If it's a proper war I'd suspect you'll be allowed to pledge your allegiance to a class and then any points you score across the board will go towards their total.
Day 2 is a pun. Heavy is holding meat while pyro is holding matches ('meat' your 'match')
[QUOTE=Danzflor;50657997]I think it's a good time for bets: How long before the "pro" players start complaining and asking for the "real" competitive mode? A.K.A. class restrictions and weapon bans :v:[/QUOTE]
I may be pessimistic but the comp community could very well be not impressed with the weapon balances in this update. With no banning system or class limits, this probably means real comp TF2 will remain outside of the regular game.
[QUOTE=pipantarctic;50657999]So it is a war.
I guess we will have some new lore then.[/QUOTE]
Pyro is Heavy's sister all along
My biggest worry is how the "Casual mode" change community Servers. I thought of this Update as a revival, not as the nail to the coffin.

I'm hoping it's about helping the classes more than playing them. I sense playing alot of Medic in this War. And I'm all for it.
The winner of the war will have their identity revealed.
We can finally know exactly [I]what[/I] the Heavy is.
I would prefer spy vs engie. this is one class that nobody likes to play as vs one class that nobody likes to play against
what if there's a new campaign that's a callback to the scrapped spy vs. engie war idea, where you complete contracts to earn points for your chosen side
i mean, i'm not sure how well that would work, since everyone gets contracts (and earns points) at the same rate, meaning it would just be a popularity contest with the exact same numbers getting added to the pool every half week, but it would still be fun i suppose
maybe if both in-game points AND big bonuses from contracts added to your team's score, that could be alright
[QUOTE=DahlCeo;50658005]50 buck this is the lore "New Mexico becomes a offical part of Mexico and if Trump wins they cant enter america soldier furious at this makes them run for president and the heavy and pyro get two different ideas on how to run america and compete."[/QUOTE]It still isn't funny. Can you please stop reposting this?
Seems like I was correct on guessing July 5th/July 7th
Less politics more crushing baby men. (Alright but in all honestly I'm excited for some Heavy love)

Revolver for engi and screwdriver for spy melee? Please?
rate dumb if you think heavy's getting a new lunchbox
rate optimistic if you think heavy's getting a new shotgun
You guys remember that conspiracy bulletin board that was randomly introduced a long while back? Heavy and Pyro were grouped next to each other on it.

[QUOTE=trkac;50657808]How are those looking thus far?[/QUOTE]
The Football bingo still has some chances left. Most of the fields rely heavily on tomorrow's balance changes though, but it might still get a Bingo.
The Summer Bingo has most of the slots decided as of right now, but there's no Bingo yet.
It's very likely to get one though, it all depends on whether we get a comic, new weapons, new contracts, and whether Cactus Canyon and Asteroid will be released or not.
Suicide bingo only has 3 possibilities for a Bingo left, 2 of them heavily (pun not intended) depending on whether Heavy's balance changes will turn out to be more of a buff than a nerf.
You guys may still live through this update. Pray that they fixed the Quantum Crouch or that all competitive gamemodes have at least 4 maps.

And they're both connected to "DON'T OPEN UNTIL FUTURE"
ummm
EDIT: the sniper vs. spy and soldier vs. demo show them on opposite teams against each other, the pyro and heavy in this are on the same team just like in the leak
I think we've found something boys

[URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb9lPK8NjC4#t=19s"]How about something more interesting for Spy, like Piano String wire like he was going to get at one point when TF2 went by "Brotherhood in arms"?[/URL]
[QUOTE=Hell-met;50657992]there is absolutely no way players can affect it through gameplay kill counters. Valve will never want servers to be filled with heavy/pyro spam.[/QUOTE]
Thats why there were a metric fuckton of servers with maps created [I]spesifically[/I] for Soldier vs Demo back in the day.
hold the fuck up
didn't the medic get his update already, like his new one (uber update)
what if pyro and heavy are next for their 2nd round of new weapons?
(Not counting the Pyromania weapons for pyro, which are reskins.)
so then am i wrong to assume that the next big boy update will include new weps for scout?
I'll probably be wrong (day 2 hasn't been fully revealed) but it seems like matchmaking is staying the same.
This is a little disappointing since the beta wasn't very good. If they had something like placement matches that would be good for ranking.
Everybody ranging from b4nny to a 13 hour gibus spy will be in the same rank.
They did intend competitive to be for those noscoping top fragging trick stabbing team carrying veterans though.

I thought the only class-based update we got after the last round was Smissmas 2014 (Demoman)

Sniper, Spy, Soldier and Demo are connected to eachother, and were the previous big conflicts with Spy VS Sniper and the first WAR update.
Connected to both Heavy and Pyro, who are bunched together. [B]Sneaky bastards.[/B]

2 out of 3 weapons? not really. the pyromania update did come out though
So Day 2 + update is coming this night, right?

Here's footage of the new map:

noo but i'm saying like, what if valve is doing the cycle of like, new class weapons again?
originally the updates were:
[B]Medic -> Pyro -> Heavy -> Scout -> Sniper/Spy -> Demo/Solly -> Engie[/B]
but now (so far) what i can understand is:
[B]Medic (Uber Update) -> Pyro/Heavy War (?) -> Scout -> Spy/Engie (?) -> Sniper -> Demo -> Soldier[/B]
overly optimistic, but they COULD be just redoing the whole order again
