Good concept, poor execution

Ok, nice, rn is football season, but what about taunt? This taunt is seasonal. I don't like the idea of it.

I'm sorry but Scout plays BASEBALL, not SOCCER :steamfacepalm:

Please don’t make it 6-8 seconds long man
Make it snappy and only last like a maximum of 4 seconds, because taunts are quick and flashy

Thanks for hearing us.
But Scout`s face is still uncanny (and funny).

I've been reading every comment, just been pondering reworking the entire taunt in general since there's been a bit of warm reception to the idea. Here are my thoughts:

-Scout is a baseball guy, but Tropic Crisis takes place in and around Brazil, where baseball is practically unheard of compared to futbol/soccer. I agreed with the idea for this taunt since it fits with what it was being released with.

-The intro and outro of this do need to be a bit reworked, I was trying to give it a different style to most of the taunts since there's a variety of tricks you can do with a soccer ball, but I think I do need to go down a simpler route for a more natural look to it.

-I should have switched the hands during the flairs from IK to FK, think that would help me pinpoint the issues of the hands not feeling connected to Scout's body that some people here mentioned. Completely on me, it was a bit of a difficult choice considering I don't have the same motion capture resources, and it's much harder to work with FK than IK for me since I'm not used to it.

-Although I do think this kind of takes away from the taunt's idea, I'll remove the looping on the taunt and just make it a 7-8 second regular taunt to simplify it as a quick taunt. I was thinking more on the basis on how these routines do last a couple of minutes in actual practice.

-Finally, I do consider this taunt a lot more polished than my other taunts, I just think the pacing of the poses are a bit jank, and the IK arms really don't help with making it seem realistic. I'll probably make Scout do a few more exaggerated moves so it doesn't seem so stiff. Thanks for the criticism everybody, and the 5 stars (I'll improve it so it stays that way!)

The animation/Taunt is 6/10, but it's good for what you guys are doing.

- Could be better/adjusted to fit TF2's animation style
- Scout is giving the vibes that he doesn't want to do this, at all.
- His arms for the Loop, flair 1 and flair 2 is a bit janky
- Outro is a bit sad, what if he kicked the ball away or stop the ball on the ground?

PLUS, Scout's face is really uncanny in the image.

scout play soccer? make a baseball taunt for him
Otlyx 5 May, 2024 @ 10:25am 
need to be more worked, but i like the idea

Needs way more improvment, like the arms that seem to move disconeccted to their bodie most of the time

I think styling on someone you just pointblank blasted with a sawn-off double-barrel shotgun with soccerball juggling tricks would absolutely be considered a taunt.
PlafonFan 4 May, 2024 @ 1:05pm 
Shouldn't bee a looping taun.
hac 4 May, 2024 @ 12:36pm 
I like the animation, but this could of been done better.:steamsad:
Joomig 4 May, 2024 @ 8:30am 
no thanks :steamthumbsdown:
Bluhu 4 May, 2024 @ 2:36am 
I just personally don't like the animation work. I don't think it's high quality enough to be called "fit for tf2".

Also, the other critisisims, yeah, it's not really a taunt, but not really one of those role play taunts either that can at least make up for it by being funny. This would be one of those taunts that would get forgotten as soon as it would get into the game, regardless of polish.

no taunt here
Kingkrool94 3 May, 2024 @ 9:59pm 
It's nice and all, but Scout is shown and plays as a baseball guy (the Sandman). seems a bit out of character to play Soccer so well.
evil sex 3 May, 2024 @ 7:58pm 
Not to be that guy, but wouldn’t it be conceptually better if it was him doing stunts with a baseball and a bat?
J(0)T4 3 May, 2024 @ 7:07pm 
animation is not good enough to be in the game, the bar of the animation in the other taunts is just too high

Scout's fucking ballin
Xycelium 3 May, 2024 @ 3:27pm 
Not bad on this, I will say, I do think that the ball juggling it's self could be altered a bit to have Scout not feel so stiff while he's kicking, since it seems like he's not putting much effort into kicking the ball as a whole. The 2nd Flair does do a great job at showing this off, but I wish the 1st and Loop did a better job at it. Also, the intro and outro are quite great lol.
Xycelium 3 May, 2024 @ 3:23pm 
@Pickle Da Goldfish I think it does make sense for it to be looping, since this ball juggle routine is a common practice for football players that need a warm-up, and it can go on for a long time.

@Gab Hmm, I don't know. The Scout isn't really meant to be seen as the most *capable* nor really charming class. That's sorta just a part of his character. :y

furbo
The Toucher 3 May, 2024 @ 12:21pm 
a animação precisa ser mais trabalhada, os ingrientes tão ai, so falta cozinhar bem, mas de resto ta bom e tem potencial meu cria
Pickle Da Goldfish 3 May, 2024 @ 10:17am 
I don't really see why this needed to be a looping taunt.
RATEATER(on vacation) 3 May, 2024 @ 9:40am 
excited to make my neymar scout loadout real
Gab 3 May, 2024 @ 9:11am 
ok I think this has potential but I don't really like intro and outro, it doesn't feel nature at all, like why the scout have a hard time do that, should make him more cooler
Otherwise the ball's animation feels weird, idk but just my though.
Another_Mexicano 3 May, 2024 @ 8:55am 
The ball seems to rotate slower than the rest of the animation shows, it's more visible on the Flair 1
Gandalf the fool 3 May, 2024 @ 8:51am 
First: CONGRATULATIONS this is great and the whole community should be really grateful you putted all this effort into this really cool idea. I have no idea on how to make taunts.

However (in my opinion) if you want this in the game, you'll need to smooth the animation. Else it feels artificial.

Again, this is great, be proud of yourself.

This is great !!!!!!

A good idea, but it really does need a lot more smoothing over, otherwise love scout playing with larger and larger balls.
