[QUOTE=Atlascore;37204117]<Warning - Silly hopes and dreams below, skip if not interested - Warning> I think "MvM" might be TF3, I seriously hope they haven't spent over two years hyping up and developing a new gamemode and a couple maps. -TF2 is almost five years old, there's only so much that can be done through patches -Within two months both CS:GO and Dota 2 will be released, leaving Valve to work on EP3 and.. ? -Game Informer was asked to withhold their next cover until August 14th, this coming Tuesday -Gamescom is next week, Valve is confirmed to be there, the perfect place to show off a new game[/QUOTE] Last time I speculated about TF3 I received PM death treats, an army of birds shitting on me during five days and a pony head in my bed. People here don't like the idea of TF3 being a thing, it seems
Wait so this update will convert all weapons into combined viewmodels? Which means the stickly launcher will finally be wielded with 2 hands?
[QUOTE=alwaysrage;37204244]Might want to snip that, buddy.[/QUOTE] Why? Did I do something wrong?
[QUOTE=Atlascore;37204198]Sorry for being optimistic and hoping that the thing Valve's been working on for over two years is something more important than a couple maps and a crappy gamemode that will be played for a week then forgotten.[/QUOTE] No, see, let me tell you where you went wrong. I'll just repost what I said in my edit since you probably looked past it. Let me just clarify exactly the kind of problem I have with posts like this suggesting that Valve should make TF3 or whatever. You're not accounting the fact that the game is constantly being built upon. They won't just throw out TF2 like a used rag when it has this much progression on it. It isn't even aging badly. Also, if you didn't already know, Valve only uses the Source engine. TF3 wouldn't be able to surpass TF2's *GRAFIX* unless it used some kind of completely original shader system and art style that somehow made it look better. [B]TL;DR: There's literally nothing that Valve could do in a sequel to TF2 which they couldn't address through patches and updates.[/B]
Things I want (but prolly won't happen) * New Medic lines. I want to hear brutal, personalized insults through the medic's mouth, with lots of medical humor. eg:, when he dominates a scout: "Ja, and I hate [I]kids[/I]", in reference to [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/a/a8/Scout_dominationmed05.wav]one of scout's lines[/url] when he dominates a Demo: "It vas only a matter a time before your liver gave out..." * Official models/VA'ing for Saxton Hale and Merasmus. * Model dump. Lots of cool models can be seen in TF2's Meet the X shorts. * toborse * get f ucked

[QUOTE=Captain_Crazy;37204297]* Model dump. Lots of cool models can be seen in TF2's Meet the X shorts.[/QUOTE] That happens in SFM updates, not TF2 updates. When they release Meet the team videos, they release the models too.
[QUOTE=TectoImprov;37204280]Why? Did I do something wrong?[/QUOTE] Image Macro. It's bannable is all.
[QUOTE=Rayss;37204303]That answers the question to the guy who earlier posted asking if you could sap the robots.[/QUOTE] I'll laugh if they add a TOBOR-specific sapper. So very gimmicky and situational. [I]...I'm not saying i want another gimmicky situational weapon though. Please no.[/I]
And they said the Über Update was, quote, unquote, the biggest, most ambitious update in the history of Team Fortress 2.
Technically the comic [I]is[/I] marking a new chapter in the TF2 story
if this is supposed to be the biggest tf2 update ever, i wonder how buggy it'll be

[QUOTE=Rayss;37204303]That answers the question to the guy who earlier posted asking if you could sap the robots.[/QUOTE] I am gonna love using the Red Tape Recorder on them

Based on the amount of new voice lines, do you guys think there will be a new voice command menu to go along with it?
I've never noticed it, but seeing how the comic describes being "hundreds of years" after the initial beginning of the conflict, Saxton himself has never aged since he's still visibly young and fit training in the comic.
[QUOTE=yellowoboe;37204321]Image Macro. It's bannable is all.[/QUOTE] Oh, alright then. Thanks.
Valve has SO much potential to make this ARG even GREATER than the Portal/Portal 2 ARG. Please Valve... show the world why you're my favorite developer.
[QUOTE=RPG;37204347]I am gonna love using the Red Tape Recorder on them[/QUOTE] "I'm [del]melting[/del] degrading!"
Hm, I sure hope all classes have new voice lines, it would just suck if it was just those 4 classes.
[QUOTE=TectoImprov;37204217]thanks-to-that-post-ill-never-walk-again.thumbnail.jpg[/QUOTE] You better snip that shit before the police find you smuggling in memes to the forums.
[QUOTE=FlyingAlien;37204357]I've never noticed it, but seeing how the comic describes being "hundreds of years" after the initial beginning of the conflict, Saxton himself has never aged since he's still visibly young and fit training in the comic.[/QUOTE] Barnabus is Saxton Hale's Grandfather. Also its only been one hundred years, not hundreds.
[QUOTE=RPG;37204347]I am gonna love using the Red Tape Recorder on them[/QUOTE] use the red tape recorder and watch the Robots unbuild themselves into a little wind up toy :v:
If we've got them in the manifest, what is the estimated date for them to be fully incorporated? And what is the absolute maximum time for them to put them in? Without and with factoring Valve Time
[QUOTE=ojcoolj;37204393]If we've got them in the manifest, what is the estimated date for them to be fully incorporated? And what is the absolute maximum time for them to put them in? Without and with factoring Valve Time[/QUOTE] The same time as the update [sp]aka this week[/sp].
[QUOTE=Gimme20dollaz;37204358]Interesting. So, there's probably going to be adding a monetary system to this?[/QUOTE] Oh god yes please. I really don't want to bring Call of Rooty-Tooty into this, but if you've ever played the wave-based game mode in Modern Warfare 3, I imagine it'll be similar to this, but 10x more rad (I just think that the core mechanics like fighting waves and using currency to buy certain upgrades and whatnot would be similar). You can also sort-of compare it to Killing Floor. I don't know, this is all speculation, but I know that the robots don't take on the role of mecha-classes for aesthetic purposes. Each robot class must have its perks, which leads me to question how the robots will be equipped. Will they use their guns or use melee? Will they have standard health? So many questions, I'm overflowing with rainbows!
[QUOTE=Kegan;37204391]use the red tape recorder and watch the Robots unbuild themselves into a little wind up toy :v:[/QUOTE] I want them to turn into random electronic appliances, such as toasters and tv's.
[QUOTE=ojcoolj;37204334]"You are also ugly" isn't enough for a brutal Medic insult?[/QUOTE] more along the lines of [url=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/f/f0/Medic_specialcompleted08.wav]this[/url] would be perfect for a scout domination line. callin' him a lady and a lady on her period at the same time is devastating
