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"?
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Meet the rest of the team
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.
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.
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.
DV2fox did you look at the official one or are you basing it off this youtube? anyways: TF2 makes me happy. medic is my MOST played class. can't wait for the additions!
awesome, but damnit why so much wait, will we see new ''meet the'' video even when the third game will be out, at that rate i wont be surprised. pew pew pew.
"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."
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.
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.

BOINK!
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.
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?
Best Meet The so far.
"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.
I'll buy this after I get GTA IV.
...Gotta make sure I have cash for GTA IV, after all.
All you New Englanders sound the same to me.
Gyne-Cobra, guess who wanted that sandwich more? That's right.
