First revealed at GC 06, Trailer 2 showcased the various abilities of Team Fortress 2's player classes. Showing an early rendition of the game, the trailer contains several differences from the final product.
Video
Changes
General
- The general texture and lighting of the character models is of significantly lower quality.
- The emblems on the classes' arms are solid circles, instead of class emblems. The exception to this is RED Pyro.

- The classes had more lowerpoly heads, which can be seen in their gib models.
Scout
- Appears to have more upper-body build than the current model does.
- Is shown wielding the Nail Gun which was later replaced with the Scattergun. The Nail Gun was the primary weapon used by the Scout in Team Fortress Classic.
