"Naow worries, mate!" I have this feeling quite some days. I want that damn update, Valve! I know, you're observing this thread!

Just keep your mind off the anticipation if it's eating you up.

Today is my birthday, so the fact that this update may come this week makes me happy. :buddy:

They got posted in the current emporium several pages back, I can't be assed into searching at the moment, though.

[A Glitch]

For some reason, I cannot unsee the Beak being made of pie crust. It looks fucking delicious.

The pie crust similarity is merely Pie_Tony's signature. It also represents the Medic's love for pies.

Meet the medic plot point!

Meet the pork pie

[Luckyg]

I'm kinda hoping valve will do the day by day unveiling, starting tomorrow, with the update coming a week tomorrow. From the leak, the update is going to be massive and it would be a shame to go to waste with it all being unveiled together :(

[tmujir955]

[QUOTE=Pie_Tony;29616521]Meet the pork pie[/QUOTE]

Actually, the pie is an integral plot point. If you liken the pie to a cake, it becomes relatively simple. The cake is a lie (fact) which makes the pie a lie. Now, if you interpret the beak as a pie, it makes the beak a lie. Now, remember what the beak represents: the Medic's false outer shell. Therefore, the Medic's outward appearance is a lie.

I really hope this update is soon. I remember someone emailed someone at Valve (Robin?) during the Potatofools ARG and he replied and said they had a big update planned at some point.

im optimistic its today but i know its going to end up being next week and/or month.

You just keep saying that on every day and who knows, maybe you'll eventually be right. :v:

[ned_ballad]

SPUF's been down for around an hour.

I don't think it's related, just saying.

How do you guys think the two new game modes will operate <:?

[QUOTE=Reimu;29618417]How do you guys think the two new game modes will operate <:?[/QUOTE]

I got really excited when they mentioned they were working on a new game mode last time, but it turned out to be "melee only." I'm thinking these two will probably be very simple iterations of existing game modes as well. At least this is what I keep telling myself so on the off-chance it's something amazingly new & refreshing it'll be that much more amazing and refreshing.

Maybe 1 flag CTF, as many people here have been speculating? That seems likeliest.

poorly

[Jorori]

[QUOTE=Reimu;29618417]How do you guys think the two new game modes will operate <:?[/QUOTE]

I think it will be like this:

Raid can be:
- A neutral CTF mode (I'm dead sure it will be this)
- Like Team Fortress Classic's "Hunted" gamemode (probably not)

Speciality can be:
- Weekly objectives à-la Left 4 Dead 2's mutations (I [B]really[/B] hope not)
- A vanilla mode ([img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/rainbow.png[/img])
- Gamematch options like "Only Melee", "Only Scouts", "Only Taunts" (Like those "custom matches" in Super Smash Brothers)

[iRunner]

I want to see how the 'raid' gamemode is going to be, and what maps are coming with them :v:

[ned_ballad]

SPUF is still down

Wow, this is a conspiracy or something

Almost 2 hours. When it comes back, I imagine the TF2 board will be nuts with conspiracy theories. Should be a good time

[PyroCraz3d]

Um.. That has nothing to do with the update. SPUF always goes down.

[Banjo7J]

Raid sounds like it might be a medieval CTF variant. Lie, not the same thing as just going into CTF and typing "tf_medieval 1" into the console. I don't know how different it would be or how it would be different but that's just the kinda vibe that the name gives me.
