Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

I'm disappointed the summer sale didn't have any activities

[QUOTE=alwaysrage;36887947]I'm disappointed the summer sale didn't have any activities[/QUOTE] I survived the entire sale without buying anything, except the deus specs in the tf2 sale. I'm crying right now

[QUOTE=Ol' Pie;36888800]I survived the entire sale without buying anything, except the deus specs in the tf2 sale. I'm crying right now[/QUOTE] Well duh you didn't buy anything. You are using Linux.

I want to see if tobors taunt. If they can, the soldierbot's taunt better be it juggling it's head instead of grenades. The scoutbot's taunt would be the same as the normal scattergun taunt but it's head would be gyrating rapidly, making broken sentry sounds. Also I want the tobors to babble. Just sort of flap their jaws and make weird robot babbles, kind of like how a baby makes stupid sounds.

the wingstick doesn't show its levels and I could have fixed it but I didn't know :(

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36891724]the wingstick doesn't show its levels and I could have fixed it but I didn't know :([/QUOTE] the parrot doesnt show it's level either, for me at least anyway

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;36891897]the parrot doesnt show it's level either, for me at least anyway[/QUOTE] I fixed that, the made man and the unarmed via community schema 2.0. I did not know the Wingstick had the same, very easily fixed, bug. And it's too late now

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36891923]I fixed that, the made man and the unarmed via community schema 2.0. I did not know the Wingstick had the same, very easily fixed, bug. And it's too late now[/QUOTE] It's never too late Let's fix this game

If only Valve had the same dedication as some of the community members for fixing the small issues. Valve only fixes what they absolutely have to to prevent the community from whining.

[QUOTE=SLBros.;36892011]It's never too late Let's fix this game[/QUOTE] It's too late to put it in schema 2, which we locked on the first weekday after submission (because who the hell knows when valve looks at things). EDIT: So the seal on the store page is in a hamster wheel, powering the machines in the treehouse. This is obviously a hint for MvM, which will release with the next appearance of the seal, at the end of the year.

[QUOTE=alwaysrage;36887947]I'm disappointed the summer sale didn't have any activities[/QUOTE] The word for this year's summer sale: lackluster In other news, I got Blur, JC2 (on CC vote sale), and the Orange Box for the PoP.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;36892595]The word for this year's summer sale: lackluster In other news, I got Blur, JC2 (on CC vote sale), and the Orange Box for the PoP.[/QUOTE] I was one day late, din't get any money till today so I guess this will be the first sale I missed entirely.

[QUOTE=Quinnjdq;36892652]I was one day late, din't get any money till today so I guess this will be the first sale I missed entirely.[/QUOTE] The sale's still on until tomorrow at 12 PM CDT.

If/when MvM is released I want an all-class tinfoil hat.

Got the complete Summer Sale Badge. And now we play the waiting game...

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;36891606]I blame the russian winter scandal[/QUOTE] The russians always fuck us over. First that and now no activities for the summer sale. Also spamming random shit on the workshop.

[QUOTE=alwaysrage;36892719]If/when MvM is released I want an all-class tinfoil hat.[/QUOTE] If Valve sniffs the last three threads and gives everyone who has a Steam profile linked to their Facepunch profile one and posted in either of those three, everyone here would be a happy person.

Wait, is Valve watching this thread? :v:

[QUOTE=NateDude;36893585]Wait, is Valve watching this thread? :v:[/QUOTE] Drunken_F00l posted something in one of the last two threads, so technically, yes, Valve did go on the thread.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;36892838]If Valve sniffs the last three threads and gives everyone who has a Steam profile linked to their Facepunch profile one and posted in either of those three, everyone here would be a happy person.[/QUOTE] It'll be like the lo-fi longwave thing all over again :tinfoil:

[QUOTE=Lobster_fists;36893663]It'll be like the lo-fi longwave thing all over again :tinfoil:[/QUOTE] Unless they did it just once for MvM.

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;36891606]I blame the russian winter scandal[/QUOTE] Russian Winter Scandal? What happened?

[QUOTE=Grimhound;36893838]Russian Winter Scandal? What happened?[/QUOTE] As far as I know there was some exploit with the humble bundle to get tons of coal, which resulted in tons of free games.

[QUOTE=Grimhound;36893838]Russian Winter Scandal? What happened?[/QUOTE] The crooks bought the Winter Humble indie bundles for a penny each. Therefore they were able to get 100 bundles per $1 or 1000 bundles per $10. They then did the Winter achievements (or just used SAM to unlock them quickly) and farmed coal. This caused two things to happen: 1. Humble Indie Bundle no longer sells Steam keys for those who purchase bundles under $1. 2. So many coals were farmed by these crooks that after a while Steam ran out of coupons and games from non-Valve entities. Crafting coal or unlocking winter achievements only resulted in Valve coupons or games.

Should be above the average to be honest, so that the crooks don't continue to buy for absolute minimum.

The exploits and mistakes that were made are easily correctable. Think about it, the Pyro ARG was done super, duper last second and the summer sale was done very late with no activities. If I would make a guess, it seems that Valve is working on something that is taking a large part of their resources.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;36892838]If Valve sniffs the last three threads and gives everyone who has a Steam profile linked to their Facepunch profile one and posted in either of those three, everyone here would be a happy person.[/QUOTE] Posting just in case you're right :v:
