[QUOTE=ikes;51580838]man this update has completely demotivated me to do any new items not because i got nothing in but because I'm almost certain the next update I get anything in will be a massive dissapointment of an update that will only serve to hammer another nail in TF2's coffin and I don't want to be part of that[/QUOTE] Well fucking tough, nerd, you're in it for life.
[QUOTE=A_Guardian;51581201]Well fucking tough, nerd, you're in it for life.[/QUOTE] So that means I can save myself now? /s

Anyways, as seen as the next big update might be the jungle one, gotta present you something Ludumberg and I are making as a preview tho. [IMG]http://image.prntscr.com/image/23e846ad34af4b5a881632acd6c294a4.png[/IMG] The Roads to El Tocado v2, a remake of the old Roads to El Tocado. Still needs its textures and normals and is almost finished.

[QUOTE=demilicious~!;51581691]Damn, ikes. You suddenly stopped having fun making items in the last 24 hours. Did anything happen?[/QUOTE] theyre fun to make, not so fun when you're financially supporting a group of people who want as little to do with the thing you love as possible, people who would rather run it into the ground and provide no quantifiable support for it, even though that should [I]literally be their job[/I] this update was a worthless dumpster fire, an absolute fucking joke. and so was the last, and the one before that.

nah because the enjoyment I find in making items outweighs my disdain for valve's absolutely reprehensible practices
[QUOTE=Serge Ivanov;51577720]#2 always seems to be the biggest problem with new workshoppers that I've seen considering I've rated on over 7000 items in the workshop. People always make something that's too originial and just ends up being nonsensical or just plain obscure.[/QUOTE] wish you were there every time an "idea guy" tries to talk me into making something.

[QUOTE=ikes;51584473]nah because the enjoyment I find in making items outweighs my disdain for valve's absolutely reprehensible practices[/QUOTE] man did they kill ur dog or something? a few shitty updates or whatever dont exactly make me think i should start boycotting valve. maybe i'm naive but personally i think when you step outside of the echo chamber that is major update speculation you'll realize that most people's opinion on the game isn't exactly that dramatic, i know mine isn't at least. i still enjoy playing tf2 even if this year's been kinda dead, i just don't really take the game that seriously away from items, it's just a video game at the end of the day.

I don't like being lied to, and it's really frustrating to be led on for almost a whole year expecting something great and getting dogshit dumped on us every time without even a mere apology for being misled
they never say those things were coming before 2017 tho? in the "what we're up to" post they just said "this year we're working on" all the speculation that the update was gonna launch at the end of the year was just speculation, should it have launched at the end of the year? probably. but valve didn't exactly promise anything as far as im aware, correct me if im wrong. i'd rather they work on the update until completion and take a while than release something half-assed like meet your match

All they said that "this year we're working on etc". which is factually correct. They worked on it this year.
[QUOTE=ikes;51584473]nah because the enjoyment I find in making items outweighs my disdain for valve's absolutely reprehensible practices[/QUOTE] yeah we know valve's been weird on item choosing and updates on this year, I even got an item in this last update, but what matters is: this isn't the right thread to talk about this. now chill
[QUOTE=ikes;51584473]nah because the enjoyment I find in making items outweighs my disdain for valve's absolutely reprehensible practices[/QUOTE] go make something with a better fun ratio then. life follows. bickering because we're no longer in 2010 will not make things go back in time.
Alright! What's the recommend revenue percentage for uv unwrapping?
what percentage of what? you probably want to unwrap 100% of your model.
[QUOTE=heinous;51587714]what percentage of what? you probably want to unwrap 100% of your model.[/QUOTE] I think he means revenue-wise
[QUOTE=Sims_doc;51587610]Alright! What's the recommend percentage for uv unwrapping?[/QUOTE] No recommendations, I think you'd rather just talk among yourselves and come to your own agreements.
Working on this medic-pirate thing. I feel like the colours are way too dark though, how can I improve this? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iCkyTGG.jpg[/IMG]
