[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37747169]Live? It's like 5am in Valve Land[/QUOTE]

6am, but still pretty damn early.

[Inspecter]

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37746829]Per my suggestion to them, hopefully the new compiler has a checkbox for weapons and automatically adds crit glow parameters :)

that would explain why some perfectly regular items (not based on ip or anything) are marked incompatible recently.[/QUOTE]

But how would a compiler work for something like texture fixes?

well, since it's valve, it would automatically send it to the ignore list for you :v:

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37746999]also L4D2 will be getting workshop submissions for weapons, scripts, maps and mutations so I guess more new weapons for L4D2! (which it's needed for a long time).

also also I'm emailing them today about one of the oldest animation bugs in the entire game, one that actually causes a lot of problems. The Dead Ringer Cloak meter.[/QUOTE]

They should fix the broken meters if you use flipped viewmodels too

Not speculation:

Where is the new emporium?

I figured the cloak meter being broken was a reference to Android in some way.

it did work, then they changed the cloak time on the watch and never bothered to update the animation

[david]

[HazzaHardie]

give update please

at the time ayesdyef had posted it 2 hours ago on my steam page, so it was early/late.
It was posted live, don't argue with me.

[Hell-met]

still no machine bots for TFbots

:/

I'm surprised it isn't just a toggle-able server command

[QUOTE=Erfly;37749634]I'm surprised it isn't just a toggle-able server command[/QUOTE]

Engineers don't have a bot yet, though

[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;37749654]Engineers don't have a bot yet, though[/QUOTE]

if you take a look at the tin-1000 I'm pretty sure they had something in mind

[Jitters]

Even if should the Halloween Update flop, at least we'll have plenty of goodies from the Night Of The Living Update.

[Damian0358]

Seems like Dota 2 updated. Hope for a TF2 update?

[Drury]

But of course, they need to sweep the fall crates.

[ned_ballad]

technically they can do that without a true patch, but they never have before with event crates

[Zeos]

I really hope there is Castle Crashers promos, if only to wash the taste of bad promos out of my mouth.

[thatswordguy]

I hope with the Halloween update they announce the removal of the holiday restrictions on hats and miscs

[Damian0358]

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37750972]technically they can do that without a true patch, but they never have before with event crates[/QUOTE]

Well, don't they have to put the Fall Crate contents into the Mann Co. Store?

[ned_ballad]

[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;37750999]I hope with the Halloween update they announce the removal of the holiday restrictions on hats and miscs[/QUOTE]

only the costume pieces.

The Pumpkin HEad and Huge Eyeball are restricted for gameplay reasons

[editline]21st September 2012[/editline]

[QUOTE=Damian0358;37751035]Well, don't they have to put the Fall Crate contents into the Mann Co. Store?[/QUOTE]

doesn't require a patch either

Um, bug fixes? Wait, they break those too, right?

Then they wouldn't be special.

You seem to be forgetting the latest promos.

We're working on a mandatory update for TF2. We should have it ready soon.
