Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

Anybody got their robot chicken hat code yet?

Is it just me or is the item server lagging terribly?

[QUOTE=Mysterious Mr.E;36535752]Anybody got their robot chicken hat code yet?[/QUOTE] You are the 3rd to ask on the last page alone.

How exactly does the Pyrovision Goggles change the world? Very clever effects, or does it actually change the textures?

[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;36535878]How exactly does the Pyrovision Goggles change the world? Very clever effects, or does it actually change the textures?[/QUOTE] Both.

might've been said, but for anyone stuck on trading: hit f5, eventually your TF2 inv will show up. [img_thumb]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/1171183565429220722/44C94F319871C730A2856930F42C62EE58224432/[/img_thumb] got a bunch of the new items right away c:

[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;36535878]How exactly does the Pyrovision Goggles change the world? Very clever effects, or does it actually change the textures?[/QUOTE] It changes the overlay, the fog, the textures, sprites, and everything else.

[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;36535878]How exactly does the Pyrovision Goggles change the world? Very clever effects, or does it actually change the textures?[/QUOTE] Some models are changed as well. The Rainblower, Lollichop, Jingle Belt, Burning Bongos, Infernal Orchestrina, and Captain's Cocktails are all confirmed to be changed. The Rainblower and Lollichop appear as their stock counterparts when not in Pyrovision. Bongos and Orchestrina aren't visible when out of Pyrovision. Jingle Belt and Cocktails become baby bottles when in Pyrovision. Not sure if other grenade items become bottles yet, we need someone to check. Also, Domination and Revenge are replaced with "X is BEST FRIENDS with Y" and "Y BROKE UP WITH X".

I hope for a Day 4 but I don't expect robots or whatever. Just a small addendum, with some coo' items in it.

I hate pyrovision flowers, they're all red and I almost shoot them when I'm sniping because they look kinda like heads.

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;36535926]Not sure if other grenade items become bottles yet, we need someone to check.[/QUOTE] I'd assume that they would change into bottles, as there are models for Pyro, Soldier and Demo versions of the bottles. Of course, I wouldn't put it past Valve to not have some of them turn into bottles for some weird reason...

[QUOTE=Zannabluke;36535978]I hope for a Day 4 but I don't expect robots or whatever. Just a small addendum, with some coo' items in it.[/QUOTE] Prepare for great dissapointment

only the bombs, jingle belt and new grenades are set in the schema to turn. I wonder why they didn't just use the ornaments. Those are all-grenade-class anyway.

-wrong thread-

The patch notes have really saved this update for me, and the weapons are good fun big improvement since the uber update. I wonder if MvM will have a similiar format of update, or if it will just be focused on the robots.

OMG AHAHAHA the Rainblower's kill taunt can kill through gates ahaha, I just took out like 5 people.

I kinda feel like they got all the fixes out of the way this week to make sure that the next "day" is going to be really well made.

Machina,Cozy Camper,Shanshalash master race.

I feel that tonight we're getting a big bug fix

Is it just me, or does the Heatmaker not do less damage on Bodyshots?

[QUOTE=Derp Y. Mail;36535878]How exactly does the Pyrovision Goggles change the world? Very clever effects, or does it actually change the textures?[/QUOTE] Magic

[QUOTE=Archimedes;36536150]Is it just me, or does the Heatmaker not do less damage on Bodyshots?[/QUOTE] Oh, it does less. Just the math makes it considerably less than it lets it out to be. Or maybe it is bugged, who knows.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36535306]the items are not part of sets, there are no sets this update. I'll see about fixing it Also Heatmaker glows fine [thumb]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/939248184620172153/6CE78C952D2AAA822C4A7256FD1A093760D3C152/[/thumb][/QUOTE] Maybe you can convince valve to add in the melee weapon they left out. :v:

chances are, if it seems bugged, it is

[QUOTE=Goodwell;36536169]Oh, it does less. Just the math makes it considerably less than it lets it out to be. Or maybe it is bugged, who knows.[/QUOTE] Maybe. My hit markers still read around 50 damage done, and if it's applied during Focus it doesn't make a difference because of the charge time. If that is the case and it doesn't do less damage, the weapon is essentially a straight upgrade in it's current state. Could be something minor with ramp up that I'm just not getting.

Also no idea why the Equalizer didn't just keep it's old skin and they didn't just give the Escape Plan the shovel from the Dumpster pack, would be be a lot easier to tell them apart from a distance and for a kill icon. v:v:v

I'm too used to the Equalizer as it was.
