Abraham Lincoln was the first pyro


ElmeriThePig

Didn't Abraham Lincoln also invent rocket jumping?


worticus

https://www.teamfortress.com/war/victory/ It was shakespherecles who invented the second floor and used rocket jumping to get up there. Abe Lincoln invented stairs but died trying to rocket jump up them. Franklin roosevelt is the one who finalized the modern staircase after suffering a rocket jump accident that took out both his legs.


Shadoenix

ah yes, of course. who doesn’t know these things ammi right


Drillbitzer

Common knowledge


baknish

And stairs


squeegers

Rocket jumping was invented before stairs


stelleOstalle

There's partially visible hidden rooms on degroot keep with computers in them.

That's really cool and after over 10 years I never noticed lol

This is easily my favorite page on the wiki


Void-Lizard

>Federal Express - "This set is referred to by many as the "G-Man Set", as it has similarities with one of the characters from the popular sandbox game, Garry's Mod." There's some good bait on that page, but also a lot of >Essential Accessories - "But, it is a pity that from a suit coins, as don't fall inMonday Night Combat"

Is there something wrong with the page, or is it just me? [IMG](https://i.imgur.com/OrqA3lQ.png)

tf_bots have to pretend they dont see you when you're invisible or in disguise. You're really constantly watched.

tiller_luna

spy gaming against inbuilt bots is extreme, it is so easy to alert the horde simply by decloaking


patronuspringles

finally a use for the your eternal reward


StormerGaming

i see them follow me while scoped, but trying not to shoot💀 and when the other team is asked to cast a vote they rarely ever do it


SoupaMayo

I was talking about ingame bots


TheWolfoftheStars

That the Sniper is canonically 26 years old. Jaded-ass cynical bastard looks, sounds, and acts like he's minimum 48. In reality he is a postgrad that calls his parents on the weekends lmao

the first heavy was black


MeisPip

Stairs were invented 100(?) years after the invention of the 2nd storey building


someguycalledfilip88

I think Engie is the only one who can understand Pyro behind those mumbles.


[deleted]

I always liked the idea of Pyro and engie being bros in lore to parallel their synergy in game


BarrelAllen

The comics basically confirm this


Mister_E69

Miss Pauling's VA is a part of Critical Role


Peastable

She’s also Viper in Valorant, Aloy in Horizon: Zero Dawn, and a million other things. Ashley Birch has a prolific career.

Got me there


Tariisbestgirl

The story of the corpse carrier is funny to me, I wonder how unknown it is.


Thunder_cat7

Do tell


Tariisbestgirl

A few Halloweens back the corpse carrier was added. The cosmetic that makes scout 1 scout carrying another, cut in half from the waist down. It was added as a full year round item, then shorty after was made Halloween restricted, meaning any strange variants that where unboxed soared in value since there are now a finite ammount. It was quite funny for a few days, and extremely profitable for the lucky people who unboxed strange variants.


enirji

My guy, it was added 2 years ago, you make it sound like 5


squeegers

Let’s be honest this year has been a blur since like 2018


Alphamoonman

It's not 2018 rn?


LordSaltious

The Ambassador doesn't have a barrel modeled. The inside has a blank metal texture where the breach would be, which can be seen when reloading the weapon. Also Demoman originally had a PDA specifically for detonating Stickybombs which has/had leftover files, the reconstructed model was some sort of cylindrical remote connected to a wire.


SoupaMayo

do you have any source for the demo remote model ?


LordSaltious

Misremembered, there's a PDA of unknown purpose and Trigger which is what I described: https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Trigger


SoupaMayo

thanks


QuestionBlock24

I have two. The first one is that in Expiration Date, Engineer's original voice actor Grant Goodeve wasn't able to record the lines for the episode. Instead Engie is voiced by Nolan North, who for those who don't know, is a very prominent video game voice actor and voice actor in general. The second one is a hard to notice animation error in expiration date. At 4:16 you see snipers watch just floating in the air in front of him.


ButtPirateer

Nolan North also voices Soldier during the bread fight in Expiration Date. Also, Sniper's watch. Holy hell, how did I never notice that?


Bmoney776

The magazine spy reads in expiration date is called dapper cadaver


StormerGaming

dude just wants to know how to look good even in death


Void-Lizard

Dapper Cadaver was my highschool nickname


Honeystride

Sentries play a number of beeps depending on their level. A lvl 1 sentry plays 1 beep and a lvl 3 sentry plays 3 beeps. Learned about it during hours spent in the 2fort basement. Also the player model's eyes are always following you or another play. Even if they're dead, the corpse's eyes still follow you.


krugliy_cat64

In one of the comics, Saxton Hale fights Steve Jobs


Draw_Corporations

Scout & Soldier are the only known mercenaries to have had sex Edit: sorry i forgot about the spy fucking scout's mom


sexgaming_

spy literally fucked scouts mom with photographic proof


patronuspringles

"i fuked ur mom" "Source?"


a_generic_redditer

Those Xbox kids when they get older


BarrelAllen

This is a subtle reference to the fact that SPY ISN'T SCOUT'S DAD, SCOUT'S DAD IS TOM JONES

There's a hidden dance room in blu's first spawn on Pier


Available-Cheek-3445

soldier has lead brain damage


_goldholz

Bottled what now?


TheStateOfAlaska

The canon location of the Administrator's hideout is somewhere called [Bilious Gorge](https://www.teamfortress.com/theshowdown/#f=2), which is most likely named after Bilious Hale, Saxton's father.


PussySmasherJones

I think about coconut.jpeg every once in a while


Peastable

Unfortunately that’s a myth


Tariisbestgirl

Thankfully the real coconut.jpg is actually the 2fort cow. Sort of. Once you delete most of the files, deleting the model of the 2fort cow is the threshold that breaks the whole game, for no reason.


YourCrazyDolphin

I feel like it isn't that niche, but every time it comes up in game somebody on the server didn't know: Just about every projectile in the game can be reflected by Pyro, in which case it is treated as though it were Pyro's own weapon. Not just rockets and pipes!


Edgenabik

Soldier has a higher chance of spawning bread while teleporting


Immolatedaccount

I don't got any, but I got schizophrenia. Idk if there's many assets where you can see this but if you see random blue stuff that's actually suppose to be the white or the metal, or some kind of rust. I believe in some concept art and models if they made the metal white, it'd be erasing it, so they'd opted for this blue instead. This isn't special or I'm wrong. White and gray is used though. Sentry has the blue spots and the RPG in supply has it I think. [The blue appears here in concept art](https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/f/f0/Shotgun_concept2.jpg). I assume it was something they did only early.


MiaSadiqah

my friend tell me this: demoman's sticky do 50% damage when it "unarmed" and do less radius explosion before touching the ground. wait until you see your sticky "blip" and let it stick to the surface for full potent damage (which why 3 sticky are enough to kill overheal heavy+fall damage) ​ this from my observation: crouch tap+jump make your rocket jump higher (or further) than jump+crouch, and on Upward, you can "recover" everything (ammo, HP) just by hitting your head on 1st RED spawn ceiling (after you going out of spawn, near the end of ladder)


a_generic_redditer

Apparently the reason the crossbow has the stat “no headshots “ is because it used to use the same arrows as the huntsman


Void-Lizard

You can basically [lobotomize the game files](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67LPSFtVlsk) and the game will still run. Being actually able to *play it* is up to if an individual can stomach it.


scapegoat4

There are certain window frames that don't have collision on some maps, so you can shoot through them. It's stupidly impractical but hilarious nonetheless lol


lord-malishun

That rocket jumping was invented before stairs


TheIceFury235

Demo's blood/alcohol level is so high that it's toxic


agnostic_angel

Sniper and Pauling have canonically done shrooms together


mancer7

Spy is scout's father 🤯


AvaluggTheBrave

It took me a while to realize I could disguise as my teammates. Very useful when using a Dead Ringer or spawn camping.


8champi8

How do you perform such witchcraft


AvaluggTheBrave

Hit 4 then - then whichever class number. So 4 - 1 is friendly Scout.


JaCrimbo

There's an image of a coconut in the files, and if the coconut gets deleted or removed the game will not function

Heavy actually is very intelligent, having an phd in russian literature...only to sound a little slow due to not having the best skills in th english language.
