[QUOTE=AkujiTheSniper;31755973]I'm imagining Raid Mode being where there's a bomb is placed somewhere on the map, and if someone goes over it they pick it up but can't use weapons, while their teammates protect them. Then they must take it to the opposite teams base and blow it up.[/QUOTE]
I can imagine great trolling done with this.
Yeah, to prevent a single troll Pyro from wrecking the entire round, the bomb would have to drop if the carrier gets airblasted.
Not sure what to do about people just running the wrong way with the thing, though.

That would give Pyro way too many class-specific abilities.
How about it blows you the fuck up after holding it for too long, and dropping it "defuses" it and can't be picked up again?
What will the Raid game type be anyway?
I'm thinking of something like assault from Halo, where the object is to get the bomb to an area and arm it, then blow it up.
It would be like Attack / defend Capture the Flag, with a hint of Control points and Payload.
Before anyone says anything about me mentioning Halo, I never played Counter-Strike, and I'm full aware its got a "similar" gametype but I'm not sure just how similar it is.

To the point that halo could get sued for plagiarism, really. It's:
-sudden death mode.
terrorist:
(say, blue team, or for that matter, covenants):
Spawn at tspawn. One of the terrorists has the bomb and can give it to another teammate for strategic purposes. Their aim is to plant the bomb or blow it up, or kill all counter terrorists. Both can be accomplished. As long as the bomb explodes, the round is won.
C-terrorists:
(say, red, or spartans, whatever)
spawns at ctspawn, which generally is also a possible bombplant.
they know where the bomb is. they can defuse the bomb at a given speed, which can be altered via purchasing a defusing kit (practically a paintrain, you defuse faster but it takes one slot). they have to kill all terorrists to win, or defuse the bomb, given that is has been planted, this is the priority.
Why this gamemode wouldn't work in TF2:
the terrorist have an advantage in the objectives that have to be completed, but this is compensed by the lesser quality of their weaponry. In tf2, no such thing exist and that would make this game mode unbalanced.
In CS, there is no classes, therefore no difference in the movement speed between teammate and therefore no reason for anyone to pick anything but a scout really.
Now let me explain this:
on the terrorist side, there would be no reason to pick a heavy, too slow. There would be no reason in picking the spy, you know how useless he is with an intel on his back. No reason to pick the soldier or demo, too slow. No reason to pick an engie on sudden death. No reason to pick a sniper for obvious reason (range, mobility). No reason to pick a medic because of reduced mobility and lack of means of defense. No reason to pick a pyro either, same reason as the sniper, though he could be pretty good at guarding an armed bomb.
I think that sums it up pretty good, though it could be a pretty good game mode CT (red) wise.

Which counter?
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;31762056]238th update already went out but the counter says 237. Valve trying to hide they are late?[/QUOTE]
The counter says 237 because there are 238, it's all of the updates before the current one
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;31762319]No, it's all updates after relase.[/QUOTE]
It wasn't exactly a TF2 specific update. Unless you don't mean the one that just released.
It counts source engine updates.
Ah? Nevermind then. Probably just slow on the upkeep then.
WHo else is too fucking impatient for Halloween??? I know they've cooked up some awesome shit. I just want it NOW.

I'm so fucking hyped up for this shit. It's like I'm sweating all over the fucking place when I think about how fucking great it's gonna be.

Schema updated to change all instances of TF_Wearable_Hat into just hat.
Also beards (Camera Beard, Whiskered Gent, Cockswine) were changed to facial hair for some reason, but nothing else was done (so no glasses, shoes, etc)
[url]http://git.optf2.com/schema-tracking/commit/[/url]
I wouldn't count on that meaning a 2nd misc update is coming, although this would be a neat way for Valve to implement it.

Oh god, do you realize what "Facial Hair" getting its own category implies?
I think we're getting an all mustache and beard update.
