Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

a little late but I like that grenadier's helmet on the demoman

[QUOTE=Psychopath12;36828680]There are a number of situations where the only thing visible on a class is their head. If their entire head shares the same shape, that's a bit of a problem when it comes to identifying which class it is. The horseless headless horsemann's head, monoculus hat, and halloween masks are time-restricted and are gimmick items in the first place, so they aren't taken seriously in the first place.[/QUOTE] Holiday Headcase.

[QUOTE=MasterFen007;36828722]Holiday Headcase.[/QUOTE] an extremely limited item only a couple hundred have. I have never seen one that wasn't Bang's self made.

Does anyone else thing that the Ulapool Caber's taunt should be a taunt attack? Like when it's loaded it'd blow both you and your oppenents up like the equalizer (expect with the sticky jumper), but when it's already exploded it does just a bit of damage (maybe with a bleed effect)? Idk, it seems like a good idea to me...

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36828782]an extremely limited item only a couple hundred have. I have never seen one that wasn't Bang's self made.[/QUOTE] I have seen three + bang's. Then again I've seen and pestered 2 valve employees playing on the same server as me and met the dueller hat.

The taunt was originally made for the Bottle, as such, it makes more sense to offer someone a drink only to smash them upside the head with it. If I'm not mistaken, they opted out of doing that because they decided to go with the Close Combat Kit instead of making another Bottle, but also did it because, once shattered, the item would float in his hands while he taunts with it. Since they seem adamant about fixing the Scottish Handshake being unable to shatter, I'd much rather see that weapon get the taunt and some real stats while the Ullapool Caber just get the "Kaboom" taunt like the Pain Train does. It makes more sense than to try to make a peace offering of a [i]live explosive potato-masher grenade[/i].

While on the topic of encountering rare items, I came across somebody on an abandoned server with a legit Golden Wrench, and I've also encountered around what I think could be 30 to 40 of the $100 charity hats.

Still, it's not like everyone will wear the Nanobaclava at the same time. The chances are too small, and players have to get the hat in the first place. Classes are easily identifiable thanks to their silhouettes. I'm not saying this, Valve did. (Developper commentary - Hydro) Not to mention it's a promotionnal hat. We have the Bolt Action Blitzer, and noone ever complained about it covering heads too much.

I still think it would suit Engie because it's all high-tech and stuff. He really needs more mechanical hats. VRH is a good start but needs more.

I want it for Soldier so I can pair it with my Original. Doomguy/Ranger ho.

[QUOTE=wunderufl;36828621]Did they make you sign an NDA? If not, could you tell if they were working on anything interesting? At this point I can't imagine anything but the TF2 cabal consisting of a few guys staring out the window wistfully as another guy plays with a paddleball in just the most depressed and noncommittal fashion [I]ever[/I].[/QUOTE] No NDA, but there was really nothing worth reporting in the TF2 area. About eight-ten guys in a room, one person working on the heavy's bones, I think, and the rest either coding or running the game.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36829444]I assume he's surrendering it to the enemy, but then changing his mind and pulling a fast one think about it as if you didn't know it was originally for the bottle[/QUOTE] Always looked to me like a "now you see it, now you don't because it just EXPLODED IN YOU FACE" kind of [del]explosion[/del] magic trick. [editline]18th July 2012[/editline] Warning: The summerseal site is going really slowly at the moment. The slot's responsiveness is tied to server load.

btw the coupons stack with the summer sale so you could get Trine or Trine 2 for like a dollar each. If you wait they'll probably be a Flash or Daily again.

what hold on what is happening when do we got coupons again I am so fucking late

[QUOTE=SLBros.;36829788]what hold on what is happening when do we got coupons again I am so fucking late[/QUOTE] Frozenbytes has a slot machine that gives you Steam coupons for their games on SummerSeal.com

I won a Trine coupon I wanted a Trine 2 coupon :(

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36829913]I won a Trine coupon I wanted a Trine 2 coupon :([/QUOTE] Clear your cache/cookies and try again.

Someone awesome gave me a trine 2 coupon but it doesn't seem to work? Not getting any money off. [editline]18th July 2012[/editline] guess it doesn't stack with the summer sale. Funny enough I can't even use it to get 75% off now (T2 is 50% off)

-snip-

"Seems legit". Not sure how trustworthy this site is. Edit: Nevermind, it's by Frozenbyte, how dumb of me to not realize.

[QUOTE=testinglol;36830325]remember goal keeper?[/QUOTE] I don't. Could you refresh my memory?

[QUOTE=Kegan;36830400]I don't. Could you refresh my memory?[/QUOTE] Minigun that could destory rockets and grenades.

[QUOTE=Kegan;36830400]I don't. Could you refresh my memory?[/QUOTE] It was going to be a minigun for the heavy that in theory could destroy enemy proyectiles. The concept was scrapped and remade into an Engineer weapon (The Short Circuit)

Just got Shadowgrounds for free from summerseal, though I think I already had it... [editline]18th July 2012[/editline] Nope, had a different one. Cool
