the point is to have good game play, not substituting gameplay with RPG elements.

It still plays fairly well. And, as sidegrades, people without the weapons are at no direct disadvantage, meaning that it all comes down to skill.

And the point is to be fun. It's a game. Finding items instead of having them awarded from the start is fun.
[QUOTE=NeoDement;27376622]How are you "done" with it, if you're not happy with it?[/QUOTE]
I meant, I did one, but I don't like it, I put it here to see reactions.

Its an interesting topic, I think that works well when its like a single player or a co-op campaign, but plain old multiplayer, you feel left out or you feel like you could do so much better with the weapon that you couldn't have. We could look at things like Guild Wars, which gives you the choice when making a character to make a pvp character and you already start off with the best gear and max level right off the back or do a pve character that does the story and your do the normal thing of leveling up and getting random gear. In the game, it has thrived of it PvP, and I'd say it's the main reason why its still alive now.

Whatever. If the 'everyone gets everything' update comes out, I'm getting a refund.
Guys, I have modelers block.

snip sorry renovating my dropbox folder
The people who made the flamethrower concept art are going to actually model that so I have no ideas on what to model. Can you guys help me?

Model a flail for Medieval Pack.
[QUOTE=Pie_Tony;27373851]I can tell you that the next theme won't be electric, though don't go hissy on me and neo We're planning something big for it (meaning it will happen, don't worry)
So to keep you lot tied over until then, we'll do another event which you lot decide. (note above post)
and too top it all off it'll start tomorrow or your money back!
[sp]Tomorrow, valve time[/sp][/QUOTE]
Alright, that sounds reasonable. The only thing that annoys me is that I can't think of anything really cool for medieval or DIY. Hopefully I'll have some inspiration soon.
Any hints on the "big event" (or is it just a souped up eletric theme?)

shame you can't get those on steam
e: i would be okay with tournament mode unlocking all the weapons for use, that way the competitive leagues wouldn't have to ban new items for acquisition time before allowing them.

Is that why your defending the random drop system :P
I'm not too briefed on the topic but if I recall, when you bought the game there was a part in the contract that said that stuff in the game can change, so if you bought the game expecting tf2 and suddenly it turned into Duck hunter time after a few updates, they have the right to keep your cash, I dont know if there is the same policy for the Mann Store.
Did a new sound.

Which one do you guys prefer?
Eeshton, what was the inspiration for the gun? draw some elements off of that
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;27376663]the point is to have good game play, not substituting gameplay with RPG elements.[/QUOTE]
yeah I realize this and agree, but my point is that the items are an important part of it too... for example when I started playing, I wound up on those 24/7 2fort servers - not too good gameplay - but the items presented the motivation to give tf2 a second chance and find some better group to play with.

Okay, I'll try to improve the first one then.

You know, I'm actually doing "mods" when I try to make matching sounds for the grenade launcher, but yet I feel like I'm spamming senseless shit in this thread. :saddowns:

Don't feel bad, your stuff is good and useful. Besides, at least you're making a substantial effort.

The concept of an expression is above your head, isn't it? Anyway, tournament mode would be a good idea, because that's optional. But just forcing it on everyone in the entire game would be REALLY stupid.
[QUOTE=Nidhogg;27363502]Robot Joe (aka Naburus) was the original concept designer for The Wrath of Wan Hu. We asked him to help us design the revised version and this is what he came up with.
[img_thumb]http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/2750/wanhuside.jpg[/img_thumb]
It's still pretty much a rough concept sketch, so it's not completely final. We'll probably start modeling it tomorrow, though.

The fuel tank really clashes. Maybe have a tank shaped like a Japanese paper lantern?
Someone make a flamethrower replacement using the pyro's ability to shoot flame out of his palm. IT WILL AMUSE ME.
A Big UV to match a Big Gun.
Also, obligatory sparkwire likes it big.
I'd like someone to make a whip for the snoipah.
It's something that actually fits him, rather than another sword.
There was someone who was working on a whip before, but they either gave up or disappeared.
Also, my thoughts on the pack.
We are going to have lots of swords. So, so many swords.
Keep the swords for Meleeman people. Valve doesn't seem to mind them.
I'm not making a sword, ha ha!
Nobody has made a morningstar yet :colbert:

unique space for each barrel? I'm sure you can save space there.
Good luck texturing anyway

Someone else wanna do it? I'm about to move, like tommorow.
[QUOTE=Bittersweet;27378622]Nobody has made a morningstar yet :colbert:[/QUOTE]
isn't a morning star just a spiky bit on a stick?
I remember one was out for soldier even before the war update, annoyed me to hell cos it flipped up like some form of trench mace.

That's what a flail is.
Also, random concept art for a weapon I'll be doing later:
