Major Update Speculation Thread V4: Tonight's the Night For QR Codes

[Krogag]

Vindictus made the weekend fly by for me, it's actually really fun, even though...[I]Nexon.[/I]...eugh.

There's very little grind in it and all the things you can buy are only aesthetic.

Also it's Source Engine.

And destructible enviroments.

And the combat is amazing.

[Creeper120]

Well, here we go to Day 1.

Too much Oregon Trail.

[QUOTE=TheFishyG;36477647]Dunno about you, but craftable hats seem to go around 1.33 ref nowadays.[/QUOTE]

Thanks!

On a related note, I forgot how goddamn ridiculous tf2tp is. This won't be fun or easy.

I handle money all day in avery shady area of Sydney. You wouldn't believe the things I've cought. Good for the immune system though!

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36477599]In 5 more minutes it will be monday for me.

So I think I'll head off to bed. Don't want to be groggy for the big day[/QUOTE]

I'm starting to get a sneaking suspicion that ned_ballad is some weird metaphysical entity that will only exist for as long as TF2 is still being updated and not a second longer.

[JoeJohns]

It still hasn't hit me yet that exciting shit is happening tomorrow.

...so is Peperony and Chease your drug dealer or something?

[QUOTE=Clovernoodle;36477725]It still hasn't hit me yet that exciting shit is happening tomorrow.[/QUOTE]

That's what I feel like... The sudden stop in the update just kind of killed all of the hype I built up.

[JoeJohns]

I'm going to be out, probably, when the update hits, so I dunno what I'm going to do if something big happens tomorrow that requires a computer. V :v: V

I hadn't really thought about it until now, but you're exactly right. I wonder if the weekend slump is due to their [B](a)[/B] trying to tease and build up more hype/always wanting to start it on a Monday for a week-long extravaganza,[B] (b)[/B] thinking the TF2 community had better things to do during the weekend (ha!), or [B](c)[/B] delaying update due to a bug (like that would stop them).

or maybe they have weekends off

[QUOTE=TheFishyG;36477635]There's an inherent problem with the flamethrowers, none are really 'balanced'. The Pyro is probably the class most dependent on weapon switching and crits, and almost every Pyro uses the Degreaser.

Problem goes: if you buff the other flamethrowers to make them viable sidegrades, the other flamethrowers will probably become rather OP. Nerf the Degreaser, and Pyros become unnecessary, seeing as a ton of Pyro players depend on the Degreaser as it is now and it'd also be harder to score a hit with it. Plus that'd pretty much mean that W+M1 becomes even more of a problem.[/QUOTE]

Okay, so buffing underpowered items makes an underpowered class overpowered? The fuck?

So, in light of the upcoming update, I am taking requests on a pyro voice replacement. I replaced it with Rochelle's voice about a year ago, and I've now have the time to make another one. I'm only asking this thread because pyro is on everyone's mind. I attempted to make a Defective Turret replacement, but his soundfiles don't play for some reason (Different kinds of .wav files? I don't know about that, but I do know I wasted a good hour or so on it).

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36477532]it's basically off topic, nostalgia about comics, and this TF2 comic teaser from Mikani's deviantart

I have to wake up early to get my car to an autoshop at around 10:00 A.M., so then I get to sit around F5ing. It won't be fun.

I'm fine with Day 1 sort of update, but I swear if they delay more just to tease everyone is going to flip their shit.

Kenny McCormick, although I wouldn't be suprised if someone's done this already.

I'm not sure what time it is where you are, but where I live, it's 11:26.

No, I'm saying that if you want to achieve what Valve wants to achieve, balanced sidegrade weaponry, and attempt to apply that to the Pyro's flamethrowers by buffing the stats of the various flamethrowers, that'd have a possibility of making said flamethrowers come into OP territory. Sorry if my wording before confused you.

What about the Cow Mangler/Righteous Bison?

That's according to the timezone where Valve is, and 5 hours and 36 minutes from when I posted that it would have been 3am at Valve, or 12 hours before the suspected update time. ETA 12 hours is when that music starts to play.

Every sale day ends at 1 PM Eastern.

It's logical nothing happens before then.
