TF2 update 02/12/2010 - Games

I read in a PCG interview that Natasha was one of the weapons Valve wasn't happy with along with the Sandman which is probably next of the list.

this update is pretty awesome, the only thing i'm disappointed in is the nappers texture was changed back.

[QUOTE=JGillo;26467139]Jerk. :( Nice hat though.[/QUOTE] I think it would be a good hat if it didn't have such a horrible texture. So it didn't really bother me that it isn't paintable, putting make-up on a pig won't make it any prettier.

I knew i shouldn't have traded away my paint

Did you guys get anything new when you started up tf2 beta? I got a Fez.

They added the Fez probably because they're going to test new Polycount pack bonuses for the spy to make it more balanced.

[QUOTE=Blueplastic;26463157]Hotrod still isn't [url="http://i56.tinypic.com/2cqiu5j.jpg"]paintable[/url]? :smith:[/QUOTE] holy FUCKING SHIT BLACK HOTROD WITH BLUE FLAMES

[QUOTE=GastricTank;26473228]They added the Fez probably because they're going to test new Polycount pack bonuses for the spy to make it more balanced.[/QUOTE] What :S? Why aren't they testing downsides to the other set bonuses who are actually highly noticeably imbalanced and unfair towards the people who do not have the hats to activate the bonus?

[QUOTE=GastricTank;26473228]They added the Fez probably because they're going to test new Polycount pack bonuses for the spy to make it more balanced.[/QUOTE] It's imbalanced? News to me. I've not noticed spies becoming any more universally effective, just more effective in specific areas in exchange for losing effectiveness in others. As in, better at pulling unprepared shit but not as good at performing specific targeted tasks. Like taking out sentry nests. Difficult when you can't just disguise without making it known there is a spy around.

I like how they even added the Beta Spy to the HUD to make it even more like a Beta! Wait...

oh, there's 2 threads. Awesome update. Mann Co. Cap and Alien Parasite are really badass now. It's really disappointing what they did to the Stovepipe and Raincatcher. They did the same thing to Hallmark in a previous patch. Hopefully it's not going to be too hard for me to get paint now. Though I am in no hurry to wear the demo shades, since they still clip with Hallmark.

[QUOTE=Recurracy;26468436]It could always have Maxine's stats from the Weaponiser.[/QUOTE] That's actually a very valid point that I appear to have overlooked.
