Has Bonk! really a taunt?

While the Heavy's Sandvich at least shares the M1 button with the taunt, pressing "G" with the Bonk!/Crit-a-Cola equipped does nothing. --Kid Of The Century 12:12, 19 September 2010 (UTC)

  • True, it doesn't. Lol, old post. Rocket Ship BBQ 16:15, 6 August 2011 (PDT)

New High Five Taunts

New High Five taunts for every class (sans Engineer) have been added to the CFG. Could someone QUICKLY add these to the taunt lists before they're removed?--The preceding unsigned comment was added by Satorifan (talk) • contribs) 21:33, 2 October 2010

Regarding the Bonk!/CaC 'taunt'...

I feel it's a bit misleading to state it as "unused", as the player would clearly see the Scout doing it upon drinking (even though it's not a 'G-key taunt') and could lead to some unnecessary confusion as the text of the article even states that said 'taunt' activates the Bonk!/CaC. However I'm unsure of any other way to place it on the article. Perhaps by placing it in the "Secondary" area, but stating via footnote that the sole purpose of the animation is for the activation of the effect, and not for 'taunting' purposes (as it's clearly viewable in-game, so it's not exactly unused as common sense would dicate).

Think of it this way: if the average player tried to 'taunt' with it, they'd fail right? Yet if they press their primary fire button, they'd see the apparently 'unused (according to the wiki)' taunt, which the wiki also states activates the effect of the drink. This would lead to confusion or accusations that the wiki is inaccurate.

And yes, it is technically a taunt. Thoughts? i-ghost 12:02, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

  • Personally, I wouldn't call it a taunt, although you could use it to infuriate your enemies. But since it won't activate if you hit G, I wouldn't call it one; the only reason the Sandvich is called a taunt is because it activates when you taunt. However taunts are technically animations that make you go into thirdperson and unable to move, so it technically is a taunt. For now, I'll just put "Activates upon primary fire only" there Rocket Ship BBQ 16:15, 6 August 2011 (PDT)

Missing quotes?

Some of the quotes for the scout, and actually every class are missing for taunts like rock paper scissors. These are the quotes that play when the player is waiting for a partner to activate the taunt. Ones like: "Let's do this!" "Come on!" And etc. Can someone please add them for all the classes?
