  Do the German voices count too?
I don't regularly play the German version but it's fun at times and you can definitely imagine my face when I found out that Spy's voice actor also did Spanky Ham in the German dub of Drawn Together.

Given how immature both of them can be ... Makes sense.
Just imagine the voice in the attached clip with an over the top Italian accent and you have Spy.
>> No. 1541
Soldier's voice actor has had several small roles in animation in the past (like one of the guys from the retirement home in Up, Zapp Brennigan in the Futurama movies or Gizmoduck in Darkwing Duck). He also voiced Abraham Lincoln in Sam & Max. He's one of those voice actors that you hear often but never in major roles.
Couldn't find a clip on Youtube, sorry.
>> No. 1542
  The German voice of Scout and Demoman is one of the worst cast roles I've ever seen. He voiced guys like Linguini from Ratatouille for crying out loud! How is he supposed to sound like a badass Scottish drunkard?

I mean ... Just listen to him. He's a really nice voice actor, but NOT Scout or Demoman! (You can hear him from 0:50 onwards)
>> No. 1544
Engie's and Medic's German voice actor (his Engie is FAR better than his Medic though) voiced people like Pan in Pan'S Labyrinth, Porco in Porco Rosso and some small roles in Star Trek TNG, VOY and DS9.

Fun fact: ALL of the German TF2 voices were featured in a Star Trek series at some point. Needless to say, my inner Star Trek nerd is pleased.

Also sadly, there's next to nothing to say about Sniper and Heavy because even though I like their voices (Heavy sounds PERFECT in German!) I don't know the names of their voice actors. I haven't found a way to obtain them, either.
>> No. 1546

The Sniper's VA is called John Patrick Lowrie. He is married to the Announcer/Combine PA/GLaDOS/Ellen McLain, and features in a few minor roles in HL2.

Heavy's VA is also the Demoman's VA: Gary Shwartz. Incredible range on the guy, even more astonishing when you learn he originally trained as a mute.

Medic did Pyro and Cyclops in X-Men Origins (game), Beagle in Fallout New Vegas, like 8 characters in the Clone Wars series, one of the Primes in Revenge of the Fallen, the narrator in Meet the Spartans, the voice of Davy friggin Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean, Captain America in Battle for New York, Merovingian, Vamp and Agent Thompson in the MAtrix video game, at least 30 different voices in EverQuestII and the Prophet of Regret from Halo 2.

Shit. It'd probably be easier to list off what he wasn't in.

Makani said it's not because of the VA, but because Valve themselves are still trying to figure out which direction they want to take the script in for Meet the Medic.

Prawnsy beta-tested Portal 2 and says she's seen Meet The Medic, but refuses to give any spoilers. I'm thinking of asking her just if he came back to do the voice (that's not a spoiler, right?)

He is directing/acting in his own movie now, as well as working on Gears of War III/Batman: The Brave and The Bold (as random villains), so it's understandable.

Speaking of BaTB, in one episode, B'wanna Beast wrestled a wildcat and looked very similar to Saxton Hale...
>> No. 1615
If I were you, I wouldn't ask at all. Isn't knowing that it's in-production enough to then infer that Medic's lines have been or will be recorded?
>> No. 1621
>>1615

I was leaning heavily on the side of not asking, but I have a tiny fear that he'll be replaced and it won't sound the same. I doubt that'll happen, though.

Also, if I was lucky enough to be granted the privilege of witnessing what they've got done so far, I'd honor the promise to keep my mouth shut, too.

I still didn't ask, and I'm not going to, okay?
>> No. 1662
>>1613

No, I don't think it's a spoiler to ask.

Thanks for the information regarding Prawnsy! I feel (slightly) reassured that I'll be seeing "Meet the Medic" soon!

Let's hope that we see it soon!
>> No. 1664
meet the medic was about 90% done before they scrapped it the first time. This time, it's in very very very rough stages. Temporary voices, unpolished animations, everything.

And that's the extent of my knowledge.
>> No. 1667
You kids keep talking about how Valve is going back and forth about Medic. But what about PYRO? I bet they'll release it before Medic.
>> No. 1969
I hope they put Pyro out first too. What my asumption always was that valve wanted to milk weather or not he was a female for what it was worth. I dunno, for the longest time it seemed like the game was going to fall out of style befor the movies even came out. Medic kinda gave me hope though.

I just heard that Robin Atkin Downes, the voice of the Medic in Team Fortress 2, is gonna be voicing Mumm-Ra in the new Thundercats series. That gives me another reason to want to watch the show besides "Oh my god, they're bringing the Thundercats back!" I loved that show when I was little and I'm interested in seeing what they're gonna do with it now. The trailers looked pretty promising to me. Robin Atkin Downes playing Mumm-Ra just makes it even more interesting. I hope he does a great job.

I also want someone to make a TF2 KOTH map that's Mumm-Ra's lair with the big creepy pool as the control point for some reason.

Robin Atkin Downes was also Baron Zemo in the recent Avengers cartoon series. It's lovely, one time I put it on, closed my eyes, and pretended it was the Medic.

... Yes. Yes I am a dork.

He was also one of these creepy baby things.
>> No. 7542
>>7534
I never got a chance to see Thundercats as a kid, so I'm curious to see the show for that and a bunch of other reasons.

>>7540
That's another show I need to start watching. Zemo doesn't actually have a German accent though, does he?
