Engineer: How am I going to stop some big mean mother hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind? The answer...use a gun. And if that don't work... [A level 3 sentry gun fires rockets] ...use more gun.
[Explosion.]
Scout: MY ARM!

Engineer: Like this heavy caliber, tripod-mounted, little ol' number designed by me...built by me...and you'd best hope...not pointed at you. (00:00:55)

Engineer: Hey look, buddy, I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is beauty?", because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. (00:00:05)

Character mistake: When the Level 3 Sentry gun is revealed on the right of the screen and fires a rocket barrage to the left, you hear it explode as the Engi looks over. You then hear Scout scream "My arm!" really loud. Then an disembodied arm falls in front of Engi with a plop. However, this arm is from the character model of Sniper, not Scout. (00:00:45)

Audio problem: As the camera pulls back from the truck, a Pyro is running up at the Engi from the left side. When the Level 1 Sentry turns and kills him, the Pyro makes the Sniper's death cry. (00:01:10)

Audio problem: As the BLU army is advancing on the Engineer's location in the wide shot, you see a Heavy coming up on him from the left and firing. However, instead of the usual sound the Heavy's minigun makes, you hear it making the sound of the Sniper's SMG. (00:01:15)

Continuity mistake: Towards the beginning of the video and just a little bit later, you see bullets hit the truck behind the Engineer and leave clear, large bullet holes. These holes are very visible and stay in the same spot. But as the camera is pulling back and you see these large holes still there, you can see sparks jump off the truck a couple more times in two more spots near the Engineer's head. However these shots leave no holes while the older holes remain visible. (00:01:10)

Trivia: The song the Engineer plays on his guitar is a section of 'Someone Else's Song' by the American band Wilco. The track used in the video was later released in full as a part of the Team Fortress 2 Soundtrack, under the name More Gun. (00:00:05)
