2000 likes and we'll do the next part with two more classes in the game! 😁 Who are you guys most excited to see?!

As scout you can capture control points and push the payload twice as fast as other classes

There's some settings you can turn on for convenience. The first one is called something like "Fast Weapon switching" where when you scroll it automatically switches the weapons, so you don't need to put up with that menu that keeps popping up. As long as you remember what you have equipped you should be alright. Another one is that you can take advantage of the valve command console to setup unique keybinds. You need to turn it on in settings, and have a bit of knowhow to work it, but TF2 KZfaqrs like Uncle Dane use them all of the time. It's worth looking into.

you should probably turn on hit sound and kill sounds, it’s usually really helpful to know if you’ve killed or hit someone via a sound effect, whether it be seeing if someone died by your afterburn, if your sentry is attacking someone, etc

This was epic dude It's so fun seeing people discover the fun and intricacies of tf2 classes for the first time

So in terms of scout's playstyle, tracer is actually a pretty good reference since she was designed pretty heavily off of him. You wanna use your mobility to confuse and evade enemies, get in close for serious damage, and get out if things look dangerous. And like tracer, if you are just charging straight into the enemies faces or sitting back and shooting them from longer range then you are probably doing it wrong. Also, as you might remember from lazypurple's vid, one of scout's greatest strengths is his ability to choose which battles he wants to take and which ones should just be avoided, though recognizing which is which requires experience. Oh, and for heavy you can actually use right mouse button to keep the minigun revved up but not firing. There were a bunch of times when you'd just stop firing cause all the enemies were gone, only for one to appear less than a second later and you'd have to rev up your gun again, costing valuable shooting time. As a general rule of thumb for learning heavy, keep your gun revved any time you aren't on the move or if you are expecting an enemy.

22:02 The Sniper didn't just kill him, but styled on him with a 180 quick scope XD

unlocks are a key part of this game. playing on a casual server will give you the chance for an “item drop” which will give you one of a random item picked from a vast assortment. the best ones to look out for are the sandvich, the ubersaw, and the crusader’s crossbow. there are plenty of unlocks that perform much better than their stock counterparts, and there are plenty that perform significantly worse in a majority of encounters. reading stats before you use is a vital step to learning the game. or you could just go to a community hosted marketplace and get almost every unique weapon for like 5 bucks. have fun!

kieran after he sees an enemy: I NEED A MEDIC

Also a small tip, you should check out Advanced Options to change things like quick weapon switching, hit sounds and killsounds, a damage counter(for knowing if your shots are hitting anything), and certain class optimizations. These are mostly quality of life improvements.

During a fight, it's much better to keep your gun revved up while peeking corners. Heavy has a slight firing delay when releasing and pressing M1 again, so pressing both mouse buttons when peeking enemies will help you take less damage (as you won't kill the other team faster while you're stuck in the rev up animation).

As a Scout main, here are some tips for playing him: Scout is a very in your face class. He does best in close range with his scattergun where you can pop most of your enemies off in a couple of clean shots. He’s a deadly effective killer but as you’ve experienced, is super squishy. So it’s best to get a good sense of when to engage and disengage, which you can effectively do with his speed. He’s a great head on combatant but he really thrives when it comes to picking off stragglers. A good Scout has a very knowledgeable understanding of the map they’re playing on. Understanding flank routes and health kit locations is vital to a good streak. Scout thrives getting behind enemy lines. So as scout the goal is to get good at flanking into enemy lines, picking off targets before they even get the chance to notice you, and running circles around the enemy team while paying close attention to your circumstances at any given time.

As someone who plays tf2 and mains scout, I have to say good job!

One thing you should probably know is that in tf2 all classes have damage falloff, meaning you do more damage when you are closer to the enemy. This was probably apparent as scout but as heavy you kept getting everyone from a distance instead of closing the gap. Also as scout when you want to use your scattergun a lot more often.

heya kieran, pro tip, you can cancel fall damage by double jumping as scout when you are about to hit the ground also, if you like mei you might like pyro as well, functions a lot like her and with an unlockable called the flare gun hes basically her but without the walls, turtling and an ult

Hey Kieran, little bit of advice if you want to try out demo knight, you will need a shield - tide Turner, splendid screen etc, and a sword/melee - claydhamore, eyelander or even a bottle! It may not be covered in the lazypurple vid, but another thing is that demoknight is more of a "melee and be in action most of the time" playstyle, so be careful and have fun 😅😊

I can't wait to see you play with actual players, it'll be an absolute blast or a total disaster

I didn't notice on stream, but mah boi tanked a crocket to the face

We need more of this good sir

Bro i have been waiting for dis

You're doing alot better than most newbies. Hope you're here to stay c:

8:55 Bullets are not projectiles, Pyro can airblast rockets, stickies, pipes, Sniper's arrows, Jarate and Madmilk, those objects are projectiles.

A tip when playing scouts is to: 1. Pick your fights optimally: never mess with heavies or sentry guns and think twice every time you attack a pyro or soldier, other classes are fine as long as they're alone 2. Use your scattergun rather than your pistol: it deals much more damage and rewards good aim 3. Dont be afraid: go right in the enemies face to get the better of your bullet spread and damage ramp-up 4. MOVEMENT: A-D spam and double- jump as much as possible to dodge stuff, scout only has 125 hp wich allows one mistake but not much more.

Just subbed. This dude is hilarious!

I think you'll have the hardest time with Spy and Engineer. There's a lot of technical know-how with those two classes that a complete newcomer wouldn't have the ability to figure out on a short time basis.

I love how he started using the shotgun a bunch and accidentally found the fat scout subclass before even playing scout.

You made me scream when you went away from the tele

I can't fucking believe I didn't see this until 2 months later! I was waiting for him to do a part 2!

Yess so happy ur playing tf2 again

For scout a general tip can be to move unpredictably so you do not get hit as much , aiming can be done with to tactics flicking at the enemy or guiding your crosshair with your movement and lighter flicks , the scout is a pick class so keep in mind the main targets to go for ( medic sniper demo ) , avoid engeis they will wipe you out of the face of the earth For soldier learn how to do a basic rocket jump it can open up the map a lot more then just walking with the second slowest movement speed , try to hit your rockets as close to your enemy as possible and do not shoot rockets at pyros unless it your only option ( aim for the feet harder to reflect also space out your shots for the same reason ) , meds are a priority target as always but shoot every thing that moves For pyro positioning is key i suggest playing with scout or spy (with the clock and digger ) to learn the maps , it helps going behind the enemy (it can scare soldiers and demos into shooting for an easy reflect) , flare guns do a lot for you the normal flare gun can deal crits to burning enemies the detonator can be used for flare jumping to close distance and get to places a pyro should not be expected and the scorts shot is for being and mind my French an asshole it can deal a lot of afterburn dmg and it deals eoe dmg so you can just spam it For demo you need to practice your pipes more then anything else they deal missive amounts of dmg , sticky bombs can be used for traps but more likely then not you will find that spaming it is more effective charging your shots can catch retreating enemies For the heavy much like pyro positioning in the most important thing to look out for , heavy is great at close quarters but out in the line of sight of snipers he will be dead meat in seconds so look out for snipers , spies are also something to look out for since you are slow and can be back stabed for engineer do your best to look out for spies and keep your nest going , do not underestimate the power of your shotgun 90 dmg per shot can kill most class in 2 clean shots building placement is key to being a good engineer put your dispenser just outside of the front line so your team has a safe place to go back and refile on health and ammo (fck this is long) put your sentry ware it can guard the dispenser and the objective and lastly teleporters usually go behind cover a few clicks away from the front line For medic do NOT show your head in the sniper sight line , do NOT get distracted and lose track of ware your team or you will be scout food , also look out for spies and spread your heals evenly , uber is best used with demo soldier and heavy but is the player in question is skilled any class but spy can do the job For sniper find good spots ware you can see the map , prioritize meds snipers heavies and any thing else that is an active threat , look out for spies and do not forget to throw piss at burning teammates or any spies that come for you For spy learn the other classes first

I NEED MORE!!!!!

I would suggest turning on fast weapon switch in the advanced settings. So then you can just scroll at the mouse wheel to switch weapons instead of scrolling and clicking at the weapons you want to use

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANK YOU

Some things you otta turn on/change: 1 - Field of View *Options (Gear on the main menu) > Video > Advanced > FoV.* Set this to 90. It looks like you're still playing with the default 75 which is severely limiting your awareness. 2 - Fast Weapon Switch *Advanced Options (Gear with the + on the main menu) > Combat Options > Fast Weapon Switch.* Turn on. This will disable the weapon list on the right side of the screen and allow you to instantly switch weapons with either the scroll wheel or number buttons. 3 - Hit and Kill Sounds *Advanced Options > Combat Options > Hit Sound* and *Last Hit Sound.* Turn on. By default, these will play a "ding" sound when you damage an enemy and a "dong" sound when you kill an enemy. Feel free to fiddle with the pitch settings and sound effect if you want, but most people just use the default values. Bonus - Damage Number improvements *Advanced Options > Combat Options > Accumulate Text Into a Single Number.* Turn on (if it's not already). Having one number count up is much easier to understand than a bunch of 7s, 8s, and 9s. You can also change the color of the text here to a more visible color; I recommend yellow ( Mine's R: 225, G: 225, B: 0) as it's much easier to see than the default red, but that's up to you. BONUS Bonus: Just scroll through the Advanced Options list; it's got a good amount of little things to tailor your gameplay experience.

When chat said "a lot of movement" he started to dodge like he was playing a 2d game only up, forward, backward

what’s really killing you is that your not aggressive as scout as you should be, the scattergun is a shot gun, if you get up close, you can deal upwards of 100 damage per shot, enough to kill any class one on one if you aim and strafe properly depending on which class your fighting for heavy, you’d want to get as close as living possible and strafe around him so it’s difficult for him to track you, for pyro, you’d wanna stay at mid range and pelt him with 40-60 damage shots till he dies

you have very good and resourceful use of melee

Just some clarification about how bullets work in TF2: There are two types, hitscan and projectiles. Hitscan weapons include the minigun, sniper rifle, scattergun, shotgun and pistol. How hitscan works is that the bullets have zero travel time and are dependent on where your cursor is aiming. While some hitscan weapons do have bullet spread that deviates from your cursor, the bullets themselves still hit immediately. Hitscan cannot be reflected. Projectiles, however, are physical bullets that have travel time and hitboxes. Projectile weapons include rocket launchers, grenade launchers, throwable secondaries and flare guns. Projectiles have a different hit mechanic than hitscan, using the entire hitbox of the enemy as whole instead of smaller, more precise hitboxes that hitscan uses. Most importantly, almost every projectile can be reflected by Pyro's airblast, with a few exceptions. The arsenal of most classes are a mix of hitscan and projectile, like scout, soldier and pyro. Some are mostly hitscan, like sniper and heavy. And then you have demoman with all projectiles. Note that pyro's flamethrowers are unique, instead of using either hitscan or projectiles instead they emit a constant stream of particles, but it's a lot more complicated. Anyways, hope this helps

In f2 you can run back o spawn to : heal yourself, get ammo by standing next to the locker. As a scout you can flank enemies and kill thier sniper, medic allso you can wih any class destroy enemies teleporter with damage to anoy engeniers.

19:55 NO, that is the exact opposite of what you should do 😂

Here are some tips and essential unlocks for both Scout and Heavy: Scout: The scattergun is very consistent and is always better than your pistol except for reloading Scout only needs Bat unlocks to be really good. Heavy: Any seasoned heavy will tell you that swapping the Sandvich for a shotgun is a bad idea (this is a remenant from the early days of TF2) Heavy can use unlocks like the GRU (Gloves of Running Urgently) to boost his speed but at the cost of a max health drain or the fists of steel to boost his defense while retreating Some heavy mains swear by the Tomislav in Casual or Comp... Just use which one you prefer

For some Advice, since you have no unlocks on heavy yet, you want to close the gap between you and your enemy with your shotgun, when you reach a close distance, start shooting with your minigun, the closer you are to your target the more damage you do, that is called ramp-up, the farther you are from your target, the less damage you do, that is called fall-off, then, you dont really wanna use your fists for anything as heavy. For scout, Same thing, Use your pistol to close the gap, now somewhere in 19:29 you wanna try to dodge the grenades, they are projectiles so they take time to travel, use your speed to dodge the grenades, since you are fast, you wanna kill off people like medics, who heal they're team, if they have no medics your team has an advantage, kill of people who are lonely, for example if you see a sniper, you wanna move around quickly so that the sniper has a hard time shooting you, if that sniper uses his SMG, try to rival it with the pistol if you wanna be funny, or dodge the Smg shots and kill him with your shotgun, As scout you wanna be close to your target, A shotgun is mostly used in close quarters combat and Use Ramp-up to your advantage, if you are really close you can deal up to 70-90 damage which is really good, don't use the bat, j-just dont. Anyway if this helped anyone at all, then Im glad to be helpful, cant wait for you to play sniper.

Scout usually does well when he's running around the map, looking for low health or alone enemies who he can quickly finish off. He doesn't do well in team fights at all, but he can enter team fights towards the end to finish off low health enemies. Scout is like a vulture.

hey kieran, press the , beside the dot it's where you change class, before or after died depends what class you want to play or support their team like medic for example.

really nice

you might wanna get fast weapon switching enabled in your settings also mess around with other settings for the fov and viewmodel arms

Cant wait to see you play spy man (it can be painful at times take it from me)

i love these

He are all the subclasses if you want to include them in other videos Demo knight: you probably already know this one Fat Scout: this is heavy but instead of using his mini gun he uses his shotgun Battle Engineer: An Engineer who is more in the frontlines and instead uses mini sentries Battle Medic: instead of being a MEDIC and HEALING you instead shoot people with your syringe gun Huntsman Sniper: Sniper uses a bow and arrow and is more in the mid and front lines Gun Spy: this one is pretty self explanatory

I really like the scout he’s so fast and pretty fun to play

This is great

Pyro's airblast can reflect any type of projectile (except lasers? I can't remember if Pyro can reflect lasers). Bullets on the other hand are a hitscan type of damage, which Pyro can't reflect

Oh god, ranged scout, he made the Sub Class official

As a heavy it's best to rev up before a fight, because all miniguns have a hidden attribute of -50% damage and accuracy penalty for 1 second after you rev up. So its better to hand around a corner and rev up for about a second before engaging with the enemy so you'll deal the highest amount of damage you can

Would love to see you playing as Soldier and Spy in the next vid.

The problem with the trainings bots is, that they mostly know where you are so you cant flank them as scout. I would recommend playing casual (CTF maps for long matches) And the bots are getting mostly kicked fast so they arent a problem anymore (not that bad for now).

YES

You should check out the TF2 PSAs. All little tips on the dos and don’ts. Each is like 45 seconds long

As sour, you can use your mobility to run in, shoot people (especially using the shotgun aka the scattergun) and if the fight becomes too much, just run away.

He has yet to realize health and ammo packs exist

About the sensitivity, if you haven't already changed your sens to the ow equivalent, you should do that. If you have, then you should make sure mouse acceleration is off and raw input is on to make sure nothing is messing with your aim.

As heavy you can hold mouse 2 to rev-up your mini gun

Tip for scout: get close to your enemy and your use scattergun when you are close to an enemy to do a meatshot

The ragdoll and lightheartedness in these games has me still playing after more than 10 years. Just be careful of the bots. They will ruin everything.

YESSSSSS

As Scout you wanna move and jump as much as possible. When jumping in TF2, you stay in motion towards the area you jumped towards, but as Scout, you can press jump again while in the air to change the direction you are going mid-air. You want to try to sneak past enemies in a way and attack enemies who are distracted by someone on your team, get close, and then shotgun them. Make sure to hit them with every single bullet from your shotgun to do the best damage.

Ok so i have few tips: on the map u have ammo packs and health packs also when someone die he drops ammo pack. Also playing scout you need to be like spy sneaking and shooting people from behind on close combat ofcourse u know scout have shotgun xd In advanced settings find quick weapon switch and manually zooming and unzooming sniper rifle

When he realised something I thought he realised that u could change Class mid game with ( , ) but no it wad that he could double jump

I love how you like melle weapon) youll like demoknight I think

Hell yes

come on lets get this to 2k likes i wanna see the pyro gameplay and demo.

My guy!! You need to play as demo knight!

It brings me joy watching someone else play TF2.

Tip for scout get close to get alot of damage with the scatter gun ( not with the pistol )

In the words of lazy Purple for you playing scout: “YOU HAVE A SHOTGUN” And in Uncle Dane’s words “shotguns are pretty powerful man but you need to put it in the enemy’s face they don’t do damage at range”

This is adorable.

DUDE, love that you're playing TF2, you should definitely try out Engineer and Spy. Their mechanics are awesome. Try out playing online casual, on 2Fort, the greatest map of all time

In my recent experience, the casual servers have much improved with bot issues

Kierean gaming

why is fast weapon switch not on by default?

When another part?

Also use your speed and double jump to doge heavys and sniper bullet

One thing you desperately need to realize is that damage in TF2 scales with distance. Unless you're using a sniper rifle or you randomly get the funny glowy bullets on your other weapons (crits), your shots are going to do way less damage the further away you are. This is especially the case with Scout's scattergun, which does even more damage up close than most other weapons do. At the distance you were shooting for most of your time playing Scout, you were doing about half of your weapon's base damage, or about a third of what you could've done at full ramp up.

You should try VSH mode (versus saxton hale) its a new summer gamemode

Please turn on fast weapon switch in the advanced options menu

press , to change class

Every time you drope minigun spinning your dmg is getting lower. The first few seconds of shooting minigun deals lower dmg

I would save medic, spy, and engineer for last, espically engineer which requires having very good map sense almost forgot to mention it is the most stressful class to play

the only significant difference that i see you doing. is taking out the shotgun up close, not a lot of players do that, and the quickness of the shotgun might be better than non hit scan (hit scan : instant hit weapons that dont take time to travel through the air)

You should watch this TF2 song called the most fashionable faction by the stupendium. All their content is very good so check out some other songs while your there!

Can’t wait for him to join a pub and start asking chat how to use VC only to find out he needs to pay $5 in the market in order to actually communicate iwth his team

if you are playing pyro, airblast teammates that are on fire, rewarding you with 20hp

For the first 4:00 minutes I've been screaming at you to hold right click XD

Scout does a lot of damage if you are close to and aiming in the middle of the opponent. I’m talking 80-100 damage. Try and not go for large groups of people and don’t try to gun down a sentry unless you need too. Also as scout you highly rely on movement. With his double jumping and speed you can run in circles around the enemy team and you can get a lot of damage in.

HE NEEDS TO TURN ON HITSOUNDS THE GAME NEEDS ITS HITSOUNDS

If you pick to be pyro I can give you some tips on him, I am a scout main but at times I do like to pick Pyro cause he is quite useful!

The problem with playing scout is every other class feels so… slow… when you switch. Like play an hour of scout and swap to soldier. Feels like you’re wearing lead shoes.

0:08 Melee is often a bad strategy, but it is NEVER a *weak* one. Most classes have 125 hp or 150 hp, 175 max unless they're soldier, demoknight, or Heavy, and each hit of melee does 65 damage. That means you can take anyone down in 2 or 3 hits. They can usually get rid of you before then, but if they don't... well yeah gg and that's not even factoring in crits

Even if you are playing against bots and you are not good at playing, you can tell that you are enjoying it.

this is epic
