he should go one more step and make a melee and get the first 6 piece set!
Nobody has done it yet :(
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36325786]the launcher has an extra piece at the top, and entirely different back, a shorter barrel and a different sight. Plus it's bright team colored.
Not a chance[/QUOTE]
well I agree for the most part and it looks pretty different now that I'm comparing the two, but that "different back" isn't really gonna help when you're facing one.
god DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN
I was going to make that misc.
[QUOTE=EulerMcE;36325639]There's a translation community thingamajig? They should let me translate. I know a few words in a language whose speakers almost entirely speak English. I say almost because there's probably a 3 year old being raised in it who hasn't learned any English yet. It'll be great, give me a hat.
[Though really they are better off without those incentives knowing the lengths people go to get items. On the plus side maybe it'll convince somebody to learn Urdu or something.][/QUOTE]
Volunteer translators can help translate at [url]http://translation.steampowered.com/[/url]
But please note that not all languages are supported by Steam, yours might not be included. I don't know where you might make a suggestion for your language, actually.

Some of the items are pretty clever, like the bomb exploding kit, surprised it hasn't been done before.[/QUOTE]
This is fake, where's the sword? :v:

The nade launcher looks a lot like stickyjumper.

TF2 Inception set: We must go deeper.

See, it's not that hard to make items that fit the AD. I can't wait to see the final result.

Every time, it seems somebody makes something that you're gonna make.
IT KEEPS HAPPENING

Add a taunt and make it 8 pieces.

I have no strong opinions on the whole art style thing, but those are nothing at all like the original weapons which were all team neutral, with the only notable exception being the Syringe Gun. So no I wouldn't say those fit tf2's original direction, imagine if we were back in vanilla but those were the demo's weapons. They'd look pretty out of place. Also the groundbreaker, at least to me, looks fairly attention grabbing, not something really typical of the original weapons.
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36325939]what!?

Well, if you put a demo holding stickyjumper next to a demo holding that nade launcher, it might take you a sec or two to tell the difference, especially if they're running around.

I really dont see how anyone can mistake those two items, they arent even the same colour! [sp]except for that orange trim, its the only thing that looks like something on the SJ[/sp]
he holds the weapons differently. They're different animations.
[QUOTE=Citizen Insane;36325974]Add a taunt and make it 8 pieces.[/QUOTE]
If it's a Robot set for a class, the taunt could be a robot dance.
Or one of the classes domination lines in a synthesized voice.

Really not convinced.
Well, it's like saying it's easy to tell which medic is wearing couvre corner. You know, you can tell from screenshots easily...
But whatever, it's a nice set anyway.
He's even holding it differently.
It's a silly thing but I just thought of it, something to replace the Booties and the Targe that fits the Demoman's swaggier headwear (The Hallmark, the Tavish Degroot experience and so) would be fun, too.
I hope that Valve will think of adding new explosives to Demo. I know they are kinda hard to balance because people explode in rage if it's too powerful or too weak.

These are examples of a superb work that could be added. But the problem are the stats.
I wish they could make a contest in which they give the community stats (I think ned talked about this earlier in thread or another) that they created so models are based over them and not the opposite.
It's always the stats...
Making them reskins is also an option. Sure, an option that stems of laziness, but better to have them as reskins than not have them at all...
well fellas, it's a thursday, do you think tonight might be the night?
