thunder pump shotgun

"So nice of the sniper to lend us his rifle eh luigi" Pyro probably

Fortnite. It's too big, step-bro.

bortnite

i love how comically large it is

I think it's swell

Geebanger hit the nail on the head with the diffs in model stylisation.
This looks nothing like a fortnite gun lmao, it fits perfectly

this buck big

the biggest buck

As for the suggested stats, theyre awful. It works out to 6 less damage per shot at mid range and a tenth of a second longer wait between shots in exchange for a massive accuracy boost and the option to deal almost 110 damage with a headshot. Either get rid of one of the statistical upsides, or add an extra downside.

Headshots, as a game mechanic, shouldn't be utilised by any class other than sniper or spy. Pyro, Heavy, Soldier and Engineer are not pick classes, and accurate shot placement is not a trait that their playstyles demand.

To be clear, the issue is that you're encouraging classes built around area denial, splash damage, and autoaim to attempt to go for headshots.

i swear to god, half the people who play this game are druggos.

both this weapon and the pump shotgun from fortnite are made to resemble real world weapons such as the remington 870 (in this case its just an 870 with a sight on it). If they both take inspiration from the same source, then no shit they're going to look similar.

However, this is very clearly not a Fortnite-style weapon model. Fortnites guns are characterised by harsh angles and uneven geometry; this model more closely resembles TF2s simpler, more round weapons. Whilst the model itself is certainly quite large, and looks a little odd in the full body promos, in terms of style its ok (the thumbnail probably didn't help in this regard).

mfs when the color of brown used doesn't match tf2's art style

no he can't i would know i'm a man

eh, a man can dream

\/true

All this drama here like were ever going to get a new gun ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Can someone explain to me how a 1973 Mossberg hunting shotgun with a world war 2 sight does not fit the time period of TF2 or the artstyle?

The thumbnail is a little bit of poor taste but to spawn most of these responses is petty.

this would help for engis who are rushed down and whip this out,
also a more balanced idea would be:

Mini-crit on headshot
30% more accurate
-10 less pellets
-20% slower swith to speed
mini-crit damage should have the same range as the asbassder!

youre real funny

i say "fortnite item" under a lot of unnecessarily cartoony shit pretty often, but whoever made this was so dense that they decided to make it a real thing!

A completely different game that also took strong inspiration from TF2 during it's early development, especially with the weapons from its very early days.

And again, what the modellers made was a generic pump action shotgun , which has been a thing in TF2 since 2007. What, because they chose something from a popular game that's totally generic, it's suddenly unfitting for this game?

And hell, you're going to say this doesn't fit TF2 because they're referencing another game, when this game has promotional weapons from other games with way different aesthetics from TF2? Like how do the superfuturistic weapons we got from Deus Ex: Human Revolution look way more fitting than a pump-action shotgun with wood furnishings?

@Agentteach4774 Wait til you learn that like 80% of the items in the game are inspired by other media lol

you may be shocked to learn that fortnite chapter 1's artstyle was directly heavily inspired by TF2, in a way this is a rather amusing completion of a circle so to speak to be referenced back in TF2

Cuz this is inspired from a completely different games.

Can you explain to me how it doesn't?

How does this fit TF2 lol.

Okay so why is a weapon that's inspired by Fortnite, even when it's been modelled to appear more appropriate for TF2, bad, because it's inspired by another IP that's currently popular?

And yes, this does take inspiration from the Chapter 1 shotgun [images2.minutemediacdn.com], but saying it's the exact same model from another game is a massive reach, as the Big Buck takes a lot of different design approaches compared to the Chapter 1 shotgun.

Who cares if it's inspired by Fortnite anyway? This is probably the least offensive thing in the entire game to take inspiration from. Shotguns of this design have been a thing since the 1800s; this wasn't something that Epic Games themselves created.

it looks like you stole the model straight from Fortnite (Ch 1 specifically)
Even the fucking thumbnail
Reminder this is the TF2 not Fortnite or Roblox

If something looks Fortnite, then it doesn't look TF2. The thumbnail is clearly deliberately Fortnite.

Saying something looks like/is inspired by something from Fortnite is really becoming such a meaningless complaint in the comments of items, especially with how overused its become. It's like someone saying it doesn't fit the game's artstyle and not being able to elaborate as to what they mean; it literally means nothing except being nitpicky for the sake of finding anything to be outraged about.

Even so, what's the issue with workshop items reminding you of something from Fortnite? Is it because it's a popular game played by kids? Is it because it's oversensationalized and overblown with licensed IPs?

Regardless what the reasoning may be, Fortnite did use TF2 as a source of inspiration during its development when cementing an artstyle, and that applied to how the weapons in their game were to be designed and styling certain bits of clothing. Even if someone on the workshop's trying to make a cosmetic that looks like its its own thing, there's always some clown making a big stink, because it somehow reminds them of a Fortnite playerskin.

they're*

Eh, it seems like a pretty damn good TF2 interpretation of the Fortnite Pump Shotty aside from the Nydar. I sorta think about it the same way as the AWPer Hand and Widowmaker. In which thye're pretty neat TF2-izied versions of guns from other games.

To the people saying this is fine Fortnite and Team Fortress 2 are completely different games. TF2 is a fps class based shooter while Fortnite is a third person battle royal, and the biggest reason why this isn't TF2 is because Fortnite and Team Fortress 2 have completely different art styles.

Players ask for new weapons

Same players: "TF2 is turning into Fortnite"

fortnite reference, killing myself /j

also I really gotta say that complaining about this weapon having a sight attachment and that being 'perior inappropriate' is such a silly take when this is the same game where teleportation & cloaking technology exists since the 1800s. Hell, most of Engineer's shotguns have attachments on them that make them do weird scifi shit.

TF2 is not a serious game depicting the Cold-War Era of the world and it never was.

For anyone saying that the sight looks out of place, it's actually a reflex sight from 1947 called the Nydar Reflex sight... not like that'll change anyone's mind, I highly doubt it.

It's almost like TF2 and Fortnite are both cartoonish shooters with cartoonish-looking guns

This is TF2 not fortnite, hard no.

damn people think tf2 takes place in WW2 or something?

the reticle sight need to go, it's not fitting. other than that. it actually look pretty cool.

the reticle sight looks a bit weird for the period TF2 takes place. but love the modeling.

Comically oversized gun. It looks more like a toy than a shotgun on the TF2 mercs.

its cool but deff wont get added it would take work to put it into the game
