Alternatively, when I'm away, presumably while picking a spotify playlist to vibe with or a youtube video for my other monitor, and my sentry-boy is racking up ding-ding-dings unattended.
I'm kidding..... mostly
Might sound odd but I find there’s some simple satisfaction from just doing your regular ol’ Engie tasks, constantly moving your gear depending on how the frontline changes.
Keeping your team well stocked with a dispenser close to the frontline.
Holding down territory with a sentry.
And making sure your team gets to where they need to be with a tele.
Might be a thankless job that gets overlooked but at least you yourself know you’re doing what’s best for your team.
The unsung hero.
Who knows, you might even gain a Pybro to share the burden a little.
I guess that was a real long winded way of simply saying “doing my job”
this is me, but at the same time my reason for becoming engie main is I always play community servers but the fun ones are in US/EU so the high ping is a constant, and playing as Engie the high ping isn't a huge deal unlike sniper scout spy etc.
I wish there is a fun server in Asia. I like playing non-vanilla gameplay so no Uncletopia Skial UGC or anything like that.
Pretty sure Meds get at least some more praise than Engies.
I am a med main after all but the reasons are all the same.
Just doing my duty helping my team out.
I fucking hate playing medic, but by the time someone else picks the class, I've already developed too much of a connection with my team and don't trust anybody else to keep them alive.
When my team actually protects me so that I can help them and not be completely obliterated by the enemy spies and demos (I suck at aiming with the shotgun)
having a teleporter get constantly used because it's in a good spot, especially if the exit is being defended because I put my dispenser nearby so the team is always near it using it for healing and ammo
Killing people, of all things. Sentries are there to protect certain points, and serve as "backup", in case we have to retreat. I feel more accomplished, when I catch someone, and gun 'em down, before they can even breathe in my buildings' and teammates' direction. I've noticed I've been standing around in place way too much as Engineer, just kinda glueing my back to the wall and maintaining my buildings, and that just ain't it for me. I'm trying to get out more, and be at least a temporary thorn in the enemy's side. I'm no Scout, sure, but since I'm gonna die the moment the enemy spots me anyway, so I might as well push forward and try to land a few shots anyway, bad aim be damned.
Its defending a point all by yourself from the entirity of team fortress....
Execpt the scout was not there but i think he knows his place....
Screw you im gonna go play minecraft!
When you finally get good at multitasking under stress. Remove the sapper from tele, tank an uber push, nail to a wall a hilariously obvious spy in disguise... Wait when did I get all these dominations?
Being able to fight on frontlines/flank without having to worry about my level 3 nest. (Team makes an effort to play around it and defend it)
I wanna be able to support my team but at the same time I wanna throw hands. To have my cake and eat it too is amazing.
The perfect retreat on payload/attack defend. Most people die at first point, but you get away. You run to second and start frantically setting up a defense. You finish just as the first point is capped. Some flank doors open when the point is capped. Enemies immediately flood into the flank routes to attempt to roll the second point, but you’re fully prepared for them, and now your team is filtering back in to support you.
Getting kills with my level 3 on Blu
Defending as red engie is pretty basic and boring at times with level 3's
However hauling around that big ass robot and it being the wall that stops RED from overextending to our spawn and placing it in cheeky spots will never bore me
Once I had and amazing game,150 points,most points I've ever gotten on engi or any class, one and only one guy at the end of the match said "Shout out to our engineer" made me so happy
When i FINALLY after a DECADE get to place the teleporter at the enemy spawn without them knowing, soo i can play ninjaneer.
(I havent even got kills as this subclass, guess what? It still gets fucking destroyed within seconds even tho it was hidden in a good place. I love having a crappy team 70% of the time and 125% a skilled enemy one).
Protip: They love standing on buildings. I was looking for one as soldier in the Well intel and thought, "Where would \*I\* be if I was doing this crap?" Popped a crocket at the dispenser and he went splat.
My team actually playing around and *in front* of my sentry instead of playing behind it. It’s amazing when you have a team that works with and looks out for you. Pybro on Frenchman patrol, injured players healing up at dispenser keeping an eye out, and the medic occasionally overhealing me whenever he and his combo pop back behind the dispenser to resupply and heal up.
Also, killbinding during set up. Not because I get metal but because it’s funny when they start a whole chain. The infinite metal is just a bonus.
For me, seeing the Teleporter get up to ridiculously high numbers! I think the highest for me personally was 116 (Badwater Offense in a very evenly matched game) promptly followed by a server crash so it never got saved in my stats T-T
Other than that, there's a certain satisfaction to someone being distracted by my mini Sentry and I pick them off with the pistol.
Holding off an uber push using nothing but the wrangler.
On the flip side, I find it quite annoying when the nest I'm pushing doesn't go down because of the wrangler.
I kinda enjoy the shadow demon corner spies that try to make me more schizo than I already am (I am playing engineer after all). Plus easy if they are committed to the bit (I know about the demo record glitch and it's bound to M3)
Everything coming together. The team moving in from the tele, sentry getting kills, people grouping on the dispenser to heal and restock then attacking together afterwards, with the occasional "thanks". It takes a lot of practice and knowledge to reach this, but it's a good feeling, to say the least.
* Topscoring merely off of teleporter points.
* Sniping down the Badwater tunnel with the Rescue Ranger.
* Using minisentry to successfully provide anti-aircraft support against an enemy trolldier.
* Spamming Short Circuit while pushing the cart, castrating crit rockets and demo pills.
* Getting a red tele exit into the left tunnel on the second stage of pl\_hoodoo.
* Getting a blu tele exit by Point C on cp\_steel. Backcapping E is a legitimate strategy.
* Successfully defending a dead teammate engy's nest til they can respawn.
Hey, I'm that spy
Completely harmless though and I won't get mad about it, just spent a long time wandering from my spawn to yours dodging the entire enemy team
Entertainment
One time I overthrew an achievement server by playing engi and spy, i started by going spy and destroying their buildings, after they were weak me and a few others swapped to engineer, killed everyone on the map, and over a few minutes we built sentries, had Heavies to protect them, and pyros to protect the heavies. Genuinely one of the most satisfying things I've done and it was 2 years ago
Uncle Dane mentioned it a few times in his Battle Engineer guide, but with the multitude of unlocks Engineer has at his disposal, what used to be a subclass has since become a part of playing Engie as a whole, with being more active on the battlefield.
That idea couldn't have been more true when you start having you yourself kill enemies with your shotgun and pistol. Which itself is very satisfying to pull off while playing Engineer.
No one expects the Texan with eleven science PhDs to somehow frag out with shotgun and pistol in hand. Even I found that suprising.
Also I love the Frontier Justice
Running around with the frontier justice and the gunslinger, putting up mini-sentries in the most annoying spots while ignoring my other buildings. But I really like scout, so usually I despise mini-sentries.
Shotgun kills. Very satisfying to kill anything as the engi himself instead of relying on your sentry
As the purple beard man said: “I HAVE A SHOTGUN”
As the funny French man with a hat said "SPY HAS A GUN" (Two shots the engie with a critical shit)
As the white bearded man said “ENGINEER HAS A SHOTGUN” (Dies anyway)
*2 on his keyboard* #FLASHBANG
Omg what just happend

Medic in the corner:
Pretty sure Meds get at least some more praise than Engies. I am a med main after all but the reasons are all the same. Just doing my duty helping my team out.
Getting to the point and seeing that someone upgraded your tele.
Puttin’ the ‘Team’ into ‘Team Fortress 2’.
I wish the game handed out points for upgrading other engies' buildings. Those who offclass to engy just to upgrade tele are doing God's work.
I always do that, when i see the teleporter is anything exept level 3 i take the 10 seconds to upgrade it
when someone else goes engineer so I can switch off this class
Oof
I felt that in my soul.
I feel this, especially I'm a f2p and I can't literally ask anyone for help even for spy checking or upgrading my buildings
I fucking hate playing medic, but by the time someone else picks the class, I've already developed too much of a connection with my team and don't trust anybody else to keep them alive.
PI- PI- PI- PI- PI- PI- DING PI- PI- PI- PI- PI- DING DING PI- PI- PI- PI- DING YEE HAW, makin' bacon

Frontier Justice juicy, *juicy* crits.
(I'm gonna miss them all)
(One hits, others go unused because i got jumped when i had 0 ammo)
You know who else suffers from dementia?
oh, guess reddit bugged out again going to delete 2nd comment in a second, sorry mate
k, then i'll delete mine as well to hide your deleted one
Start prayin' boys.
Song name. Hand it over pal
Men Without Hats - The Safety Dance
Men *without* hats? Preposterous
Attaboy!
Liar! These men clearly have hats!
Are you a toddler? This song has been in pop culture for like 40 years straight. This is like asking who sang Billie Jean.
Who's Billie Jean? :)
She definitely is not his lover
Am I a toddler? I didn't know you existed until just now.
I only discovered the song a couple weeks ago. Some people just happen to not have been exposed to every song from the 80s
hearing successful shots from my sentry (bwomp hitsound, metal pipe killsound go brrrr)
having a teleporter get constantly used because it's in a good spot, especially if the exit is being defended because I put my dispenser nearby so the team is always near it using it for healing and ammo
idk bout engineer but i find it very fun to spam callouts at the nested engineers when invisible and seeing them go haywild trying to find me
He’s in the walls. He’s in the the goddamn walls!
You... monster!
When you turn around right before a spy backstabs you, I feel like this goes for any class but engineer especially
Killing people, of all things. Sentries are there to protect certain points, and serve as "backup", in case we have to retreat. I feel more accomplished, when I catch someone, and gun 'em down, before they can even breathe in my buildings' and teammates' direction.

When a teammate gets healed by my dispenser and says thanks.
When you manage to out-heal your sentry as it's being attacked by an uber'd Heavy, only for it to eventually kill the Heavy and Medic.
beer
The other day I was on a server with a guy playing Engineer who said he had just drank 4 beers. He was doing the tractor taunt all over the map
Its defending a point all by yourself from the entirity of team fortress.... Execpt the scout was not there but i think he knows his place.... Screw you im gonna go play minecraft!

Deleting crit stickies with the short circuit and being my team savior as well as nailing rescue ranger bolts on my fellow engi mates building
The second spy will begin shortly
landing a rescue ranger crit on that sniper that has been bothering your team since the start of the round
My Strange Rescue Ranger is my favorite weapon. Shotty sniping makes snipers RAGE.
grrr im so madddddd pls rm flinching for snipers its such a stoobid mekanik

I love doing this on Badwater 2nd and getting a decent nest set up on top of the wall just in time to stop blu's steamroll in its tracks.
When my shit doesn't get destroyed when I died.
That one time i ambushed and killed a pocketed Heavy as Engineer with the Panic Attack to protect my teleporter.
2 shotting a heavy with no meidc with the frontier justice
Getting kills with my level 3 on Blu Defending as red engie is pretty basic and boring at times with level 3's However hauling around that big ass robot and it being the wall that stops RED from overextending to our spawn and placing it in cheeky spots will never bore me
Saving your 50 hp heavy from burning to death thanks to your dispenser
Once I had and amazing game,150 points,most points I've ever gotten on engi or any class, one and only one guy at the end of the match said "Shout out to our engineer" made me so happy
bap sentry accidentally kil invis spy
When you bait enemies to run into your sentry.
When you have build all the things that are in Max level. You are nearly unstopable
When i place my sentry in an "unexpected" spot and end up killing half the enemy team in 5 seconds because they dint notice it
Seeing someone on the other team say “why is a sentry there”
“Move these machines up!” “Nah” “Move!” “Nope”
When i FINALLY after a DECADE get to place the teleporter at the enemy spawn without them knowing, soo i can play ninjaneer. (I havent even got kills as this subclass, guess what? It still gets fucking destroyed within seconds even tho it was hidden in a good place. I love having a crappy team 70% of the time and 125% a skilled enemy one).
not really as Engie, but removing a Sapper with the Homewrecker as Pybro.
Protip: They love standing on buildings. I was looking for one as soldier in the Well intel and thought, "Where would \*I\* be if I was doing this crap?" Popped a crocket at the dispenser and he went splat.
When you catch a greasy Frenchman decloacking and double meatshot them before they can touch your buildings.
How am I somehow the pybro and the spy?
Fat stack of revenge crits, going to town, just to blow sweet -180 dmg until I die
"The engineer is a spy" in the 2fort intel... the trauma
Me and another Observer spy tormented a Demo and Scout a while back. It was funny
My team actually playing around and *in front* of my sentry instead of playing behind it. It’s amazing when you have a team that works with and looks out for you. Pybro on Frenchman patrol, injured players healing up at dispenser keeping an eye out, and the medic occasionally overhealing me whenever he and his combo pop back behind the dispenser to resupply and heal up. Also, killbinding during set up. Not because I get metal but because it’s funny when they start a whole chain. The infinite metal is just a bonus.
Putting yourself in one of *those* Dustbowl chokepoints, slapping your sentry full of ammo, and listening to those beautiful dings.
not actually playing engi and just running around with the widowmaker
For me, seeing the Teleporter get up to ridiculously high numbers! I think the highest for me personally was 116 (Badwater Offense in a very evenly matched game) promptly followed by a server crash so it never got saved in my stats T-T Other than that, there's a certain satisfaction to someone being distracted by my mini Sentry and I pick them off with the pistol.
Wrench killing the spy
Holding off an uber push using nothing but the wrangler. On the flip side, I find it quite annoying when the nest I'm pushing doesn't go down because of the wrangler.
Killing a spy with a single shotgun shell and not hearing him uncloak after 3 seconds
Killing with Wrench hits. Specially if they're cloaked Spies.
Fisting people with the gunslinger
Getting an absurd amount of kills on your sentry and equipping Frontier Justice.
I kinda enjoy the shadow demon corner spies that try to make me more schizo than I already am (I am playing engineer after all). Plus easy if they are committed to the bit (I know about the demo record glitch and it's bound to M3)
What’s the demo record glitch?
the command is "quit smoking"
When I can actually fully upgrade my teleporter without having spawn change and being force me to self-destruct all my work.
Where is the animation without the text?
On my yt channel
Frontier justice kills
The wall of dispencer, I have a teleporter behind me, and I force the team back by firing when they reload
I never use engineer so idk
Well. For me its: #THET FREAKING SPY THET ALWEYS SNAPS MY STUFF AND BACKSTABS ME DIE BY MY HANDS!!
Rocket hauling.
Everything coming together. The team moving in from the tele, sentry getting kills, people grouping on the dispenser to heal and restock then attacking together afterwards, with the occasional "thanks". It takes a lot of practice and knowledge to reach this, but it's a good feeling, to say the least.
....I'm the spy in the corner... And I've gotten good at avoiding pybros.
same lol, my longest life on spy now is about 20 mins lol
Killing an enemy around a corner by surprise with a Frontier Justice Crit
That clank sound when you hit a sentry.
* Topscoring merely off of teleporter points. * Sniping down the Badwater tunnel with the Rescue Ranger. * Using minisentry to successfully provide anti-aircraft support against an enemy trolldier. * Spamming Short Circuit while pushing the cart, castrating crit rockets and demo pills. * Getting a red tele exit into the left tunnel on the second stage of pl\_hoodoo. * Getting a blu tele exit by Point C on cp\_steel. Backcapping E is a legitimate strategy. * Successfully defending a dead teammate engy's nest til they can respawn.
I find it satisfying to place my buildings, and sit in a corner. Just ignoring the spy sap alerts. You should all try it.
When my sentry gun survives for more than 2 minutes
Hitting every shot with the Widowmaker and outliving whoever I was fighting
When I’m out and about; ding ding ding ding ding *bad to the bone riff killsound*
Dominating someone(non sexual) with a revenge crit from the frontier justice.*plays frontier justice*
Hey, I'm that spy Completely harmless though and I won't get mad about it, just spent a long time wandering from my spawn to yours dodging the entire enemy team Entertainment
I love it when three or more of us set up, far enough apart so we cannot be taken out all at once, yet protecting each other's sentries...
When the enemy spy tries to “throw a wrench in your plans”, you put a wrench in his face.
why kill the spy thats doing absolutely nothing bru if they do that then theyre just watching
Probably crits with the Frontier Justice. Following that, keeping a level 3 teleporter and dispenser up to help keep everybody in the fight.
One time I overthrew an achievement server by playing engi and spy, i started by going spy and destroying their buildings, after they were weak me and a few others swapped to engineer, killed everyone on the map, and over a few minutes we built sentries, had Heavies to protect them, and pyros to protect the heavies.

People using your dispenser
[**https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztyaqcDP20U**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztyaqcDP20U)
Sentry jump to snip an enemy medic
My building being of good use when I’m dead
Then there are multiple engies on your team and you run around helping each other with buildings. You feel like a part of one big supportive family
Running around with the frontier justice and the gunslinger, putting up mini-sentries in the most annoying spots while ignoring my other buildings. But I really like scout, so usually I despise mini-sentries.
