TF2 General Chat and Speculation Station: Whiteboard Blues - Games

Maybe I'm alone on this but at this point I actually want them to release it as late as possible just to see the absolute worst they can take this.

[QUOTE=Punchy;52742696]Maybe I'm alone on this but at this point I actually want them to release it as late as possible just to see the absolute worst they can take this.[/QUOTE] I think the Half Life franchise answered that for us.

This month marks the 5-year anniversary that I started 3D modeling. Half a decade + more than 60 TF2 workshop submissions later... nothing. :toxx: If by the time the pyro update comes out and I still have nothing accepted in-game, it is time for me to move on. No escape clause.

[QUOTE=Punchy;52742696]Maybe I'm alone on this but at this point I actually want them to release it as late as possible just to see the absolute worst they can take this.[/QUOTE] I want to see how long people can cling to hope as well.

The lack of a major TF2 update is tearing our family apart... :frown: On topic, I do wonder how safe it is to continue placing my bets on the 10th.

It's really hard to blame anyone for bailing out at this point in life. Makes me really sad but what can you do with a game barely updated and with zero communication whatsoever.

I think It's pretty obvious that the update is getting released this month, ya'll should stop whining about it. I know It's been long, but you will get a reason to complain If the update is gonna be total garbage.

There sure are a lot of frequent members putting their accounts on the line... I don't post terribly much, but I just want to say, for those of you that really are leaving - good luck out there. Its been fun <3

Noooooooooooo...

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;52742988]It can't be [I]complete[/I] garbage, Scout's unlocks are getting nerfed after all.[/QUOTE] and the dead ringer. We could have an entire major update dedicated to the dead ringer nerf, and people would call it a huge success.

I'm in complete disbelief that [U]Scream Fortress 2017[/U] is going to be the first "major" update of the year... On the bright side, I think we will at-least get the "What we're up to" blog post by the 10th.

Hello update?

Well, if you think waiting on this update has been agonizing, just wait untill we hit 2018 and it starts again. Highly unlikely that we get anyhing again by this time of the year unless some winds at Valve are going to change and put more people towards actual game development, instead of the VR hype stuff and harware.

Also, if Valve give Heavy his other testicle back. You know, the one they callously tore off with the Love & War update.

Five keys if it's a set of new limited hats like 2014 late Summer.

I also doubt SF will be much of anything new, unless it's packaged in with the Pyro update.

They could release an update that was nothing but sandman, DR, and CaC nerfs and a valve employee came to my house and spit in my face and eat all my spam and I'd still call it the best update ever.

Seeing anything from the team would be enough for me

If they haven't I hope they do, It would suck if your map got stalled because of it.

Jill was talking about mumble and the voice chat system, and then revealed that servers would be able to pick the bitrate/quality of the voice chat system in TF2. I expect that this means Competitive would have a higher bitrate, and Casual would have a lower bitrate. If they're paying attention to even the smallest things like voice chat quality, I fully expect this update to be good. They must be working hard to make sure that the update is perfect, going to the lengths of seeing what the community does and implementing it. This would explain the wait, maybe.

[QUOTE=Der dasMann;52743433]Seeing anything from the team would be enough for me[/QUOTE] At this point I just wanna know if there is a TF2 team at all (The baby alone does not count as a team)

[QUOTE=Danzflor;52743590]At this point I just wanna know if there is a TF2 team at all (The baby alone does not count as a team)[/QUOTE] They probably forgot to take care of the Potted Plant and he ended up wilting.
