"More Gun" is the tune the Engineer plays on his guitar in Meet the Engineer. The original version was released in the Engineer Update, and has since been updated twice. It is one of the song titles featured from the Team Fortress 2 Official Soundtrack, listed as track number ten, and is one of fourteen main menu start up themes. It is the seventh track to be added via patch subsequent to the game's release.

Update History

July 8, 2010 Patch (Engineer Update)

  • This song was added as main menu music.

July 13, 2010 Patch

  • [Undocumented] Valve altered the song, using a harmonica, train sounds, and even a slightly tweaked melody of the guitar solo preceding the electric guitar accompaniment.

August 17, 2010 Patch

  • Valve added another new version, this time replacing the train intro with chirping crickets and the harmonica with a quiet accordion; the guitar changes remain in this version. None of these versions match the actual recording used in Meet the Engineer, though.

Guitar transcription

The following is a text rendition of a guitar tablature for the song. The Engineer is rendered taking pretty exact chord fingerings, which have been examined here.
