You have found the algorithm. every map from tfc that made it to tf2, make a video on. this is an amazing video idea, and myself and others would definitely want to see more.

10:10 this thing is for grenades, so you need to be more precise when you throw em. or they will fall into this gap and deal no damage

[@LEDs]

Thanks for letting me know what those are

[@alface935]

Oh Thats Actually a Good Idea Since In TFC All 9 Classes Have Grenades

[@realdragon]

My first thought was demoman pipes

[@himynamewaz]

I like how you show footage, instead of just using images. It give us a full view of what it used to look like. Also. May I suggest you make a vid about huge difference between original maps, and their modern counterpart’s

[@LEDs]

I will strongly consider it. You’re not the only one to suggest this.

[@raphaelclado8153]

At 6:44 you need tfc demoman's detpack to destroy the wall. There are also other places in the other parts where you can destroy the wall with the detpack.

[@LEDs]

Thank you, you’re the only one who’s told me this!

[@spiderm4n]

That's incorrect. Demoman can't open any passages on dustbowl, they open automatically after 5 minutes.

[@spiderm4n]

@@LEDs You also missed the upper tunnel at the first sage in TFC's dustbowl, they also open automatically after 5 minutes.

[@EmperorPrinc3]

The one thing I miss from TFC was the flank routes with destructible environments. CTF_Well had flanks like that. Same with CP_warpath which the TF2 community brought over from TFC. And had the destructible flank in TF2.

[@SharfKnows]

kinda sus

[@norbertbubiek5655]

7:32 Those bags in Pre-Fortress are replenish armor, on your hud you can see that scout has 25 armor. Once you have no armor, you can pick it up to fully replenish your armor 11:29 The buckets replenish trowables, for example grenades

[@jaysbadatgaming]

I like how instead of modifying the map drastically, they blocked off passageways instead

[@heavenandhello6629]

4:30 In 2007, there used to be a bug of where you would be able to build a tele exit VERY close under that ladder that would be used to trap your team. It was very funny. But it’s still possible for tf2 on this game bundle pack called “The Orange Box” for Xbox 360 since it’s the 2007 version of the game and it never got updated for 15 years unlike the pc version.

[@lee23231]

also on the orange box dustbowl doesnt have those stairs on the choke hallway part right across from that spawn hole on dustbowl stage 3

[@heavenandhello6629]

@@lee23231 my other comment is right on top of this comment that said it doesn’t have the stairs either. You didn’t read that one. Or look even more in the comments. That’s how you’re gonna know that I already knew that

[@Xhepyxopila]

11:35 Fun fact, because they're based off older builds of the game, the Orange Box console versions for PS3 and XBox 360 don't have that staircase Every modded Dustbowl server I joined always had a diagonal ladder prop put there as a replacement

[@LEDs]

Somebody else mentioned that too. Crazy how Orange Box is like that

[@BoxOfKrabs]

Also the second exit for BLU spawn on stage 2 wasn’t there for the PS3 and 360 version

[@scorpiosystem8082]

something to note about TFC is that, on the whole, classes were faster, more mobile, and had more weapons and tools to navigate maps and overcome chokes (Scouts could outrun sentry turning speed, for example). Dustbowl is still very chokey even for TFC but other maps like 2Fort were much less egregious than they look

[@mistadip42]

I like how instead of just removing the old areas in TF2 they fenced them off instead. It’s the small things that make a game great

[@asenvelkov301]

That was interesting, I've never seen the Pre-Tf2 dustbowl somehow, even after 4K hrs of gameplay. Overall it was pleasant to watch! Hope your channel has a bright future.

[@LEDs]

Thanks man. I’ve got a couple more dustbowl-related map videos in consideration right now

[@a_creatorsstuff17]

Many of the classic version routes that you say are not present are actualy there, you see them via no clip, and thats cuz Demoman has a explosive bag that can blow up the wall to open those shortcut routes for the attackers It took a long time to blow and if im not mistaken spies could disarm it, but made demoman an importan class to have in both attack and defence

[@a_creatorsstuff17]

7:00, funny how in tf2 you can do the exact same jump off also a sign

[@a_creatorsstuff17]

Oh btw, planning to do other comparissons? Like 2fort and even the football map?

[@RichterOvertime]

[@sO_RoNerY]

TFC is still revolutionary. Can’t dislike and hate on the old look.

[@ZackAttackHall]

13:01 these stairs didnt exist on launch for tf2 they were added about 2 months later on Dec 20. the xbox360 ver of the orange box lacks these stairs despite the fact it got some patches past that date.

[@heavenandhello6629]

Plus, at 13:02, this modern version of Dustbowl ALSO used to not have those stairs back in 2007 either. They were added in a later update. And like I said on my other comment, it’s still like that on the Xbox 360 tf2 for the same reason I said

[@LEDs]

Thanks for the kind words 💙💚❤️

[@NightSideProductionsYTCC]

Remember that Pre-Fortress 2 operated much like the Brotherhood of Arms Team Fortress (TFC), just on the newer engine. (The closest supported example could be TF2C) Note that the Duffel Bag you saw had the Engineer and Medic's gear inside (A hardhat and what looked like a syringe), and the bucket had a Dynamite Bundle and some different Grenades, which Demoman actually had on his sash in the original Teaser for Team Fortress in 2007. I believe that certain classes had specific pickups that only they could grab, as the Duffel Bag having Engineer and Medic's supplies and the bucket having Soldier/Demo's supplies.

[@Aiyoros]

5:38 hmmmm as far as i remember, before TF2 there was only one door in classic's dustbowl, it was hell (and fun to defend) . Also no teleports where available. Ladders are cheap for the GPU/CPU of the era, less geometry to render, and stairs where tricky to make less resource intensive on Wolrdcraft/Hammer.

[@albenstain8843]

Been playing tfc lately and I'm always surprised when we somehow manage to push through a choke point in dustbowl. 8:50 is complete hell with grenades and no uber

[@emilioconde8782]

What do you think about the grenades?

[@albenstain8843]

@@emilioconde8782 Well it sucks if you dont know how to use them or deal with them. I still feel like most of my deaths happen because I dont know how to use them but the enemy does.

[@urbanie]

awesome video my guy, definitely enjoyed it! i think the concept of armor and grenades and those bags and buckets is really cool and i would like to see it in game but they really have to balance it well

[@LEDs]

Maybe Valve thought it was too complex or something, hence why these features no longer exist in TF2.

The bucket is i assume for the scrapped grenades that ended up not coming over from tfc, which i assume is what those ditches on the bunkers were for, catching grenades so you cant as easily flush out a sniper or sentry and have to put a little more effort in.

Choke-y was absolutely the name of the game for TFC. Still loved every minute of it.

the reason the TFC versions of the map where so choke heavy was it would only take blue 1 person with flag to win the round vs the capture point system we know today.

3:24 i actually like this change . but i think the map should be longer so the point is not just next to spawn . and instead of just a drop . you get a broken staircase .

[@Namerco]

Good soldiers with the direct hit could probably carry in the 3rd point of tfc

[@Flour-4]

The bucket and the bag in PF2 are for separate ammo types I assume. The bucket is filled with explosives, therefore being able to refill explosive weapons, and the backpack is filled with gas canisters and what's looks like flares for the flamethrower. Pretty neat, introduces a new challenge for ammo conservation

Anybody else notice that in the first stage of pre fortress 2, the statue honoring the solider/rick may from may 2020 is present on the blu spawn side of the building? I think he is playing on a recreation of the pre fortress 2 map as I doubt that was added back then, unless some dev was planning ahead over 15 years, a timeframe most games die out in.

[@LEDs]

I think the devs might’ve added it in to the pre-build version permanently to honor his memory

[@less3594]

Dude the pre-fortress 2 dustbowl gave me a stroke

[@Pyroshax]

I know the jump cuts are being used to improve the commentary, but the constant jump cuts in the video footage while trying to put together a mental image of how the maps are laid out is super disorienting. I would've much rather seen a full uninterrupted video stream as you walk around the map.

[@LEDs]

I made a second episode featuring Badlands where I followed this advice. Go check it out and let me know what you think.

[@Holyduck777]

The bucket and bag in pre fortress was a grenade pickup. Before the game was released they were planning on putting grenades in the game but took them out because grenade spam sucks

[@hunlepto2239]

I feel ladders were removed due to them interrupting the fluid movement system of TF2 where any movement you do can matter, now your momentum doesn't have to be interrupted by the climbable ladders. Also, it's a real shame they changed map 1 and map 2 so much, I really dig the design with the longer flanks and more defense spots. Map 3 was changed for the better only honestly, but I feel they really dumbed down map 1 and 2 too much.

[@LEDs]
