Wow, finally got into a game. Our whole team went scout and it was over in 5 minutes. Woo, matchmaking.
Hoo boy, 926 new voice lines. Sadly, not a single medic one.

Some of these are gold. Good luck sittin' through it though.

"These fellas are gonna be [I]ohm[/I]-less if they don't put up more of a resistance! That's an engineering joke."
"You know what this team could use? Five more Snipers."
Sniper's lines are gold
It's good to know that the same people who picked the taunts used a fucking dart board to pick what weapons would be re-balanced.
Fucking crit-a-cola is still OP, Danger shield wasn't even fucking touched, Heavy basically had his least used miniguns nerfed, Engineer got a buff out of fucking nowhere and so did medic and meanwhile fucking core heavy and pyro remain the same as before despite the fact this was supposed to be THEIR update.
What the fuck happened?

"they call me mule boy cause all i do is carry"
engineer still tells dad jokes in 2016, amazing
"hey guys what do we do if heavy wins"
"we'll nerf him of course"
not to mention people can just make bot accounts and rig the whole thing

They got lazy so they made the War thing. The class that wins gets the fixes first.
I have never been more disappointed in an update before this one, even eotl fiasco can't come close to mediocrity of MyM.

Only allow premium accounts to vote and problem solved.

WHY THE FUCK. You're going to push your fucking competitive mode in our faces yet you fail to make all the classes viable and balanced and refuse to do so until some gimmicky fucking event is done?! And even then only one fucking class will actually be buffed? What the fuck valve holy shit.
I'm going back to CS fuck this shit
"Six healthy backs, just waiting to be stabbed... *sniff sniff* ahh... there's that new back smell."
Did they just fucking call out MUS
no medic voice lines?
what if heavy was given a damage taken threshold? maybe he couldnt take more than, say, 120 damage from one attack regardless of critical status? then he could actually tank a bit more effectively.
or just give him immunity to one hit kills
never ever listen to competitive players ever again.
they always ruined this game all the time, shittalking people who play pubs and thinking they are great for playing on a game that has no future in 'esports'
game was honestly better before this. Hope valve changes my mind with re-balances and fixes, but considering all the amount of hype both b4nny and devs were doing, I literally hope for nothing at this point
and now you guys can see why b4nny is fucking biased
im honestly worried valve mightve ruined TF2 for me but i cant decide until i actually get to play a fucking game
[QUOTE=TheDrunkenOne;50672641]no medic voice lines?[/QUOTE]
One pyro voice line too

I'm going back to CS fuck this shit[/QUOTE]It's not for mere "fixes", it's for a full on class update, like the old times. You know, new weapons. Like what the entire comic they released was about.
"you fight the boss, you take the loss, hoss"
sounds like something right out of Xavier: Renegade Angel
I just realised, there are no new cosmetics or skins or cases or anything either
The update just feels so... empty
[B]Time to evaluate the bingos boys:
[/B]
First off we have the obscure and almost forgotten [B]Football Bingo[/B].
[T]http://i.imgur.com/4Olq31z.jpg[/T]
Funnily enough, not many spaces were filled, but we did almost have two complete lines.
But thanks to Valve, we received another Heavy nerf and had a useless Sun on a Stick update, strategically avoiding our only two possibilities.
Apart from that, there is nothing else to say.
[B]
All in all the most inaccurate out of the three.
[/B]
Next up: [B]Summer Bingo 2016[/B]
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/F6cdTy1.png[/IMG]
None of the weapons that were strongly buffed were truly useless before. Eureka effect might be debatable, but it already had a unique effect not found on any other weapon.
The Bison is what fits the "Good weapon made useless" slot the most, although it's not entirely useless of course. It just got a nerf for no reason in particular.
Useless weapon gets updated that's still useless: The Sun-on-a-Stick of course, no contest.
The community servers technically didn't get any mention or support, but due to the removal of quickplay and the absolute clusterfuck of a casual mode, they actually benefit from additional players now.
Finally, the most prevalent reaction was outrage at the quickplay change, so I wouldn't really call the update to be widely viewed as a good one.
[B]So unless you think that a weapon has gone from bad to great this update, there's no Bingo here either.[/B]
Finally: [B]The Suicide Bingo[/B]
Isn't it sad that once again, the pessimist's view turns out to be the most realistic?
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/hfUYrsM.png[/IMG]
There were no community made cosmetics this year, which makes the selection of terrible cosmetics quite small. The Disgaea promos look kind of out-of-place in TF2 but I've seen lots of people who like them.
Quantum crouch is still going strong of course, and we even get a new exploit in the form of infinite metal for the Engineer when destroying teleporters.
I've also seen some disgust at the new designs for the Sticky- and the Rocketjumper, but since those are technically not skins, they don't really count as such.
There's no information yet on what maps actually are in competitive mode right now, but it's not like it really matters much.
Finally, we've gotten ourselves yet another awful all-class conversion in the form of the Dapper Topper.
[B]So if you think the Disgaea promos look awful, then you've won yourself a nice double bingo.[/B]
[B]To summarize:[/B] A quite underwhelming update no matter from what perspective. Let's hope the Heavy/Pyro updates will have more to offer.
[sp] Don't get your hopes up [/sp]
i told you guys
"this update's gonna be bad"
you ignored me and rode the overhyped train
now you're all saying
"aaaa dis update sucks"
i've learnt from past major updates to never get hyped for anything because in the end it's usually full of "what the fuck were they thinking" decisions and disappointment
as for that pass_brickyard tv thing
if it really does require a skull island topper that has a level 200 merasmus defeated then oh boy i hope you're ready
and those trigger_multiple all start out disabled so you actually have to score in the secret goal first
and no
i don't know how to turn on the tv
because it's overdrill 2.0
"Finally 6's is worth playing, because you can play as me" - Spy
Spy's lines are so good.
EDIT: "I like my teams how I like my romances, in groups of six"

No love for Medic? Weird, his actor had been always eager to do more lines.
Man, I haven't felt this let down since the Payday 2 crimefest 2015 event...
Any further info on the pass_brickworks seacret? I was dicking around on a server before with a few people but we couldn't work it out.
The MUS cycle begins anew: Update is out, and depression sets in.
Allright guys, [B]VOTING TIME[/B]. What do you think about new update?
[B]Agree[/B] if you like the new update
[B]Disagree[/B] if you're dissapointed
[B]Dumb[/B] if you hate it
[B]Useful[/B] it was overhyped
I was kind of hoping they'd do something slightly more significant for both the Heavy and the Pyro, to promote the war and all, but all that's happened was that I can't give a shit about the competition not even a day after its release.
Hell, because of the balance changelog, I don't even know if I want to trust them with doing anything significant with either class, especially the Pyro. At this point I'd prefer it if the update was done like Sniper vs. Spy instead.
Also, they didn't even bother changing the in-game stats on the descriptions it seems.
[T]http://i.imgur.com/DN3r1Os.png[/T]
Did they just ruin QF? That was my favourite medigun, now it's [relatively] worse than it was in the time no one used it :goodjob:
[QUOTE=The Civ;50668625]Hope B4nny gets shit on so hard after this that he never has a say in balancing again.
No respect for him after these Heavy nerfs.[/QUOTE]
Anyone had any respect for him left after that laughable Pyro video he did that directly contradicted what he was saying and also led to uber Phlog scandal? :v:
Did anyone know for how long voting will be up? My shift ends in 8 hours and fuck me if I don't get to vote for Heavy.
