Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

Update incoming, seems to be general source engine changes since HLDS says it's for TF2, HL2DM, and CS:S

[QUOTE=dageek;36597871]Update incoming, seems to be general source engine changes since HLDS says it's for TF2, HL2DM, and CS:S[/QUOTE] Yea, but those usually have TF2 specific fixes too.

[QUOTE=CommodoreV;36597855]-snip- Ned already answered it. I do wish Team Paints would start dropping again. I'm tired of traders decking their hats out with Mint and After Eight in waves; before that, it was Operator's Overalls on [I]everything.[/I] (I can live with Cream Spirit everywhere.)[/QUOTE] They are dropping...

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36597896]They are dropping...[/QUOTE] I wouldn't get too excited, Balaclavas is still showing the same number I recorded earlier

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36597912]I wouldn't get too excited, Balaclavas is still showing the same number I recorded earlier[/QUOTE] I've seen paint drops today, but it was one of the colors that normally drops anyway (the weird super long number one)

Why is it Tony? I WANT ERIC!

[QUOTE=dageek;36597924]I've seen paint drops today, but it was one of the colors that normally drops anyway (the weird super long number one)[/QUOTE] 216-190-216? It's unprecedented for Team Paints to drop, though. I'm not convinced yet, but what do I know?

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36597954]Why is it Tony? I WANT ERIC![/QUOTE] yea, f00l sending the email was different. He hasn't done that in a year or so.

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;36596320]update makes all unusual effects viewable in pyrovision only[/QUOTE] Bitter Taste of Defeat and Lime and Pink as Hell now only appear in Pyroland. These paints appear as Indubitably Green and A Deep Commitment to Purple respectively outside of Pyroland.

Pink gets the shaft while black is free to ravage eyeballs? No way D:

But, black makes everything look cooler. I want to paint my summer shades black, they are ugly with that yellow.

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36598076]But, black makes everything look cooler. I want to paint my summer shades black, they are ugly with that yellow.[/QUOTE] Not the shade of black that black paint uses. It destroys detail.

[QUOTE=Cyanlime;36597988]Bitter Taste of Defeat and Lime and Pink as Hell now only appear in Pyroland. These paints appear as Indubitably Green and A Deep Commitment to Purple respectively outside of Pyroland.[/QUOTE] I could certainly live with this, although every now and then there is that ONE hat or item that just kinda looks nice/cool with one of those paints. But for all the brony-themed outfits I wouldn't have to see anymore, it's a more than fair trade. Random thought: we need stickers that can be put on weapons and items. Kinda like a decal, but maybe you could have multiple on the same thing? And you could choose one of several places to put it? It would make a nice promo thing as opposed to reskin promo items. I just keep thinking about a companion cube sticker to go on my Black Box.....

[QUOTE=igotopinions;36598060]Pink gets the shaft while black is free to ravage eyeballs? No way D:[/QUOTE] whats wrong with black? One of the paints that actually makes some hats look good.

well for black shades there's always speks, but those are smaller

Cream Spirit is a pretty underrated paint. Like Water Logged Raincoat. [editline]3rd July 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Kaze1;36598153]now that's ugly[/QUOTE] it's the colors the item should be by default

I want a team paint that is red from team spirit. [QUOTE][IMG]http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/4/4b/Painted_Summer_Shades_B8383B.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] and blue from the value of teamwork [QUOTE][IMG]http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/5/59/Painted_Summer_Shades_256D8D.png[/IMG][/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36598129]VS[/QUOTE] The dark shade of black paint should be toned down a lot I reckon. If I recall correctly its hexadecimal code is currently #000000 (the absolute darkest shade of black possible), and that just makes hats look like they've been painted over with black from MSPaint.

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36598162]I want a team paint that is red from team spirit. and blue from the value of teamwork[/QUOTE] this is a very valid answer

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36598156] it's the colors the item should be by default[/QUOTE] Why not Team Spirit or Value of Teamwork? That makes sense.

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36598076]I want to paint my summer shades black, they are ugly with that yellow.[/QUOTE] Do Team Spirit. Painting them TS also hides clipping issues between the Shades and some hats, like the Hustler's Hallmark, for instance. Black just isn't worth it for the shades, I think. [QUOTE=NeoDement]Not the shade of black that black paint uses. It destroys detail.[/QUOTE] The only item I've been pleased with in black paint is my Foster's Facade, because the paint on that texture makes it look the same color as the Pyro's gloves or the Attendant most of the time; occasionally weird lighting screws it up. I really want that workshop-submitted paint to get in, but I'm afraid it would make my black items lose value... Besides, I doubt the team likes the idea of their losing revenue from Black paints in the store. By the way, stats.tf also records Lack of Hue drops (270) and white drops (271). It seems too good to be true, especially since the new hats seem to have a really small number of timed drops thus far.

[QUOTE=Kaze1;36598169]Why not Team Spirit or Value of Teamwork? That makes sense.[/QUOTE] I was keeping to the yellow theme

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36598156]Cream Spirit is a pretty underrated paint. Like Water Logged Raincoat. [editline]3rd July 2012[/editline] it's the colors the item should be by default[/QUOTE] And I find it far less annoying than the default color personally.
