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

[QUOTE=igotopinions;36307008]Feeling the need to point out the names of the existing playerbots, here Also I think the l4d crew still needs to record voicelines for the Cold Stream Campaign, right? I haven't played it yet (waiting till it's done), but there's probably a rescue radio or somesuch thing that needs a new voice. Valve is pretty fond of getting people they've already worked with.[/QUOTE] L4D2 is still missing voicework for Cold Stream, in addition to several lines from L4D, music from L4D, and lines for new items in L4D2 that weren't in L4D (adrenaline, bile, etc.). Also, Cold Stream has no poster. Also, you missed out never playing the beta; fun memories, lol.

[QUOTE=MacD11;36306530]So last night i sent robin an email and i got an reply. [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/censoredrobinyes1.png[/img] I feel this is fairly relevant to whats going on right now. EDIT: What a great 3,400th post![/QUOTE] i just shat my pants.

If it's this week, i'm gonna be ecstatic. If it's next week, i'm gonna be ecstatic. All in all, my hype is coming back.

[quote]You are going to be very happy with us, and quite soon now[/quote] Holy shit guys! They've finally fixed the replays! :v:

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36304887]With their costumer focused ideas for business[/QUOTE] Costumer focused? Well, it still makes sense anyway.

I'm thinking next week is the week. A new blog post on Monday. Comic on Tuesday. Saxxys on Wednesday. MvM update on Thursday. MtP + update on Friday.

Oh god, someone on spuf said crsk might mean character skin. Oh... Oh... That... Works out too well... But... No... Don't do it valve!

Valve is pretty fond of getting people they've already worked with.[/QUOTE] Well they have said that Cold Stream was moving away from the story so they didn't need any additional dialogue, but I doubt they also expected the campaign to take this long to develop. So if they're bringing back the L4D2 voice actors for Payday/TF2 robots/whatever then I don't see why they wouldn't throw in some dialogue for L4D. Heck, even if they're only bringing in the L4D1 voice actors they could still use them record lines for L4D2's content. Sorry to go off-track but I've been pulling my hair out over how poorly the L4D franchise has been supported and balanced.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307164]Oh god, someone on spuf said crsk might mean character skin. Oh... Oh... That... Works out too well... But... No... Don't do it valve! [/QUOTE] CharacterSkin could/would be a way to make TOBORS out of classes, kinda like natasha and the kritz.

Maybe each team gets a bot spawner, and you can change the skin of the bots you spawn

What is out of place for that is glados and cube. one is a huge immobile air, the other is a box.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307250]Maybe each team gets a bot spawner, and you can change the skin of the bots you spawn[/QUOTE] and the skins are only found in crates.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307250]Maybe each team gets a bot spawner, and you can change the skin of the bots you spawn[/QUOTE] or maybe the skin will change like this [img]http://archer.gamebanana.com/img/ss/skins/42860.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307164]Oh god, someone on spuf said crsk might mean character skin. Oh... Oh... That... Works out too well... But... No... Don't do it valve! [/QUOTE] It could also be Crossover Skin.

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;36307282]or maybe the skin will change like this [img]http://archer.gamebanana.com/img/ss/skins/42860.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] This is why I'm afraid of player skins

Glados and dog skins would be impossible.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307250]Maybe each team gets a bot spawner, and you can change the skin of the bots you spawn[/QUOTE] As far as we know there's only the defending team at the moment, I'd say it's either for switching playermodels to other valve characters in the mode or to modify the classes to be TOBORS. Valve doesn't like to change only what some players see, otherwise we'd have cosmetics that change enemy classes or the bomb cart...

Is tf2 becoming Valve all-stars?

So in about 24 hours we went from extremely hyped...to critical pessimism...to extremely hyped once more.

[QUOTE=emmens;36307397]So in about 24 hours we went from extremely hyped...to critical pessimism...to extremely hyped once more.[/QUOTE] This has been a wild week, which makes me feel like we're very close

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307416]This has been a wild week, which makes me feel like we're very close[/QUOTE] good god I hope so. My heart can't take all this being strung about by hints and mischievous contributors

So... what did I miss? Everyone seems super excited again.

[QUOTE=dageek;36307634]So... what did I miss? Everyone seems super excited again.[/QUOTE] it was found in the server DLL that they added content for a lobby system, possible player skins, and more tobor stuff. All added last night

Am I bad for actually wanting a Valve All-Stars game?

Tank vs Atlas vs Soldier vs Random Terrorist vs Axe vs Day of Defeat Man vs Gordon vs Ricochet Man FIGHT

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;36307315]valve-kart racing[/QUOTE] I really want this now.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36307706]Tank vs Atlas vs Soldier vs Random Terrorist vs Axe vs Day of Defeat Man vs Gordon vs Ricochet Man FIGHT[/QUOTE] Who is axe.
