The biggest thing is just shooting ahead of time and predicting were there gonna run...if u think there gonna run into a certain spot fire 1-2 rockets in that spot ... if they don't ....u still got 2 rockets...witch should still do the trick
Nice tutorial, but I would've liked to see some info on how to wreak havoc with the shovel. Like how to blast an enemy into the air and beat him with the shovel as he lands. But other than that, great tutorial! I have a good feeling the BLU team is gonna start hurtin' bad when I pull out my Rockets >:)
I appreciate the effort put into it, but the guide is made for pub playing - the guide itself was well done, what IS dissapointing is the amount of basic guides like this - i've only seen one comp. play guide that wasn't worthless and was actually "advanced" - play a weel class. really good guide, and from a decent soldier, at last. Defo recommend it for people who are bored of guides like this.
"If God had wanted you to LIVE he would not have created ME!"
Nice shootin' Tex! With my internet, I can't play any class worth shit, but I currently do best with the Soldier. I did NOT know that crouching while rocket jumping caused you to jump higher. I'll remember that in the near future.
A favorite tactic of mine concerning snipers is that the ones I usually play against freak out a bit when they see a rocket coming and hide if a spot is available. So I ((see next comment))
nice dude, I played as a soldier a bit earlier and wanted to see how you're *supposed* to do it. I was a bit off, but still pretty much owned. got 3 kills with a single crit rocket =) and want to say that if you're a medic, its a good idea to uber good soldiers because they will get a lot of kills and you will get a lot of kill assists. also I play on Xbox 360 so the 40 rockets didn't seem weird at all
this helped first time i played tf2 at my friends house i could only play sniper but with rocket jumping nd stuff i got my 2nd most kills of soldier, but im still better with sniper
how did the update change that. p.s. should i buy this game for the pc? it looks sick. i played it for the 360 and it was fun but there are no updates and i heard its not as fun as the pc version.
Kind of annoying how you paused the video every other second to tell us something. We can can pause the video if we wanted to do that, thank you very much.
sweet thx...I'm new at TF2...I still need to get osme pixel thing to actualy play it...thx for telling me how to rocket jump correctly! lol ctrl to duk
You forgot about "juggling" enemies with rockets. Hit enemies with a rocket to the feet, then another in mid air. They can't dodge when they're flying.
Fuck updates! I bet we all could have lived without the 40 to 16 ammo update. And the new weapons: Wait till they all are ready, then release the update.
Believe me. the guides are kickass awesome, but they're all but guides. unless you know how to apply it with hands, eyes, and fingers, it wont be easy.
umm... demo is about the same.. but has the range problam.. demo isnt easy to "master" too. what about scouts? if u miss a shot, with ur low hp u might die =/..
i agree its rly hard class to "master" but allmost every class needs practice ...
i've seen loads of videos like this which are muted because they used music which breached copyrights and i think its fucking stupid since its promoting the music e.g. if i hear a good song on youtube from a random vid even if i hated the vid i might buy that music on my MP3 or dl to my comp! who agrees with me?

I completely agree, since so many of the bands I have on my iTunes didn't make their debuts until I saw a video with a song in it. This is a stupid policy that I hope gets reversed, or something big is going to happen. Til then, download more illegal music.
trust me, it's much easier to rocket jump at this level on the PC version. You just whip your mouse quickly and fire. In the 360, you have to hold down your control stick for a while...
Good, didn't really learned anything I didn't already know but I feel somewhat.. Better now. Thanks! It was killer on my eyes and hopefully you can get the music and such in just right, work on transitions, etc.
the best part about the soldier is tht he got a shotgun,not just explosives like the demoman,i hate the demoman just explosives,not a pistol or anithing else,scout is good,spy is hard,heavy if u have time and medic i never play tht,snipe :P LOVE IT
Also, I LOVE how you stopped the video to point out that you shot him in the foot. XD
