Post Re: Meet the sniper!
I've only just watched this yesterday (shame on me - Sniper was my main for yonks) due to a borked net connection. Wow. Just wow. It's the first "Meet The..." vid I watched multiple times consecutively.

Great music, total immersion, a great insight into the character and, as mentioned by Eion, cinematography to rival the gore lord himself.

Easter eggs (as has been mentioned) including the headshot sign, the civilian bobblehead on the TF logo, the story behind the Demo's eyepatch, the Pyro's new unlock, the Blu bus godamn this vid had everything.

Easily the best so far, I was getting ready for a disappointment having not watched it with the initial rush and having quite a build up but it just met and exceeded every expectation. Fucking awesome dialogue and one-liners too.

"...long as there's two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead."

"Dad? Dad, I'm a- Ye- Not a "crazed gunman", dad, I'm an assassin! ...Well, the difference bein' one is a job and the other's mental sickness!"

"Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet."

(solly) [Snip] (Sniper)

Boom. HeadShot.

Actually. Demo didn't get his eypatch that way, because the eyepatch is on his left eye. The bottle hit right blinding him.

And I have thought about the "Have a plan to kill everyone you meet." line.

Does he have a plan where he kills everyone he meets, or does he have to make a plan to kill the people he meets just in case he needs to kill them later?

The latter, and you're right about the Demo.

I also forgot the FOAD sign right at the start. I can't make out the rest of the text on it but it could definitely stand for a favourite phrase of mine :D

F*** Off And Die! [Snip]

I loved it but personally the Meet the Scout vid is my favorite atm :D

Also, this has been mentioned before but the bobblehead is the Civilan/VIP from the Hunted map from TFC. The map let you have 2 teams, one with the VIP guy and bodygaurds and another with hunters (who can only be sniper class). :ugeek: I used to live on that map back in the day lol XD
