Major Update Speculation V31: Gamechanging Edition - Games

So they updated the Federal Casemaker to hide the Scout's headphones but not for the Universal Translator?

The Weight Room Warmer is finally for the Scout? I didn't want to afford it anyways.

[QUOTE=legoformer;50431621][T]http://i.imgur.com/yyd0Gww.png[/T] They apparently broke textures for most of Heavy's melees :v:[/QUOTE] wonderful, maybe this will give valve a reason to actually think about the class

How does one manage to do this? What could they have changed to accomplish this or is this just another case of TF2's shit tier code?

[QUOTE=Dr.Scrake;50431550]uhm, is the fear monger's style supposed to do this, or is it made to wear the hood with other pyro heads? [img]http://puu.sh/pbTKI/44b1a32ce8.png[/img] (because you cant use it with pyro heads)[/QUOTE] nobody report this

[QUOTE=Johnny Joe;50431705]I'm seriously fucking impressed. How does one manage to do this? What could they have changed to accomplish this or is this just another case of TF2's shit tier code?[/QUOTE] I'd bet money on that it's related to this: [quote]- Fixed an exploit related to the Heavy's gloves and blocking the payload cart [/quote] The gloves loves had no physics model before, they most likely screwed up something there. The real question is, how can you not notice that the Heavy's gloves have missing textures, when you're fixing an issue with the Heavy's gloves.. Edit: late

That's what happens when you are way too confident about your professionalism. Always do double check, especially if you already fucked up with that kind of stuff before

I miss when minor patches would add hints leading up to a major update.

Explosive doves, never forget

obviously they're hinting at the heavy's melees being removed and the pyro's buff against headshots in the next update.

i uh i didnt even update the casemaker, valve dun goofed with the importer but thanks random valve employee

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;50431945]I miss when minor patches would add hints leading up to a major update.[/QUOTE] I enjoyed that too but I don't think they have any major lore related updates in the works, which IIRC are the only ones where they did all the hinting. It's all mostly just been gameplay and operations lately.

[QUOTE=chandlerj333;50431990]obviously they're hinting at the heavy's melees being removed and the pyro's buff against headshots in the next update.[/QUOTE] The missing textures obviously presage a Heavy nerf.

In-case you guys don't know already here's what was changed about the Toowoomba Tunic: Basically unchanged on sniper, except for the inclusion of the new "Peasant" style which removes the glove extension: [t]http://puu.sh/pbZcK.jpg[/t][t]http://puu.sh/pbZeR.jpg[/t] But the main reason for the update to the item was to add Demoman compatibility, The "Peasant" style removes the sheathe on Demoman's version: [t]http://puu.sh/pbZvZ.jpg[/t][t]http://puu.sh/pbZul.jpg[/t] [b]MAGIC MISSLE![/b] [t]http://puu.sh/pbYkU.jpg[/t]

Do they not boot up a single game of TF2 before they ship an update just to make sure everything's copacetic?

Okay it's been 7 months since Halloween, when the hell are they going to remove the soul-collecting business whenever you kill an enemy?

[QUOTE=TwoYearLurker;50431843] how much do you want to bet the textures are broken because the models are looking for materials/models/[B]workshop/[/B]weapons/whatever.vmt now[/QUOTE] i decompiled the holiday punch and this is its material path: [code] $CDMaterials "models\workshop\weapons\c_models\c_xms_gloves\" [/code]

The new Toowoomba Tunic is [I]so good[/I]. Thankfully, I was able to get one before the inevitable price hike. It's just what my Demoman needed, although I'm not sure what to use as my third cosmetic. Good work on it!

[QUOTE=kibbleknight;50432216]Re-posting from the bottom of the last page in-case it gets missed:[/QUOTE] why is the front flap of sniper's tunic the back flap of demo's tunic? look at the shape and normal mapping

when is valve going to fix the painting on the spin chilling skull like, yeah not always on time, but i remember them saying they were going to fix it almost 5 years ago

I like this item, but couldn't really use it since it clipped a bit, but it should work fine now.

how much does the demo's flap clips in anything thats not the ref pose?

So the Co-Pilot went from being one class to multi-class to all-class? I can't imagine it looking good on any other classes it wasn't already on than the Medic
