How would you make a TF2 animated series?
How would you make a TF2 animated series?
pootis
The premise is this: make Demoman the PM of the UK
Several minute long shorts, nothing stays consistant except maybe for new weapons, items ect that get added to the game.
No plot, 100% memes and non-sequiturs trying to be youtube poops from 10 years ago.
>PM of the UK
>of the UK
Motion Capture
Sounds like something that woul exist in the Team Fortress comics.
expiration date was the perfect model.
A year late
this. Id' love a mini-series of shorts just like that one. Valve's animations are of neat quality, too, with many subtle movements
>He doesn't realise they just motion captured Jerma for Meet the Scout
animate pauling scuttle
Don't have her at all in the main body of the show. Framing device only. They've shown how incapable they are at writing her when she outsnipered the Sniper for no fucking reason.
It was intended as the pilot for an Adult Swim show. Real shame Valve abandoned the idea..I think they said something like an actual show would be too time consuming as they are(were) a video game company, not animation studio.
Though, many fan animation are of equal quality, they just lack voice actors.
She actively juggles multiple things and gets one day off a year. She even has to clean up after the mercs after their missions when they don’t usually kill everyone
I’m not gonna say she’s better then Mundy but could probably do better on a good day
really? man that's heartbreaking. They only make VR games now. What a missed opportunity
Start by inventing a time machine and going back to 2011.
> soldier goes to the zoo. Organizes gladiator fights in the lion pit. Scout is the first to go
> demo bets $1000 noone can outdrink him. Pyro wins, but in rhe end it is revealed they was drinking gasoline and demo was too drunk to notice
> saxton discovers yeti sports flash games, goes to antarctica to recreate penguin golf. Team too frightened to remind him that he snapped the last yeti in existence. They dress hevy as yeti and tell him just to play along. At some point saxton wants to fight the yeti
> snooper parents are getting a divorce. Spy can help and disguises as dad to win mother back and then as mom to persuade the dad to stay
> medik cant find archimedes. Scout walks around with chickin wings. Medik plans a revenge but turns out archimedes was chilling with pyro, who taught him some phrases
>> snooper parents are getting a divorce. Spy can help and disguises as dad to win mother back and then as mom to persuade the dad to stay
I can imagine sniper's dad having sex with spy mom and then spy fuckin vomiting once he's done disguising
Valve don't give a shit anymore. Fan animators promote the game on youtube for free. Winglet's TF2 vs Overwatch has over 18 million views.
SCOTLAND IS NOT A REAL COUNTRY! YOU ARE AN ENGLISHMAN IN A DRESS!
perfect
By actually making it on time
fuck you valve
>the whole trip thing was just him covering the fact he was at the frozen chamber, fusing whit the scout VC to create the real scout for the video
THICC
I'll tell you what I wouldn't do, I wouldn't have Valve do it in-house. They shit the bed hard with Valve Timing the one they were going to for Adult Swim.
If I were to do it now, assuming I had the budget and resources of a network like Cartoon Network, I'd adapt the story of the comic (at least for the first season) and hire community SFM animators that are familiar with the program, maybe dipping into the pool of Saxxy award winners and nominees.
On that note, making a few Agent Gunn fillers would be cool too youtube.com
holy actual fuck I'm dying!
Yes
>make a pilot about a team of bloodthirsty but hilarious mercenaries committing espionage and fighting each other to the death
>give it a cheesy plot about a generic dork trying to impress a cool girl, with some window dressing about his zany coworkers
Expiration Date was the most watered-down, halfassed plot they could've done. There are some absolutely fucking madcap cartoons on Adult Swim, but Valve apparently thought everything has to follow a Futurama sitcom rulebook.
That still shouldn't make her better than a guy who devotes his whole life to sniping.
Everyone has their niche on the team, you don't see Scout grabbing Heavy's minigun and going to town with it. It kinda kills the premise if Pauling is a master of anything the writers feel like.
At the risk of summoning a "have sex" poster, everything you just said is why she's a textbook Mary Sue character. She works herself to death and is probably better than all those silly boys who make up the main cast and could do their jobs better than them if she wasn't busy doing more important stuff.
Not exactly compelling.
with modern animation of course!
UPDATE!
>It was intended as the pilot for an Adult Swim show. Real shame Valve abandoned the idea..I think they said something like an actual show would be too time consuming as they are(were) a video game company, not animation studio.
which is stupid, why the fuck would they handle it themselves and not outsource it to another company?
I came here just to agree with you.
they really fucked up hard by not making one. then again they really fucked up hard by not doing enough with tf2 in general.
Just let the animators of the Venture Brothers do it. Said that because the artstyle seems fitting.
youtube.com
The problem probably was most likely related to Valve time™, they would take forever to write a season for Adult Swim and get the animation done how they want it
Dead game.
>he works herself to death and is probably better than all those silly boys who make up the main cast
Outside of Engineer and Medic at least, those guys seem unparalleled in their fields. Plus I bet she only has 1 soul.
no u
Yeah just look at how long it took to update the comics.
Spy: Seduce.
Scout: You?
Spy: Seduce!
Scout: What?
Spy: SEDUCE!!!
Scout: Ok.
>tfw we could have had an adult swim tf2 show
>tfw we'll never get one
it really fucking hurts bros
So Valve fucked up.
The most recent update made it so Series 1-8 crates spit out Unusuals 100% of the time.
Crates are currently going for $70-100 on the market, Series 1 Unusuals are plummeting below $5.
Get while the getting's good.
Are you retarded? The joke is that it's a lame plot and weird shit will keep happening despite it. They fight a bread monster, pauling is a professional murder janitor, and then they blow up the bread monster. Pretty zany if you ask me.
>lowest numbered crates I still have are #24
That's fine. I'm used to nice things never happening to me.
Hey, Netflix is a thing. You never know.
>Coming soon!
>last updated January 10, 2017
The "Meet The [blank]" shorts show pretty easily how an animated series could've been made. Shame that Valve really doesn't give a shit about the game anymore and a majority of the voice actors either can't do the voices anymore, they've retired from voice acting or they're actually dead. From what I remember, the Scout's VA started to get annoyed that he was only known as the Scout.
>No horns
FAST
AND
LOOSE
you do it using source filmmaker but the program is very difficult
I'd make a comic on the currently crashing economy.
>hey Spy, look at me!
>what do you want Scout, I'm busy.
>I bought all these frikkin unusuals off the market for dirt cheap, we're gonna be rich!
>scout, I hope you realize Valve is going to roll back the unusuals, and your purchases will be worth jack squat
>just you wait and see, baguette for brains.
And the end of the episode would be Scout re-enacting /biz/ during the bitcoin collapse.
At least getting a nice unusual will be easy if I ever decide to get back into TF2.
It's way to late for it
Team Neighborhood is a pretty good example of what you could do
