Scout single-handedly plowing through the first wave of bots made him look more like a real fighter instead of a douchebag that we know. Also i like the fact that Heavy's minigun was actually accurate and wasn't throwing bullets around. The whole animation is simple yet so cool!
For whatever reason, Scout in the comics tends to pull through when the team needs him most, like when he died destroying a shit ton of robots, so I’d say this is fairly in character for him.
Dude may be cocky, incompetent, and doesn't know how to shut his mouth once in a while but he didn't became the mercenary and the team's hit n runner for nothing
I actually killed a bot in tf2 as scout once, but it was reloading and sadly a teammate had to die, one of the things I love about this community is despite the bot raids we stay strong and fight back for what’s right.
I have two things to say about this one. First of all, I can clearly see "Rise of the Epic Scout" metaphorically screaming for about a half of this video, and as a scout main i can relate to it Secondly, this animation is pretty damn good.
I loved the rise of the epic scout SFM! If crash maul does some more SFM’s, I will be so psyched up! Like white on spy was my favorite SFM out of the five she made so far.
Pro tip. Some of the bots are programmed to only shoot if they can hit the head. If you turn around and look down, this places your head hitbox behind the player model, making it so bots cannot actually headshot you. In many cases, they just won't shoot. Works wonders on good sniper players too.
@The Last Mlg most good snipers are quick scopers and only really hit you for 50. Its mainly used as a 'oh damn, there is a sniper in this sight line and I seem to have pushed too far out, let me retreat back to safety in such a way that the dps of sniper will not kill me". Plus, you rather be headshot?
Another cool thing is looking upwards as soldier or calling for a medic so your arm hitbox blocks your head hitbox. Also crouch and jump randomly to throw off a sniper's aim and prediction.
It doesn't work in TF2 since your character model can't look directly down. But if you look up on the other hand, that will work, since your arm will block the head hitbox.
@@derdannyline2875 I mean in Germany safe mode is on by default, so there's no blood, and when they gib they turn into items related to the class e.g Engineer exploding into wrenches. So it makes in-lore sense.

I think he should be portrayed like that in animations more regulary, yeah, he's a jerk, but overall a good guy and also a mercenary, I don't know why people portray him as a defenseless, douche bag, bad person.
@@The_Alpha_and_the_Omega0 I realize he was inspired by CrashMaul but just because he was inspired doesn't mean it wasn't perfect. I look forward to seeing the sequel
I remember the one time we tried to seriously win against an all-bot sniper team after they'd booted all their human players. Defending the payload was simple enough: all Engies, hidden behind walls while the sentries did everything. Attacking was another matter: we had a heavy, a soldier, and everyone else was a Vaxx Medic playing "guess when the snipers are going to show" to try to stop our Heavy from dying as we huddled behind the cart while the Heavy stood on top.
0:31 That would such a cool idea for a demo shield! Instead of giving you a charge attack you can raise it to tank a certain amount of non fire based damage with the charge bar being it's 'health' And you can't regain shield healh unless you have it lowered for 5 seconds THEN it starts to recover. It might be broken It might not. But it would be fun no matter what.
I don't know if you've ever played Vermintide, but playing a horde hack and slash as an iron breaker Bardin holding off giants strikes and volleys of minigun fire with a trusty shield just... *_m a n ._*
@@justjoking5252 i did, actually. I don't really understand shield mechanics, but really want to, so i'm playing outcast engineer, helps me out-gat the ratling gun.

Wait, this guy makes bots? This guy is contributing to the bot crisis? This video was most likely made to divert people's focus away from the fact they make bots... Very suspicious if you ask me.
@@Nebula_Protogen752 not sure if the guy is deliberately trying to divert attention away from the crisis but he doea make bots, see the oldest vid like 2 yrs ago which is like a bot showcase?
@@walkingglasses6264 it would be way to idealistic and optimistic too assume people like that can have a change of heart. These hackers just host bots for the fun of it and enjoy the fact that they're slowly killing TF2, fueled by anger and suffering of those who fall victim to their bots. Trust me, none of those bot hosts will ever change their minds about what they're doing. They want TF2 to die and they want people to be angry at them. And they're not going to give up. They're just going to keep on going without stopping. Cheaters don't stop cheating, even after they've been caught or even when someone else attempts to force them to stop.
Ran into something like this and it made for one of the greatest stories in tf2 to stay with me. I'd joined a casual match (cart push) where every human player on the red team was gone and it was only bots. Blu team, though, were all still human... and one guy in particular with a pocket of people started to say 'go engineer!' and started to make a defensive line to stop the bots from pushing their cart. Everyone on our team, 15 players, formed the greatest defense unit seen, fixing each other's turrets, helping our brothers upgrade, staying in stock. It was a hell of a battle, but we held them back... but then... round two came. And we were the attackers. At first, they got us killed, blasted a good number of us, most didnt stand a chance in our own spawn... but some of those glorious bastards got a foot hold in. We even got a two medic and one heavy Uber charge in to mess with their flow. We moved our wall forwards, up and up, through the tunnel, out the wooden bridge, getting point on point. Sometimes we were stopped, but we found a way to keep going. Then we got the the final area, a full on open range with high grounds everywhere for the bots. They picked us off like mad and soon... we lost all our time and went into OVERTIME. On our last stand and a heartened shout, we kept people touching that cart and pushed like there was no tomorrow. The heavy medics combo charged in, engineers planting turrets at every ledge and watching with my two eyes... we pushed that cart down the hole. We had won. There were roars of cheers and celebrations amongst the explosion of the bot pit was victory. A we ran for the after game lap and gunned down them bots... and we were hopeful. Those bots... they were legion. But us? We were the WALL. The Texas Front.
Reminds me of another similar story that I found on UA-cam, the video shows a bot infestation on 2fort so everyone went engi and build a fotress, dodge the bullets, got the Intel, taunt the ever living crap out of the bots, and won
Incredible animation, I really enjoyed scout using all of the tools at his disposal to take all of the snipers down. Really shows how even if scout acts like a moron most of the time, he is still a merc, and a damn good one at that. The helicopter scenes were amazing and really brought a new flavor of death and destruction and is a unique way to introduce the heavy as a true killing machine. Keep up the amazing work!
I want to think that this video implies a lore where RED started to manufacture aimbots to win the Gravel Wars against BLU and now BLU is on a campaign to destroy every aimbot facility RED owns.
bro, words cannot express how much i love this. its like those videos made by that youtuber that presents herself as a woman with green hair, forgot the name, the only video i remember was 'meet the white spy' or smth. its so good and you basically replicate that, oh my goodness i love it. keep it going man!
I hope you don't mind the comparison: You have your own style of animating and I noticed some Crash Maul vibes on it and I mean it in a good way. An awesome action-packed sfm! *Spoilers*: I really enjoyed the helicopter part, made things much more exciting! Would love to see more! :)
Oh wow, I did not expect to see you here! I'm a big fan of your voice acting, especially as the big bad boss in Like White on Spy. Although I am nowhere near as good as Crash Maul, I am still striving to improve my skills and hopefully mimic a fraction of what he can do someday. Thank you for your kind words 🙏
@@Enigmaballz Oh, thank you! I'm happy that my voice-acting is enjoyable :) You're definitely on the right path, plus the fact that this took you 2 years means you've improved since then. P.S if you ever need voice-acting I'd be more than happy to help!
It's a very messy mixture of ragdoll recordings, stock death sequences, and hand animation. I did the ragdoll recordings using SFM's built-in TF2. The stock death sequences were mostly Sniper headshot death animations. Finally, I blended the two together with hand animation to make it look a little more realistic.
3:35 Predator-1: Attention there is a big explosion in the center of the red base. Commander of the Blues: Great blue, the commander of the reds remains and I have a feeling that they have just started.
This is beautiful... I love me the rare Gmod or SFM movie that makes Scout a badass and not the Punching Bag character for everyone else to pick on or physically lash out on. So sick of that crap. With a character as fast as Scout, that makes him perfect for fast-paced Action films like this.
Danm , so not gonna lie This Scout was badass when he faced off against a horde of Aimbots, well not nearly the same level as the Epic scout from the Crash Maul but still badass though
My man, you HAVE to continue this series. The animation is banger, that part with Heavy in the helicopter clutching, and that cliffhanger had no reason to go that hard
Bro, you almost have a(n) similar/identical animation style like Crash Maul… And I actually like that. Brings back memories from _“Rise of the Epic Scout”_ and _”Meet the Rabid taming Engineer”_
I'm someone who's recently been trying to get into tf2 (I don't really play fps's, but I love everything about tf2 from the story to the gameplay), the bot situation has been devastating on me. It really makes it difficult to learn the game when every casual match is filled to the brim with bots. It's like expecting someone to learn how to climb a tree, but you shoot them in the fucking head everytime they leave spawn.
A tip I heard about is if you turn around and look down, the bots won't be able to shoot you because they are programmed only to shoot the head. It's weird, and I can't really explain it. Might as well be worth a shot. (Pun not intended)
My condolences man, if there's anything I can recommend it would be community servers. The skill floor there is a lot higher, but if you're itching to play then try uncletopia or something.
Always enjoy seeing some amazing Action-focused SFM for TF2. And this is definitely a great one, it's got a style reminiscent of Crash Maul but has it's own ideas that I really enjoyed.
you could make a team fortress 2 animation as if it were a 2010 animation, I liked that time of the sfm animations they were quite simple with only using the voices of the characters or putting texts on the screen talking together about some subject that was relevant to the time .
Being able to pick up other ally's weapons even as other classes would be a neat game mode. It's balanced because you need to find them on the field unless you have a friend who can kill bind and give it to you. Then in that case you can make the match a death match where player's die permanently until the next round. Idk, but a pretty neat idea.
4:10 : the dude that cheats himself and has bought bot Immunity (yes... yes these people exist - no, hedidn't get kicked by his team untill the bots took over...)
@@Dedprotectr I'm not sure that's how it works as you need to know how the bots communicate. I don't think that's public knowledge and probably different for every bot hoster... On the other hand I have actually met people who bought immunity ingame...
Even though I don't play TF2 anymore, but I still play fps games, and the way scout goes against the sniper bot army is exactly what I feel like every time I successfully flank a full team of snipers using wise movements
An interesting fact, Since I'm a zombie mode fan and a TF2 fan at the same time, I reviewed the fragment where the helicopter flies and heai shoots, very similar to Viper 1-2, where we also shoot zombies from a minigun in a helicopter in zombie mode, cool done
I see a lot of inspiration taken from Crash Maul in terms of animation style and camera work, which you should be proud of because not many people can tackle this style! The one thing I immediately noticed tho, is the lack of custom lighting. You pretty much used the default daylight on the map which is alright, but things like firing a gun, explosions, and being on fire radiates lighting which wasn't present here, so I hope you can improve on that :D
Really neat animation! I don't know much about SFM, so the only advice I can give would be to go for some more interesting music choices. Picking the right songs is tough when you want to remain monetized, but it's absolutely worth taking the time to look for appropriately fitting music as it can add a lot to an animation. Besides that, great job! And best of luck with your future videos.

My condolences man, if there's anything I can recommend it would be community servers. The skill floor there is a lot higher, but if you're itching to play then try uncletopia or something.
Always enjoy seeing some amazing Action-focused SFM for TF2. And this is definitely a great one, it's got a style reminiscent of Crash Maul but has it's own ideas that I really enjoyed.
ive always wanted to make an animation like this of 1 character taking on all the odds, looks amazing, you're an inspiration
The helicopter was so out of left field, it was hilarious!
0:53 this part has meme potential
I liked the idea of carrying the bomb through the air. Imagine this like a gamemode
you could make a team fortress 2 animation as if it were a 2010 animation, I liked that time of the sfm animations they were quite simple with only using the voices of the characters or putting texts on the screen talking together about some subject that was relevant to the time .
Smipers: *WHY WON'T YOU DIE!?*
Heavy with the free bird theme behind him: **I AM BULLET PROOOOOOOOFFFFFF!!!!!!!**
This feels like somewhat connected to The Rise of The Epic Scout series, given the fact he's a Blu Scout.
holy shit this was badass this should be the saxxy winner of 2023
2:29 shit just went 0 to a hundred real fuking fast
HELICOPTER HELICOPTER
The gun poses are awesome and I love the detail of nuts and bolts spilling out of the aimbots when they're shot, very good job!
Now, this is refreshing SFM great work!
I'm glad people still make these, nice work :)
0:18 That an Epic Scout reference?
sure it is
Duuuude, you got damn right.
god damn right
He awakens the epic scout spirit within him.
What happens if it is him🤯
This is to honor those who survived the aimbot crisis of 2020-2022
This guy made a bot show case 2 years ago, he was one of the ring leaders
survived? man it’s still happening
Holy hell scouts posing during action scenes felt so friggin dynamic, Fantastic work!
OMG! That scout was giving me some awesome deja vu of "Rise of the Epic Scout"!
Awesome man, good job.
This is heavily underrated for someone who has 4k subs
Bro deserves more subs
These are the heroes we need, and the heroes we deserve
Being able to pick up other ally's weapons even as other classes would be a neat game mode. It's balanced because you need to find them on the field unless you have a friend who can kill bind and give it to you. Then in that case you can make the match a death match where player's die permanently until the next round. Idk, but a pretty neat idea.
spy with a huntsman
scout with a phlogistinator
heavy with two shotguns
how do you have so little views?? this is amazing!
*0:17** Epic Scout Reference Moment.*
4:10 : the dude that cheats himself and has bought bot Immunity
(yes... yes these people exist - no, hedidn't get kicked by his team untill the bots took over...)
Realistically, if you're cheating yourself. You can actually use cheats to tell the bots you're one of them, even without actually using the cheat
@@Dedprotectr I'm not sure that's how it works as you need to know how the bots communicate. I don't think that's public knowledge and probably different for every bot hoster... On the other hand I have actually met people who bought immunity ingame...
imagine if a scout main actually did this in tf2
okay this SFM is really good
Animation improvement 💯
I can’t say anything anybody hasn’t already said
This is simply excellent.
3:29 now that's taking out the trash!
With a big boom boom
1:03 fucking RANGED PARRY
Yep
Really good animation!
0:01 that cso theme bring back my childhood🥲
Ah yes rich kid giving away legendary weapons.... good old times
@@TaktyczneMleko yup,good old time🥲
@@TaktyczneMlekoThere is nothing like that in the video though??
2:58 Pilot: Tim Blue, Predator-1 has flown out, wait for the evacuation point at 1;30 minutes.
this is giving the rise of the epic scout vibes
Glad to hear the music from Counter Strike Extreme lols
when bots invade a community server:
Even though I don't play TF2 anymore, but I still play fps games, and the way scout goes against the sniper bot army is exactly what I feel like every time I successfully flank a full team of snipers using wise movements
An interesting fact, Since I'm a zombie mode fan and a TF2 fan at the same time, I reviewed the fragment where the helicopter flies and heai shoots, very similar to Viper 1-2, where we also shoot zombies from a minigun in a helicopter in zombie mode, cool done
scout gaming
This was honestly AWESOME
Splendid job!
This is the best sfm animation
I see a lot of inspiration taken from Crash Maul in terms of animation style and camera work, which you should be proud of because not many people can tackle this style! The one thing I immediately noticed tho, is the lack of custom lighting. You pretty much used the default daylight on the map which is alright, but things like firing a gun, explosions, and being on fire radiates lighting which wasn't present here, so I hope you can improve on that :D
Thank you for the feedback :)

great video😁😁😁
This felt like a spiritual successor to rise of the epic scout, well done
The scout turned into
"The epic scout"
The ending has a Westworld reset feel
Really neat animation! I don't know much about SFM, so the only advice I can give would be to go for some more interesting music choices. Picking the right songs is tough when you want to remain monetized, but it's absolutely worth taking the time to look for appropriately fitting music as it can add a lot to an animation. Besides that, great job! And best of luck with your future videos.
Thanks for the feedback, appreciated!
3:27 ain't no way he managed to get the helicopter THAT close without jamming the blades with the environment.... 💀
You’re not up against a team of Sniper mains anymore. Those things are human sentries.
Alternate ending: Scout got sniped 2 seconds after the video starts
bro did a close air support 02:42
1:52 Karl Fairburne!?
Wtflip is DAT?
