Innan den släpptes

I mars 2010 avslöjade Robin Walker i en intervju med KritzKast Podcast att Meet the Pyro kommer låta folk se genom Pyros ögon.

I ett blogginlägg som berättade om kommande händelser i spelet, konfirmerade TF2 teamet att Meet the Pyro skulle släppas någon gång 2012, och släppte också en bild från videon.

Ett kort klipp av Meet the Pyro visades i Valves video "Perpetual Testing Initiative", visande delen av videon som bilden som de släppte tidigare hörde till.

På Team Fortress hemsida var detta postat på den 22 Juni 2012: Mmmmph mmmmph, mmmmm mmmmmp mmmmmph. Mmmmmph mpm! Mmmmmph mph mm! Hm mmmmmph, hmmmmph mm mmmmmph mmmmmph! Detta var senare översatt som morse-kod till "Måndag" , som var dagen då Pyromania startade.

Video transkript

Transkript

The term "Pyro" below refers to the protagonist, the RED Pyro. ["Meet the Pyro" text appears, then is burned away to reveal the feet of the Pyro, Fire Axe in hand, walking over a pair of glasses towards the camera. Dreams of Cruelty begins playing.] [Cut to a small room. The RED Heavy is seen almost completely in silhouette.] Heavy: I fear no man. But that... thing... it scares me. [Cut to a view behind the Pyro's right shoulder. A BLU Engineer shuts a door before a BLU Scout can join him inside. The Scout pulls desperately on the handle. Cut again to the interview room. This time it is the RED Scout in silhouette.] Scout: No, I... I ain't, I ain't talking about that freak. All right? [Worried, he tries to detach the lavalier microphone from his shirt. He sits upright in chair, in near panic.] Scout: He's not here, is she? [Scout continues to tug as he stands and walks toward the camera, knocking it over.] Scout: How do I get this f***ing thing off?! [Cut to Pyro kicking down the door into the BLU team's room, Flame Thrower ready. Fade back to the interview room, this time with the RED Spy.] Spy: One shudders to imagine what inhuman thoughts lie behind that mask... [Cut to Pyro firing his Flame Thrower, then to a wider shot, showing an entire wooden town in flames.] Spy: ...what dreams of chronic and sustained cruelty. [Cut to a front view of the Pyro, zooming rapidly into the blackness of one of his eyepieces. There is the sound of the Pyro's breathing and a single white spot which zooms forward and splits into a binocular view. When these focus, it shows a psychedelic dreamscape. As Do You Believe In Magic? begins playing, the view from the Pyro's eyes shows colorful hills, lollipops, floating cats and quaint villages. The Pyro's flame thrower appears in his hands as an unusually-shaped brass instrument, spraying a rainbow-coloured mist over ground, causing colourful flowers to spring from the lawn in front of him. The Pyro laughs. Within this dreamscape, BLU characters appear as chubby little cherubs and sound like babies. As a BLU Heavy appears and bounces on the ground, the Pyro grabs a lollipop and cheers. The two converge seemingly happily. While the Pyro in the dreamscape shoves the lollipop in the Heavy's mouth, in reality he's chopping the Heavy with the Fire Axe. Then a BLU Scout appears. The Pyro blows bubbles in his face while in reality, he shoots the Scout with the Scorch Shot, knocking him back. In the dreamscape, a BLU Medic appears out of a box, and Pyro closes the box on him. In reality, Pyro traps the BLU Medic in a shed by barring the door with his axe.] Medic: No! [Pyro bathes the shed and the Medic in flames, while in the dreamscape, the Pyro continues to shoot streams of rainbow mist from his weapon. As he passes, the Balloonicorn appears, and the BLU Engineer and Spy ride it. The BLU cherubs salute and celebrate the Pyro as he leaves while in reality...] Demoman: I'm burning! [A BLU Soldier and Scout flee while a BLU Sniper crashes out of a second-story window to the ground. He crawls over to the ankle of a person nearby. The sound of a Sentry being destroyed in the distance is heard.] Sniper: Help! [The BLU Sniper is holding the Pyro's ankle. The Pyro looks down and shoots his flame thrower. The Sniper can be heard screaming as the view zooms in on his mask, flames reflecting off the eyepieces as the Pyro tilts his head.] [Ending title card appears and accompanying music plays] [Cut back to the dreamscape, where the Pyro happily walks away into the sunset. The view zooms out and passes through the burnt, gaping hole in the a stomach of a BLU Soldier. The view transitions back to reality as the Soldier clutches his smouldering innards for a moment and then falls over with a stifled groan. The Pyro continues to walk away into the sunset, whistling to Do You Believe In Magic? as the town begins to collapse from the inferno, the streets littered with charred BLU corpses. Fade to black.]

Kuriosa

• Titelkortet visar "COPYRIGHT LOLOLOL" i det nedre högra hörnet, ett återkommade skämt genom Möt Laget videorna.
• Tändsticksasken på titelkortet har en bild på Ballonghörningen på sig, som man sedan får se senare i videon.
• Låten som spelas när man får se väärlden genom Pyros ögon heter Do You Believe in Magic av The Lovin' Spoonful. Medans Pyro går iväg från den brinnande staden kan man hör Pyro vistla på denna låt.
• Demoman bär sin gamla "dynamit-pinne" klass-emblem.
• Enhörningen sedd genom Pyros ögon var tillagd till Valve-affären som en uppblåsbar ballong under namnet "Inflatable Balloonicorn", och som ett i-spelet objekt.
• Enligt transkriptet till den officiella videon, säger RED Spanare, "He's not here, is she?" ("Han är väl inte här, är hon?"). Detta ger Valves långa skämt att inte avslöja Pyros kön längre liv.
• Videon var uppladdad två gånger till den officiella Team Fortress 2 kanalen. Den andra versionen kan man endast komma åt genom Adult Swim's hemsida.
  • I den andra versionen är RED Spions cigarett otänd.
