The Demoman got me man, his best friend.
“Eyy, OUR bottle of scrumpy..”
Idk man seems kinda communistic to me and you know how solider feels about those communistic scum.
K. Aethiopicus oh my bad. I didn’t think about that. I just thought that demo and soldier have shared the bottle together like good friends.
Sharing = communism man cmon lmao
Fun fact, they're friends. In one of the first tf2 comics they have a friendship that starts Demo v Soldier. So seeing how the comics are cannon they're friends
"A man dies when he is forgotten"
Soldier was right when he said "We will live forever"
ligma ball let’s hope the next generations remember
We will never forget him

A man dies 2 deaths, once when he passes and again when his name is mentioned for the last time
I guess I'm dead then :I
It’s been 4 years now 😞
Rest in peace Rick May 🕊️

That I am saying man
We are getting further away from him 😞
Its a fine thing lad may he rest in peace he may be gone but he will never be forgotten
I am sad
“Oh Soldier, who will they ever find to replace you?” *realizes nobody can*
You can never replace a legend..
And nobody ever will.
And nobody...
"Who will they ever find to replace you?"
No one, no one can
Soldier: dont give up. Keep looking. I'm sure theres some one who is as talanted out there.
@libnny gutierrez Stop douting! Someone has to take soldiers place! Or tf2 is doomed!
Actually thats a good point if tf2 ever gets an update EVER
I was hoping one of yall would say azzerz
@@morganmillington2388 perhaps they could find a replacement, but it just won't feel the same

Today marks the 4th year since Rick May's passing, and every year during this day I always come to this video to send my condolences to him. He was a gift from god but soon to be taken by an evil disease, that is the Corona virus. This guy has changed alot of people's lifes and made a ton of people's days with his voice acting and his passion, and I still think of him to this day, sometimes even getting some tears out and getting emotional because of his passing. For all the people, that see this message I just wanna say.. Continue on with your life, enjoy playing games and better yet, enjoy playing tf2 if you can, and remember this.. April 8th is the day that our beloved legend passed, so make sure to pay your respects each year for him, as he may be watching us from above, smiling and living in a better life from up top. Godspeed you magnificent bastard 😭
You were good, real good. Maybe even the best.

Yesterday was a sad day for the TF2 community, as the beloved voice actor for Soldier had passed away that day, 4 years ago. The solar eclipse was just Rick May performing the worlds best rocket jump.
the 4th year has passed, and it still hurts knowing that magnificent rocket jumping bastard is gone
"Oh, Soldier, who will they ever find to replace you?"
*realization hits*
Spies face after realizing he is gone hit hard, it really hit hard. Just the realization that his enemy who he has fought for years upon years is now gone and he never got to say goodbye, no one did.

The fact that a BLU spy respected a soldier from the enemy team’s death hits me in the feels.
Same, this is the saddest thing in a gamers life
I think is red spy with his abilty
canonically, red demoman and blu soldier are best friends. wouldnt be a surprise if blu demoman and red soldier are best friends too

i kinda lost interest in the game nowadays,but his death still makes me cry time to time
@@fluffradtry playing as a spy, I don’t know why but I’m 100% sure you didn’t really play as him, it’s really satisfying and fun to backstab someone or get out of dangerous situations by using cloak or dead ringer
The fact that he’s actually gone and his death sparked the whole community to so suddenly flood back in is what makes me cry
I thought that when I saw all the tributes. It's beyond what we consider beautiful.
It even made the Sly Cooper community sad, he was the voice of Dr.M after all
@@MiniZurkon8008 And the voice for Peppy from Star Fox 64 which makes it 20x more sad. hope he's doing barrel rolls in a better place, gamer
I played a lot before this happened this is just sad what happened tho

Ah hell, now you made me tear up!
Don't forget about Soldier's fiance Zhanna and his brother-in-law, Heavy.
Black Egret true
Reading this literally just made me cry
And they're both explosive type classes :(
So 1 year ago, I found this video, and I never heard of tf2 (I mean, I actually heard it a few times), and I was emotional, I am so sorry for being so late, Godspeed Soldier, you will be missed, you brought smiles to the community.
“Good news, we’re not dying, we’re gonna live forever”!
It’s been 4 years with out you Rick May. We still miss you
He was a teacher in Seattle. Can you imagine how kick-ass it would have been to say "My teacher voiced the TF2 Soldier"? He was truly a remarkable man.
I think he was in the military as well... So bad ass, we will miss you Rick, You will always be my favorite character!
Fly High, Soldier! Godspeed to you!
Rest in peace soldier
Wow
@李胤彥Kody Lee No, im saying imagine how cool it would be. Sorry for the confusion lol. Wish I had him as a teacher though
@@jeviltheotherdevil3027 Yeah, he was in the military, in like 1970 or sometime around that

“If fighting is sure to result in victory then you must fight”
- soldier
The words of a true killing machine
Sun Tzu said that!!
And I think he knows more about fighting than you do pal because he invented it!
And then he perfected it so that no living man could beat him in the ring of honor.
Then he used his fight money to buy two of every animal on Earth, and then he herded them onto a boat, and then he beat the crap out of every single one!
Even as someone who isn’t a big TF2 player, or even someone who is that involved in the fandom, I still think about Rick May almost monthly. One of the greatest personalities in all of voice acting gone too soon. Wherever he is now, I believe he’ll continue doing great things.
I keep coming back to this every May and I still shed a tear.... Farewell Soldier

At least he thought before he layed down the rude lines
Soldier wasn't his friend. He was a man who wouldn't give up in a fight. He was a man who wanted blood to be shed on the enemy. Without Soldier, Spy felt incomplete because nobody was there to fight him over, and over and keep trying.
