Major Update Speculation Thread V3: Tonight's the Night, forever and always - Games

[QUOTE=timman;36243287]Grasping at straws but what if the big update is coming out soon? Explains for the lack of today's weekly update. Rainbows ahoy.[/QUOTE] As long as there isn't any form of leak or announcement, I wouldn't get my hopes up. These little updates gave us something to speculate and maybe something we liked (and bought), but [i]nothing[/i] is kinda frustrating seeing there hasn't been any other form of update over the past half year. You can't simply build up a sort of constancy and then throw it away, but hey, this is valve, they're allowed to do everything, right?

If they're taking breaks from doing regular updates perhaps they're now too busy to do them and finishing off a major one instead.

[QUOTE=tso;36242088]well if it's any consolation, it doesn't look like dota2 gets an update either[/QUOTE] We got it yesterday, we're getting update on Wednesdays.

This is the TF2 thread goddamnit. We have places to discuss dota you know. I don't play dota and I'm not interested in it. It's TF2 that is free to play, in all logic it's TF2 that valve should be updating. I mean I'd be okay with TF2 not being updated, if valve hadn't promised us that it would be a big year of TF2. So far it's been a year of forgettable hats, and one weapon nobody uses anymore.

[QUOTE=Razi The Red;36244544]What weapon was it again?[/QUOTE] [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Cozy_Camper]Cozy Camper[/url] I understand if you couldn't remember.

One of the most passive weapons in the game.

[QUOTE=Evil_Knevil;36244670]Oh my god: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/wetaworkshop/myworkshopfiles/?appid=440[/url][/QUOTE] FUCK YES

[QUOTE=Evil_Knevil;36244670]Oh my god: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/wetaworkshop/myworkshopfiles/?appid=440[/url][/QUOTE] Looks like Scout's getting a backpack bodygroup. (And before anyone tries to bring up Lucky no. 42 for the millionth time, no, that did not add a backpack bodygroup for Scout.)

Well that means something will happen in the near future.

well shit.. i didn't expect to see that at 4 am..

Hmm, all cosmetic stuff so far. INCREDIBLE cosmetic stuff but still cosmetic. They must be holding onto the weapons for an update reveal.

[QUOTE=Evil_Knevil;36244670]Oh my god: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/wetaworkshop/myworkshopfiles/?appid=440[/url][/QUOTE] "The Futuristic 'Future Hat' of the Future" I think that that hat is supposed to be from the future.

[QUOTE=tso;36244716]well shit.. i didn't expect to see that at 4 am..[/QUOTE] Well, they're from New Zealand [editline]8th June 2012[/editline] I hope those gloves show up in first person

[QUOTE=usaokay;36244751]The Medic's Death Ray better be a Heal/Hurt gun similar to Monday Night Combat's Support.[/QUOTE] would promote battle medics. if they make it a heal/hurt gun, i will be as angry as when they released the quick fix. (very)

Soldier got a comic. Engineer and pyro got a comic. Should we expect some medic and scout shenanigans?

The Medic's backpack has the tubing going the wrong way.

[QUOTE=psyke;36244810]The Medic's backpack has the tubing going the wrong way.[/QUOTE] New Zealand is a left driving country, so why not a left handed backpack.

[QUOTE=Damoman;36244804]Soldier got a comic. Engineer and pyro got a comic. Should we expect some medic and scout shenanigans?[/QUOTE] We had better, they are both my favorite classes

[QUOTE=Evil_Knevil;36244670]Oh my god: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/wetaworkshop/myworkshopfiles/?appid=440[/url][/QUOTE] Every time I just give up on TF2, there's small rays of hope inb4 Valve was waiting for WETA to finish so they can ship the packs with the update Then it turns out the WETA packs are the only weapons in the update

[QUOTE=usaokay;36244686]WETA: Okay, which one do you like more? Scout or Medic? Community: Medic. WETA: Fuck it, we'll do both. Alrighty then.[/QUOTE] Hey at least we get both, everyone wins. ...Unless the mule molestor can ignite people as an alt-fire. Wouldn't that be fun? :v:

(And before anyone tries to bring up Lucky no. 42 for the millionth time, no, that did not add a backpack bodygroup for Scout.)[/QUOTE] Nope, you can clearly see that it goes over it, just like the lucky 42. And the medic one won't be tied to the weapon, which means the glasses will be a hat, so not compatible with other hats. Too bad...

[QUOTE=NapyDaWise;36244891]Nope, you can clearly see that it goes over it, just like the lucky 42.

Too bad...[/QUOTE] It would be very poor form to let something like that just float on the backpack. I see it in the screenshot, but it doesn't seem to have been made to accommodate the bag's geometry. Besides, we all know how much Valve loves adding bodygroups for promos.

God damn I love that song. Also I'm getting way more hyped than I probably should be but... please for the love of god: LET NEXT WEEK BE THE WEEK. [I]please[/I]
