What's your favorite Tf2 fact? Here's the full version of the track! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NfR9fXgLfm4.htmlsi=pCYcKbWM2fUMxoRy
It's the second installment in the Dirty Harry series, and it's apparently called that because of the Magnum revolver that the main character liked to use!
I knew I wasnt crazy when noticed its a unique version for this trailer. But whats crazier is that I SWEAR, I actually heard it in the menu when you start up tf2. At first it sounded nothing like any song I recognized until it clicked that it was from MTS, Ive never heard it play in menu since, I dont even know if I even heard it at all and Im confused...
Very interesting! What year did you hear it in? It's possible that it was there for a brief time after the trailer because they would typically have a license to use it for a period.
Similarly, the song played in Meet the Engineer, titled "More Gun", is very similar to a song called "Someone Else's Song" by Wilco. Why More Gun can be included in Fight Songs but not Magnum Force, let alone three times, is beyond me
I actually made another short about that, and a full video about tf2 music facts! But yeah I don't get it, probably because magnum force is owned by a pretty aggressive label (I got my analysis video blocked because I had it play for 15 seconds) So I assume Wilco either doesn't have a record label and gave them the okay or the record label itself was friendly. Here's the video if you're interested! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E3uNptzU8iI.htmlsi=E9H1w7YUK96oF1A6
It's a really interesting choice from the composer, I suppose it's a call back to one of the biggest movies that probably inspired tf2's soundtrack. Pretty cool!
I'm still waiting on the cover art for the new version, but you can find the old one on Spotify titled "Professional Standards". open.spotify.com/track/3ZdEWpHtMGup64hvbhR12M
@RealVCT Always has been. There never was a clean version of that track, and everyone pretended that Magnum Force is basically Sniper's track, which just isn't true. So I made one myself!
Ah, Dirty Harry. Do I feel lucky? Well do ya, punk? Childhood film with Magnum Force when I was six-seven. He drove a ‘68 Ford Custom 500 Sedan in the first film as his main car while in Magnum Force, it was a 1972 Ford LTD Convertible and a 1971 Ford Custom 500 Sedan.
The first film was released in 1971 while Magnum Force was released in 1973. The first film is about Harry Callahan trying to hunt down Scorpio, who kills people for demands/randoms. Mt favorite scene is the part where he forces a bus driver to drive somewhere (a mill factory). Clint Eastwood or Harry Callahan jumps on the roof and executes him twice. First shooting a kid, and second one brutally killing him into a river.
The second film, Magnum Force, is about a group of vigilante officers run by Dr. Briggs to kill criminals or people who think it is good to break the law and not get justice in court for it. This increases the number of murders in San Francisco, causing Harry Callahan to stop the group after he says that they’ve misjudged him. He becomes a target and two car chases ensue with a 1970 Cadillac Fleetwood 75 and a 1972 Ford Custom 500 Sedan. In the end of the film, Harry Callahan explodes Dr. Briggs’ 1972 Ford Custom 500 Sedan after inserting a bomb into it. He says “You’re a killer Harry, a maniac.” When the car explodes, he says the iconic catchphrase “A man’a got to know his limitations.” Mid-way in the film, he says to Doctor Briggs or someone else “A good man knows his limitations.” After he says he has never holstered out his gun once.
The high pitched guitar almost always just gave me whiplash I dont dislike it but just doesnt really _fit_ yknow Well, we know, but the ai doesnt lmao Mick's cooking is too great for ai to understand
It's often never that simple, it's still considered a cover or derivative work so you'll still need a license. But with this track you do have a point in that it would have separated it just a little bit more. It's already pretty different so that could've helped. I'm assuming valve didn't want the hassle and the chance of getting sued
@@TheM3dicOfTF2 What do you mean exactly? I've looked around and it doesn't seem to have a specific origin. And the track itself is available on RU-vid. I'm thinking about remaking it with modern instruments.
