Clever idea, but the animation is a little much, and you missed opportunity to use the stock pistol.

this can only be added if he gets a cattleman revolver

How?

hes so silly i love him!!! :333

Since he throws the paper so far, wouldn't it go through walls and props?

too overanimated

Think about how high Engi's arm goes when he twirls his pistol in his default pistol taunt, that would be PERFECT

I think if you slightly toned down how high and outward his arm goes during the second half of the taunt this would be perfect. I really like the idea here though, people have been begging Valve to give engi a revolver for decades, so maybe this will finally get Valve to consider it lol.

Awesome!! Love the idea and animation! Don't let the negativity of workshop warriors demotivate you!

Would be amazing if it used a weapon Engineer actually uses and wasn't so overanimated. All the arm swinging in the end didn't need to happen.

Way too over-animated. Doesn't feel natural.

look's great

"ITS TOO OVER ANIMATED" Its really not, this fits perfectly fine into TF2 and looks cool, i hope it gets added

Maybe do it so that there is a different poster depending on the person that you killed last

the fuck does "stupid" feeling mean

fine enough for a taunt, but it lacks the "stupid" feeling overall. i wouldn't mind it.

This is Lovely. masterpiece. imagen now days 4,275,000 $ in today's US Dollars.

should be able to use a decal tool on this

600 thousand dollars ?

Engineer is wanted for 4,275,000 $ in today's US Dollars.

first half where he's holding up the post is fine but the second half where he shoots it and holsters the gun is too over animated. good stuff though, would get this for flashy kills

instead of a revolver make it the normal pistol. the revolver just looks so out of place

very good, I always like that taunt creators always put a ton of effort into everytaunt, its hard work, and very deserving of gettin in.

in taunt : engie has revolver gun
in game : he can't even take any dropped spy's revolver

good stuff

its flashy. he's excited. he is flaunting. and doing something requiring some major movement. just do not see the over-exaggerated arguement. with face coverings characters rely more on movement to express themselves. pyro an easier case but soldier a similar case as engi with a half covering. plus everybody remembers meet the team. valve themselves animated them to be very lively in movement.

very well designed, quick and effective

As a looping taunt connoisseur, its a breath of fresh air to see a good short mildly infuriating taunt for using after killing someone. Hope it gets added.

Man some of y'all are just actively choosing to hate fucking everything lmao, its a good taunt, its a mocking taunt as many people have begged animators too make, its quick and too the point and doesnt loop like how yall demand every taunt be not looping, yet you still complain about it.

Sure the animation is "too smooth" but I don't understand why that's such a huge issue. Its not like Tf2 stuff hasn't been over animated before, look at the fuckin shred alert, is that over animated? Is it in game? Has it been in game for well over 7 years? Shut the fuck up man

Not some mini piano loop unusual taunt (not that bull****)

Damn, that is how should taunt be. "Taunt" -usually something that you use after killing your enemy to make them furious. Thank you for your work

why not just use the normal pistol... engi never uses a revolver

this taunt is a very interesting one and one of the ones i would love to see the posters to be all the tf2 mercs so it is used as a what i like to call after death taunt.

plus, even it's "way too long", you're an engineer. most of the time you'd be shooting your gun as a self defense near your own frontline, just taunt near a sentry because that's what you might do for the rest of the round. people trying to kill you during the taunt would just get obliterated by your sentry if you have enough braincells to place it at a non-stupid spot.

any point of "it's not overly animated because its cartoon wah wah wah wah wah" is stupid because you don't even realize the not-so-deep design philosophy(not saying i do, i'm a dumbass at it), the game itself isn't trying to be full-on wacky, and if this is allowed, just wait till people start using smear frames and pixar levels of unnecessary details into their "hilarious wacky silly vehicle" taunts.
it's definitely good, i'd even say BETTER, than any other garbage emotes we've got over the years, but the main point is that it's way too interpolated.

"too much animation ? its a cartoon shooter." sure, let's add fortnite to TF2 then, both cartoon shooters, why can't we add that?
because their design direction and stylization are not the fucking same, same goes here for this taunt. it's overly animated, especially at the end. look at every taunt valve has made, which one has the engineer go "WHOAAAAA LOOK AT MY NOODLE ARMS GO WAIEAAAAOAOWAOIASISDFAIJK"? none. this contrasts with the clean, cut, straight-to-the-point nature of TF2 stylized animations. it's fucking garbage. stating the weird world of TF2 lore dosen't help either, you're just spitting fact that has nothing to do with the discussion in any way.

too overly animated. but a nice concept that should be invested in. I would also look at the default taunts when it comes to how fluid an animation should be.

i like the idea of engi having a revolver only for showboating reasons and not for combat

I do like the idea of this taunt however the problem I have with it is that to see the full taunt in effect you have to be some distance away to see it all happen with the video having to adjust its angle just to show how the poster moves.

Excellent, this deserves to be added to the game

to add another thing. yea its the sixtys. but the world in some areas has developed to 2000 technology and in general is all over the place. even though i like the 60's-80's tropes. you got australia and new zealand looking like the episode of the jetsons. and rocket jumping abraham linkin who was also a mercenary and invented stairs. all around a goofy dumb arguement.

people complain nobody makes actual taunts then moan like this. like bro. pick a lane. jfc.

too much animation ? its a cartoon shooter. and its a common trope on famous cowboy media flaunting their wanted reputation. its also a play on engi's texan personality. and for fitting in the time period ? bro. its just a fun cowboy taunt. genuinly i would use this for a taunt kill-cam just fine amazingly. new players getting confused ? bro nobody moves like this in regular gameplay. this is like arguing the soldier juggle taunt of grenades confuses players about if they can use grenades in regular gameplay if not a taunt kill. what a clown dude. who likes statue moving mercenary's like its a bad clay animation ?!

YourWaifu.vtf

tf2 players when a taunt is animated and not a still image

the freeze frame would go incredibly hard tho

its not "overanimated" at all

It's cool but overanimated

To flashy

Too much animation. Calm it down.

we just want engineer with a big iron for god's sake
