I think it'd work like how the conga would where people automatically sync up It goes on forever until the host quits it and then it plays the outro. This is a cool cosmetic idea!
this should be like a group taunt where an Icon would appear above their head, and when the taunt started, the taunt will be automatically synced to the song. imagine a whole casual round where everyone from the blu and red team playing the tf2 theme
But for that you'll need to buy the taunt, wich by valves standarts is a no-go. If it will be like the conga, where you can join even if you don't have it, then it could work.
Engineer doing the bassline is arguably the best because that bassline is present in almost every piece of the game's soundtrack. Also pyro's cool. Obnoxiously spamming the triangle in the spawn room at the start of the round could get some reactions for sure.
It feel empty to know that Mercenary Melody was not contributed to the game. But at least this taunt looks super good and can make it to the next tf2 update!
Scout using his bucket of chicken to play, then doing a spin and a hip thrust to throw the bucked away is so freaking cool and adorable! He's got speed and rhythm!
Am I the only one who would have found it hilarious if Pyro and Heavy switched instruments? “How the hell is pyro playing through the gas mask?!” “Why is the biggest guy playing the triangle?!”
@@megatmations. I’m not saying it should be done for making sense, I just thought it would add to the cartoonish/comedic element that TF2 has in its overall design
It was submitted on time. It just wasnt in a good place when i submitted it. I completely redid medic from scratch so it took a bit for me to finish. But i did meet the deadline
Now this is something that NEEDS to be put in the game. A group orchestra that actually has their own unique pieces that when played together creates harmony. Such a brilliant idea for a taunt, hopefully people can join in like the conga.
they aren’t going to add the spy one, the engineer one, the scout one, the sniper one, and the soldier one because they are already in the game in some way

Freakin amazing! It's not just a taunt that gives each mercenary there own instrument fit for them, but together they all make the iconic tune! Great job and hopefully people vote for this in the workshop.
love how heavy just slams down his tuba lmao i can really tell that a lot of love went into this from a lot of people :) if i listed every little detail that made me smile i would be here all day
You should make the taunt go on for as long as they choose and make the audio loop, then make it like the dance taunts where you can join in, and when you join in it automatically syncs up!
This is a Perfect Taunt and it needs to be added pretty nice work and you added the personality of the mercs with the instruments they are playing which is really nice! Good Work Partner!!
I absolutely adore this! The only critique I have is that Medic is seen playing the accordion in another taunt, so I feel like it would be more fitting to have him play it again here. I definitely think this should be in the game!
Yes, though for the purposes of instrumentation someone needed the bass drum, and Medic (the backbone of a successful team) fills the role that the bass drum does in a band, which provides a tempo. But, I would switch the triangle for an electric guitar on Pyro, I feel like the triangle is less needed.
i actually really like the idea of medic playing a (large, heavy) drum here and having *spy* be the one to play the accordion. it has some... interesting implications. especially when you remember that whole thing about medic keeping spy's severed head in the refrigerator.
Hey I dunno if you realized this, but medic playing a drum of almost any sort actually makes a lot of sense. I dunno if it does from a lore standpoint, but from a musical standpoint it makes absolute sense. He's not somuch the main attraction except for the odd server/concert here and there, but supplies an amazing sense of beat for the crowd and tempo for the people onstage. Of course while some singlehandedly make the entire team better, there are also some that tend to be freeloading off the rest of their teams skill (drummer slander).
@@emirwattabor6991 -- I was not aware that he was canonically in the military. May I ask for a source on that particular bit of info? I am not so egotistical as to think my knowledge wholly infallible, but I am quite confident in my knowledge of Medic lore, and that there is nothing military in it at all.
I like to imagine that if you synch it all up as a group, and play the whole song as a band, it acts as a kill binding taunt like Heavy's finger gun. If your off time with the other band mates it doesn't work.
This should be a taunt like the Kazotsky Kick or Conga where people who don't have the taunt can press the taunt key to join in and you could move around while doing it.
This should probably be a joinable taunt that doesnt end unless you make it end, like the kazotsky kick, so that it would be easier to get all 9 classes to play at the same time.
Also I suggest making BLU team play in either a high or lower octave wave, it would make having the whole of BLU and Red playing at the same time more fuller.
It would be higher since music represting blue team is more energetic andstlish wich is seen in tge vitory music during cometive we blues sounds almost like surfer music
Damn, this was really good, I think the accordion would look better on the doctor because he already has the accordion taunt, but I already added it to my workshop, congratulations on the work
Gonna be honest, the concept/idea is pretty good but it can definitely use some work (possibly a lot of work). 1. Class orientated instruments, ESPECIALLY for the classes that already have their own instrument taunt. 2. Animation quality, its very robotic/clonky, smooth em out. 3. The sync issue, instead of just playing a small section for a short amount of time, have them play a longer section and have it loop so it'll be easier to sync with. (Or you could just have them join in at the part you're playing, like how the conga/kazotsky kick/mannrobics works)
the movement could be polished a bit more but honestly this is super good. i also like the detail that demoman harmonizes because without it i think it would sound bland since it would just be octaves. good work.
Impressive. I adore each Mercs choice of instrument to brandish. Medic's is unexpectantly perfect and I love his movements. I do believe that a few mercs could use a tune up on their animations. A few notable ones are Scout, Demo and Engie. They kind of lack an extra oomp of their personality on front along with Scout and Engie's animations in general being rather choppy. Demo looks rather stiff and could benefit from some dancing like he does with his previous bagpipe taunt (maybe even a little gyrations or stumbling).
They flail around a bit too much for my liking but other than that - amazing work I genuinely want this in-game now, would be the first multi-class instrument taunt that syncs into one cohesive music instead of there being couple single-class taunts with different songs for each
It’s an infinite partner taunt like conga, kick, etc. has a style select. 4-5 official songs, choose the song by choosing style. Loops, and each loop lets the next person start. (So if you join mid loop, you stand there waiting to pull your instrument out) I can see the sheer game stoppage when saluting the statue with this and rocket jump waltz
I already voted for this wonderful amazing piece, I really hope this gets added cause it just touches my heart seeing that all the mercs playing create such a memorable song.
Even though you’d need convince 9 people with this taunt in the same server to play each of the 9 classes, come to the same area of the map and sync the beginning and end of the taunt perfectly to listen to all the parts of the music together, I still want this in the game. It’s incredible
There needs to be more recognition for sniper, heavy and soldier's animations where they press the valves accordingly. It's such a tiny detail nobody would've minded was missing, but it was added anyways. Bravo!
Soldier: I play the trumpet to show my confidence and ability to do great in battle! Demoman: I play the bagpipes, because it reminds me of my homeland! Scout: B U C K E T
In my opinion - medic should play the violin. (First - we already have drums - scout's bongo Second - medic have amputator taunt.) So, about another mercenaries - thats great 👍
Damn the engineer is a rock star, I wish we got this in the game some day! Although, the animations needs some more work but this is amazing. Imagine 2fort sewer orchestra xD
I can already imagine the people trying to sync it up together in a group. Hope it gets added one day.

Saw this on Reddit, instantly upvoted and just sat through it. My favorite has to be soldier.
Even though you’d need convince 9 people with this taunt in the same server to play each of the 9 classes, come to the same area of the map and sync the beginning and end of the taunt perfectly to listen to all the parts of the music together, I still want this in the game. It’s incredible
It could automatically sync up like the conga does
Highlander's gonna be fun with this taunt
I think this taunt is genius because you can do a lot of variations. A soldier and a medic can play it only them and it would still sound good
There needs to be more recognition for sniper, heavy and soldier's animations where they press the valves accordingly. It's such a tiny detail nobody would've minded was missing, but it was added anyways. Bravo!
Soldier: I play the trumpet to show my confidence and ability to do great in battle!
Demoman: I play the bagpipes, because it reminds me of my homeland!
Scout: B U C K E T
Heavy: I play tuba because I am biggest of team!
I feel like Soldier would provide the drums from knocking on his hat
In my opinion - medic should play the violin.
(First - we already have drums - scout's bongo
Second - medic have amputator taunt.)
So, about another mercenaries - thats great 👍
Damn the engineer is a rock star, I wish we got this in the game some day! Although, the animations needs some more work but this is amazing. Imagine 2fort sewer orchestra xD
the engineer one sound like it was a music from the menu
This should be a group taunt so it doesnt require 9 people to spend 5-10 dollars just to do this
