fuc*ing god... end it in 4hour
While I love the Baby Face Blaster, I honestly think these new changes have made it quite overpowered.
Used to be that you'd run in and shoot enemies before they have time to properly react, then run away if things got too dicey. The speed boost was offset by more need to dodge (and lower damage); if you didn't dodge a rocket that bounces you or a Pyro's airblast, it impacted you a lot more, since you had to either sacrifice your speed for a double jump to dodge their next attack or fly in a predictable trajectory and hope they miss their next shots.
Now you can charge in and take fights just like with a scattergun due to higher damage making it easier to kill an enemy before they can properly react. Yeah you need to take cover more to reload the smaller clip, but you're supposed to do that anyway as a Scout even when you're not just reloading, and the speed boost that so much easier. The reduced speed on double jump means rockets and airblasts aren't nearly as life-ending, and the initial speed means you can still get to the frontlines faster than most classes without being as fragile since you couldn't dodge well with the old speed.
Point is, I'm gonna use the shit out of this before Valve nerfs it.

It was obvious. But I hope valves makes paints cheaper now.

The texture is a crystal clear 1024x1024 one, the cause of this yecchy blurriness is the use of a low mipmap when importing of the texture was done by Valve.
It's possible to bypass that.

is that a general issue with c_medigun?
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;42946722]is that a general issue with c_medigun?[/QUOTE]
Pretty much with every World Model. But it makes the game less resourceful when it comes to VRAM requirements, I guess.
I ask because c_medigun is horrible looking and I was just about to write up a small email to Valve about it, and if it's just a simple change like modifying mipmap settings, than that'd make it easy for them.
6 points of health per second passively in combat with Amputator? Now they just need to make the default medic melee to be the one to regen ally health on proximity.
[QUOTE=Nitro836;42946747]6 points of health per second passively in combat with Amputator? holy shit.[/QUOTE]
in combat? no.
everytime you get damaged, the regen is decreased by like 80% and gradually increases back

Well, Soldier's sleeves suffer from the same problem, so it would be reasonable to tell them to look into that while they're at it.

And yeah, that's what I did and it did the magic so it is almost effortless. It applies to the c_medigun, yes.

It's going to be a lot worse than that,trust me
Looking through the in-game catalogue and I found the motherload:

Seeing as how it says "Imbued with an ancient power" much like the Saxxy, I believe the Saxxy and Golden Wrench will no longer be the only ones to kill and leave a statue behind (assuming the other golden weapons do the same).
Talking about the med gun.
Am I the only one who sees the red skin on both teams?
So, I've heard a ton of whispers and rumors that the gold pan is usable by engie and spy
can anyone confirm?
Holy shit. I have just used Liberty Launcher with Gunboats, ya only lose from 10 to 15 HP in each rocket jump. I can pretty much tell that Hightower will be filled with these kinds of "trolldiers"

It is.
so does he new gold weapons turn people to gold? or since it is a style not effect it at all?
can i just say the new mvm maps are super fun
as is the soldier upgrade, which makes everything worthwhile again

an average gunboats jump without the new liberty is already 14 hp...

Apparently it's an item quality, not a style.

Upon my word...
THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL...and almost impossible to acquire. Even a golden machine gun, ha.
so, killstreaks are strange

does it announce this to the entire server? :v:
So this is pretty cool. There's a few leftover models and textures that they accidentally left in, one of them being the cubemap dome they used to make the gold/sheen effects:

This also includes the full scaled version of the textures.

Hey, does anyone know if you can use the shield upgrade with the Vaccinator on mvm? I can't switch resistances anymore
