Team Fortress 2. Scout tips at 2Fort

[edcellwarrior]

Video quality was bad, even on my iPod, but it's a good video with some nice tips

[Araganor]

Not the best gameplay, but it does get the point across.

[GHiryu]

2007...

[TrickyTracki]

i hate it to break it to you, but you suck

you gotta jump more while fighting, doesnt matter where you are/what weapon you use: The main goal of a scout is not to get hit! It doesn't matter if you hit them, unless they can't get you!

[lookatdadamage94]

you make this look easy

[FALLOUTMADLAD]

WMG=willy munching gays

[cmbdragon666]

scout is good for fast ownage, spy is good for sneaky like ownage, soilder is good for destructive ownage, demo. is almost like soilder but gets alot of things done quicker ownage, heavy is good for mega killing ownage, medic is good for skillfully helping ownage, pyro is good for saying fuck you to spy ownage, and I think that's all to know about ownage in TF2......... oh, also, sniper good for camping at one place ownage, and engi. good for camping at base ownage times 50!

[PwnaHacker]

Only use the bat if they're not usig the smg, nor the Tribleman's Shiv, so be careful, and use the Force- a- Nature when they're close then,

[donaldlolwut]

Finally, someone else who understands what Scout was made for. He was made to scout around and report on things l;ike spies, snipers and Medic buddies like pyro, soldier, or heavy +medic. NOT run around shooting people. Scouts weapons are for confusion and a last stand option.

[Cardmagic222]

thank you :D

[themrlegoman1000]

if enemy retrats out of your bat`s range use pistol or scattergun,force a nature

[viliussmproductions]

scout was 200 % fast and now 133% am i right? (just asking)

[Weirdnessization]

@viliussmproductions yeah its something like that

[0incorporeal]

Great vid! Really amazing batting skills on those snipers. I had no idea those gaps would be jumpable either.

[pushpoppushpop]

whos we huh n00b

[TheFlyingHat]

lol 2fort pubs

[IGNMadMasher]

We own scouts like you on servers.

[bassdass]

This video is almost two years old. You seem to have forgotten that skill is something that comes with time. Ergo: I am a different scout now. Please see my other videos.

So I doubt what you just said.

[AAPNL12]

scout is awesome, i think you also like sandman if you still play.

[ShowToddSomeLove]

@bassdass Yes, and the new items make the scout's job easier, as well. Bonk saves you from Sentry damage.

[DarkestAB1]

your comment : We own scouts like you on servers.

My reply : who gives a shit?

[Kremsly]

WMG SAPPING MAH SOUND!

[LemonsRgo]

those snipers are noobs.

[WHITeLVIS]

those "snipers" are aither newbies or noobs...

[releas3]

Running acroos the middle roof will get you easily sniped if the other team has an decent sniper

[MichaelJackson787]

same goes for me roxo444 !!

[qjwilliam]

you could have showed us how to deal with other classes except for the obvious snipers and soldier that u killed

[HumbertoLaker]

how we do the animations, taunt and stuff?

[JRVL007]

look at options and then search for the taunt button and press it.

[snibbtydibity]

press x

[Azn096]

For some reason I can't make the jump from the roof of the bridge to the other base without falling and taking the front door (shot by 2 sentries at least). Am I supposed to crouch after the double jump or something?

[JRVL007]

No just keep practising , try to double jump a bit later and you can make it.

[GnudgeModerator]

You're falling off the bridge, then double jumping. Just jump earlier and you won't fuck up.

[Stickstyler]

if u have the force-of-nature u can shoot backwars to b\get u there or just double jump betta hehe

[TomSpeed97]

Yeah, if only FaN was good for anything else.

[kuwaimaha]

iprefer killing soldiers bullets are slow so you can dodge them plus you can always count on them killing themselves if you foolishly get to close :D.

[XcXdualchamp50]

if the sentry was there i woulda used BONK! =]

[roxo444]

Really good!Can be very useful for beginners like me and scout is my favorite class.

[Guynumber7]

what the fuck IS WMGS PROBLEM THIS IS A FUCKING VALVE VIDEO GAME. the guy probably bought the damn track too.

[TopHatIndustries09]

fucking WMG

[Murcow]

It's always a chance that you'll have to take with running straight up to snipers, but I like the bat

[zealotguy]

Personally, when I run into the intel room, I always check my corners. Also, I listen carefully for the beeping of a sentry and the droning sound of a dispenser.

[babychiefie]

how did make the vid

[angryjoy]

Love 2fort map. Best map for newcomers to get use to T2 play mechanics imo

[cheesebuyer]

i thought he was pretty good actually

[BatistaForeverRulez]

2fort is the best map.

[Brian12327]

wow you suck

[obsidanse]

OMG!? What is it with competitive online gaming??

Stop putting everyone down!

And my folk wonder why i've stopped playing multi and now sticking to stuff like Fallout 3

[Murcow]

the same thing almost happened to me, but then i realized that some online games are nicer than others

[iamsmert123]

Look at the date posted.

[AeternumBellum]

No sents in intel, 3 snipers, a solly that can't take on a scout.

Couldn't be hard to beat that red team.

Also, should have explained batting down heavies from their heads :P

[Mada234boyroblox]

server of noobs

[darthnoob8472]

+1

the snipers could have easly shot you to death

[AzureHalfbreed]

another fun thing to do, or what I like to do, sometimes i miss the jump off of the bridge onto their base. and if there isn't a sentry. I'll walk in through the front, go up the stairs and to the deck. those snipers aren't expecting a scout to come up that way and kill you. The last one I got had killed a team mate of mine and started taunting. I scattergunned his head twice then stole their intel.

[Angerfist1211]

you are pro :D

[Fasterthanamaster]

pretty good, i'm going to make a video about tips for using the force-a-nature, i found some pretty fun triple jumps on 2fort!

[MariosGuy]

what are you talking about dude the bat owns ....unless you suck then use the scattergun only

[deers482]

That team had 3 snipers at once on 2fort?

where they trying to lose?

[JordyDaBom13]

can you help me with the game ingame plzplz add me fubarjunior or say me whats your plspls help!!

[cloud314231]

"nice scope im sure u got a great view of me killing you" - scout

[Bhakthavachalam]

Scouts can also be used to destroy Engineer's buidlings (besides Sentries, those are for Spies and Demos) since they can be so far into enemy territory they can disrupt their infrastructure.

[HereWeGoRavens95]

What did you use to record this? Plz respond.

[bassdass]

Fraps

[ccsecond]

Ive just started using fraps full version and get no audio on same game I got windows xp any thoughts?

[300retards]

Make sure you have the record audio option selected :)

[ccsecond]

Thanks I had that done, I think my problem lies somewhere around my speakers, they plug in USB and/or something with my mic

[Joigem]

when you were going to "bat flank" that soldier, i saw youre problem, and you solved it, but you could just w8 for him to shoot 4 rockets, at the fourth rocket, bonk him as hell, but it is risky, if he reloads a little too fast and shoot back at you, you better hope he miss you!

[44isanormalusername]

Actually, the best class for killing spys is the pyro.

[knate08]

He didn't say Scout was the best at killing spies, he said the Scout was useful for it.

Since the Scout is the fastest class, he can spy check more players than the others, at least by running into them.

[amulet444]

yes but spyes cant catch up with scouts so they can easy kill spys too

[XNinjaCrumpetX]

press G to taunt

[TOEPIKAR]

i know that now!

[il4ack]

its gonna be alot more fun bat flanking when the new scout pack comes out (theres gonna be a bat that you can stun ppl with)

[amulet444]

no becuz no double jump makes it harder to avoid get shot

[captiandrek]

wow that intel capture was cool, that sentry almost did you in ha!

[SoFrosts]

If the snipers would use their machete they would most likely kill the scout in a melee fight.

[lil0egy0kid]

how do you jump like that on the roof of the bridge?

[raphe9]

You use second jump that only scout can do =)

[ARom101]

:45sec is awesome

[Lizrdy]

nice vid for beginners

[ZloyPekar]

Ты играешь как монашка!!!

[kazlara]

Good video man. I'm a scout player myself and already knew all this though but you're pretty good.

[JesusTheGardener]

ya know if you kill a heavy with a bat, the scout says "Beat it, fatty!"

[rasui80]

"Eat it, fatty." :)

[XxXPIESXxX]

Haha, I enjoyed the vid. Very well done. 5/5.

[SenseiHollow]

Good but my advice is to avoid the Bridge like the plague. Double Jump onto the roof on the way in and then either Roof it on the way back or double into the water and through your own pipes.

[pezza2k8pezza]

lol you owned the snipers personally im good with most classes but i rule with the heavy

[ffmcracdcftw]

scouts aren't really a goo d name for them, spies are better to tell you what the other team has l

[BC13MuthaFxcka]

and what should the spy be called?

MISTAH CLOAK MAN?

[TheOriginalSourBanan]

dooble jump rarely works for me i can get on the bridge not of onto the ledge tho

why

even when i jump at the very end it like because of my ping it rgisters to late dk

but it gay plus some dooble jumps are higher then other and on some server io can do the double jump shit and on iothers i cant

[Ukurse]

It doesn't work very often with me ethier, I know I must be doing something wrong but I can't figure what it is that is wrong.

[flectz]

it doesnt work cuz u suck

[fisss306]

my tips are to double jump right into the water from the roof go through the tunnel to get aroung them then go wild with the shotgun hope this helps =P

[stevengood12]

my tip is to be fast and slick for instince the bat is the best retreding wepon when geting rid of defence enemys

[808candyman]

you make it look almost too easy!

[olesto]

the whos playing is a fps-noob :) keeps aiming at the ground. No one jumps out of the ground in tf2

[bassdass]

Haha :D

[Falkning]

snipers r like, "wtf? OH SHIT!"

[badgerman500]

cool video :) scouts rule, especially when you are it xD

[bloodpalidin]

thats awsome. isnt their health and ammo in the intell areaand why didnt you get some?-if their wansnt any in that server then nvm :)

[sumdudeudontno]

This is b4 The pyro update, after the pyro update yes, there is health and Ammo Packages down there

[WoWkevinWoW]

2Fort... Official map :/

[Roxsh5]

Lots of people are speaking about how to deal with SGs. Two things that work for me are

1) Check the SG angle -- on occasion you can get around a corner before it kills you. But also keep in mind the knock back effect. Another important factor for killing a lvl 3 sg is to avoid the initial rocket blast.

2) Fellow spys are your best friend. If they spam the gun you are fast enough to get by it before it becomes active again, but you need at least 1 intelligent cooperative spy..

[snnakke]

no is very hard Scout in 2fort...

[EvanYogus]

no.

[n4tti1c3]

Awesome thanks for this video man!!!!

[ppplllooo11]

wow, thank you very much for this video.

our team wins every time =}

[killerfocker]

lol

[Fireandicefilms]

For the guys having trouble double jumping tot he enemies base... you'll find ur not even jumping off the edge (since scouts run so fast) your actually using your double jump after you've fallen off, so it makes it look like a normal jump.

Try jumping BEFORE the bridge ends. Not when it ends. Hope it helps....

0wned

[Roxsh5]

Since the medic update I've had a lot more trouble with them due to the health return gun. Any tips on how to deal with this when I can't sneak up on them ?

[puppetmassster]

The Synge gun has a very short range and his bullets are effected by gravity. if you keep your distance and attack with your pistol, the medic wont be able to touch you.

Your other option is to wait for him to start healing someone and then attack when he and his patient aren't looking.

[BroodjeGezond]

I think the best way is to equip your bat and run towards them in an unsuspected way and then bat the shit out of 'm. They will start to panic and will start to shoot everywhere just trying to hit you.

Works for me though ^^

Cheers BG.

[drexelkiller74]

for some reason when i jump on the top of the bridge and when i am jumping to the enemys sniping area i cant double jump can you tell me if i am double jumping wrong

[CodyG1232]

That happens to me too! I used to do it easy, now I can't do it anymore.

[minimcbeef]

You need to remind people of the pistol and that doublejumping is a useful tool in combat. Other than that, nice video. It should help new players.

[Bibouba2]

Favorite class, with some skill and luck u can handle almost every other class

[Bhakthavachalam]

2:44, lol the Demoman didn't notice you

2:45-2:48, holy crap, talk about a major offensive...

[DanbleM]

you were lucky that the engy wasn't smart becuase all good engineers would put it in the little doorway nezt to spawn leading to court yard of otherwised you would have died

[Bhakthavachalam]

I have an even better spot, but it involves tanking or camping your sentry with a dispenser at your back...

[flewju]

The problem with your spot is that it's very easy for the enemy to edge from under the stairs and kill it, and it's one of the easiest spots for a demoman to kill it.

[Lorsk8]

I not only kill spies, snipers and medics, i also kill heavy pyros... You can handle all classes if youre good @ it

[arachlyco]

thats wrong scouts capture the intel

[seattlemusicseen]

BONK!

scouts ftw

[zer0kewl]

here's a tip from me pickup that health.

and jump the same way back as did before.

if you met a sniper there it go down with 1 crit if your lucky otherwise 2 full damage shots ;>

oh also basicly if your a good flanker to shoot 3 players all in a row without a reload or switch with scattergun ;> 2 shots per player ;p

[RealMcfool]

This was before a patch.

At the time he was playing this, he wouldn't have been near any health. The half health pickup downstairs hadn't been there yet.

[jcoolboy]

nice vid. how are you able to double jump so effectively? i use scout all the time but whenever i try to make the jump from the bridge rooftop to the enemy battlements it seems like the second jump just doesnt happen... any tips?

[bassdass]

That's because you are jumping into an invisible wall, just learn where the invisible walls borders are and avoid them.

[lowlvltwink]

u have to move when u double jump u cant jsut do a straight double jump u have to do it at and angle

[marxs36]

Yea thats what I thought was happening too. But were is it?

[kirchmaster]

exact same tactics i use, they work perfectly..i love owning snipers with the bat because they are always zoomed in to power up there gun. i think scout is the best class

[cpd8508]

nice job dude! BONK!

[aledrayth]

Nice, What video capture programme did you use? Ive used so many and yet while trying to record as Scout my frame just dips so low i cant even see what im doing.

[bassdass]

First i recorded a demo in-game. Then simply used fraps..

[808candyman]

very good common sense and tips on the capture scene, but those snipers are retards!

[survivalicious]

n00b scout/demo here, never used the spiral for an escape instead of the hayroom and then the decks.

nice one bruv

[SolarVampire]

If a sniper hasn't spotted you, don't get next to them and bat them. Rather, what you want to do is jump onto their head, and bats at them from there. It works sooo much better.

[undrtakr900]

cool video 5 stars

[blindsfell]

Great video man, scout for life.

[miggz06]

telephone, your a deuche. STFU. I t was a great vid.

[telephonepole38]

I'd tear into you about this video for how crappy it is but I see it was added in December of '07. So it's not crappy, just way outdated.

You left out several critical scout jumps that allow you to get from the ground level of the bridge up into the sniper decks without going through the base. You left out all the options that you have to stand on to flank people outside. You left out jumping in and out of the bridge to decieve people. You used the bat too much. Its obvious they were noobs.

[SlivQ93]

great job..

[havemercybabe]

another tip, when ur running across the roof of the bridge, fire non-stop with the pistol at snipers. hitting them ruins their aim, and the pistol is alot more effective at this distance. as soon as you jump onto the battlements, whip out the scattergun and destroy the snipers in 2 quick shots.

[havemercybabe]

scout is my favourite class, next to spy. just on using the bat: its really meant for when ur scattergun runs out of ammo. at close range, the scattergun will do up to 5 times the dmg of a bat. also, on 2fort scout is REALLY effective at taking out sentries that have been left alone by their engy's. by peeking around a corner u can avoid being detected by the SG and destroy is in a matter of seconds with ur pistol. seriously, 2 clips is usually all it takes to destory a lvl 3 sentry

[Drillsback]

The music made this both educational AND enjoyable.

[c3n1x]

When you're going into the enemy intel room, you really need to strafe peek corners a lot more than you did incase of sentry guns. I also noticed that the snipers didn't weapon switch to their knife (knife > bat), or manage to hit you above the bridge which makes me think the replay is rigged to show your tips (or attempt to showoff). You also should've explained to people that you have to double duck-jump to fly across the mid like that and strafing with it can help even more.

[c3n1x]

If you rated this comment as -1, you're truly hurtin. So sorry for calling you on the truth nub.

[SolidFlame1]

wow im now chooseing the scout now thanks for the tips

[EyesTheDevil]

Another tip: Soldiers are a bother, try to stay in the air and go crazy dodging the rockets, if you stay in the air you can avoid splash damage, but when you are in a small environment like a base, those are restricted so keep your distance and fire some rounds from your pistol if you are

a bit far from him.

[iNfx1]

i just stay as far away from soldiers as i can in general, but my tip is to stay back and force them to use their shotgun, the rocket launcher is too useless@long range.

[havemercybabe]

LOL! while the rockets are less effective at long range, the shotgun is an absolute waste of time. no soldier in his right mind would make that switch. the shotty is meant for finishing off opponents when u dont have time to reload rockets.

[iNfx1]

no, rockets are "less effective" at long range, they are completely useless.

dont underestimate the power of the tf2 shotguns, they are actually fairly powerful, same for pistols.

[EyesTheDevil]

-_- You really use the bat too much.

[pwnypranksbro]

thanks dude. im a scout all the time. this helped my gamplay a lot. thanks again .

[gamer2468]

its awsome, tincy bit pixelated but awsome :D

[Jackabot147]

Thanks for help on my fav class. This really helps! 5/5

[levykid]

I don't mean to criticize, but if you can't figure those tips out, you're some kind of retarded. Its a good newbie training video though.

[c3n1x]

Rofl I so agree.

[BugStyleXX]

On the intel run...I have to quote the Scout.

"Wave goodbye to your secert crap, dumbass!"

[Kazzii]

Thanks for this video, it's mega helpful!

[michaeltsui2005]

i usually use scattergun when u perform the so-called bat flank, i will jux reach the same range towards the enemy but use scattergun to blast him instead. (normally one close blast and a few pistol rounds can kill a soldier)

[jimbob150555]

Really good vid, im really shit at fortress, this could help :)

5 stars winging its way to you !!

[THEartixt16]

great vid.

[killermoose99]

Also there is a funnier way to take down spies in that room (1:02) its hard to explain but ill take a shot at it.there is a lil ledge on the outside of that room you can walk on it so if someone does hide in there there dead pretty much backtab them through the window, I'v done it as a sniper with my machetee (Darn spies)

[dreamsofmishra]

Sometimes its pretty amusing in 2fort when its 2-2 score, and the other team is on the offensive. Once it had 40 seconds left, and when I died I changed to scout class, and took that same path, grabbed the intel, crossed the bridge roof and capped it during overtime. some people just dont know the usefulness of sentry guns. XD

[Sn1perI0I]

For some reason I can jump to the red base from the bridge on blu team but when I'm on red team I can't jump from the bridge to blu base.

Any reasons for this?

Xbox live gamer tag: Sn1per101

[killermoose99]

No real reasons but i'v had that problem to...  gamertag:Killermoose44 (LOL) and if i was that sniper u wouldnt make it across that bride(trust me)

[GLaDOSv2]

nice video, it helped thx

[eXX0]

Actually, you SHOULD fire at the snipers, because it messes up their aim.

[bassdass]

I always do.

[Arkanegel153]

Nice

[coddlebug]

just wondering, whats better at point blank range, the bat or the scattergun?

[bassdass]

Scattergun of course.. The bat is just a funny public weapon, to pwn the newbs.

[randomjoe333333]

bats good for batting a slow heavy just for humilation

[bassdass]

Make sure he's low on health from before. Or else you'll pay! Think you need something like 5-7 battings to take down a full health heavy, considered they are all non crits..

[randomjoe333333]

yer true but his fat and slow usually if no medics around just jump around his head swinging the bat its pretty easy just watch evildaedelus's vid

[bassdass]

It's a risk to take, And you feel good after succeeding. I have seen evildaedalus's vid, but if that heavy you are batting is decent at aiming, you are going down. but if he's under average, you stand a good chance at totally humiliating him. But if you are serious about playing like me *proud*. You would never attempt these things in a real match, where the skill level ais miles ahead from a random pub server.

[randomjoe333333]

ahh yer true but scouts are fast so confusion plays a factor

[TheScout1234]

lol i managed take 1 out when i had a medic on it and i took down heavy b4 the medic :P just using bat

[risgrestarsfx]

this just wastes time, but im gonna tell you anyways =P

you ran up and batted the snipers to death, that was awesome XD BUT if they dont see you go over (idk, if you go into their base the long way or something) get jump on top of em and bat em to the ground =D
