m (mc removed overlinking, Wilhelm Scream isn't "infamous". Webster def. of Infamy is "evil reputation brought about by something grossly criminal, shocking, or brutal" which isn't applicable because the Wilhelm Scream is pretty well liked across the board.)

First revealed at GC '06, this trailer showcased the various abilities of Team Fortress 2's player [[classes]].
+
=== Changes ===
The trailer, since it is showing a early rendition of the game, contains several differences from the final product:
+
====General====
 +
* The general texture and lighting of the character models is of significantly lower quality.
 +
* The emblems on the classes' arms are solid circles, instead of class emblems. The exception to this is RED [[Pyro]].
 +
* All characters have the same voice and stock dying noises including the iconic [[w:Wilhelm Scream|Wilhelm Scream]] [[Media:Wilhelm Scream.ogg|(click to listen)]]. The generic voice was going to be used for the [[Civilian]].
 +
* The classes had more low-poly heads, which can be seen in their gib models.
  
* The Scout is wielding a [[Nailgun]], which was replaced by the [[Scattergun]] in the finished game.  
+
====Scout====
* The Soldier's [[Rocket Launcher]] has a rocket sticking out of the end when loaded.
+
* Appears to have more upper-body build than the current model does.
* The Demoman is shown throwing an MIRV, a would be stay-over from [[Team Fortress Classic]], which was removed from the game following beta and replaced with [[Sticky bombs]].
+
* Is shown wielding the [[Nail Gun]] which was later replaced with the [[Scattergun]]. The [[Nail Gun]] was the primary weapon used by the Scout in [[Team Fortress Classic]].
* The Demoman's [[Grenade Launcher]] could hold up to 6 grenades.
+
** When the Nail Gun is out, the hands from his player model are used as opposed to his [[viewmodel]] hands. His thumb is also pointing up in the one of the first-person shots.
* The Demoman's ability to remotely detonate his Grenades hadn't yet been moved to his Sticky bombs.
+
* Has two team-colored stripes near the tops of his socks, and his shoes do not have the white stripes that they do now. Instead, they have a different pattern which can be seen in his gibs.
* The Grenades have a longer, thinner, and slightly different design, and don't flash.
+
* His earpiece has changed to Cream Spirit.
* The Heavy's [[Minigun]] firing animation includes a more cartoonish muzzle flash coming out of the barrel.
 
* The Heavy's movement speed is much slower in the finished game.
 
* The bullets seen spewing out of the Minigun are longer and have more expelled in an extremely wide spread than in the final product.
 
* The Level 1 [[Sentry Gun]] has a different firing sound, builds at a slower speed, and has a higher rate of fire. It also has a muzzle flash, unlike the simple recoil the gun has now.
 
*The charge symbol seen when the Sniper Rifle is zoomed in has a different design.
 
* The Spy's [[Knife]] has a much longer and has a more intricate switching animation.
 
*The emblems on the class' arms are solid circles instead of class emblems.
 
* Weapons were less jerky when being wielded by classes. For example, the [[Nailgun]] held by the running [[Scout]] was almost stationary when it was viewed
 
* The [[2Fort]] bridge is uncovered.
 
* The spawns have a separate exit and entrance like in Team Fortress Classic.
 
* The picture showing all the [[classes]] at the end is an old version featuring the older designs and weapons.
 
* The explosion graphics are different in the finished game.
 
* Far less blood when players are gibbed.
 
  
== Notes ==
+
====Soldier====
*The [[Pyro]] and the [[Medic]] are both seen in the trailer, but neither are mentioned.
+
* RED Soldier is identical to [[Trailer 1]].
*Footstep sounds were recycled from Half-Life 2.
+
* His BLU coat is a dark blue team color.
* All characters have the same voice and stock dying noises including the infamous [[wikipedia:Wilhelm_scream|Wilhelm scream]].
+
* His pants are less saturated.
* Characters have a few clarity issues. For example, the Heavy's ear and Demoman's eye patch are a bit blurred.
+
* His helmet is a dark grey hue.
* The classes' health were set very low (especially [[Soldier]] and [[Pyro]]) so that the other classes could kill them easily.
+
* His class emblem is blank yellow.
 +
* The [[Rocket Launcher]] has different textures and is visually a single-shot frontloaded RPG much like it is in ''[[Team Fortress Classic]]''. The protruding rocket was removed in the final version.

+
====Pyro====
 +
* Their gloves are fully black.
 +
* The tank on their back is fully yellow instead of gray with a yellow top.
 +
* The [[Flamethrower]] is not team-colored.
 +
* Their asbestos suit is more saturated and has darker hues, and their BLU class emblem is blank yellow.
 +
 
 +
====Demoman====
 +
* He wields a [[Pipebomb Launcher]] instead of the [[Stickybomb Launcher]].
 +
** The grenades look completely different and lack any "countdown" particle effects.
 +
** The viewmodel of the Pipebomb Launcher has a different origin.
 +
* The Demoman is shown wielding the [[Dynamite Pack|MIRV Grenade]] before later being scrapped along with all other Grenades.
 +
** The MIRV Grenade also uses the [[RED]] textures rather than the [[BLU]] textures.
 +
* His class emblem is blank yellow.
 +
 
 +
====Heavy====
 +
* Moves slower.
 +
* The viewmodel of the [[Minigun]] is slightly different.

 +

 +
 
 +

 +
** His shirt is similar to the final version, and his class emblem is blank yellow.
 +

 +
 
 +
====Sniper====
 +
* Has different shaders for his glasses.
 +
* The charge symbol, shown when his [[Sniper Rifle]] is scoped in, looks different. The [[Sniper Rifle]] uses the manual shot charging mechanism from its [[Sniper Rifle (Classic)|Team Fortress Classic counterpart]].

 +
* Cigarettes are white & gold for both [[BLU]] and [[RED]], and do not appear to be lit.
 +
* Has a team-colored pocket protector, striped tie and visible buttons.
 +
* The textures on his gloves and mask appear to be different.
 +
* The [[Knife|Butterfly Knife]] has a longer and more articulate backstab animation. This was considered too long and shortened by the time of the pre-release, and was later changed so that the animation was an instant kill, and remains that way to this day.
 +
 
 +
==== 2Fort ====
 +
* The bridge in the center of the map is uncovered, which is covered in the current release.
 +
* The spawn rooms have separate exits and entrances.
