Look at me! Click to listen — The Scout on hype building

”

The Soda Popper is a primary weapon for the Scout. It is a broken Force-A-Nature repaired with several black bands, with slitted barrels and a can of Crit-a-Cola attached underneath.

The weapon offers 25% faster reloading speed and 50% faster firing speed compared to the default Scattergun. However, it restricted to loading two shots at a time, and it is incapable of delivering random critical hits.

In addition, equipping the Soda Popper places a "hype" meter on the HUD, which charges whilst the player is moving with the weapon in use. It takes approximately 5200 Hammer units of distance traveled, either through running or jumping, to fill up the hype meter. When the meter is full, all weapons will automatically deal mini-crits for 8 seconds.

Update history

June 23, 2011 Patch (Über Update)

• The Soda Popper was added to the game.

June 27, 2011 Patch

• Fixed a problem that prevented the new Scout items from being used in crafting recipes.

Bugs

• In first person view, the Scout's hand clips through the black bands of the weapon.
• The weapon only manages to ramp-up to 150% damage, unlike the other Primary weapons where they could ramp-up to 175% damage. This may be an unintentional bug, or may be part of the item but is not written in the description.
• On 4:3 resolutions, the Hype meter will overlap the objective HUD.

Trivia

• The shells appear to have the Radiation Template:W (☢) on them.
• Although a can of Crit-a-Cola is strapped to the barrel, a Bonk! Atomic Punch is required instead in the crafting recipe.
  • While coincidental, early versions of the Soda Popper had a can of Bonk! Atomic Punch strapped to the barrel.
