You can hear that it starts the moment the camera pans to the other scene, and we can see a Sniper wielding the SMG, it just doesn't produce particle effects. When the sound starts, the Minigun is not being fired yet)

Notes

  • The title card displays "COPYRIGHT LOLOLOL" on the bottom right corner, a recurring joke throughout the "Meet the Team" videos.
  • The song the Engineer plays on his guitar is a section of 'Someone Else's Song' by Wilco. The track used in the video was later released in full as a part of the Team Fortress 2 Soundtrack, under the name More Gun.
  • The guitar the Engineer uses has a steel bridge, which is uncommon for acoustic guitars.
  • The Shotgun is visible throughout the video behind a crate, leaning on the side of the truck.
  • The kill counter is made out of the back of a Sentry Gun.
  • At 0:25, the Engineer drinks a beer called "Blu Streak", despite being on the RED team. Additionally, he is sitting in front of a truck with a BLU logo on it. This implies that the truck, beer, and Intelligence were all stolen from a BLU base.
  • At 0:38, a Sniper creeps up in an attempt to eliminate the Engineer. However, when the Sentry Gun fires at the Sniper, a Soldier death sound is heard.
  • The Level 2 Sentry Gun appears to be ejecting Shotgun shells.
  • At 0:53, a nondescript, disembodied voice of a male yells "My arm!", followed by what appears to be a dismembered Sniper arm falling on the ground in camera view. Despite a Sniper hand being thrown into view, the voice seems to sound much more like that of a Scout.
  • On the hood of the truck, there is a Level 1 Sentry Gun that does nothing throughout the video.
  • As the camera begins to zoom out at 1:10, two Level 1 Sentry Guns, one Level 2 Sentry Gun, and one Level 3 Sentry Gun can be seen already built. This, however, is impossible in-game, as an Engineer can only build one Sentry Gun at a time, with the exception of disposable Sentry Guns in Mann vs. Machine.
  • At 1:10, as the camera pulls away from the Engineer, a dead Scout is draped atop the stack of Intelligence cases.
  • At 1:12, a Level 3 Sentry can be seen shooting rockets to the sky aimlessly.
  • At 1:13, the Level 3 Sentry Gun's rockets shot in the sky disappear before they are out of the camera's view.
  • As the camera pans out from the Engineer at 1:12, a BLU Pyro is killed next to the Sentry Gun, but a Sniper death sound is made.
  • At 1:16, a set of rockets are launched from the location of the Level 2 Sentry Gun.
