy's gatling gun on a tripod. I take some measurements, and the next thing I know that gorilla is in my face yelling something about "Sasha" and asking me whether I think I can outsmart bullets. What is HIS problem?"

NEO_Phyte

He reminds me of someone I know IRL. Especially at the end.

Mount it on a tripod?

I thought you liked playing engineer? That's what they do, you know. Mount successively bigger guns on tripods.

Lol, ok. I thought you wanted to tripod it as a HWG. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />

No techno geek ever smoked huge cigars and hit things with spanners. The engineer's the guy who <i>uses</i> this stuff, not the guy who <i>makes</i>. Engineer's a mechanic. A bad***, thousand-yard-stare, "I've been down in the flag room alone too long," don't ###### with me mechanic. That's all there is to it.

I agree with almost all of these. I really like the idea of the spy being a crazy Frenchman. I don't totally like your engineer idea and I don't think I wan to hear a voice like Ahnold's to voice the soldier. As for the Pyro, watch the show on Comedy Cenral called "Half Way Home" and base it somewhat off of the pyromaniac from there. I'm thinking of a particular episode when he is high and hehas a light match in his hand which he repeatedly calls beautiful and tries to "pet" it.

Better?

Testament

I'd just like to say I am still completely and utterly in mad love with the art style of TF2.

TychoCelchuuu

I'm sorry, Michael Ironside does not work for the sniper because the sniper is clearly Australian. Crocodile Dundee is the one and only choice here.

Mantrid

The sniper is totally a British or Australian hunter. The game keeper from Jurassic Park springs to mind.

The British haven't had hunters since a few decades after Beowulf was written, man. He's Aussie.
