Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

I remember I thought The Value of Teamwork paints were opposite colored (ex. Red paint for Blu, Blu paint for red) Which I found pretty ironic. Then I realized I was wrong :(

[QUOTE=Raptors!;36605115]I'm suprised that Demoman still doesn't have any anti-building melee weapons like pyro's homewrecker. I mean, destroying enemy buildings is one of his main objectives.[/QUOTE] bombs

he could probably use the Homewrecker as it is now, with the sword animations

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36605146]he could probably use the Homewrecker as it is now, with the sword animations[/QUOTE] what about the bombs, that would be pointless

Demoman has more (non-melee) weapons that can't hurt buildings than can, the same amount if we don't count the Bootlegger

[QUOTE=Insane516;36605130]bombs[/QUOTE] I often find myself in a situation where I find an enemy dispenser/teleporter in a small closed space.

Can't damage buildings - Booties - Sticky Jumper - Screen - Targe Can - Grenade Launcher - LnL - Stickies - Scotres

[QUOTE=Raptors!;36605190]I often find myself in a situation where I find an enemy dispenser/teleporter in a small closed space.[/QUOTE] so shoot a few stickies, retreat to a safe distance, and then detonate them manually?

Melee weapons for destroying buildings is kind of pointless, because you sure as hell won't have an easy time getting close to anything but dispensers and teleporters using a melee weapon, and even then you might as well use your normal weapons anyway.

[QUOTE=The Calzone;36605408]so shoot a few stickies, retreat to a safe distance, and then detonate them manually?[/QUOTE] but then you have to move away, exposing yourself to enemy team with an unloaded stickybomb launcher.

I'm thinking they're going to do more and more with this new Old West-themed town in the future. And more and more I'm thinking it's meant to be Teufort (the city/town they keep referencing, not the CTF map). What with Meet the Pyro taking place in it, the City on Fire Update page resembling it, the new old west-themed map found in the secret room on sp_doomsday, and part of the Loose Canon comic taking place in a similar area, I wonder if this new MvM mode (or perhaps just a new map in general) might center around an Old West-theme. It'd be great if they released the props for map makers.

[QUOTE=Segab;36605713]but then you have to move away, exposing yourself to enemy team with an unloaded stickybomb launcher.[/QUOTE] Equip the grenade launcher.

Wait, so does team paint drop or not?

I need to learn how to make that cool as fuck lighting in SFM.

I need to learn how to properly use SFM. My attempts have been disasterous at best... Shiny bats! Heavy minigun shooting out from heavy's torso! Smoke in the middle of 2fort!

I wish SFM would actually work with my PC ;(

I wish I was actually in the SFM beta ._.

so can we expect valve to go back to regular 1-item thursdays again?

Probably two weeks or so

[QUOTE=omegasupreme1;36606820]As far as I know the sight on the model has always been fine, the animations make it clip in to the launcher.[/QUOTE] hmm, didn't know that

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36606866]hmm, didn't know that[/QUOTE] Try spawning it in Gmod or loading it in Hlmv without any animations.

[QUOTE=dageek;36606530]Next major update confirmed: the Loch n Load update[/QUOTE] Patch notes: - Loch-n-Load animation bugs fixed - Loch-n-Load stats buffed: -- +30% damage bonus (from +20%) -- +40% projecticle speed (from +25%) - 5 Loch-n-Load Reskins added - Loch-n-Load can now also be used as a hat - Loch-n-Load is now all-class - New game mode: Loch-n-Load Shootout (only Loch-n-Load is allowed) - The game has been renamed to Loch-n-Load Land 2 Then they'll also release Meet the Loch-n-Load and two comics about Loch-n-Load.

When they fix the loch-n-load, I think they'll make a blog post about it, because they just can't let the butt of a joke go on that long and then not comment when they fix it.
