TF2 isn't a boy's club after all?/Is this a Korea Knock Off?

The texture file for the pyro's under-mask skin you wrap those around a 3d model
and they make a pyro head with a female face. and apparently it's in the pyro directory. Could be the Scout's mom but the scout's mom (unless she's the pyro) isn't a playable character so there would be no reason to have that file in the game content files.Or even in the game for that matter @ playable character.

I know Valve encourages tinkering so I'm calling hoax until......well until I see the "Meet the Pyro" vid Who knows. Maybe Valve is trying to trick us? They know a scary amount of us WANT the Pyro to be female. Maybe the Pyro was supposed to be female all along but they never got around to implementing it. And that image might be from the games early development.

( boys club = Sausagefest lol )

EDIT: I just saw this video today. Its like the otaku's wetdream of a game crossing Team Fortress 2 and I dunno. Super Smash Brothers? (different anime characters)

"Implementing it"?

I heard that they posted a teaser referring to Pyro as she with the spy info, and then took it down.

Valve likes sticking little tib bits in places.

Before the update of "Jarate," people thought it was just a joke, so when was code pointing to a boomerang weapon, people expected that to be the last weapon instead.

If you download the HD version of the "Meet the Spy" video, you can see some interesting things on the alert screens. Along with a sign that says "Leaked Video" that was added in the official version, there are two signs that say "Is a Man" and "Is a Woman", obviously referring to the confusion around the Pyro's gender.

Honestly, just check out the page on TF2wiki for some more indepth speculation!

I love TF2. It's amazing how much story you can put in a game without having an actual story.

Si. I did draw it.

Also its true the game has a story without actually having a story. Which is why fan speculation is rabid. Have you been to tvtropes.org 's TF2 Wild Mass Guess page?

Yes, I have. I'll quote my favorites.

Every one of the characters in the game is already dead.

No, they're not in Hell, or Purgatory either. Instead, they've been taken by the valkyries to Valhalla, where they spend their days in constant, glorious combat, preparing for Ragnarok. This is why they're able to "respawn" after being killed; since they're already dead, they're effectively immortal.

  • If Armageddon turns out to be a game of Capture The Flag, I'm leaving.
      [*]And going where? [*]An afterlife with a team deathmatch server or two. [*]With the new Arena mode, that's now possible. [/list:u:7f8cd85169] [/list:u:7f8cd85169]

The Scout is the father of Ness from Earthbound

Where do you think Ness's dad got much money if he just works making hamburgers?

    [*]Ness's SMAAAASH hits are clearly inherited from his father's ability to BONK enemies into submission. [*]As are his PSI powers; the Scout's double jump is a form of levitation. [*]Works well enough for this troper, who recently started saying "BONK!" during the battle with Porky in The Subspace Emissary [/list:u:7f8cd85169]

A future game mode and/or map will involve Dracula in some way

Come on. "Found Dracula" and "Lost Dracula" sounds like more than just a one-off gag, and this game is absolutely silly anyway.

.....I'd like to see this in action actually. I think a zombie mod would be cool too XD

Like, you have to get a picture of Dracula, but it takes a while to work so you have to keep him in sight for a certain amount of time or something?

At first I thought...Wow is this a Mod? But apparently this is a real game. Apparently.

At this point. Every BAD fanart of the Team Fortress characters gender bended as anime females....is legitimized.
