Talk:Team Captain

Dat Image

• ...needs changing. It only shows the front of the hat. Be kind of useful to show the back of it?Fyahweather 06:01, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

 Nope maggosh 06:03, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

The front is where the action is. Just a Gigolo - (talk) 07:01, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

...aand the image is changed anyway. A-ha!Fyahweather 02:01, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Just throwing this out here, but what if the pic was the Heavy in the "YES! YES!" pose?

Tables

The Team Captain hat has two tables underneath. The Hat template and the Replay Update table. Should the Soldier, Medic, and Heavy templates be shown? Fyahweather 07:39, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

That may be overkill, but I'd have to see it first. Just a Gigolo - (talk) 08:46, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

About it being on the Medic

I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of this, but this is kind of an iffy thing to add to trivia. On Medic it looks like a Nazi officer's Peaked cap. Yes the original intention was clearly for it to be M. Bison's cap, but there have been many community made peaked caps for medic with this in mind, with it's color changes for Medic this seems especially significant. But like I said, it's a bit iffy.

Well usually items refer to one thing specifically if any reference, so having a second reference would be really pushing it. - Lexar - talk 11:47, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

The Medic wasn't a Nazi, Valve has been over this. Just a Gigolo - (talk) 11:50, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

About Valve "being over this" could you give some citation on that? And what about the Mountain cap, a hat worn by the Wehrmacht and SS during WWII? And even if he wasn't a nazi so what? He also wasn't a plague doctor. CidTheNinja 11:56, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

both your points are valid, yes valve did say he wasn't a former nazi and yes the main point about him not being such and such BUT at the moment the cap already has one major reference as seen in the trivia section. Adding something about it being a nazi cap would be cutting it thin as it already has a major reference. In the end, its not really worth adding when you think about it. - Lexar - talk 12:00, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

As the creator of the hat I will say the following: The Medic isn't a Nazi and this wasn't meant to be a nazi hat. If I really wanted this to be a nazi hat I would've actually made it resemble one [1], made it black, made the emblem a skull and add SS pins all over it, but I didn't. It's just an officer hat signifying the importance of the Medic as the driving power in the team, nothing more, nothing less. Daimao 16:56, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

It seems I've unintentionally made I a lot of people mad about this, simply pointing out what I know more than half of the people who see this hat on Medic are going to be thinking. As of now it's turned into a discussion of whether or not Medic is a nazi. If this is what the discussion is going to be about forget it. Oh, and I never did get any citation on Valve's official statement. Though Daimao, now I'm a bit curious since I just read your statement, didn't you already make a Schirmmütze for Medic?

Crafting this hat

Now this hat's not an all-class hat, but it's not a one-class hat either. Has anyone been able to confirm if this hat can be crafted with the Class-specific Hat blueprint? --Onyyx 12:23, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

There is a chance to obtain this hat when using a Soldier token, a Heavy token, or a Medic token. I have a hat trading friend who confirmed it. Fyahweather 02:51, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Different model

Where would I note in the article that the soldier's version has a modified shade that covers his eyes? Guybrush20X6 16:27, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

You don't. Problem, practical, solved. maggosh 16:31, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

I never noticed that his shade is modified, but it doesn't really need mentioned. Just a Gigolo - (talk) 16:40, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Quote

I wouldn't really want to change it without any discussion, seeing as it is a good quote, but does anyone else agree that this quote would be absolutely perfect for this page?

Maybe it would say, "Heavy upon obtain this hat." or "Heavy upon witnessing his opponent's defeat"? CidTheNinja 23:26, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
