Tuesday's Update - DON'T MAKE ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT IT. - Games

The blackboard was right?

OMG, it's so awesome! You silly demomen can shove your medieval shit up your asses!

80% faster? Holy shit.

[QUOTE=Topher;18980384]I think this weapon will kill off half of the soldier fan base who only like the soldier because of the blast radius.[/QUOTE] Why? They can still use the old one...

[QUOTE=aydin690;18980431]OMG, it's so awesome! You silly demomen can shove your medieval shit up your asses![/QUOTE] Seriously? I'm a bit annoyed as a soldier.

The comic was brilliant Also, this is great for anyone playing scout.

Oh yeah, also, the chalkboard with the rocket launcher on it was the real hint.

This update seems a bit to small since there is only 2 days left and they haven't release any surprises and any new maps. Watching this page for changes : [url]http://www.teamfortress.com/war/saxtonhale/poopyjoe.htm[/url].

I have shitty aim, but I'll still use it because it looks cool.

Noooo Oh my god now the soldiers must really win the 7th weapon as this new weapon is kind of dumb to me. and fuck the demomans are catching up we lose i bet Edit: KEY WORDS dumb to MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[QUOTE=NeoDement;18980457]Seriously? I'm a bit annoyed as a soldier.[/QUOTE] Why? well, im accurate with the rocektlauncehr and pretty good at airshots. So this thing with %80 travel speed is just too awesome!

:C sad faec for the lack of a second weapon as promised by valve in the update page. It is darken, but not shown extra sad faec's for everyone.

[QUOTE=NeoDement;18980457]Seriously? I'm a bit annoyed as a soldier.[/QUOTE] So far, Sniper has been the only one who got a crazy revamp of his primary weapon. Medic, Pyro, Heavy, Scout, and Spy have all had basically their normal primary with some pros and cons slapped on top. I expect the replacement for Demo's grenade launcher to be very similar and not change much.

I'm on the Demo side. But fuck that weapon looks badass.

Soldier needs to catch back up.

Soldiers, we need to push! Let's get that kill count up again!

[QUOTE=Epidemick;18980458]The comic was brilliant Also, this is great for anyone playing scout.[/QUOTE] ...and terrible for anyone who plays as Engineer (me).

i just had a deja vu about seeing that new rocket launcher design....

with the exact right lighting and shadows

Meh, my whole soldier career has revolved around juggling. But I guess I'll give it a try.

YES! The demoman is catching up! Only loosing by 100k! I bet by thursday we will have a 50k lead. WE BETTER!

The real question is, will the rocket jumping be the same?

The new RL is going to be great for taking out slow targets, such as Heavy and other Sollys, but its gonna make eliminating fast classes like the Scout much harder. Basically, its gonna be ass on defense, but on offense it'll do major damage.

[QUOTE=Takeout;18980454]Why? They can still use the old one...[/QUOTE] True, but on a subconscious level, I think they'll feel totally gyped that they didn't get a radically different weapon. I know, 80% faster is pretty radical. I mean like Bonk! replacing the pistol or a sword replacing the nade launcher radical.

[QUOTE=fenwick;18980602]...and terrible for anyone who plays as Engineer (me).[/QUOTE] This, a lvl3 sentry with me wacking at it is almost destroyed by 4 rockets from the regular rocket launcher, now we have this one that does more damage. It's true then, whoever wins, engineer loses.

There's a lot of talk about soup.

[QUOTE=Epidemick;18980458] Also, this is great for anyone playing scout.[/QUOTE] I'm not sure I get that. I mean, it'll be easier to dodge the splash damage, but at the same time it'll probably be an instant kill if it hits. That makes a big difference in how you need to approach the Soldier, especially because there's a good chance he can whip around and oneshot you if you try to sneak up on him.

And thats, my friends, why I love Valve.

When will this update be put into effect? I don't really play TF2 so I'm not sure how they've done it before.
