[QUOTE=_Kilburn;21012760]Some people just aren't right... Anyway, I like the look of those alternate buildings, although they look kinda... sci-fi. The Amplifier looks like a miniature observatory, and the No-Turn looks like a flying saucer mounted on a box. I'd love to implement those in my TF2 gamemode when I'm done with Engineer buildings though, the No-Turn looks like it's going to be quite fun to code, I'll see if this guy is interested in making fully functional models for Source with all the needed animations.[/QUOTE] In the 50's and 60's Sci Fi was incredibly popular. TF2 is in the late 60's.
What if Valve secretly hired this guy to make a "fake" update page and it turns out to be the real one! :tinfoil: /conspiracy On a side note even if this is fake its still pretty amazing.
Yeah, I've been thinking about that too. It would be really awesome if Valve disguised an official update as a fake one, adding a few unprofessional details (such as the spelling and the HL2 blood) to make it more convincing. I strongly doubt it though. :v:
Well, judging by the No-Turn's metal cost (250), something tells me one of the items will increase the Engineer's metal capabilities. :v: However, there's no alt-weapon slots, so I'm thinking maybe a beefier dispenser?
If Valve gave the engie 1 new weapon, and tiers for his stuff... There's no way they could do it horribly.

It would make sense for such a powerful weapon.
Looks great.
I think he is trying very hard because he want Valve to hire him. I think they will.
I don't understand the no turn. Are there any downsides?
That image doesn't look tf2 style at all. Too realistic.
Neat-o.
stop whining about the look, appreciate the idea for fucks sake
[QUOTE=Leo Leonardo;21016220]I don't understand the no turn. Are there any downsides?[/QUOTE] To be honest the noturn is probably one of those things that sounds overpowered, but ends up being perfectly balanced because it doesn't work in normal spots. And yeah, the downside is it doesn't turn so they can stand out of line with the bullets, and it rotates slower up and down.

[editline]01:12PM[/editline] It's too bad about the whole he's-not-good-at-English thing. I could edit and reword stuff for him easily.
Someone try crafting it, see what happens.
The amplifier's title should be Good Vibrations. Same meaning and is moar referencey.
Woah, that dispenser idea is almost exactly like one of my own, so you can guess that I like it :v: That no-turn is pretty awesome as well, as someone who mains engineer I can see how inherent balancing act, pretty kewl :P
[QUOTE=Mnemosynaut;21006054]He updated with a second weapon. The concept is confusing but the animation is pretty awesome. [url]http://manno.com.br/Engineer/noturn.html[/url][/QUOTE] Why does it lean and Tilt? [editline]10:07PM[/editline] Go on and press TAB

[QUOTE=Soul-Chicken;21020624]Why does it lean and Tilt? [editline]10:07PM[/editline] Go on and press TAB[/QUOTE] It's a a sentry with 360 degree vision and it can tilt up and down like a normal sentry.
What's the whole "pressing tab" thing about? I never got that.
[QUOTE=Baboo00;21021070]What's the whole "pressing tab" thing about? I never got that.[/QUOTE] Pressing tab allows you to cycle through all of the buttons and find hidden stuff without the effort of actually looking for it. Like I know he has/had a bit for a gamemode, but it was hidden and there was no "button" to it, so you couldn't see it normally.

What makes me kinda excited about all those fake engie updates is that valve might add then,i mean no-turn it's the best thing against pyros and fucking scouts,tough amplifier it's damn useless,i mean why would i build a thing that make my crit rate go up 10%?

This thing literally doubles your crit rate, I think that's quite significant.
[QUOTE=_Kilburn;21029569]10% is quite useful when you know that the maximum crit rate for regular weapons is 12%. This thing literally doubles your crit rate, I think that's quite significant.[/QUOTE] Still, only useful if you are using a pistol or a minigun. Crits aren't as significant on other weapons.
The amplifier could add more range to the sentry gun or more damage.
[QUOTE=Garbor;21029812]The amplifier could add more range to the sentry gun or more damage.[/QUOTE] Or make your guns have a little bit better accuracy. That or faster fire speed and reload speed.
[QUOTE=loled;21029823]Or make your guns have a little bit better accuracy. That or faster fire speed and reload speed.[/QUOTE] The Amplifier +10% Range to any build(hur derp teleport does no count) +10% Damage to any build(i don't need to say it again) +10% Fire rate to any build(teleport would charge up faster) +10% Turning Speed to any build +10% Accuracy to any build Does not heal Don't supply metal
How do you build the "no-turn" if the max amount of metal you can carry is 200?
