New TF2 Announcer Sounds - Dec. 7 '09 Update

[kakashisensei42]

tf 2's announcer is the pyro

want proof?

watch meet the pyro

[ThemanonlyknownasTom]

I see the announcer isn't a MLP fan.

[lilacpilgrim13]

But friendship is magic 8|

[irishtrash15]

"It's me or him, and I pay your salary!"

Medic: Sorry Heavy, but schnitzel isn't free *Aims needle gun at heavy."

[mahimahimindy]

how do you get her to sound like that?

[Peenut2k7]

Can you put up a download?

[1moe7]

She is called the administrator. Not the announcer

[eIchristo]

I've actually heard the Announcer complain about friendships today during a mission I was in...Nothing else out of the ordinary happened, but what I did notice was this was going on during a 'Rock The Vote' for Maps.

[ROBLOXains]

How did the doors close up (how?)

[LittleKarkatVantas]

How... How do you make friends on here.

I need to know 8D

[IanEduardoMeneses]

GLaDOS, GO BACK TO APERTURE SCIENCE

[airbendingavatar1]

It would be awesome if someone could make this dialogue sound like GLaDOS!

[drponyslayer]

I reckon that's GLaDOS with voice changing software. She got bored with Atlas and P-Body and now she's going on to the TF2 guys.

[E3kHatena]

@drponyslayer The two characters re played by the same voice actor.

[SuperMario922]

When does she say this in the game. Iv'e never heard her say those lines.

[SuperCsubi]

The annoucer always gives me the creeps. :(

:D

[qwerty4255]

i played on a server where she was like: you cannot hide anything from us mercenaries. you have betrayed my trust. betrayal will not be tolerated. and now you pay the price. all you ever d is disappoint and betray me. cheating, stealing. friend-making!

And then the center of the map opened and a giant death robot tower came out and shot lightning from his mouth. so many scouts died trying to climb up...

[edibleocelot]

so is this ever used in the game? if so, when and why? O_o

[DaxterD1]

When does this happen in the game?! XD I love the way she sneers "Friendships!"

[freakygamerx]

i dont get it why is she saying those things

[LuxorCZ]

Is'nt she GLaDOS?

[crankdatable]

@LuxorCZ yes

[LuxorCZ]

@crankdatable

I know,same voice actor.

But their physics are same.And have similiar lines..... Maybe same guy wrote same lines for GLaDOS and Announcer.

[Shmellington]

When do these play in-game? Like, is there an event that sets them off, something that the player does?

[ghostrade]

@Shmellington it plays in versus saxton hale mode.when you face the announcer

[Exarian]

"Friendship ends in thirty seconds."

I will make it my life's goal to legitimately use this at least once

[DeltaA118]

its like a glados type of line (we all know that ellen mclain is the announcer and glados)

[nintendoplanet]

man....she must have no friends. lolz XP

[killthenerd5]

when does she say any of these things???

[Jtangel27]

Its like giving up the companion cube, because the TF2 Announcer is the same actress who voices GLaDOS.

[Hertz35]

She sounds like that announcer in Red faction 2.

[Limpurtikles]

It's me or him, and I pay your salary! Make your choice!

[shanez1313]

When does she say this?

[ShinyComics]

Remind me of GLaDoS

[VileTerror]

@ShinyComics

Same voice actress, Ellen McLain.

[NICKREAPER316]

the same chick that does GLaDOS's voice does this chick's voice

[fabioproductions]

@ShinyComics making the fact the woman who does both voices is the same person.

[Pokemonster52]

@ShinyComics Maybe because the lady that has the announcer voice also has the voice of gLaDoS? :P

[JakePelka]

How could you BETRAY me?!

[gaaratoast]

When are these heard in game?

[rayshon]

I never EVER hear these in game..

[smpletan]

@rayshon

The war update is over now, so it no longer occurs.

[hubertcomixceo]

@rayshon

That's because these were just for the WAR update.

[vegetaover9000]

you need to use soldier or demoman on the war update

[Gigaspine7]

That's how I WISHED it happened.

However, poor communication kills.

[Juggernaut004]

What the hell...So the classes you play are just hired gunmen working for some evil corporation? D: This just changed everything on the way I play TF2

[Sammichez1]

@Juggernaut004 Two evil corporations, in fact, as they're mercenaries for two people in the same family who want each other dead, as were their predecessors :D

[Danking92nor]

1:12

Friend, I am disappoint.

[Rahman413]

Cheating.Stealing.Friendmaking­.

[Nitronik4ever]

this was the best update :D

I fuckin' love the Eyelander+Sword pair

[TheVideoAnalyst]

According to Saxton Hale in the comic the Announcer's name is Helen...

[GizmoBeam]

@TheVideoAnalyst

Reference to her voice actor Ellen McLain?

[TheVideoAnalyst]

Exactly what I was thinking.

[Redracker6]

If anyone doesn't know, She's talking about BLU soldier's and RED Demo's "betrayment" to her.

[trivaltrek]

I think final tf2 update will be A Co-op where both teams are friends and have to find the announcers hq by fighting her body guards. :O

[KoronofHearts]

@trivaltrek

I was thinking about that too. Like a team 'white' with AI and twice health of regular classes, but they're stupid. And you listen to a Soldier or demo depending on team color.

[lucasnx17]

@trivaltrek it was planned i think but they scrapped it because it would sound like a campaign.

[skellington15]

...did this ever happen in the game?

[Finkster5]

So wait, where does this play?

[kramt203]

what a mean bitch

[S0up3rD0up3r]

friendship ends in 10 seconds!

[XtremegaTes]

So the friend thing, is it because you have a friend that is a demo/solider on the other team when your a demo/solider?

[Aeonsumption]

No its because the Blu Soldier and Red Demo became friends in the (Storyline) of things and she didnt like that

[TemoX56]

@Aeonsumption Where did you get this storyline exactly?

[Aeonsumption]

@TemoX56 Type Administrator Comic in google. Part of the War update

[gmodman999]

@Aeonsumption storyline? TF2 has a storyline?

[LittleKarkatVantas]

@Aeonsumption There's a storyline?! O_o?

[Robotnik722]

It's the War update I think

[JozPL]

No shit, Sherlock!

[Robotnik722]

It was supposed to be a reply to someone else derp

[lamCommandoMan]

@Robotnik722

yes it is

[Robotnik722]

Robotnik722 (6 days ago)

It was supposed to be a reply to someone else derp

[kartoffel13]

i cant wait for the update. hope they will implement an engy update too. it would make sense coz soldiers/demos are the biggest fear to an engy

[kartoffel13]

yeah right. how do you know?

[pkcrossing89]

This is as epic as GlaDOS.

[romantistcaveman]

She's got the same VA as GLaDOS too, if I'm not mistaken. :O

[killtor777]

wonder how much they get payed a day just to respawn

[Nechr0s]

Holy shit, I was playing on cp_Egypt and she announced " A friendship has been detected" and the doors closed around me and the ceiling crushed me.

Scared me a little, but it was fucking Badass.

[lu1zsypher]

were you a soldier?

[Nechr0s]

Yeah, and I believe it was because I had a friend on the other side that was a red demo.

I just fucking love the depth that valve puts in their games/updates.

[lu1zsypher]

yep

bunch of sort of inside "inside jokes"

all the little things that make games like this great

[ganon12]

fucking liar

[Nechr0s]

What?

[Pandal4awl]

@Nechr0s it's when your team caps a point so your spawn location moves

[Nechr0s]

@Pandal4awl Yeah, I've found that out. It's just that the audio cue and the booby-trap went so well together, I thought it was part of the update.

[markointhesky]

@Nechr0s does that realy happen?

[Nechr0s]

@markointhesky No, I explained in an earlier comment that it was just a coincidence that she said that while I got flattened by the ceiling, which normally happens on cp_Egypt when the first point is captured.

[DeltaA118]

@Nechr0s how did you get that to happen

[lu1zsypher]

i dont get it

why is she talkng about freindships?

[LosKeshusos]

go to official team fortress site and read comic about this

[MyCommentsAreFact]

Demo is so much cooler. D:

[tate9000]

It's me or him, and I pay your salery!

[lowelek3]

salary

[NunoGavazzi]

its the Demon vs Soldier update i just seen it know on my tf2

[andywallace56]

soldier v demo war has begun gentlemen - may the best class win :o)

[cineman3d]

engineer

/watch?v=c59xqafMuTE

[MorioKun1]

She sounds more angry :(

Friendship ends in 30 secs.

[stuvucsiz]

the scout has got the sniper's SMG...

[Azuminnz]

Naaah, these are the beta models of the characters. The scout originally had a nail gun, but it got removed during the beta and replaced. Its looks like the SMG :D

[pm689]

Go damn Soldierssssssssssssssss

[genesis557]

One of the things posted on the website said:

friendship ends in one day

[FarenStormbull]

i dont have any friends

[MrSquidon]

Final update = Red & Blue VS. Announcer

[EEEdoman]

Look on TF2 blog again. No new gamemode, but new maps acheivements and new weps. And a seventh weapon for ONLY 1 of the two classes. O_o NUUUU! Also you hear these noises if certain things happen in tf2 lol...

[OceanicCamels]

Dude, what the fuck. This is gonna be one fucked-up gamemode.

[Mdude667]

Evidence

1. New audio files about friendship.

2. Comic revealed about BLU Soldier and RED Demoman becoming friends.

3. End of comc has Administrator talking about custom-ordering new weapons from Saxton Hale and a "Friendly Competition" For said Soldier And Demoman.

3. Last update was Sniper Vs Spy update.

4. Gabe Newell has recently twittered of a new class update for christmas.

Verdict- Soldier Vs Demoman update this Christmas.

We had it coming all along......

[kefta4ever101]

Blue soldier and red demoman are friends now.

[Ricesteamer]

hahaha friendship ends in 30 seconds

[FreezingStorm]

Spy: "i really never was your friend"

[Mdude667]

well as they say, new audio files means new groundbreaking gamemode, and new groundbreaking gamemode means new class update( whick Gabe Newell recently twittered that there will be a new class update via christmas) and new class update means newq glitches, and new glitches means new updates, and more new updates means new audio files and new audio files means......

[thedza13]

cool story, administrator

[Koolkitties]

This is scary.

[TheJoebucks]

FRIENDSHIP

HUH? FRIENDSHIP?

[SvenXIIIfromSteam]

What does it smell like?

[Puggwarrior]

SQUEEE! 8D NEW UPDATE

[kartoffel13]

yesterday i heard this one of these sounds while i was playing soldier. i didnt know what it was. but im looking forward to the update

[yony120]

I see...

[MO77H3W]

how do you get these sounds?

[xStizzy]

So, I guess we're gonna get a new class update now, huh? That's how I understood the comic, at least..

[Theoverseer95]

It's me or him, and I pay your salary! Make your choice.

[ssupermario92]

...now that she mentions it...i hate friends

[TheYeIIowDucK]

FEINDSHIP ENDS IN 30 SECONDS

[MarkVega]

So it's an 'event' and more to look out for. That's pretty awesome then, keeps the game fresh.

More announcer is gud :D

[Freecell82]

Is this actually showing up in game, or is it just some files that have been discovered in the game directory?

[IBringDoom]

play soldier/demoman a lot, you'll hear these all the time. you hear these at complete random but they happen pretty often.

[sheogorath19]

when do u hear this

[IBringDoom]

play soldier/demoman a lot, you'll hear these all the time. you hear these at complete random but they happen pretty often

[MarkVega]

Maybe the game scans if you are Friends with someone on the oppossing team via Steam Account?

Would make sense.

[MarcelGERMAN]

Robin already said, it has nothing to do with Steam friends. And she only says this if you play Demoman or Soldier and they both are friends.

[yony120]

Anyone noticed the Scout is holding the Sniper's submachine gun?

[diehard12345678]

Wow some of you guys must be dumb -,- This is just going to be an normal game mode. No story mode or co-op.

'

You will hear these sounds just before the spawn gates open . For example. Instead of hearing: Mission begins in 10 seconds, you'll hear. Friendship ends in 10 seconds. the game mode is propably not the Hunter game mode. If you guys read the Tf2 blog, you will see that the Demo and the Soldier became 'Friends'. That why this'll be a normal game mode and Demo/Soldier Update

[MarcelGERMAN]

Nope, read the comic. They are ordering new weapons from Miss Hale. Dont forget, Demo and Soldier ARE FRIENDS! And the Announcer want to end this, so she's ordering new weapons for the Engineer.

[MarcelGERMAN]

*Mister

[HuggiNuggiz]

Dude, I think you'r quite right. But i think that it'll be ''Engineer VS Demoman''. Because the Engineer kills the Soldier and the Demoman goes for revenge. That would also explain the ''The friendship ends tommorow thing''.

[Nitronik4ever]

i didn't see that damned demo/soldier friendship comic! where the hell is this!

[idjakme]

teamfortress. com/war/administrator/

[FlippieX]

Deej, she shocked me, that sound is very loud. what is wrong with the old taunts?

[TheTrueSelenka]

I think that all says a boy

[MathariLoves]

Sounds are just amazing

[Willianatior]

1) How do I open these files? Where in my directory can I find them?

2) Announcer turns out to be a GLaDOS like character.

3) Story mode co op.

[Sonnekalb]

1)GCF Scape

2) What.

3) No.

[Willianatior]

1) Thanks!

2) You know, GLaDOS was just a friendly voice telling you what to do and turns out to be a psycho bitch trying to kill ya.

3) I'm just saying. Think of the possibilities. I know it would completely ruin the whole jist of it being a multiplayer vs shit but it would still be pretty... rad

[Sonnekalb]

Yea, I know who GLaDOS is.

But no, A story co-op would be amazing but it won't happen, there's just no way.

[duckmanx88]

new game mode, new demo/soldier updates. =)

[urclremi]

WOW.poor demo and soldier.

[PalatableNacho]

New game mode?

[soulhunter4444]

Soldier/Demo dual update!

[jj16802]

Can't wait the the Soldier update SOLDIER FTW

[SergeiEisenstein]

YOU MUST DIE!

[youraftermyrobotbee]

... Whatever this is, it's going to be so fucking good. :D

[kaihimura]

DEMOMAN AND SOLDIER UPDATE WOOT

[DDSproductions08]

what makes her say this?

[madeoin]

everyone check the tf2 blog!

[1upD]

When does she say this?

[Spatan95]

FRIENDSHIP ENDS IN 10 SECONDS

[OniLink10]

It's something about the Demoman and Soldier, someone decompiled the Server DLL and found a new function that plays these 10% of the time when something is done as Demo/Soldier.

[Forlorn79]

Goodness, what's the big deal about friendships? Hopefully they release something that makes these make sense.

[combly7]

they made comics on the tf2 website

[madeoin]

check the blog

[Westy543]

Demoman and Soldier are being removed from the game, they're being fired.

[thundercat287]

friendship ends in 10 seconds...

why does scout have smg?

[Westy543]

It's from the beta, he used to have a nailgun / SMG. Demoman has his old multibomb too.

[mattz456]

your a fucking idiot kid

[routhier80]

it was an old image of the characters. that smg was a nailgun that was originally planned to be released with the game, but it was scrapped and the scattergun was created instead.

[Y0uTuben]

soldier and demoman can no longer be friends...

[GustavoMorph22]

I heard some of these sounds in-game, and I was like "WTF?"

Then today this comic merges... Valve, you know how to get us scared.

[XxElMartoxX]

I DONT GET IT WHAT IS THIS FROM A NEW UPDATE A NEW SINGLEPLAYER MODE DONT GET ITY AND WHAT NOW YOU CAN PLAY AS THE ANNOUNCER?? xD

[CountessRae]

GLaDOS vibe, GLaDOS VIBE.

[TORSTF]

GlaDOS actress, GlaDOS ACTRESS.

[HeliumZombie]

Check out the new blog update on the TF2 website :O

[stevoisiak]

Valve just made a post about this on their site.

It seems the Blu solder and Red demoman have formed a friendship.

[MrPheasant69]

mother fucker i no you aint talkin to me

[Darkmoone1]

SUCESS!!!
