Engineer main here. A lot of these sentry places are around corners or in close quarters places, where enemies can get close to the sentry gun without the sentry even being able to target the enemy until they are right on top of the sentry. Good sentry gun placement not only relies on covering multiple angles of possible entry at (relative) arms length, but also includes a teamwork element. A demoknight charging at a sentry from close range with no one around to shoot the demoman may result in the sentry’s death, but combine the sentry with an engineer, or really any class that can deal knockback, and that demoknight is as good as dead. A sentry is not designed to operate alone. It’s designed to operate as a punisher for overextending players in the backlines.

15:00 They didn't really execute this idea well on a lot of maps. Dustbowl is a notoriously good example of doing exactly the thing Valve tried to prevent: When I feel powerless as a Scout on Dustbowl, it's not because I can improve and just need to play better, it's because I'm on the losing team fighting a lost battle with a class that statistically cannot win against 3 Engineers holding last. I had countless situations on Dustbowl where I'd do exactly what you said: Pick Demo, use Stickyjumper, propel myself to the front, suicide bomb a whole Sentry nest with 4 pills, repeat until nest is gone, switch back to the class I ACTUALLY want to play. I don't think a single Engineer counters anyone. A single Engineer can be picked off and bullied at any time in the game. It's when those Engis unionize and get a whole nest AND Pybros AND Heavies covering them that you start to feel the impact of how bad a class can be and usually it's entirely related to the type of map you play on. This would never happen on Thundermountain. You'd never be in a situation on Thundermountain that a non-soldier non-demo class couldn't try to tackle, whereas on Dustbowl you feel exclusively forced to use those classes because of the tight corridors and fighting spaces that allow you to just brainlessly spam explosives around every corner to destroy Sentries before they get to shoot back.

As someone who's played since 2008, and used to main engie - even before we could move sentries - I can say that one thing has never changed about sentries: Placement is EVERYTHING, and timing is second only to placement. If you place a sentry in the right spot, it really isn't so easy to take out (even unattended) - as long as there aren't any really good demomen or spies playing. If placed right, only a demoman, spy, or any ubered character will be able to take it down without assistance. And, if attended by the team, it becomes a pretty dangerous tool. Noob engineers almost never know where to place their sentries. But once someone gets a good feel for a map, and knows how to properly use the rescue ranger and wrangler and pair those with the right wrench for the situation, the engie basically just won't die, ever. The sentry will stay up and the team will almost always win as long as the engie doesn't do anything risky and as long as the team knows how to counter multiple ubers at once. And then there's timing - if you're against a well coordinated team and they're nowhere to be seen, and it's about 1 minute to the end of the game, you can deny a pump push by moving your sentry at the right time to the right place. Like, you can just straight-up solo deny them with no hope left of winning simply because there won't be enough time to touch point by the time they handle the sentry and soft, slow scouts who bonked past the sentry just run into all the heavies, medics, and soldiers. The beauty of TF2 is it really is a team game because even the classes that *could* be hopelessly overpowered when played by a skilled player are manageable if people on the other team are willing to play to win rather than just uselessly dying as their favorite class all game.

13:22 SPY HAS A GUN

13:58 you can still get flare crits and axetinguisher boosts on DDS snipers but its very precise. Hilarious when you pull it off though.

3:04 I would never! I'm at school, not work.

The one defence I'll give to being forced to switch to deal with sentries is that, at least there are multiple options to handle the situation. DH soldier, Spy, Uber medic, Demo. It's hard to totally remove this aspect of gameplay from a class based, team based game.

I never really struggle to evade the sentry guns closing the distance. I played a lot of Call of Duty back in the day and the killstreak sentry guns in that game function almost the same, you wait until they rotate away from you and then run in behind them before the turret tracks on to you. Its a really fun thing to pull off when theres explosions going off and body parts and bullets flying around.

12:21 Archimedes cameo

Almost didnt realise that the subtitles werent from the video. Huge props for adding subtitles that are this detailed.

Valve have sentry guns in no less than 5 of their games (TF2, Portal, Half life series, Alien Swarm) and they're always super well designed. They seem to have a fascination with them, which is understandable because it's always a fun weapon.

That quote from Robin Walker is so interesting when you look at it through the lens of Medic. The class that everyone wants but nobody wants to play.

"The game's developers didn't want to strong-arm players into playing classes that they didn't feel like playing" is a funny quote when you look at medic.

14:44 I mean, TF2 still has this problem with the medic class. It's not as bad because Medic is sorta fun to play. But if your team doesn't have a medic the game is pretty much over.

1:06 the sentry was already really low

Great video! I've considered making a video going over the various specific interactions Pyro's have with sentries because of this video, its given me several ideas since on a very fundamental level, Demoknights and Pyros behave rather similarly.

"We didn't want to force players to make those kinds of decisions." Medic: "Allow me to introduce myself!"

I didn't even know I had subtitles on I just assumed they were part of the video because they look so amazing! Awesome work.

13:36 I still think Pyro vs Spy is still way too one-sided. Also Pyro vs Demoknight.

Spy has a gun. (Also, Pyro vs booties Demo is as one-sided as Loch-n-load Demo vs Pyro. You don't need to prove you're a Soldier main by bitching and moaning and begging for a crutch against your only bad match-up and just deal with them like every other class.)

@@btf_flotsam478 @btf_flotsam478 I'm not the one whining about it, I'm just pointing out the few exceptions in the argument that all classes can fight each other to a reasonable degree. Yes spy has a gun, but you aren't gonna use it in a 1v1 vs Pyro unless you are going gunspy. The gun is a last resort, not a solution, or cleanup after a winning teamfight. You aren't going to go shooting at the Pyro every time before you move in to backstab, since that would drop your disguise and reveal you and now everyone is shooting at you. There isn't anything you can really do about Pyro as Spy, and trying to play around him will stop you from doing the things you need to do as Spy, and at that point it's better to just switch classes Also I'm not a soldier main (???)

@@ironencepersonal9634 Spy always has a gun. There's no reason why you can't just react to a paranoid Pyro by either picking your fights or (if forced) go gunspy/etc. Spy is _always_ about picking your fights.

Fun fact: in team fortress classic, there is something demo can do that is unique. He can plant a bomb that gives the player the option to choose a fuse time. Once said bomb is placed, it will explode and do heavy damage once the fuse is up. Honestly it wasn't very practical since you couldn't prematurely detonate it if need be and there was a cool down on it so it couldn't be spammed, so your only option to get kills with it would be to place it somewhere where you'd expect someone to be by the time it blows up. A more modern rendition of this comes from tf2 classic in the form of the demoman's dynamite pack, which has a set fuse time every time it is deployed, though it can be thrown further similar to how stickies can be lobbed further by holding down the mouse. It consists of a primary explosion followed by multiple smaller ones, which are caused by the dynamite bundle breaking apart into multiple sticks. It can be deactivated by an enemy engineer hitting it with his wrench

Solar when he sees a sentry gun: "Finally, a worthy challenge, my trimping this match will be legendary!"

9:17 In my 7000 hours of TF2, I of course knew about the cursed Sentry Dance™ technique for a long while after seeing others do it, but in all my time I’ve never thought that crouching was actually almost as good as just jumping on top and circling. New forbidden strat acquired, I suppose better late than never…

10:28 crazy dunk

2fort. I'm in sewers. I'm demoknight. I charged towards the health pack just to meet a sentry left alone. I somehow took it down by turning around it I didn't know the existence of that sentry My heart was going crazy after that

Very nice video! Also, I like the subtitles! They're layered!

13:06 flats said something about this that i agree with There is no skill in winning solely because you picked the "correct" option. You can train a parrot, a monkey, a *spider* to see X character, and click on Y character And overwatch 2 feels so bad because it's being choke holded by counterswap meta. I really wish i could play tf2 instead, but the only computer i have _somehow_ runs the game worse than your old engie days. So, I'm stuck playing ow on console..

Sounds like a settings issue(or your pc really cant handle programs that arnt 64 bit as of thr time you made the comment) also in general tf2 default settings unlike 99% of games dont suit your pc well

12:30 what gets me about this meme is they needed Bastion (my main) super hard in OW2, when it’s main counter is shields and teamwork Like, it’s not hard for a coordinated team to take out a Bastion but people still gave me shit for using it But it doesn’t really matter since I’m not playing OW2 at all anyways

Engineers: *exist* SolarLight: Imma bout to end this man's whole career.

I really love those custom captions you put on the vid!

2:52 basically how it fells to fight against a demoknight lol

13:44 Did you forget that pyro has a shotgun? That is prob the why to use shotgun with pyro. Just like with soldier using shotgun to not get his own rocket on his face. TF2 is more a counter back weapons than a counter back classes it self. Still is really dumb a weapon to counter a class, but, that class prob has a weapon to counter the weapon from the other class.

really cool stylized subtitles genuinely have never seen those before

Forgot I had captions on and thought youd made those yourself, I love seeing people use the captions feature properly

Holy Irish accent around 0:15

3:13 i can't escape it

11:31 I'm betting this will be the most replayed part of the video.

occasionally on hoovy i'd pull out the bumper car taunt, practically any slope seems to send the sentry's bullets flying over your head

11:38 to get sponsorship money from warthunder, duh.

Love how you did the captions for the video
