Info
First revealed at GC '06, this trailer showcased the various abilities of Team Fortress 2's player classes.
Class specific differences from the final product
- The Scout is shown here wielding a Nailgun, which was replaced by the Scattergun in the finished game.
- RED Soldiers are shown wearing the outfit they had on in the first trailer.
- The Soldier's Rocket Launcher has a rocket at the end when loaded.
- The Demoman is shown wielding and throwing a MIRV, a would be stay-over from Team Fortress Classic, which was removed from the game following beta and replaced with Sticky bombs.
- The Demoman's Grenade Launcher could hold up to 6 grenades.
- The Demoman's ability to remotely detonate his Grenades hadn't yet been moved to his Sticky bombs.
- The Heavy's Minigun firing animation includes a more cartoonish muzzle flash coming out of the barrel. The final version's lighting appears more realistic.
- The Heavy's Minigun fires bullets in an extremely wide spread.
- The Heavy's movement speed is much slower in the finished game.
- The Level 1 Sentry Gun has a different firing sound, which originally seemed to be the MP5 sound from Half Life, builds at quite a slow speed (But this may be because of the fact the Engineer isn't hitting his Wrench off it), and seems to have a higher rate of fire. It also has a muzzle flash, unlike the simple recoil the gun has now.
- The Sniper's animation when backstabbed was later implemented as a unique death animation.
- The Spy's Knife has a much longer and more intricate switching animation than in the final game. Also, in the trailer, the Spy could hold the knife before deploying it.
Other differences
- The Pyro and the Medic are both seen in the trailer, but neither are mentioned.
- The design of the characters is very close to the finished game, but there are still some slight visual differences.
- Footstep sounds were recycled from Half-Life 2.
- The classes all have their beta designs which are all still seen in the Heads-up Display while playing.
- The emblems on the class' arms are solid circles instead of class emblems.
- Weapons were less jerky when being wielded by classes. For example, the Nailgun held by the running Scout was almost stationary when it was viewed
- The spawns have a separate exit and entrance like in Team Fortress Classic.
- The 2Fort bridge is uncovered.
- The explosion graphics are different in the finished game.
- The picture showing all the classes at the end is an old version featuring the older designs and weapons.
- All characters have the same voice and stock dying noises including the infamous Wilhelm scream.
- Characters have a few clarity issues. For example, the Heavy's ear and Demoman's eye patch are a bit blurred.
- The finished game has far more blood when players are gibbed.
- The classes' health were set very low (especially Soldier and Pyro) so that the other classes could kill them easily.
