TF2 Blog: "The Fourth Annual Scream Fortress Begins Tomorrow!" - Games

I bet the potion effects will be Halloween restricted.

Halloween restrictions or no, those spells better not be ultra rare drops. Most of the servers I go to set themselves to full moon mode anyway, and I'll be damned if I don't get flaming footsteps for my Pyro.

I don't like the idea of Halloween items and effects being available all year. Just look at the Smissmass items. No, [I]look at them.[/I] If they were only available during the Smissmass events (or on the 25th of each month), they'd be a lot more special.

[QUOTE=Ermac20;38189049]doubt they will as valve never made animations for the loch n load, rocket launchers or fixed the reloads for the revolvers[/QUOTE] Well look at it this way: They spent the time to make 8 (9?) unique robot versions of the classes, complete with custom animations And yet they still haven't fixed the loch n load I don't know what to expect at this point

The thing about the Smissmass items is that they're... well, the [i]Smissmass items[/i]. One of the more common complaints I've heard about TF2 holidays is that people would have vastly preferred Invisible Men and Van Helsings running around all year over Smissmas Trees and Elves.

Old content is less fun to fix.

A zombie MvM map? I FUCKING CALLED THAT SHIT [editline]26th October 2012[/editline] AND I AM EXCITED

Well that's just coal town at night though, I guess I am late.

[QUOTE=Ducksink;38188998]I hope the zombies have new animations[/QUOTE] New sounds?

"Shifting paint colours!" oh my god, this better not be a full moon effect i mean SHIFTING PAINT COLOURS! that's like rainbow hats!!!

Good thing it's starting tonight, that's when I'm on my school holidays.

Dibs on final unknown boss in that MvM 666 zombie wave mess... But seriously, I would love to see a MvM where ghosts actually harrass you and get you scared, not able to use your weapons, running for your life, or jamming your weapon trigger, not able to shoot due to scare. That zombie boss will tear your asses apart, oh yea... Lookin' forward to it! P.S. I think those spells drops might be related to the 666 zombie wave mission. If it is, prepare your tickets folks, yeya :P

[QUOTE=nazzer117;38189934]"Shifting paint colours!" oh my god, this better not be a full moon effect i mean SHIFTING PAINT COLOURS! that's like rainbow hats!!![/QUOTE]I wouldn't be at all surprised if it just acted like a one-use, randomly-color paint can. I hope I'm wrong though. I want to be able to paint one hat multiple colors and have it show up different depending on what class is wearing it/what team I'm on.

I told ya there would be zombies on halloween on the day MvM came out :v: And yay, it's going to be 2 weeks, I feared it'd be shorter this year!

It's the 4th Scream Fortress update already. I feel pretty old right now...

The first Scream Fortress I'll actually get to play all of.

Only problem is, what do I play - KOTH or MvM?

[QUOTE=ThatSprite;38190181]Only problem is, what do I play - KOTH or MvM?[/QUOTE] King of the Man vs. Machine Hill obviously.

This is wonderful. Just absolutely wonderful.

[QUOTE=yellowoboe;38190196]King of the Man vs. Machine Hill obviously.[/QUOTE] With additional propane accessories.

Is the KotH map Viaduct Event with Monoculous replaced by Merasmus? Based on the description, that's almost what it sounds like.

[QUOTE=En Ex;38190297]Is the KotH map Viaduct Event with Monoculous replaced by Merasmus? Based on the description, that's almost what it sounds like.[/QUOTE] I really hope it's a new map. If it's just Viaduct again, or a reskin of another existing map it's going to be extremely disapointing.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;38190321]Oh shit And I thought he got sick of his Scout role[/QUOTE] How could you possibly get bored doing the scout voice?

[QUOTE=mooman1080;38190326]How could you possibly get bored doing the scout voice?[/QUOTE] He seems to hate it when people bring it up on his YouTube channel, like he resents that he can't get away from it or something. Dude wants to do his own thing, I guess.

Well this was an awesome thing to wake up to!
