Aimbot Assault [SFM] 

Pro tip. Some of the bots are programmed to only shoot if they can hit the head. If you turn around and look down, this places your head hitbox behind the player model, making it so bots cannot actually headshot you. In many cases, they just won't shoot. Works wonders on good sniper players too.

I love the small touch how all the aimbot snipers are literally just robots and have the particles and sounds of one.

Turning TF2’s biggest nuisance into an absolute masterpiece of a short action movie, my guy I need more of this

I always love these depictions of Scout, as under the douchey facade he puts on there’s a genuine fighter and acrobat and it shows in animations like this

I have two things to say about this one. First of all, I can clearly see "Rise of the Epic Scout" metaphorically screaming for about a half of this video, and as a scout main i can relate to it Secondly, this animation is pretty damn good.

Honestly, the scout moves, attacks, and strategic thinking really gets some Elden Ring vibes.

"Only the scout, mastered all the weapons could stop the ruthless aimbots, and when the world needed him the most... He returned"

0:31 That would such a cool idea for a demo shield! Instead of giving you a charge attack you can raise it to tank a certain amount of non fire based damage with the charge bar being it's 'health' And you can't regain shield healh unless you have it lowered for 5 seconds THEN it starts to recover. It might be broken It might not. But it would be fun no matter what.

Scout single-handedly plowing through the first wave of bots made him look more like a real fighter instead of a douchebag that we know. Also i like the fact that Heavy's minigun was actually accurate and wasn't throwing bullets around. The whole animation is simple yet so cool!

This is amazing! Just 4 minutes of really well-made action! The posing of the scout everytime he fires a gun was really nice.

Incredible animation, I really enjoyed scout using all of the tools at his disposal to take all of the snipers down. Really shows how even if scout acts like a moron most of the time, he is still a merc, and a damn good one at that. The helicopter scenes were amazing and really brought a new flavor of death and destruction and is a unique way to introduce the heavy as a true killing machine. Keep up the amazing work!

This gives me Rise of the Epic Scout vibes. In fact this gives me Crash Maul vibes with all the action and style. Great work!

This is the only way the scout should be portrayed in my eyes. An unapologetic badass.

This guy is a lot like Epic Scout, he's got potential.

Ran into something like this and it made for one of the greatest stories in tf2 to stay with me. I'd joined a casual match (cart push) where every human player on the red team was gone and it was only bots. Blu team, though, were all still human... and one guy in particular with a pocket of people started to say 'go engineer!' and started to make a defensive line to stop the bots from pushing their cart. Everyone on our team, 15 players, formed the greatest defense unit seen, fixing each other's turrets, helping our brothers upgrade, staying in stock. It was a hell of a battle, but we held them back... but then... round two came. And we were the attackers. At first, they got us killed, blasted a good number of us, most didnt stand a chance in our own spawn... but some of those glorious bastards got a foot hold in. We even got a two medic and one heavy Uber charge in to mess with their flow. We moved our wall forwards, up and up, through the tunnel, out the wooden bridge, getting point on point. Sometimes we were stopped, but we found a way to keep going. Then we got the the final area, a full on open range with high grounds everywhere for the bots. They picked us off like mad and soon... we lost all our time and went into OVERTIME. On our last stand and a heartened shout, we kept people touching that cart and pushed like there was no tomorrow. The heavy medics combo charged in, engineers planting turrets at every ledge and watching with my two eyes... we pushed that cart down the hole. We had won. There were roars of cheers and celebrations amongst the explosion of the bot pit was victory. A we ran for the after game lap and gunned down them bots... and we were hopeful. Those bots... they were legion. But us? We were the WALL. The Texas Front.

2:40 stealth chopper Gunner be like Nice scoretreak from call of duty

It's not perfect, but deserves so much more attention. Keep it up man

never have i thought a guy who makes bots would make a sfm about the bot situation but despite that, its a good animation and you now have my respect as a person who wants to be an animator (idk how much is that worth tbh)

3:48 “Why we still here, just to suffer.”

I remember the one time we tried to seriously win against an all-bot sniper team after they'd booted all their human players. Defending the payload was simple enough: all Engies, hidden behind walls while the sentries did everything. Attacking was another matter: we had a heavy, a soldier, and everyone else was a Vaxx Medic playing "guess when the snipers are going to show" to try to stop our Heavy from dying as we huddled behind the cart while the Heavy stood on top.

This is so goddamn good, holy merry mother of Joseph. You deserve A LOT of attention for the work you put on the animation.

I want to think that this video implies a lore where RED started to manufacture aimbots to win the Gravel Wars against BLU and now BLU is on a campaign to destroy every aimbot facility RED owns.

2:29 shit just went 0 to a hundred real fuking fast

3:35 Predator-1: Attention there is a big explosion in the center of the red base. Commander of the Blues: Great blue, the commander of the reds remains and I have a feeling that they have just started.

if only it were that easy

Accurate representation of tf2:Scout dies to bot malds switches to Demoknight with gun Also rare occurrence of a Scout pushing point

I'm someone who's recently been trying to get into tf2 (I don't really play fps's, but I love everything about tf2 from the story to the gameplay), the bot situation has been devastating on me. It really makes it difficult to learn the game when every casual match is filled to the brim with bots. It's like expecting someone to learn how to climb a tree, but you shoot them in the fucking head everytime they leave spawn.

0:18 That an Epic Scout reference?

I hope you don't mind the comparison: You have your own style of animating and I noticed some Crash Maul vibes on it and I mean it in a good way. An awesome action-packed sfm! *Spoilers*: I really enjoyed the helicopter part, made things much more exciting! Would love to see more! :)

Love the souls dodge rolls at 1:38

This feels like a perfect TF2 war film. I love this animation

3:29 now that's taking out the trash!

Not going to lie this video will be become very famous in few years.

Man the poses that scout makes are top tier stuff amazing job

1:03 fucking RANGED PARRY

4:10 : the dude that cheats himself and has bought bot Immunity (yes... yes these people exist - no, hedidn't get kicked by his team untill the bots took over...)

0:01 that cso theme bring back my childhood🥲

A masterpiece, as always!

My man, you HAVE to continue this series. The animation is banger, that part with Heavy in the helicopter clutching, and that cliffhanger had no reason to go that hard

Love the Rise of the Epic Scout vibes here! Absolutely amazing animation! Can't wait for what's next!

Very old school type sfm i love it

you could make a team fortress 2 animation as if it were a 2010 animation, I liked that time of the sfm animations they were quite simple with only using the voices of the characters or putting texts on the screen talking together about some subject that was relevant to the time .

bro did a close air support 02:42

1:52 Karl Fairburne!?

Ah yes. a helicopter in tf2.

Glad to hear the music from Counter Strike Extreme lols

The gun poses are awesome and I love the detail of nuts and bolts spilling out of the aimbots when they're shot, very good job!

Scout's shoes looks so different 0:42

0:53 this part has meme potential

DAMN, THIS SFM IS S-TIER NO CAP, IT DESERVES IT!

At 02:46, how did you get the ragdolls to "ragdoll"? It looks so real and not hand-drawn.

Awesome work dude! Can't wait to see what you do next

I have never witnessed good cinematography like this in a basic tf2 map

This is beautiful... I love me the rare Gmod or SFM movie that makes Scout a badass and not the Punching Bag character for everyone else to pick on or physically lash out on. So sick of that crap. With a character as fast as Scout, that makes him perfect for fast-paced Action films like this.

ive always wanted to make an animation like this of 1 character taking on all the odds, looks amazing, you're an inspiration

Bro, you almost have a(n) similar/identical animation style like Crash Maul… And I actually like that. Brings back memories from _“Rise of the Epic Scout”_ and _”Meet the Rabid taming Engineer”_

Great animation man! I am thankfully that they algorithm has blessed me with this hidden gem. cant wait for your next work! :)

This is to honor those who survived the aimbot crisis of 2020-2022

0:43 Epik Scout is crying on the sidelines

Even though I don't play TF2 anymore, but I still play fps games, and the way scout goes against the sniper bot army is exactly what I feel like every time I successfully flank a full team of snipers using wise movements

holy shit this was badass this should be the saxxy winner of 2023

The ultimate skilled scout bryson is back :v

I've never played tf2 before but I love it so much that I know the Blu team sniper is actually a medic. either that or it's an actual sniper face skin

dude the animation is so smooth, i hope this blows up! great work :)

Good work man! I love the animation and story!

Now that, was amazing. I love how you told a story with so little words

This is very good! From the camera movement and the models animation, cant wait to see you hitting the big leagues!

This is a very well made SFM. My favourite art is how Scout's movment just OOZES determination. He is no linger the nuisance that keeps running around and missing. He is the hero here, come to do what BLU could not. The only thing that I think could improve is the whole aimbot thing. They always go for the head, so I thought a way of showing how smart Scout here is is by making gear specifically made to counter headshots, like making a helmet. Or maybe that could be in a possible sequal. Here rhe gibus snipers are the low level aimbot, ans can be outmaneuvered with good movement and use of shields. Maybe next time the aimbots develop and they have to make bodyarmor, etc. Looking forward to seeing what you do next!

Being able to pick up other ally's weapons even as other classes would be a neat game mode. It's balanced because you need to find them on the field unless you have a friend who can kill bind and give it to you. Then in that case you can make the match a death match where player's die permanently until the next round. Idk, but a pretty neat idea.

Animation improvement 💯

This was brilliant, my guy. I was really rooting for Scout the entire time.

I'm looking forward to more of this. Gonna be completely honest, I sort of just stumbled upon this video. I am glad that I did because it has nice and smooth motions for the characters and the video as a whole.

I liked the idea of ​​carrying the bomb through the air. Imagine this like a gamemode

okay this SFM is really good

I'm glad people still make these, nice work :)

This was just plain epic! You've earned a subscriber!

Always enjoy seeing some amazing Action-focused SFM for TF2. And this is definitely a great one, it's got a style reminiscent of Crash Maul but has it's own ideas that I really enjoyed.

how do you have so little views?? this is amazing!

I know I'm late to this party, but I like how ya took notes on 'Rise of Epic Scout' here. great work overall.

I see a lot of inspiration taken from Crash Maul in terms of animation style and camera work, which you should be proud of because not many people can tackle this style! The one thing I immediately noticed tho, is the lack of custom lighting. You pretty much used the default daylight on the map which is alright, but things like firing a gun, explosions, and being on fire radiates lighting which wasn't present here, so I hope you can improve on that :D

imagine if a scout main actually did this in tf2

Really good animation!

The amount of nostalga I've gotten from the soundtracks. I remember playing nexon zombies during 2016 with my potato toshiba, thanks for reigniting a memory and great sfm!

scout gaming This was honestly AWESOME Splendid job!

This is very well made!

Love that, despite the heli raining hell on the bots, they don't forget about scout and medic and one still gets a shot at them. Can't wait for pt2

This was really well done! Great job!

gives me epic scout vibes this is amazing holy good job dude keep it up and the movement is swift

Holy hell scouts posing during action scenes felt so friggin dynamic, Fantastic work!

These are the heroes we need, and the heroes we deserve

Loved the animation and can't wait to see what's to come, keep doing what you're doing, it's awesome 😊

Now, this is refreshing SFM great work!

The ending has a Westworld reset feel

Man, that duel shotgun and buckler combo goes pretty hard against those bots. The rest of this short film is overall awesome!

Nice animation also I dig in that you added the CSO musics into this I respect that! 👍

This is really well done, keep up the good work!

Reminds me of the old "Epic scout" animation, very nice. Hope to see more like this from you soon.

when bots invade a community server:

I really like this animation as it’s action packed, well detailed in animation, and gives a big middle finger to bots. I can also see some Epic scout (crash maul) inspiration and elements there so that’s nice. Great job! 👍

Man, i really loved the concept and animation. Something about the scout poses that he makes while dodging or running are so cool looking and kinda mes me remember some b type action movie , nice work!
