事前情報

2011年3月、ユーザーの“Political Gamer”がワシントンはベルビューにあるValve本社を訪れ、Meet the Medicの制作を確認しました[1]。彼はそこで飛び立つとポーズを取るメディックが描かれたポスターの写真を撮りました[2]

2011年5月5日のReplay アップデートと共に公開されたコミックMeet the Directorあるページではアドミニストレーターの背後にあるコントロールパネルにMeet the Medicからの多数のスクリーンショットが映しだされていました。

2011年6月8日にTeam Fortress 2パッチがリリースされ、Valve製マップの様々な場所に鳩が追加されました。鳩は接触すると爆発を引き起こしますが、プレイヤーにダメージは与えません。2011年6月17日にアニメーションを備えた新たな鳩のモデルを加える追加パッチがリリースされました。そして同日、TF2公式ブログのページレイアウトが更新され、タイトルバナーに3羽の鳩がとまり糞を垂れていました。鳩はそれぞれ荒廃した病院空の待合室診察室隠し画像にリンクされていました。

最初の隠し画像、荒廃した病院の一部は完全にモデル化されており、公式サイト上のメディックページの背景で見ることができます。

2011年6月20日、TF2公式ブログにてMeet the Medicが確認され、6月23日にÜber アップデートとともにリリースされることが発表されました[3]TF2公式ブログのバナー上にとまっていた鳩は削除されました。

"Meet the Medic" ビデオの概要

備考

  • 隠し画像の病院はValve本社近隣、ワシントン州シアトルはビーコン・ヒルにあるパシフィック・メディカル・センターに似ています。
  • When the Demoman is fleeing the BLU Soldiers in a wheelchair, he has a bandage over the top part of his head with an eyepatch on top of the bandage. Later, when the Demoman is healed by the Medic, he rips off the bandage with the eyepatch on it to reveal another eyepatch underneath the bandage.
    • Similarly, when he is fleeing from the Soldiers in the first battlefield scene, his Stickybomb Launcher rests on his lap and is his only visible weapon. In the second battlefield scene the Grenade Launcher replaced the Stickybomb Launcher, but after an explosion sends him flying out of his wheelchair the weapon that lands in front of him is, mysteriously, the Stickybomb Launcher instead of the Grenade Launcher he was just holding.
  • Throughout the Heavy's procedure, an X-Ray of his body can be seen in the background, which shows a bomb lodged inside. The extracted bomb can be spotted in a bucket behind the Medic. This is the same bomb seen in the "Meet the Medic" title card.
  • The Heavy's Minigun can be spotted in the background of a few operating room shots, resting on its own stretcher.
  • The Medic's Overdose can be seen underneath the bucket containing the extracted bomb.
  • A heart monitoring device named "CARDIOSCAN 2000" can be seen working behind the Heavy early in the video. When his heart is destroyed, the line on the monitor goes flat. The next time it is seen, after the Medic retrieves a new heart, it resumes its old display.
  • One of the Medic's doves shares its name with "Template:W", the Greek mathematician, physicist, engineer, inventor, and astronomer.
    • Archimedes was also the name of the wizard Merlin's pet owl.
  • At 1:03, the entire contents of the fridge can be viewed: three hearts, a Sandvich, three bottles of Red Shed beer, a BLU Spy's Head (alive), a battery for his head, and an ashtray for his cigarettes.
  • The labels on the hearts at 1:04 read "Loch Ness Hamster" and "Mega Baboon" respectively. The name on the smallest heart is unreadable.
  • A mysterious woman resembling Miss Pauling can be seen through the window at 0:56 and again at 1:22.
  • In spite of the Medic believing otherwise, human ribs are actually capable of growing back when properly shortened.
  • At 2:28, the Pyro can be seen running in its humiliation pose, quickly disappearing in the black smoke on the right.
  • In the up-close scene of the Demoman fleeing the Soldiers, the Engineer and Sniper are missing from hiding behind the boulder for protection in the background.
  • At 3:24, a rocket is shown deflecting off of the invulnerable Heavy. Rockets never deflect off players in-game and simply explode without damaging the invulnerable target.
  • Despite the Quick-Fix being incapable of providing invulnerability in-game, the Medic is able to use it to make the Heavy invulnerable via Übercharge in Meet the Medic. The fourth day of the Über Update explains that the Quick-Fix's first Übercharge, seen in the video, permanently shorted out the invulnerability feature of the gun.
  • The Quick-Fix uses sounds from the Medi Gun.
  • After the Medic and the Heavy climb the pile of Soldiers, the Medic releases the Medi Gun beam, yet the Heavy is still Übercharged.
  • At 3:43, during the sliding shot of the waiting room, there is a ticket counter on the wall with ticket number 11 hanging out. With each class assigned a waiting ticket, this would mean another class is expecting an über device, this adding another instance of the ongoing tenth class jokes.
  • In the waiting room at the end of the video, the Pyro can be seen reading a magazine, featuring The Insult That Made a "Jarate Master" Out of Sniper on the back cover.
  • At 3:47 the Spy appears to check his watch as he does in game, although he does not Cloak.
  • For a short period before the Über Update, doves would sometimes fly out of Scouts after they were killed. This foreshadowed the final gag of the video, in which Archimedes is left inside the Scout's chest after his operation.
