New player on the field (SFM) 

My first tf2 pub experience was: One guy screaming at me in voice chat for being terrible. Another guy screaming at the first guy to shut up because it was probably my first game A third guy explaining the basics of tf2 via the text chat to me. I treasure that memory.

If only people were actually this nice to new players.

The reason this is my favorite F2P sfm with P2Ps is that for once the P2Ps aren't being douches to the F2Ps. They're actually helping each other out and enjoying the game.

I’m a new player engineer and someone said “I’m so proud of you rice” to me

"I told you free to play players ain't that bad. Now do we shoot him in the face or the crotch." Words of wisdom.

"Look buddy, I'm an- AAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAH!- I'm an engineer."

One time, when I was still new, a guy gave me a strange force of nature, 0 kills on it. He said it was a "welcome gift" At this point, I had known alittle about the game, and yanno, knew about unusual. I was a gibus player,and already had a force of nature. He said it was special though. It tracked how many kill you got with it. Now, over 7000 kills later, I still have that force of nature. I never friended that guy, but if your reading this, in the eyes of an f2p, you might as well have given me an unusual, it seemed so valuable. So, mister Welcome gift guy, If your reading this, I never got to friend you. But all I really wanna say is this: Thank you.

1:26 when you are invisible and cloak in front of pyro

Wait wait wait A video about new players? That isn't making fun of them for being bad? You have my utmost respect.

This is such a heartwarming tale. I was a former F2P myself, until a friend gave me a premium membership gift. Now, I strive to help every F2P player I find. You know why? They're worth helping. Because one day, they'll come back, and thank you for what you've done.

Engi: Pyro! Pyro: huuh Spy: oh nuuu Engi: a spy Pyro: *evil laugh hanks huh huhuhuh* Spy: nouuuu Spy: *death in agony*

may I ask how much health did that sentry have?

Whenever I play as Engineer on a Server, I commonly tend to find atleast one f2p engi building in a random area of the map. I sometimes like to go up to the engi and gift him a jag to speed up his construction rate on his buildings :)

When I was new, so many people were nice to me. I felt excepted and so many people willingly gave me stuff. Now I'm one of the best pyros out there thanks to a wonderful community.

When you realize that the Heavy's muzzle flash isn't even attached to his gun

4:16 is my favorite part 😂 “Hey guys, is it me or is Spy in an awkward position on top of Demo?...” *everyone laughs* 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Bloody hell! Over 20,000 views and nearly 400 subscribers! You guys are absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much. I've come back two months later, and bloody hell am I shocked! I have come a long way from this video animation wise but I am still proud of what people think of this. Thank you al,l you beautiful sods you!!

i would help that lil engineer... im too kind to hate a newbie

When I was still new to tf2, a guy with more than 2000 hours taught me how to play spy. I added him and to this very day he is still helping me learn spy tricks.

As a medic main from day one, people have been super patient with me which I’m super great full for. Like when I’m really tired and don’t play as well as usual, a guy was really understanding and helped me. Another time when I launched a crappy Uber this guy got on voice chat and said that it’s ok and that it happens to everybody once in a while. Will never forget the people that were patient with me 👍

Thank you! As someone who's just starting out with TF2, I was always afraid of joining actual people, because i was afraid of getting flak for being F2P. This gives me a little bit more confidence though.

sniper has a really nice voice uvu

"Hey look, buddy. I'm an en-" *SPY SCREAMING INTENSIFIES*

This is how people should treat eachother. I'm talking about the Spy at the end jk lol

When I was F2P I remember some guys Vote kick me from a server, just because I dominated them XD

Here's my story: I started playing in 2013. I quit because I had other stuff to do and I forgot about the game, until I came back in 2015. I earned lots of money trough these 2 years, enough to buy a plenty of items and get rid of being a F2P. I still remember the times being, well, laughed at and being judged as a player that didn't spend a single cent on the game. Now, I have a fantastic Medic loadout and I always play medic. So when I go to games, I promised to myself something: I will ALWAYS support the F2Ps and make them have fun from the game. I heal everyone from the team, but I always support and Uber them a lot. So, just remember, F2P or P2P, You are still an awesome player. The only difference between us is the practice. ;)

"Oh my cupcakes."

"Hey guys, isn't the spy in a really awkward position atop the Demoman?" Nah, said nobody ever.

Honestly, we P2P shouldnt bully the F2P. We both love Team Fortress 2, and thats what matters. Cosmetics would make you look cool, but it wouldnt make you look cool in the inside.

Being a f2p, is like being a freshman in high school. But once you become a sophomore, aka get a hat or whatever, you become a decorated player.

2:26, far right corner 2:39 bottom left corner 3:20 bottom left corner I don't know if I'm just hallucinating or something, but I see a Blu Scout there.

i like the detail of the f2p not using the laughing taunt and using the wrench taunt at the end

Even tho I'm a p2p, I'm nice to the f2p. Why? You may ask, well, cause their human, human should communicate each other :3

Aww I still remember when players in tf2 had mercy and they were nice to new players. Good time good times. I miss 2010 - 2014 tf2 :(

I love it when animators give sentries emotions and stuff. Like when the sentries don't just spin around aimlessly but they turn and look at stuff. That's the best lmao

When i find a f2p i just start giving him some tips and helping him :3

1:15 What I heard: Engineer: Pyro! Pyro: Huh?! Engineer: A spy! Pyro: (laughing) That's what I thought it was....

This video sums up what I think about Free-to-Plays: they're just inexperienced, and with time, they will become great players. They just need to be given the chance.

Ya know, I was once in a 2fort server where there were these 2 guys on my team and one of them pretended to be the other guy's 9 year old nephew who was new to the game (he later told us that he was 27 and has over 800 hours and that he was just using an alt) and the other was saying that he was just teaching him the ropes and to please go easy on him. I'm guessing that the 2 guys were originally just going to do the usual "pubstoming as a newbie" thing just for laughs, but one of the players on my team asked them if they wanted him to help teach the "nephew" the basics of the game. The guy spent the next 45 mins just explaining the basic mechanics of the game to that guy through vc and then showed him examples. Everyone on the other team cooperated and they didn't touch the 2 of them, at one point they even let the nephew cap while they only presented very weak resistance (you could see that they were faking trying to stop him so that he would feel like he managed to escape despite the enemy teams efforts). the entire server played along just so this guy could teach the basics to a 9 year old playing tf2 for the first time with his uncle, there were always players from the enemy team willing to be target practice so the new guy could get better at aiming, and whenever they needed more than 2 people for an example i always tried to be there to help (i showed the guy the basics of pyrosharking). eventually the nephew admitted that he wasn't actually a new player, but they still thanked that guy immensely, they said that it warmed their hearts to see that there were such nice people in the community and i remember the message that came after that to the letter: "bro you're a fucking angel, don't ever stop doing what you do." to this day, that's the best experience i've ever had on a pub.

got 2 things to say 1: This video is a timeless piece of art. 2 of my favorite games in tf2 where one in which i was teached the basics and extra by a hard-boiled soldier who's name i forgot. and another in which i spent the whole match teaching a demo the ins and outs of what i could teach him about the class. i treasure those memories in my heart, in a nice bottle in a shelf right next to the good ending in bioshock 2 and the BoS (Like, all of the brotherhood.) 2: This video, among other things, inspired me to become a better player and to be understanding to other players, regardless of skill. it even helped me to make the step up to premium, by buying my first hat ever. the Texas Ten Gallon. I appreciate the maker of this video, and every player i have ever played with and against. Remember gamers. you're no one until somebody loves you, and that someone is me. i love you gamers

"But having hats means more time in game and more skill..." Oh shutup! You're skill doesn't matter with that behavior and attitude towards players. "But...but all f2p's are annoying and loud squeakers..." Some* Just because the few does something does not define the many. I've rarely seen F2P's screaming to the top of their lungs or asking annoying questions. The only thing I've seen in majority of them is making it to the top boards. "But they are new to the game and they have no skill..." So? Vote kicking and insults will not help at all. Leave them be and let them learn on their own.

I dont judge F2P players unless they kill me as a sandvich heavy or box spy (friendliest enemys ever) while pay to play players ignore me and recognize me as a friendly. I hate giving a sandvich just as a pyro slices me with a fire axe :(

At 4:16-4:17, CardTrickMedia: “Hey guys, Is it me or has Spy done a rather awkward position on top of demo?” BLU TEAM: *(Looks at RED Spy and Demo)* LMFAO! 😆🤣😂😹

I love it when sfm videos use misc voice lines that aren’t trying to sound like the classes to keep the story going.

I remember the first day I started playing tf2 a random guy found out I was new and gifted me a face full of festive for my engineer, I'll never forget about that guy. *sigh* I love tf2.

Hey we all gotta start from the bottom, so there is nowhere to go but up.

"Hey look buddy Im engine-" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

The Menacingly evil smile of a pro F2P Scout good lord Respect that man already

I remember when I was F2P, not too long ago, actually. I've gotten in 300 hours in since. I practiced with the bots for hours. Then, my favorite class was Soldier, mostly because he was my easiest class. Eventually I did end up getting on a server. It was a control point server. I played as Soldier. It was really fun. Everyone didn't even complain that I was F2P. Medics healed. Heavy's helped me fight. Snipers and Engies prevented spies from backstabbing. It was all great. My team won every round for the time I was on. I never gotten a gift for being F2P, but this game is currently my favorite of all my games. Engineer is my favorite class right now. I also like to play as Scout, Medic, Spy, Soldier, and Pyro. I still play the other classes, though. Anyway, I'm doing great now. I have all the weapons for Engineer, except for the Widow maker, and I have a few hats too. I'm P2P now. Thank you Valve for developing such an amazing community. Seriously, I've had so much fun in this. MvM is one of my favorite game modes. This video basically demonstrates how people treated me, except for the fact that they didn't even know I was F2P.

when he gave the F2P engi the hat... I cried

I remembered i watched this as a kid and then i tried to find this video. And after like 5 years of searching i have finaly found it

4:13 You Have Traded for: A TEXAN HAT!

This video says it all. Not all F2P users are noobs/bad players.

3:20 snaiprr, snaiprr, snaiprr.

That wholesome moment when a friendly engineer trades you a frontier justice and The Jag for free

"I told you free 2 play players aren't that bad, so do we shoot him in the face it the crotch?". That sniper though the only one with the mic

I'm really loving the message behind this.

is it just me or is spy in an awkward positon on demo (in a brit accent)

Not all F2P’s are bad! I’m a F2P myself and I’ve had a blast making friends on TF2 and with others willing to help me out it has been an absolute blast! And this SFM just proves that not all high tier players are gonna be jerks! Because I have some friends with over 100 hours on the game and they’ve helped me with so much in the game itself, this SFM basically speaks for itself!

Loved the Ending and the Entire Vid! CardTrickmedia you should be a Saaxy Winner!

That is the luckiest F2P ever. First he gives him a weapon and then a hat?!?!

this is how people should treat new players

You know I love how much effort you put into this to get a point through about F2Ps. Good job M8

this is a great video and the message it sends is even better so thanks partner

4:08 thats how my face looks like when i got the gibus back then

Bad F2P's: Ones who come from CoD, Battlefield, Halo, etc. Good F2P's: Ones who are recently coming into FPS gaming and choose TF2 cause it actually is like a FPS RPG.

I love helping new players. I have a friend that has been playing non stop and he started last week. Everyone is making fun of him being a f2p but he always kicks their ass. I like your animation. It shows the best in people.

this was fun to watch! good job M8! you solved some practical problems here.

Wish I could experience the feeling of being new again ;_;

And that is what I'm thinking about f2p - they erent bad, they new and they learning, sometimes they are better than premium players

4:22 Me: SPY! Merasmus: That Spy Is Pretty Gay

only if every tf2 player was as nice as that engie!

Theme of Story: Help Out New Players.

Lol, I never got help when I was new, much less a hat. XD

Legend says Red Spy is still saying “Sniper” til this very day.

0:56 What do you mean “What in Sam hill were you thinking”, *THAT SOLDIERS A SPY O_O*

Too many of these videos end with 2 players becoming friends and one of them giving the other a hat

One of my (former) friends is F2P, and I'm sure he's kicking arse at Sniper. I already knew this message ever since F2P came; there can ALWAYS be a new player that's already good at the game.

I remember when someone taught me how to rocket jump for the first time, it was incredible, and he was so proud of me.

You can always tell a Texan. but you can't tell him much love that line

Brilliant point on F2P's... they aren't all bad, some have potential, they just need a helping hand (Note: not all of them, some are naturally talented) And besides it isn't always their skill, TF2 isn't exactly the most smoothest running game on lower tier graphics cards, so they might just be lagging out. gonna like and subscribe... brilliant video, keep it up ;)

That ending... it was amazing! xD

This has inspired me to give so many hatless players their first hats and I love it

This is one of my favourite SFM’s.

Ahh the memories when I was F2P. I won't forget those good P2Ps who teaches me how to play as a better class than before... :,)

I wish more people treat newb F2P's like this. There's a difference between being new and being bad. If your track record involves more than a year and has a decent amount of items, and you still are shouted at for being bad, it's your fault. However, if you're new, you just need practice to get to the point of glory, and helpfully, you'll have help on the way.

It’s 2020 and this SFM is still my favorite

We all start as new players. We learn, we grow and we accept help. Now its time we help new players and watch them grow.

That spy has the slowest sapping sapper ever :P

This is the first time someone makes a video about newbies in TF2 that actually do great work.

and THAT’S how a community should work, help and work with each other :333

This will always be so good to watch

This got me right in the feels, man. It makes me think of the people who helped me when I was a new player.

Unfortunately I admittingly am a F2P player, but this is pretty heartwarming when it comes to those players who understand the concepts of how each class works. Although I struggle with engineer and spy, I still try to understand how to use them in a way they are meant to be played.

Oh man I've done this before and felt so good to help a fellow beginner he was using engineer and I taught him some sentry spots and tips. I offered him some weapons and gave him a hong kong cone. He was overjoyed to have those items and up until now he is still playin the game with me. Thats why TF2 is a timeless masterpiece!

0:25 That need to be a new taunt kill for Demoman's Nessie's Nine Iron!

Engie: Pyro! Spy: (Oh no.) Pyro: Mmf? Engie: A Spy! Pyro: *Delighted muffled laughter and gleeful mumbles*

finally, SOMEBODY realises that f2p players can have skill!

This show's that there are still great players in the battlefield, f2p, or p2p, it also show's that some people have great hearts. For example, that engi just installed the game, and he got his first hat. Thank you for this.

you know if a new player join a game it is always nice to give people some of your things to help them out
