TF2 Update July 21th 2011 - Games

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dq8wLEOLfyY[/media] Posting this in here too because I'm a fucking whore like that. But yes, you can now cast magic in TF2.

[QUOTE=mnyfrsh;31243116]I've no problem with the charge (other than building stun). It's five normal splash rockets (the DH could have eight and I still probably wouldn't use it) and infinite ammo that's the problem. Not that people completely run out of ammo too often but it's still a legitimate downside.[/QUOTE] Remember when the Soldier's reserve ammo was knocked down from 40 to 20? Yeah, I'm wondering why they essentially repealed that nerf by adding this weapon.

wow valve make some more soldier weapons [editline]21st July 2011[/editline] also, don't the weapons seem a bit op?

And for everyone saying the new stuff is OP? Go gunslinger engie, watch them cry delicious tears. 16 damage against a building. 16.

Weta Workshop is the best, just bought LOTR extended yesterday which they did the designing for and now I get nice new weapons from them.

Sentries are the only things that can keep soldiers with the cow mangler in check, their team must take care of them. The ability to disable those sentries makes that even easier. The fact that minisentries can be produced so quickly is what makes it seem balanced to you. Oh no, it's weak against 1 thing from 1 class using 1 specific weapon. How about the other 8 classes and other engineers who don't use the gunslinger, huh?

[QUOTE=Daakun;31243193]And for everyone saying the new stuff is OP? Go gunslinger engie, watch them cry delicious tears. 16 damage against a building. 16.[/QUOTE] disables buildings for 4 seconds

Anyone who wastes five shots on a minisentry needs shot themselves. >_>

[QUOTE=Daakun;31243279]Anyone who wastes five shots on a minisentry needs shot themselves. >_>[/QUOTE] I would, but finding a gun in Australia is hard.

and I am not even going to talk about this hurting pyro even more

Prevents a pocketsoldier from destroying your entire team. [QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;31243368]and I am not even going to talk about this hurting pyro even more[/QUOTE] Not at all. It's just a standard rocketlauncher with 1 more rocket (which won't matter since it's over after 2, from both perspectives) The charged shot is a free reflect, if anything.

Hey guys I've been looking through the animations in the SDK, and I've found this in the engineer model: [img]http://i.imgur.com/TZhku.png[/img] is it new? there's also one of the soldier picking something like ammo and then reloading his gun.

isn't soldier a goddamn spoiled brat that has ALL the cool toys

Hah, I thought otherwise.

[QUOTE=Vaught;31243455]You can reflect charged shots? Hah, I thought otherwise.[/QUOTE] You can, I've done it a few times, they're so slow.

The new rocket launcher looks ridiculous.

[QUOTE=lionheart1066;31243401][video=youtube;Mhw9-ZrrRSI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mhw9-ZrrRSI[/video] Oh god.[/QUOTE] I see Drunken_Fool is having fun with his Valve powers.

And its op as hell. [editline]21st July 2011[/editline] i swear, this game looks stupid when your playing a game and random lazors are being shot everywhere.

Shoop Da Whoop sound replacement for the Cow Mangler, I had to fiddle with the file though, to get it timed right, didn't turn out too bad. Place in <Steam Directory>\steamapps\<account name>\team fortress 2\tf\sound\weapons [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?0ds37m5olem7br5[/url]

I may be mega optimistic here, but someone told me something I never thought of. Soldier just got these weapons from ONE Rocket. There's two more rockets that haven't been found yet. Is anyone else thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?

damn i really want the mutton chops

Im gonna name my cow mangler the Lag Cannon

I like the new weapons, they're fun to use. I renamed the cow mangler "Dr. Venture's prototype wave cannon" described "Never could get the thing to work right, always shooting blasts instead of waves"

[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;31244097]I thought it's impossible to deflect it?[/QUOTE]That's the laser pistol.

I just need to think of something good to replace the something something part.
