The Scout: 2007 vs 2011
It’s amazing what a few years will do to a young lad. Looks like our favorite boy from Boston has really grown up and matured!

  2. WizardRex on February 4th, 2011 10:15 pm

    Brooklyn? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO I AM!?

  3. Leo E. on February 4th, 2011 10:18 pm

    Shawn: "Looks like our favorite boy from Brooklyn has really grown up and matured!"

    Boston. The exact opposite of Brooklyn.

  4. gamegeneral on February 4th, 2011 10:20 pm

    Uhh, why are his shoes pink?
    Like, when did those get added?

  5. Tael on February 4th, 2011 10:23 pm

    It's amazing what you can create with a little bit of scrap metal!

  6. Tael on February 4th, 2011 10:23 pm

    They are the shoes and wristbands item from Monday Night Combat, I believe. They're usually garish lime green.

  7. Tael on February 4th, 2011 10:26 pm

    Well thanks Shawn, for giving me that mental image of the scout with Joey's Brooklyn accent.

  9. FungiGamer on February 4th, 2011 10:35 pm

    So is this the Scout version of Demopan?

    Flareball Scout?

  10. DM1293 on February 4th, 2011 10:35 pm

    Its a sad day when the wise-cracking Boston badass is wearing pink shoes and a rabbit hat, listening to an Ipod….Dear gods am I the only normal scout left? Do I have to go back to TF2 tonight to kill some wannabes?! DO I!?

  11. gamegeneral on February 4th, 2011 10:36 pm

    Ah. I've started not caring since after Poker Night. Anything added to TF2 is just…meh.

  12. Marzen on February 4th, 2011 10:37 pm

    Honestly, I prefer giving him a pillaring tower instead of a max head. It just looks so silly on a guy who runs everywhere, what with it not toppling over.

    Or, as I always call em, the Tillaring Power of hats! :D

  13. quaker171 on February 4th, 2011 10:42 pm

    …Wow. So much done with only MILLIONS OF WEAPONS WASTED!

  14. XPengooX64 on February 4th, 2011 10:44 pm

    Still not as bad as the Demopan…

  15. El_bruno on February 4th, 2011 10:46 pm

    And those, kids, are the long run effects having the enemy sleep with your mothers.

    Please think about these poor Scouts before going to sleep with the mother of your enemies, since you don't want to have a rivalry with THAT do you?

  16. DM1293 on February 4th, 2011 10:52 pm

    Well to be fair Shawn did fix it.

  17. SadFace298 on February 4th, 2011 10:54 pm

    Scout is from Boston!!!!!

  18. Marzen on February 4th, 2011 10:54 pm

    WHO DO YOU THINK I AM?!

    MY TOWERING PILLAR IS THE PILLAR THAT SHALL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!

  19. Walweegee on February 4th, 2011 10:55 pm

    Mah Boi, i am proud of you!!!!!!!

  20. Spolin on February 4th, 2011 11:03 pm

    OBJECTION!

    The 2011 Scout is clearly shown wearing 3 different misc slot items, when in fact you can only equip one at a time! That scout is an imposter!

  21. Angemon300 on February 4th, 2011 11:04 pm

    NYEAd a dispenser here!

  22. venomgod on February 4th, 2011 11:07 pm

    i got the game on halloween , and i still dont have much items, which is why i prefer the orgininal without updates, out of pure jealousy. :(

    *puts gun to head*

  23. Alpar on February 4th, 2011 11:11 pm

    My father is no longer here… he's been Spychecked… HOWEVER!

    On my right handed bat…

    And my left handed Bonk….

    He continues to live on as a part of me!

    If you're going to trade, trade for the heavens! Even if it's a Scrap Metal you're trading for, keep on dealing! Once you've profited your way through, that means you've won!

    Who the hell do you think I am… I'm not the Spy or some fatty fat fat fat… I'm me!

    A FORCE A NATURE!

    *stands up and slow claps, which leads to a wave of other bystanders clapping until there's thunderous applause*

  26. Alpar on February 4th, 2011 11:13 pm

    I think this was Scout's mental exercise in order to help him get over his fear of rainbows.

  27. Ichiinu on February 4th, 2011 11:13 pm

    I was about to say…

  28. AuraMaster on February 4th, 2011 11:14 pm

    What a rich history in the evolution of Hat Fortress 2.

  29. Ichiinu on February 4th, 2011 11:14 pm

    Pardon me for asking, but… WTH bat is that!?

  30. Sir_Nox on February 4th, 2011 11:17 pm

    The more things change, the more they put Scout to shame.

  31. Uzumakiclan43 on February 4th, 2011 11:17 pm

    <img src="http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rabbid_4893.jpg"&gt;
    Was it weird that I made that connection?

  32. Sir_Nox on February 4th, 2011 11:18 pm

    I like Rabid Scout better, just look at that psychotic smile.

  33. died70 on February 4th, 2011 11:40 pm

    Aw man, where do you get that blue shirt for a RED scout? I need one of those to confuse my enemies.

  34. Roflcopter419 on February 4th, 2011 11:42 pm

    I don't think he was afraid of them, it's more that the beauty of them made him cry.

  35. FungiGamer on February 4th, 2011 11:44 pm

    I just thought Flare would fit

    Flare = Solar Flares
    Flare = Fashion (those socks are questionably fashionable and simply something to DIE for!)
    Um….. Hare ?= rhymes with flare, concerns the delightful rabbit skull resting upon his head

  36. Roflcopter419 on February 4th, 2011 11:45 pm

    You know, times like these have actually made the 360 version of TF2 start to look appealing…

  37. OrionX on February 4th, 2011 11:49 pm

    In 4 years, Scout has gone from RED Team to BLU Team.
    TRAITOROUS SCUM.

  38. Xenrek on February 5th, 2011 12:00 am

    cant beat my, cant beat my, no you cant beat my BROOKLYN RAGE~!

    p.s. what is this symbol used in? -> æ

  39. Xenrek on February 5th, 2011 12:01 am

    oh you know! it's that bat you get for doing that thing at the place.

  40. Leo E. on February 5th, 2011 12:02 am

    Very rarely used anymore, often replaced in English by either an "ae" or just an "e", like "archaeology" as opposed to "archæology".

  41. Xenrek on February 5th, 2011 12:03 am

    a hobo is not a bum, a hobo is a nomadic worker prevalent during the depressionistic era of american history. they would travel the rails looking for work, and they did not beg… like bums do.

  42. Zabrio on February 5th, 2011 12:12 am

    It's the Rift Pre-order Bat, Sun on a stick

  43. JesterJoe on February 5th, 2011 12:16 am

    I actually like that too.

  44. JesterJoe on February 5th, 2011 12:17 am

    If you want it, wait a month, they'll be craftable.

  45. JesterJoe on February 5th, 2011 12:18 am

    Sun on a stick, making Scout pyro's creeper since….a few days ago.

  46. RemielChibus on February 5th, 2011 12:19 am

    DAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

  47. Tadferd on February 5th, 2011 12:20 am

    This kids is why you don't get high on BONK. You can get addicted on the first use and end up like our poor friend here.
    You will become obsessed with hats and silly weaponry. You will lose sight of your real objective. Capturing that soldier's point and pushing a bomb in a minecart up hills. You will lose yourself to BONK.

    It certainly seems appropriate to compare today's TF2 to a rabbid.

  50. BTSnoogans on February 5th, 2011 12:59 am

    He really has matured. He switched to Blue Team. Much better.

  51. Dr. Furry on February 5th, 2011 1:06 am
  52. SnowKatana on February 5th, 2011 1:36 am

    Demopan?

  53. SnowKatana on February 5th, 2011 1:38 am

    And when he says shame he means herpes

  54. TAG on February 5th, 2011 1:42 am

    So he traded his gun for a portable sun with the capacity to vaporize anything on touch on account of it being the friggin’ sun…..SOUNDS LIKE 2011 SCOUT GOT THE BETTER END OF THAT DEAL.

  55. inylchilar on February 5th, 2011 1:43 am

    Okay… seriously. This shit isn't funny anymore.

    HAHA LOOK AT HOW TF2 HAS CHANGED IT'S SO DUMB NOW.

    All the hat stuff is OPTIONAL. Most of that stuff you have to play other Steam games to get. Can we all just shut the fuck up about this and play the god damn game?

  56. wingedwithmana on February 5th, 2011 1:55 am

    They would carry their tools, usually farming implements, with them. The most easily seen would be the solid, wide hoe, thereby giving them their title: "Hoe Boys." Also, many would be skilled in hitching rides on the side-ladders of trains, much like we see the garbage-collectors now doing with those trucks.(I've also seen garbage trucks with the collectors hanging on on the highway, which is much more dangerous than doing the same on a freight- or passenger-train was. It scares me that they probably don't realize that they're travelling hundreds of miles more, and probably thirty- or thirty-five mph faster than people who used to get off every time a 18-24 mph train braked, at intervals of maybe 15-18 minutes.) Yes, off-topic, but interesting.

  57. DM1293 on February 5th, 2011 2:48 am

    *Hands you a memo* I do verily decree that henceforth, unfunny jokes on any vehicular object and/or persons shall result in immediate E-peen drops. It is now alongside Courage Kratos, intentional trolling (for the benefit of the -100's), First posts, and all unwarranted bashing of cult/popular games, anime, television shows, and all tropes (if and when someone memorizes them all.)

    Except Halo. Still fair game, otherwise the site name is pointless. I am proud though that you guys have rode that joke into the ground. You did my job for me!

    "rode that joke"

    I see what you did there.

  63. Lax on February 5th, 2011 4:09 am

    Brooklyn rage?! BROOKLYN RAGE!!

  64. DM1293 on February 5th, 2011 4:19 am

    It is his punishment.

  65. Oddwan on February 5th, 2011 4:44 am

    Æ is a letter used in Danish, Norwegian, Icelandic and Faroese. Æ represent the letter ä in Swedish, German and Finnish. It is however pronounced in several different ways.

  66. DrSexington on February 5th, 2011 5:09 am

    I've killed many of the abominations with my damn bare hands (actually that's a lie)

  67. AccelTrial on February 5th, 2011 5:20 am
  68. Rain on February 5th, 2011 5:50 am

    OBJECTION!

    The BLU Scout is already dead
    He was murdered by the RED Spy on the 19th of May in 2009!

    So the only logical conclusion on why the BLU Scout is apparently still alive after his murder is because THAT BLU SCOUT IS A SPY!

    Alright, who's ready to go find the Spy?

    Spy: Right behind you

    *stab**stab**stab**stab**stabstabstabstab*

  69. MoG on February 5th, 2011 5:52 am

    poor lil guy… he just wanted to be in the 69 peen club… like how i want to be in the 100 club, oh a moogle can dream….

  70. BoxeyBrown on February 5th, 2011 6:19 am

    You sacrifice the extra maps, but all the characters gain back their dignity…

  71. Alpar on February 5th, 2011 7:08 am

    Oh yeah, and no sandvich and Dead Ringer. Sucks for all of you.

  72. C__F on February 5th, 2011 9:02 am

    Wait a second… Anti-Hat FPS Association?

    Anti-capitalist warmongers! You dare to encourage war and kart-based terrorism over free trade?!

  73. C__F on February 5th, 2011 9:05 am

    Spyttorney: Take That!

  74. Mudkip on February 5th, 2011 9:38 am

    Hmm…Yea since everything is utter trading chaos.

  75. DrSexington on February 5th, 2011 9:38 am

    I feel zis image is missing something…..

  76. Mudkip on February 5th, 2011 9:41 am

    that or he was forced into the team as a spy because the spy was absent that day.

  77. DrSexington on February 5th, 2011 9:43 am

    Killed manya those abominations with my bare goddamn hands (no that's a lie, mainly with a rake or big axe)

  78. DrSexington on February 5th, 2011 9:44 am

    Just like the firey axe of death for the pyro.

    Only diffence is that if you get it from the pre-ordered promotion you just get Genuine infront of the item name. Which can be fixed with a name tag

  79. GazzyW007 on February 5th, 2011 10:09 am

    You don't mean that he could be a….

  80. GazzyW007 on February 5th, 2011 10:11 am

    Stop trying to make Brookyln Rage a catchprase. It'll never catch on.

  81. Dimomarg on February 5th, 2011 10:49 am

    he's probably braindead from the hats, crafting and trading, but at least he looks happier.

  82. FlareKitsu on February 5th, 2011 11:33 am

    Trade Fortress 2, everyone.

    So. No optimization updates, nothing for LOD's, Bug fixes, etc.

    Just more HERP DERP DERP PROMO ITEMZ AND HATZ.

    Oh Valve. You fail so hard right now.

  83. Funkalicous on February 5th, 2011 11:58 am

    Dang. I still wonder how everyone else can pull of the "Card Games on Motorcycles" pun.

  93. Roflcopter419 on February 5th, 2011 1:30 pm

    On the other hand, no FaN or Huntsman. So maybe it's not so big a loss (for those who didn't have them and got raped by them, anyway).

  94. Kam_Fakami on February 5th, 2011 1:50 pm

    But does the 360 have the female Scout mod? NOPE.avi

    I play as female Scout, sooooo…

  99. Kam_Fakami on February 5th, 2011 1:58 pm

    Actually, in the TF2 universe, the characters often get time off to be with their families and friends. If RED Spy killed BLU Scout, then he would not be getting laid anymore by BLU Scout's Mom. A more likely scenario is that he was just disguised as BLU Scout, but he didn't kill our quick little bunny. (Who is literally a bastard.)

  100. Kam_Fakami on February 5th, 2011 2:02 pm

    And making for a nice game of fire tennis with Pyros since a few days ago.

    Hey, DM1293, you forgot to say "breaking any of the 211+ rules of Halolz, incorrect grammar, and claiming that an image is Photoshopped". *slams table* GET WITH THE PROGRAM, MAN!

  105. TheKingOfLazors on February 5th, 2011 4:46 pm

    The Sun Scout has finally arrived. Who will be next to fall to promotional items?

  108. Rain on February 5th, 2011 6:36 pm

    HOLD IT!

    This evidence says otherwise!

    May I direct the court's attention to the second panel?
    Thank you, please look at the screen on the right on said panel
    What do you see?
    It's the dead BLU Scout's corpse, possibly killed by the RED Spy as he infiltrated the BLU base

  109. DM1293 on February 5th, 2011 7:35 pm

    You defy the rules by having a Tidus avatar. The rules can be broken and still come away with a victory.

  110. Babalenong on February 5th, 2011 7:51 pm

    why is this posted on secret items? the scout is an item?

    It's a PIE FLAVOR!

  126. oboewan on February 7th, 2011 5:09 pm

    What a coincidence. I just switched from 360 to PC for, well, precisely this reason ITEMS ITEMS OH GOD I AM A SUCKER FOR ITEMS.

    I have problems.

  127. oboewan on February 7th, 2011 5:09 pm

    Gives a whole new meaning to "bonk"

  128. oboewan on February 7th, 2011 5:09 pm
