The Panzer Pants is an Action taunt for the Soldier. When activated, the Soldier gets into a small drivable tank with a functioning gun. The shots fired from the tank are purely cosmetic and do not deal any damage to enemies.

Bugs

  • Occasionally the tank will disappear, causing players to see the Soldier's arms and legs bent in a unorthodox angle, this is shown here.
  • The tank's engine noises will stop playing if interrupted by fall damage or footsteps.
  • If the Soldier has the Beggar's Bazooka, the Primary Fire for the tank will load the first rocket.
  • The smoke effect from the exhaust of the tank will play constantly until the player presses the Primary Fire.

Trivia

  • The item's name is a reference to the German word panzer, meaning "tank".
  • The tank model is based on the M4A4 Sherman. The name of its texture in the games files reflects it.
  • One of the Soldier's taunt-specific lines is a reference to the 1970 soul classic "War" by Edwin Starr.
