Meet the Spy is still king to me.

Just for that one line.

 

[Boss Doggie]

On a related note, I'm kinda disappointed you can't see babies with goggles.

Cars 2, sure.

Brave was not the best Pixar movie, but still light-years beyond the competition.

Hell no, Brave was terrible.

 

[Akibared]

Hahahaha this made my night

 

[HyperBitHero]

/v/ was having a shitstorm today, freaking out, accusing the video of being one giant My Little Pony reference.

Shit was dumb.

EDIT: Oh, looks like it's happening here too. My goodness.

It is dumb - MLP haters think anything made out of oversaturated saccharine is an MLP reference. Yes, MLP fans are actually sane in that regard.

I don't think it's very absurd considering that Gabe is a proud and public Brony.

 

[Chinner]

the video obviously isn't a reference to MLP. i mean, this is basically bronies so self-absorbed in their own egos that they have to push their dumb shit on everyone as usual, which results in everyone else freaking out.

 

[Akibared]

I didn't even think about ponies when I saw this just pyro being awesome I hate this world sometimes.

I don't know, first thing I thought of was My Little Pony and I'm not even into the show or know anything about it. Didn't Gabe even admit to liking the show?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I don't know, first thing I thought of was My Little Pony and I'm not even into the show or know anything about it. I think the whole thing has made its way into things like this. Didn't Gabe even admit to liking the show?

for the rest of us, our first thought was CANDYLAND.

 

[Dog Problems]

for the rest of us, our first thought was CANDYLAND.

That board game has become a distant memory. It's all about ponies now, apparently.

damn whippersnappers

 

[Boss Doggie]

This manner of sugary-ness is an age-old archetype, moreso than MLP or any board game.

I just realized that Do You Believe in Magic videos in YT surged in popularity.

 

[Metal-Geo]

The Rayman overworld was exactly what came to mind when we first see the Pyro's perspective. :/

 

[Jamie OD]

I didn't even think about ponies when I saw this just pyro being awesome I hate this world sometimes.

Then it is time for you to put on the goggles and spread the happiness.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Anyone knows how the item-drop system works?

I havent played TF2 since forever, but it seems now you can get some "burned" times that will, when u craft them, make one of the new Pyro-things.

I am on an achievementserver right now, but somehow I do not know how to get the items.

Is it random? Should I idle?

Or are there any other ways to get the new weapon?

 

[kever0nicas]

I havent played TF2 since the launch period, but that put the biggest damn smile on my face.

Items randomly drop. You can also craft, trade or buy them.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Items randomly drop. You can also craft, trade or buy them.

So I can just idle on a server and wait to get some items?

 

[Boss Doggie]

So I can just idle on a server and wait to get some items?

Yes.

Or just run TF2 with certain parameters via a custom shortcut.

 

[Chairmanchuck]

Yes.

Or just run TF2 with certain parameters via a custom shortcut.

Oh? Which parameters?

 

[Vitet]

I don't know if it's because I'm not too young but I always associate rainbows & lollipops with this:

 

[Soule]

Carebears brings back some very very old childhood memories. On the video, for me Meet the Spy and Medic are still my favourites but this was still awesome, I laughed out loud a couple of times but I gotta say I was disappointed they didn't unmask the pyro but at the same time I'm happy they didn't the mystery is so much more interesting.

 

[Dog Problems]

I don't know if it's because I'm not too young but I always associate rainbows & lollipops with this:

That's what I associated it with also in the past but all the My Little Pony/Brony stuff I see online has been ingrained into my mind. It's even in other games. (Diablo 3, Red Faction Armageddon)

 

[jediyoshi]

Oh? Which parameters?

I agree. I enjoyed Meet the Medic and Meet the Pyro, but for me, Meet the Spy will remain the best trailer Valve has ever released.

 

[rezuth]

Gabe does love MLP

[rouken]

Hell no, Brave was terrible.

Terrible? I don't like your opinion on movies, it was great.

 

[Robot Pants]

Yep. Sniper is second.
This one was pretty good though.

 

[Interfectum]

this was fantastic

 

[suzu]

I liked it.

It reminded me of babies, Care Bears, and My Little Pony (the old show, not the new one). lol.

 

[Bisnic]

Meet the Spy is still king to me.

Just for that one line.

What line?

"Gentlemen."?

I watched all the "Meet the..." videos yesterday after seeing the Pyro one. They're still just as good as back then. I'd watch a whole 2 hours movie of these guys.

 

[Boss Doggie]

You know, the movie really makes me want skeleton gibs for burned down enemies.

Terrible? I don't like your opinion on movies, it was great.

It's mostly due to expectations, also it's just fair to judge Pixar movies with some "standards" as Pixar fans say to themselves. But this is not the topic about it.

 

[Rebel Leader]

What line?

"Gentlemen."?
.

"no... that would be your mother" I bet

 

[Deleted member 102362]

"no... that would be your mother" I bet

"So listen up boy, or pornography starring your mother will be the second worst thing to happen to you today."

 

[Platy]

Neatly covered all three possibilities.

Heavy calls Pyro "that creature", covering the Alien/gender less theory.
Scout says "Is he here?"
Pyro-vision music: "Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart?"

As posted in the other thread, there is one possibility that is wining by a small margin :

 

[jasonng]

Close up on the pyro scared the shit out of me. Holy crap, what an amazing MTP. So we met the team, what do we do now?

 

[DrForester]

Complain about something else Valve has yet to release.

We meet the Dota 2 team. ALL OF THEM.

[The Hermit]

and then HL3...


maybe

 

[Soule]

They said they would do something of the sort. I don't know about all of them, one can dream within their lifetime that could happen at Valve's pace and that would be awesome. I'm not too encouraged by "they’re planning to release several of videos" I demand ALLLLLLLLLL but yeah I love Valve's movie/videos/'meet the' team so hopefully there's more to sate my appetite soon

Which one? There were so many!

xD

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Someone emailed Valve about alternate songs they were throwing around for the Pyroland sequence.

This song was one they told him

Tiny Tim's Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight



I actually think that song was better

So they had

Yeah, do you believe in magic?
Yeah, believe in the magic of a young girl's soul
Believe in the magic of rock and roll
Believe in the magic that can set you free
Oh, talking 'bout magic

and they considered trade it for

Just take it from me,
I'm just as free as any daughter.
I do what i like,
Just what i like,
And how i love it!
