The Payload Experience [SFM]

The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Heavy happy.

"I leave Heavy at the foot of the Dustbowl! One always finds one's objective again. But Heavy teaches the higher fidelity that negates the teams and raises payloads. He too concludes that all is well. This server henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that cart, each rotted sleeper of that disused railway, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the checkpoint is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Heavy happy."

The Valve gods promised the Heavy that his update would await him on top of the hill, if he would push the cart to the very top. Not knowing, he would fail all the time.

Besides the obvious inspiration from the myth of Sisyphus, I really like that this is also how payload can feel in-game, while playing both red and blu. Playing blu, it's literally the same concept as in the short, organising a push to the final point and hoping that you're gonna reach it. For red, the metaphorical boulder is the attacking team that you have to fend off.

i once saw a heavy on upward, named sisyphus, who would only run to the cart and saying in chat "i have to push the cart." everytime they died. it was beautiful.

For him, to push the payload with full knowledge of its futility and taking joy in just the act of doing the objective itself was the ultimate rebellion against RED. One must imagine Heavy happy.
Don't ever forget what Heavy mains do for you. They'll take a bullet for you, they'll give you a sandvich when you're in need, they'll protect you and your objective till their last breath. Thank your Heavy for what they do, because someday they won't be there to save you again.

Heavy might look menacing and intimidating. I remind you all that he is a caring family man who takes his job seriously. He might be useless in certain areas, at least he is a type of man who can't back down from a fight. I always salute heavy mains.

Life is a struggle, so is playing the objective. Never stop pushing.
The very only player who really wants to play on Hightower, and exactly as the developers intended it
As a heavy main, I too must ask if I am truly happy
Putting this on a loop is probably the best experience I have gotten out of a video in a while.
It's so nice to see you make an animation of sisyphus, it fits so well into tf2 and it's even perfect with the heavy but it feels so accurate because this is how payload feels sometimes aside from it coming down which it doesn't really. This was a wonderful animation and I really liked it even though I felt kinda bad for the heavy but thank you for this.
this video is gold, i like to put it on loop, makes it more immersive, you can feel his pain, its weirdly emotional. i feel you, heavy.
Putting a new meaning to "hard carry"
Animation is pure excellence, my friend
When Heavy is pusing a cart just by himself it almost feels like a Sisyphean task(
I'd like to imagine an enemy Pyro seeing this and airblasting one of Heavy's teammates onto the cart...
The battle is over, his minigun ran out of ammo, his sandwich eaten, his team dead and gone along with the other team, all that is left is the objective and an uphill push, his friends died trying to get this cart to the end of the track, he was always the strongest, and yet when the memory of what those men died for is on the line and when his strength is most needed he falters
One must imagine Heavy pushing the cart FORWARD!!!
This is exactly what that one ramp at the end of Upward feels like
The reality kicks in for real when it’s on loop.
For a tf2 meme animation, this feels like a serious one, like those that actually portrait the emotions and insides of a game
This is how it feels the first 700 hours in tf2

one must imagine a f2p happy.
I now understand the true philosophy of Heavy (Sisyphus). It's not only winning that makes you happy, but the effort you put into reaching it. Like after a multiple planned pushes and reaching to a point. Then repeating it all over again for the next. Enjoying the trill and adrenaline, while repeating it on a different pl map. One must truly imagine Heavy happy.
This is how it feels to push upwards last, its so small yet it always rollback at the last second
if the clip started with Heavy walking up to the payload from the front before pushing it, it would be a perfect loop video we were this close to perfection (incredible animation regardless 👍)

This should be a tf2 map. A payload map with 2 checkpoints and everything but a small bit of track after the checkpoints is just an uphill slope where the cart can fall down again and when the cart reaches the end, it does roll down all the way but instead of heading back to blue base, the tracks swich, causing it to explode the first red spawn which is the main building of red. To make the map more playable, the map should be catered most to the attacking team.
one must imagine Heavy happy.
At least the cart is on rails. Cant say the same about the boulder Sisyphus must be hauling.
I had this experience trying to push the cart while my team just pushed waaaay too far forward. I kept getting killed by a demo, soldier and a medic. Another heavy appeared and sat on the cart while using the brass beast. Dude helped me push and fight back the enemies.
If heavy counted as two players on the payload, it would move faster than him

Just wait until he realizes he could just stand on the payload
“the struggle itself toward the checkpoint is enough to fill a mercs heart, one must imagine heavy happy”
When you're the only one on the objective while everyone else is trying to make frag montages.
Finally, a perfect loop

Heavy stole the source code from Valve and gave it to hackers. For this he was chained to the cart and forced to push for eternity.
