From the look of MTP it really does look like it'll be a little more serious, while retaining the general goofyness of TF2.
Either way it's gonna be [B]good.[/B]
[QUOTE=Seibitsu;36513515]And what if the Pyro pack is this one? [url]http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=16296[/url][/QUOTE]
As awesome as that would be, there are so many things that I want to fix in that pack. Naburus, a friend of mine who also worked on the dragon pack with me, actually visited Valve HQ a few months back and had a few of 'em look at the dragon pack and give us some critique. In short, as good as the items were, it was leaning too far into the fantasy category. The shotgun and guan dao might have been able to slip through with a few adjustments, but the flamethrower was recommended to be redone from scratch to better fit the game's style.
Serious lack of hidden stuff this update IMO, no hidden links or anything.

REVENGE, MOTHER FUCKER[/QUOTE]
Maybe also steals 10% uber from enemy medics for yourself. Gets the defensive uber down and gives you what you need to win. Super troll. Plus lose 20 metal on hit. Epic trolling for everybody.
I really hope this lint and shit is used for the new weapons. I've got so much lint and goldfish.
Also, 3 minutes until 5 hours left. Hoping for something to happen. Anything.

If not, I stocked up on refined metal.
Now for a late breakfast. Hungry as hell.

Same. I've got 17 refined I've been saving for weeks.
[QUOTE=Xieneus;36513375]I hope Valve includes crafting recipes.[/QUOTE]
After 3 days of SPUF yelling yes.
so this is the new thread to follow eh?
[QUOTE=Stoffy;36513436]I have an idea about it being really, really dramatic and serious compared to the rest of the shorts.
That specific scene in slow-motion with a serious classical score playing. What I really hope for is some background information on why the Pyro is as insane as it is.[/QUOTE]
Hopefully so. "lol pyro is so random and cute xD" was funny for a while, but flanderization ruined it and I'd really like a counterweight to that. Plus, Valve are good at combining humor with dark stuff.
[QUOTE=Doom14;36513544]As much as I moved away from TF2, I still want to this this final video.
I have really high hopes that at the end, the Pyro will casually get ready to pull his mask off - and the very instant a few pixels of neck skin show, it'll cut to the classic outro.
Then you'll see huge debates over what nationality the Pyro is based off the shade of those few pixels. :v:[/QUOTE]
Already been preaching it months ago, but calling it again now to save my post, I bet Pyro will reveal his face and then the camera cuts to first person and we only see the ambiguous reactions of his team members. Totally fits with Valve's promise of "seeing the world through the Pyro's eyes" in that one Kritzkast interview.
maaan, I really hope the update doesn't come live as the timer hits 0. I'll still be at job when MtP gets released, but it's not so bad since I can still watch it, but I can't [i]play[/i] TF2 at work.
It'll be the first major update release I won't be living while in front of my computer since the Scout update ;_;
edit
wow that sounds selfish

I'm thinking the bit in that shot will be kinda like the bit in the original Matrix film, where Neo's running around and then gets shot by Smith. Only in this case it'll be the Scout running through a burning building, desperately trying to escape, perhaps being stalked by the Pyro and seeing the corpses of his teammates scattered around the place, before running right into the Pyro and getting shot. Dramatically.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;36513593]Same. I've got 17 refined I've been saving for weeks.[/QUOTE]
Damn. 17? My friend owed me 2 and I had 2 . 4 fucking refined. all the parts to craft will be like 1 rec apiece. And then the recipes will likely need 2 reclaimed-1 refined per craft. FUCK.

Im sure like the previous updates, it will take a while to hope into a server thats not full anyway. Much more to download the game fast enough. I should switch my region to poland right now to while im at it
[QUOTE=SlickBlade;36513409][t]http://filesmelt.com/dl/pyro10.jpg[/t]
I can kinda imagine the video will go slow-mo upon the flare hitting the scout's chest, then the flare exploding above his head.[/QUOTE]
If you're correct about this, I will give you 3 refined out of pure heart.
Man wouldn't if be fantastic if the MtP vid was an action film homage with all these iconic scenes recreated for TF2. That also calls back to the pyro's ambiguity and the mystery of him/her could be anyone and everyone at the same time.
The only one thing i don't want to happen in MTP is for them to give away who/what he is and other things that give it away, it's better not knowing, Isn't it?..

Well, if pyro is revealed, people will complain
if the pyro isn't revealed, people will complain.
You can't win.

For the most part, I think more people expect for the Pyro to be revealed.
All flareguns and detonators are gone from tf2wh.com NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :suicide:

If they revealed Pyro's face, it'd completely ruin the mystery/gag of the character.
I think they'll joke at it, but then do something like the video cutting to black right before the mask is taken off.

Exactly. Every possible option on this universe in every update implies at least 10 hate/derp threads on SPUF, + other 6/7 threads copying the title/OP style but derping around. It´s the best place for getting feedback for Valve
[QUOTE=Captain Kirk;36513800]All flareguns and detonators are gone from tf2wh.com NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :suicide:[/QUOTE]
I'll LOL if none of the recipes include any of them.

i think it is better to keep pyro's face on mystery...

Christmas magic is not even magic.
And yeha, it looks pretty fantasy-ish for me, with all that chinese dragon mith around
[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;36513834]PYRO IS [famous actor/actress]!!!1[/QUOTE]
Well if there was any truth to that rumor a few months ago how the video is about the pyro fantasizing while he/she in reality is obliterating a real town, this has some possibility to it. Not to mention that it can give us the possibility of him seeing giant robots when in reality its poopy joe's rocket launching in the air. That would make a good cliff hanger-segway to something totally new. damn i feel like making comincs again
What's the best way to prepare to get the update as soon as possible?
[QUOTE=robotman5;36513517]I'll be at my graduation when Meet The Pyro comes out, at least i have something to look forward to afterwards!![/QUOTE]
