Today was a big day for Bud and Will and Chaos is Gaming: They took their Team Fortress 2 Thursday to the masses – and the masses responded with a vengeance.
After being forced to spend the first half of the match on opposite teams, the game auto-balanced Bud to the Blu team with Will. Here’s Bud’s first glimpse of Will as a ally. They were doing ok (as in, dying regularly but not constantly) until the Red team went sniper-heavy.
After the guys were both sniped a number of times, they both tried to return the favor. Will got killed a few times trying, and in this shot, Bud lines up a shot on the other team’s gunman.
This should tell you how that ended.
At one point Bud infiltrated the Red base as a scout and shotty’d an enemy scout in the main room.
Ha! Bud turned around to head back and…
… dammit.
Here, Bud (solider) and Will (Pyro) defend the Blu base.
Bud made to cross the bridge and had both a pyro and a solider on the run when a scout decided to surprise him from behind. He looks surprised, doesn’t he?
Hey, does that flame… have a skull in it? That’s so freaking random.
The guys both died countless times to a fully upgraded sentry gun the Red base’s entryway so Bud went spy to disable it.
There it is!
Sapped!!
It’s damned engineer came back and fixed it, though. Worse however was a pyro who set Bud on fire, destroying his disguise.
Crap crap crap crap… run Bud! He managed to sneak away and re-disguise himself before coming back to try it again.
Here the gun’s still operational. Bud wants to put an end to that.
You know what, you damned, freaking engineer?
Screw you. Unfortunately Bud;s attack cost him his disguise and earned him a few rockets from the still-live sentry gun. He didn’t destroy the gun but he got to stab that stupid engineer. That’s good for something right?
Sure. Ok, let’s try that again.
Damn, even disguised he didn’t make it across the bridge without getting sniped. Ok, spy games are over.
Finally, a semi-coordinated attack! Bud (now a solider) follows Will (still a pyro) who follows a demo man into the Red base.
Will’s fighting someone here.
Ah, an engineer. Time for the Chaos is Gaming Two-Step to bring him down.
Dead! Muahaha… now to press their advantage into the enemy…
… crap. Ok, fall back and regroup.
Bud faces down a line of troops but it’s futile.
The guys have lost. They lose. Oh, sad sad day! Bud finished with 25 kills but died 36 times. Will died 37 times and nabbed 10 kills, but about a dozen assists. About even, I’d say.
So they both share blame for the loss.
