Meet The Tips: Scout

An analytical look at VALVe's popular Meet The Scout video.

The Meet The Team videos are probably the first things that a prospective TF2 player will watch, and contain information about the game that can help beginning players. This video focuses on these tips in order to make them more clear, with accompanying pictures to further explain some of the concepts. Its also pretty funny.

You should have said at 4:25 that you should always eat dropped Sandviches when low on health.

@oliethefolie Thats a bit more in depth gameplay tips than I was planning on putting into this episode, That would probably be better suited for the scout VS heavy episode I was planning on doing

Was surprised nothing was mentioned at 2:24. As Scout, use the high ground, leap from location to location, enemies rarely expect an attack from above. This is an advantage only a few other classes share, and Scout is the only one who can get up there without doing damage to himself. (Sticky/Rocket jumping) Furthermore, everything after 5:00 was...Disappointing.

@Overlai For your first comment, I skipped some things because I didnt want to pause every couple of seconds for every tip that I could possibly think of.

As for your second question, I believe that the general concensous is that I should stick to humor within the tips, and not go off into the gmod things, or other jokes. And thats fine, I was just trying it out, it didn't work, so no biggie.

cant wait for solder i got an idea of it already tip 1# tell your team that if fighting is to assure you in victory then you must fight! tip 2# sun tzu said that

@mairland200 Meet the soldier will probably be the next meet the tips, but after some how to be good at tf2: scout episodes

[fatjack2b]

epicness, i hope pyro is next!

[Thomi3333]

I think you could´ve said: When a Heavy eats a Sandvich, he´s vulnerable! Plus, when he eats, he´s usually low on health! When he starts eating, run up to him and shoot him full of bullets!
