Anyone else disappointed with the engineer update? - Games

Yeah anyone else? There was no meet the video. No new buildings except the combat sentry. The new shotgun seems mediocre at best. I know many people will say 'hey its free new content' but I'm kinda disappointed with whats coming out right now. I was really hoping for more fun items but I guess I got my hopes up too high.

You do know this is the 3rd thread about the same thing?

Wait a day or two for most of the community to actually be able to play it

I think you got your hopes too high. I mean look man, we got a metal hand that drops sentries!

[QUOTE=CaptainSnake;23218451]but I guess I got my hopes up too high.[/QUOTE] You did get your hopes too high.

You're always disappointed.

I'm completely happy with it.

No, I've always wanted to see the Engineer stick an engine into his hand :downs:

It's perfectly goddamn fine can't have everything

Happy with the unlocks, sad about the lack of Meet the Pyro/Medic, Trading system, and the anti-climatic end to the update :saddowns:

Im a bit dissapointed by the lack of new buildings, but Ill live.

Very, very, very no.

Could have been worse. Could have gotten a wrench replacement that increased your metal cache another 100 or some incredibly boring unlock like that. All things considered the unlocks are pretty imaginative and interesting.

I'm only disappointed in the lack of a Meet the Team. Other than that, I'm satisfied.

Out foul beast

the new unlocks really lack imagination.

I love this update, it's hilarious. The fact that I've seen servers crash already from the sheer amount of buildings in one game have caused much laughter.

The only goal for the Engineer update was to finish the first laid out goal, to update all 9 classes. Valve has repeatedly confirmed (recently too, GreenMarine on SA said something about this today) they're cooking up post-Engi updates. However, I think a majority of the community thought this was supposed to be some "Last Hurrah", expecting weapons for everyone, Meet the team videos, trading, when really, it's just Valve finishing what they started. They never really pumped it up to be something this big, and I think they realized that. So they made the Golden Wrench thing to distract us (and it worked for a great majority). Yeah the update was lackluster compared to the more recent ones, but you only have yourselves to blame for your disappointment. Polypack is just around the corner, several new updates are being worked on at the moment. The only WEIRD thing is the disturbing lack of Tobor...It's texture file is in the game, it's heads are on display in the Coming Soon video, yet the illusive robot is nowhere to be found...

i hate all the new weapons.. fist is cool but it still takes way to long to get a mini sentry up, and way to easy to destroy. it's fine for a surprise but you should be able to have 2 at once the frontier will get out shot from the regular shotgun at point blank, even with up to 2 crits stocked up, mainly because it only has 3 shots. and wrangler sucks because the POV is a laser pointer through sentry, rather than 1st or 3rd person view. enemy can just kill it from a slightly lower elevation and you can't do anything

I like the update. It's not the best but I think it's decent. The best thing about it is the way the three new weapons (excluding the Southern Hospitality) all compliment each other. The mini-sentry becomes better than a level 1 sentry when controlled with the wrangler and the Frontier Justice would be great after your mini-sentry (inevitably) dies. Good for engineers who are constantly moving their buildings around too. (Heh, first post)

are you fucking kidding me this update owns so hard valve doesn't owe you shit

i bet the meet the pyro will come out with the polycount update

[QUOTE=Ya Mum007;23218978]i bet the meet the pyro will come out with the polycount update[/QUOTE] I bet it won't since Valve has confirmed in many many instances that Meet the Pyro will be last...

The new maps are great.

no the weopans are brilliant

Only because it's impossible for me to play and enjoy everything while on an N64 [editline]09:47PM[/editline] And NAPALM is being a fag

Polycount Pack to look forward too.

Everything seems alright to me. I am just disapointed with no trading system. I don't see what the big deal is about a Meet The Team video.

Hell no! I love it!
