TF2 General Chat and Speculation Station V14 - The Bargaining Stage
999 replies, posted
well duh, that's what I meant in general; An update to the general honorary system of merc badges, upgrade them, whatever.
hhuhh, time to boot up that game I don't touch anymore
The Primeval Warrior and Grizzled Veteran badges are pretty cool, but they often go unnoticed by new players. You can take all the cosmetics off and wear just the badge and people will still call you a cheater and or a free-to-play.
I doubt they'll miss the update. It's almost impossible since all they need to do is make a crate, add some festives/cosmetics and release that.
I doubt it'll be much more than that though.
Valve thrives on subverting expectations.
Anyone know any good community servers that run custom maps & valve maps in a rotation?
Every attempt to find a server through the browser leads me to 50 million servers of shit like x10, Vs. Saxton Hale or idling/achievement servers.
I just want a decent server that doesn't run stupid fuckin' gamemodes, man.
no heroes is p gud
When it isn't dead, the only server I can find that runs stock still is The furry Pound #4. Turn off sprays, cl_hud_saytext_time 0, and turn off voicechat, and you'll have a good time, since a lot of the regulars are a lot better at the game than the average pub-goer.
Join the tf2maps.net steam group. You can play bleeding edge new maps whenever they have impromptus.
Meet Your Match killed off 99.9999% of the community servers running vanilla game modes/maps. All that is left is Skial, which mostly means "2Fort+ LA" these days. Even Vatican City, the premier unusual trade server, is dead more than it isn't. thisisfine.jpg
From the comments section:
"I'm desperately hoping for a cl_plain
setting that individual users can turn on to make:
All items that do not affect gameplay (e.g. all hats except set-bonus ones) appear as the class' default appearance.
No items appears to have any custom names
No items appear to have any custom descriptions
No items have any "paint"
No items have any extra special particle effects
If Valve thinks that's too much of a stake into the heart of their business practice, then they can add the following downside:
If you have this setting enabled, you cannot equip cosmetic-only items to show others, so it's almost two-way."
Keep in mind this was posted less than one year before The Uber Update and the announcement that TF2 was shifting to a business model based 100 percent on fucking virtual cosmetics.
yeah the ending to the comics was a "they all die the end".
tis true to an extent i suppose; still, i feel that knowing the ultimate fate of the main mercs, hale, administrator, and pauling, all the characters we grew very close with, is kinda saddening. I'm fine with a disbanding or them going off to live their own lives, or continuing to go back to fighting or something that ends in a note of letting your imagination speculating how the rest of their lives goes, but seeing everything up to the point they die and how they die can be a bit spoiling of a franchise to me.
microtransactions bought me a ticket to london, a switch and a new pc.
Good for you. They also killed valve's drive and innovation, and made the games industry as a whole worse in the long run.
Even if there were none to begin with.
I expected valve to never make a game again, and then they came out with artifact.
They're really good at this.
TF2maps is p much the sole thing keeping my interest in TF2, normally my interest waxes and wanes as I get burnt out on the same old maps but near-daily imps of all kinds of maps qualities in various states of progress is nigh impossible to become stale; creating shitty A1s and tossing them onto the server is great as well, though I need to do more of that tbh
Remember though, if anyone reading is wanting to play, that it's primarily for map testing and feedback!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Neat.
I’m also sure nobody expected all their other non-dota IPs to die for an 8k playercount from 60 a few weeks after launch, but hey they got us there too.
That looks really well made. I appreciate that there is a course for beginners too. Normally you only ever find mega-hard almost impossible jump-maps with nowhere to train. Wish there were more surf-maps for beginners too (although to be fair those are more intuitive once you understand the basic principle of surfing).

Artifucked.
It has even less players than dayz what the fuck
Except this game received major update last week and going to receive next major update this week while tf2 is going to receive third cosmetic crate in a year at most.
"people will still call you a cheat and/or a free-to-play"
only the retards.
less than a month old game recieves update.
what are the odds-
tonight is the night
Actually, given how the updates were in the past and given this year's calendar, the night is really today or tommorow (otherwise that would mean an unprecedented late Smissmas update).
Cosmetic case 2018 lets go
I just want to find this in my crimbus stocking
