    "He eventually got the influence with the Huo Long Heater. Its original design was a Chinese cannon retrofit to automatically fire fireworks/retrorocket type ammo. That 'front sight' is actually a remaining bit from that initial design, where it's one of many ridged scales of the dragon cannon. Valve wanted a more machine gun looking weapon, so we shrunk the cannon bit down, changed it to a massive Browning-esque heat shield, kept that single scale to give it a little dragony feel.
    Valve also wanted animations of the dragon mouth opening and closing, so I had to cut the head into two parts so they could be animated like that. I knew they had depreciated the wind-up/down animations when they moved to the procedural minigun barrel at this point, but they wanted it anyway. "Just in case." Doubt that animation is anywhere, anymore. I don't think it survived release in the .MDL, but could be wrong. I'm sure Jonathan would've 'loved' that.

    I believe the hazard tape and light on the mini-senty actually fits with the way that a lot of engineer players use it: you basically quickly pop it out before engaging an enemy as a distraction.

    "We have the technology in theory to identify track and engage autonomously enemy soldiers." Funny enough my high school senior project was making an airsoft auto turret a la the TF2 engineer turret and was the same year TF2 was released. Back then it was easy enough to assemble the bits needed. Open source software already was available to allow for simple motion tracking. Target ID would be a feature to work on(maybe rely on friendlies having transmitters or some marking). Point being that sentry guns are easy enough to setup that shoot everything. Most of the complicated bits would be restricting fire to only certain targets.

    Actually, the soda can does let you deal more damage when consumed, but after an update the Soda Popper no longer deals more damage but rather allows the Scout (the person who uses all of the lever-action shotguns) to go from having a double jump to having 5 jumps.
    Also, the pistol reloading animation is unique to Scout only, as Engineer uses the pistol but has a more realistic reload.

    The thing with TF2 to keep in mind is that they must all use the same animations per class. and these are the animations originally made in 2007. So some hold up better than others. I used to run custom animations on this game until valve no longer allowed client-side mods like that to work in their servers. So while they wanted to make a reference to the tommygun with this gun scout has, they had to use either the double barrel reload or the lever action reload for his primary weapon. so that's why these mechanisms are always sort of crammed in.

    08:40 The "Loose cannon" breech-loading action seems to call back to the Vietnam-era grenade gun, at least IMO. Most TF2 weapons are indeed "the Warner Brothers" versions of firearms, and they're usually retro-styled in some way (1950s ray gun, 1880s shotgun, a scaled down cannon that wouldn't look out of place on a 1700s sailing ship etc). So... that was probably what they were going for, but maybe "a grenade gun, but older" was what they had on their minds.

    @vonBelfry Před 2 lety +3

    For the Nostromo Napalmer: The names of guns tend to err toward alliteration. It's usually either a pun, some sort of name that's special either to the character that wields it or the update it was introduced OR its an alliterative name.
    And then there's "prefix" titles for guns dependent on how or when the player got the gun. "Genuine", in this case, means that the weapon was a reward for purchasing a certain game in the Alien franchise that Valve made a deal with.
