Major Update Speculation Thread v12: Layoffs Edition - Games

Wow, that topic change.

[QUOTE]The Brütal Bouffant - This brutally heavy all-class sideburns and mullet combo[/QUOTE] How will this item even look like on the Spy? Hell, how would this item even look like on the Pyro?!

[QUOTE=TentuZero;39578676]For those of you getting the game. Be warned the game does a 360 halfway through the game.[/QUOTE] Doesn't it turn into an [sp]RTS?[/sp]

[QUOTE=TentuZero;39578676]For those of you getting the game. Be warned the game does a 360 halfway through the game.[/QUOTE] In what way?

Pink as hell mullet and sideburns on spy. Very metal.

Wait, have the layoffs actually been confirmed? I mean, there are names gone from the People page, but is it confirmed that people are actually being fired en masse? Call me cynical, but I tend to assume that anything a gaming journalism site publishes is either completely made up, ridiculously blown out of proportion, or rumor published as though it were fact. My assumption isn't without precedent, either--remember last year, when some guy from tumblr sent some [I]completely made up[/I] information about the new XBOX to various news sites, then explained on his blog how easy it was for him to make them believe the information? Or did I just miss someone from VALVe coming out and confirming it?

[QUOTE=TentuZero;39578676]For those of you getting the game. Be warned the game does a 360 halfway through the game.[/QUOTE] Spins and comes back to the same position?

[QUOTE=Erfly;39578727]In what way?[/QUOTE] [sp]First half is hack and slash. Then suddenly turns into a tower defense/rts. [/sp]

[QUOTE=TentuZero;39578676]For those of you getting the game. Be warned the game does a 360 halfway through the game.[/QUOTE] It makes a slight stop to turn and then continues on the direction it was in?

[QUOTE=TheRealFierce;39578703]How will this item even look like on the Spy? Hell, how would this item even look like on the Pyro?![/QUOTE] The power of glued hair, my friend.

you folks need to learn geometry

[QUOTE=TentuZero;39578676]For those of you getting the game. Be warned the game does a 360 halfway through the game.[/QUOTE] So it turns into a Microsoft Console?

preorder brutal legends or not? agree=yes disagree=no or just wait for the new tf2 update to come out to see what the promos are before i preorder or if there anynew keys like nice and naughy keys or the pyromania keys.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;39578749]you folks need to learn geometry[/QUOTE] Actually its a play on words. The game is what most games are on the 360. Not what you really payed for.

Crate 50 will be Valentine's crate, of course

a 360 is a full circle, you'd end up going the same direction you were when you started the spin. A 180 is when you turn around and go the opposite way.

Artwise and storywise Brutal Legend is awesome. Gameplaywise not.

A 180 is when you turn around and go the opposite way.[/QUOTE] It would make most sense to be a 90 degree turn to go in a completely different direction the MOST possible different direction (in 2 dimensions)

portal box will open on valentine and will contain the aperture cube with a hearth

No 3 degree>360 degree

[QUOTE=Spot of Tea;39578770]Crate 50 will be Valentine's crate, of course[/QUOTE] if that happens actually i might just not preorder brutal legends just so i can unbox a fk ton of those if they are not rare :v

[QUOTE=Kapellmeister;39578813][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/aMRO04A.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE] this is the GIF that made me realize a 360 was actually a circle, when I saw it all those years ago (when I was like in high school)

snip..........

one of the earliest design concepts of modern Heavy we see in TF2 had a mullet.

[QUOTE=Rufia;39578483]I'm gonna' be honest, Valve's been very odd as of late. I mean they've been hinting at and participating in a number of weird projects. From the Steambox to the rumoured collaboration with the film director (which still makes no sense to me because he's a movie director, why go to him for game creation?). [/QUOTE] Don't forget Valve's also been making nice with Titmouse, an animation studio, and investing in VR work. An animation studio, virtual reality, and a film director... [I]What's he building in there?[/I]
