Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



During my preview of the new Team Fortress 2 map, gametype and Medic weapons, Valve showed off the new "Meet the Scout" video. Before watching this video, I always thought of the Scout as the weakest member of Team Fortress. Now, I'm totally afraid of him. Seriously, don't bonk with the Scout.

"Meet the Scout" is the fifth in the Meet the Team Fortress 2 soldier series. It started off with the Heavy Weapons guy and his love of his giant gun. Then the Soldier came around and showed us he liked to collect heads. The Engineer showed of his musical skills after that. And then we were left off with the alcoholic Demoman.

More Meet the episodes are planned until all of the soldiers in Team Fortress 2 are showcased. What did you think of the latest "Meet the"?

[Thanks, timdabrat!]

These are the best things the internets ever made. Not the best of the four, better than the demo, but not as good as the Soldier or Heavy. AND JESUS CHRIST HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO MACHINIMA.

@Prince

The probablm is that its not machinima. Its in studio, so they can't just manipulate the models and make a video out of it.

I felt really bad for the Heavy, strangely enough. Watching his face as he reached for that sandwich was heart-wrenching.

HAH! YES! The Scout is my favorite class. I just love running around messing up people's faces with the bat (with record of 74 bat kills in one day). This video totally reminds me of how I play. I love it.

Team Fortress vs. DC Universe

Of course this idea can only be possible if all the guns are taken out. Do you see Superman or Batman taking out guns and blowing off peoples heads?

HA! It said, "Copyright LOLOLOL" at the "Meet the Scout" Logo.

"Grass grows, birds fly, sun shines and brotha... I hurt people!" It was funny as shit when he was screaming with the Heavy. This is definitely the funniest one.

"The youngest of eight boys from the south side of Boston, the Scout learned early how to problem solve with his fists. With seven older brothers on his side, fights tended to end before the runt of the litter could maneuver into punching distance, so the Scout trained himself to run. He ran everywhere, all the time, until he could beat his pack of mad dog siblings to the fray."

All you New Englanders sound the same to me.

Man, I love these things always makes me laugh. Currently the Demoman is the best out right now. I cannot wait till they have the Pyro one out though, shall be sweet, that and the Medic. I agree, why the massive waits between the videos, hope the next one comes out soon.

Yes, this video confirms what I already knew about my favorite class. The Scout is a motherfucker who will not hesitate to put you in a world of hurt.

Gyne-Cobra, guess who wanted that sandwich more? That's right.

I'm the only one who thought this was the worst one? Spy, pyro, and medic are definitely going to be better than this. Which means they'll do sniper next :|

Also, why all the hate on the heavy? He dies in every single one he's not in.
