Wait there's a sniper statue? since when.
[QUOTE=Damoman;38325164][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sXavOTwiTM[/media] Meh[/QUOTE] Oh cool so Team Strike: Fortress Offensive is already up for preordering?
I am annoyed at how the CTF hud is just going absolutely haywire throughout the entire skit. Just because the flags are in the field and not being carried doesn't mean they're doing loop-de-loops around this 1 character. Also how his melee is in his secondary slot instead of tertiary. Details.
I hate Robot Chicken in general, so it's not exactly world-shattering that I hate this as well. Still though, how awful. It's nothing to do with my liking for TF2, it's just a shitty joke, shoved into a totally unneccessary context. They went out of their way to communicate: [I]this is team fortress 2.[/I] [I]This skit is about team fortress 2.[/I] It was a huge, pointless distraction to deliver a joke that could (but shouldn't) have been made in basically any other form. Nobody actually cares if the Medic had the wrong gun, but it's pretty telling that they went through the trouble of making the puppet, but couldn't be bothered to give him a firehose or something. I'm gonna guess that Sniper statue was the real reason that bit happened in the first place. The whole thing seemed like their objective wasn't so much "be funny" as it was "get 'robot chicken tf2' trending on twitter"

Maybe Robot Chicken was parodying it. No hats, making it look more like a modern shooter etc. Why do ya think in some of their vids there is a moment where you childhood cartoon has been crushed once ya see a unexpected moment?
Is the map supposed to be from TFC or from CS?
You can see a terrorist from CS in the right window at around 0:13
[QUOTE=DrCactus;38330422]You can see a terrorist from CS in the right window at around 0:13[/QUOTE]Clearly just a spy with a bigger gun.

I'll post what I posted in the Media Thread [QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;38325799]I see it as this. Either they have never played the game before and did the Pyro Hat thing just to grab some attention. Or they love the game, but their viewer base is more into modern Triple A games and have never heard of TF2 before, so gotta make the nerd in actual war joke. Because a regular TF2 Joke would go over their heads.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;38331323]I'll post what I posted in the Media Thread[/QUOTE] They've made blatantly obscure skits before and lampshaded the fact that they're obscure within the context of the skit. Ex: "Oh my god, someone actually remembered this movie and wrote a parody sketch about it!" They can get away with obscurity just fine. However, instead of going for obscurity, they dumbed it down to hardly even resemble what it's parodying.

Why does the medic in the skit remind me so much of Stephen Colbert?

They did the Parappa the Rappa skit pretty well, just a shame about this one.
Why did the inhaler suddenly appear in a fourth slot.

That was really underwhelming....

I thought everyone already crafted their RCH's, personally I'd rather have an untradeable Brigade Helm with my name on it than an ugly all class hat.

Considering it's their thing, it would have been a fairly obvious easter egg opportunity.
lol at the robot chicken video, i had to watch it several times over

[QUOTE=iRunner;38353810]By the way, has anyone watched this yet? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNzJe2Vbwy4[/media][/QUOTE] Wow that was accurate... Laughed, top show.
[QUOTE=iRunner;38353810][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNzJe2Vbwy4[/media][/QUOTE] That's should be the original. [QUOTE=TectoImprov;38346031]I thought everyone already crafted their RCH's, personally I'd rather have an untradeable Brigade Helm with my name on it than an ugly all class hat.[/QUOTE] Well I'm kinda like that hat, so don't crafted it yet. I think there's more people in the world who enjoyed it.
I'm glad I watched the "edited" version, and not the actual thing. Now I know how horrible the actual thing is without seeing it first-hand.
