Now that certainly isn't constructive, concing is actually really fun.

Here is a quick tutorial for you to try in TFC; Load up as scout go to the midfield (open area usually in middle of the map), press and HOLD 'g' on the keyboard a series of beeps will be heard on the third beep you need to be going forwards and actually be in the air crouched. The beeps are at 1 second intervals.

So run forwards press and hold 'g' wait about 2.5 seconds then jump and crouch keeping forward pressed the conc should go off when you are at the peak jump height while crouched and propel you a significant distance. The speed which you are going forwards determines the length of the arc in the air, the faster the longer but less tall the arc, the slower the taller but shorter the arc.

own3r please, I can't take it anymore. You're talking to a brick wall, seriously.

Yeah "TeamFortress2" is a troll... ignored him

GeoKill-----> · 06-04-2007, 07:11 PM

Well right now I played more FF than TF2

So, let's talk about how AWESOME Fortress Forever will be.

Ihmhi · 06-04-2007, 07:18 PM

It will be so great that we will have grenades and can fly around the map!

Poor Team Fortress 2. )':

paranoidkirb · 06-04-2007, 07:20 PM

The boost from the Flamethrower looks pretty intense too.
And the CTF maps.

Excellent video, kids!

I KNEW I RECOGNIZED THAT VIDEO!! Keg did a great job on that video, and I remember making several parts of that video. By the way, 180 concs are very possible, and you saw it with DuckofHealing pulling off some amazing concs in the video. Keg did a lot of the soldier work, and I mainly died a lot. That was a fun vid to make, and it does illustrate what TFC is all about.

well what i said i think is , i have never seen anybody do it... not that concing back to your own base is something that is important really , and im never a flying medic so i really couldnt say it was possible

GhOsT · 06-04-2007, 07:47 PM

It's useful in certain situations. Like that conc Rizzo is famous for on openfire...

barronofhellion · 06-04-2007, 07:59 PM

not to mention when i was typing that , it was 1 am and i was totally drunk... i was more upset that the video was more about movement and less about actually game footage

Etzell · 06-04-2007, 08:04 PM

But the movement is part of the game, everything had some form of usefullness, there wasn't a single move (to my knowledge) that is worthless in a game of TFC. (180s are useful for grabbing flags and getting out, like in Openfire.)

Anshinritsumai · 06-04-2007, 08:16 PM

I spy kickass-ery.

StrickNine · 06-04-2007, 08:40 PM

For the people who believe that the concing looks overpowered. I think that these maps are made on a larger scale than TFC, so that might have something to do with it.

GhOsT · 06-04-2007, 08:42 PM

Not really. The maps feel roughly the same.

PHISH · 06-04-2007, 08:43 PM

I think there needed to be one video just to show what is possible movement wise, since a lot of people hadn't seen it. Only 1 video was really required to satisfy the concerns of some players. Showing actual gameplay is something we can focus on from here to release.

Dospac · 06-04-2007, 09:00 PM

It's also interesting to point out that, while this stuff is featured in FF, many people who played TFC are complaining now about how much more you can move in FF etc. These elements are roughly the same in TFC and FF.. Shows ya how good a job TFC did of explaining the game to players and making the community driven stuff(videos etc) accessible to the random TFCer..

All the effort put into making the great TFC vids was sorta wasted because Valve didn't capitalize on the fact that people had done that stuff imo.. Free advertising etc.

If any of you see comments to the effect of "oh man if FF is already like this before it's out how do we even stand a chance this game will suck" please kindly inform them of a few things.

1. This shit ain't exactly easy or commonplace.
2. You'll be able to learn how to do it.
3. When I first got into FF I could barely bhop.
