Major Update Speculation: V8: Rise of the Machines! - Games

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;37821219]Well, now that we have that problem resolved, some speculation. SPUF is on flames over the Gunslinger, for no reason at all. Would it be possible that Valve were to nerf it? Because if that happens, I'll give up on this game.[/QUOTE] the engineer's stability and effectiveness mostly depends on his teammates so no, his unlocks probably won't be touched (only the pomson/widow have ever been changed in his entire gear)

Is the staff all class? If so that's not good for stats :x [editline]27th September 2012[/editline] and we don't really need another all-class weapon, the Pan, Saxxy and Objector are plenty...

No way that thing's gonna be a knife reskin. 'I shall now stab you in the back with a giant walking stick! Er, wait...'

Er, wait...'[/QUOTE] You know if Spy's saxxy animations were better, I could totally see a club like weapon for him, where it isn't a backstab, but more of a club to the back of the head.

could be pain train, but adding pyro to the mix sounds like something they'd do i sure would edit: yea ned - spy needs a slapjack. a good use of the stun mechanic

honestly that looks like it would work a lot better with Pyro and Demoman's two handed animations, if we're going on the assumption it's all class (or most class if you want to get picky). It'll also look pretty ridiculous on Medic and Sniper (like the Objector does)

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37821206]I hope Napoleon goes down 75-90% off. That Medic/Spy coat would finally give me a way for Spy to not look kind of not cool wearing a wiki cap. Him and Scout are my least favorite wearing it, and that jacket would make it so he becomes some sort of general assassin or something[/QUOTE] Unfortunately, cosmetics like that look a bit weird whenever the player wearing them is coated in jarate or something of that sort. The cosmetics aren't colored in the same way and it looks jarring; it's for technical reasons so it's not on the shoulders of those who created it. Other than that, it looks fantastic.

Which is funny, usually something like that would bother me... but it doesn't

[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;37821258]If only Spy could use the Conscientious Objector.[/QUOTE] And the Coupe D'isaster

Considering that the torso is most important for player and threat identification, it's a bigger deal than having arms that aren't discolored correctly.

I don't know how hard it would be for them to actually implement. With full on new clothes being the new big thing, this might be something they should address, even if it's more visually jarring than any sort of gameplay problem. [editline]27th September 2012[/editline] The staff is confirmed Soldier only Stats VERY likely imo at this point

I sure hope that soldier staff thing has unique stats! I've been sitting on a huge pile of craftable weapons for a reason! Well, I was hoping for more than one reason, as it were. But new toys are new toys!

[QUOTE=SLBros.;37821591]Holy fu- [B]I NEED THIS ITEM[/B][/QUOTE] I will trade my stupid amount of random cosmetics just for these items and nametags. Need to have a Von Karma and matching Edgeworth Set. Shame I can't really make him look like Phoenix

[QUOTE=Zeos;37821686]I will trade my stupid amount of random cosmetics just for these items and nametags. Need to have a Von Karma and matching Edgeworth Set. Shame I can't really make him look like Phoenix[/QUOTE] Now we need a taser for the spy and we are done.

If I trade for Napoleon: Total War, I get the Medic item. Correct?

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;37821743]Now we need a taser for the spy and we are done.[/QUOTE] I'm pretty certain there was a polycount entry way back when that had one. That would've been great.

[QUOTE=Pako;37821431]And the Coupe D'isaster[/QUOTE] Reminds me of [URL="http://www.tf2items.com/item/425291024"]this thing[/URL] I used to have.

Glad to see many of you like the promo items, well at least from the poster, the wolf hat should be for Heavy and Demoman (slashed dead eye), but in the poster it wasn't final, Valve wanted to tweak the texture/paint, so we will see what it looks like once these are added ingame. The staff should be for soldier only as its a roman symbol it seemed to be most fitting for the soldier. And I am saying "should" as it is originally planned though Valve maybe can change things last minute I guess. Here have a ridiculously big poster, I made it for Sega but it seems that Valve liked it and used it in the store page too :dance: [T]http://i.imgur.com/EzBWN.jpg[/T] With the mask: [T]http://i.imgur.com/2yjDf.jpg[/T]

[QUOTE=omegasupreme1;37821759]If I trade for Napoleon: Total War, I get the Medic item. Correct?[/QUOTE] It would seem that's the Napoleon item, yes.

[QUOTE=spd12;37821763]I'm pretty certain there was a polycount entry way back when that had one. That would've been great.[/QUOTE] Yeah, is Mico spytech set but I can't find the download link from the mod.

I'm pissed if this had come out for my Birthday, I would've asked for this. I really want the Total War Games!

You made the poster too?

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;37821831]You made the poster too?[/QUOTE] Yes, [URL="http://i.imgur.com/EzBWN.jpg"]this one[/URL], though not the rest that's on the store page of course.

So which of them are paintable?

Wolf pelt

[QUOTE=Simski;37822049]Wolf pelt[/QUOTE] all dem pink wolves A furry's dreamland.

I wouldn't rule it out :v:

I want those games now. I am quite the fan of RTS games even since I've played Battle for Middle Earth 1 and 2. Any good soul want to spare atleast one of the games? I don't care which one, even though the Spy/Medic one would be nice.
