Major Update Speculation V31: Gamechanging Edition - Games

[QUOTE=G=4//\/\3!2;50037392]I think the Egg Head's Overhauls and The Level 3 Chin would make sense on Heavy, Practically everyone on the team calls him fat.[/QUOTE] Please no. Fat engie needs to remain on engie.

[QUOTE=BanthaFodder;50037067]Man, Asteroid is one of my favorite maps. Like, I just love how it ends up being a massively long thing where people actually have to work together to eek out a win, it feels super rewarding. Hopefully when Matchmaking is out of Beta, there'll be an option to choose game modes and whatnot, because competitive Asteroid would be a hell of a time.[/QUOTE] asteroid was so fun. It was so intense to make a long risky run into their base and kill robots. it was actually good ctf

My only real issue with asteroid is the fact you need 6+ engineers to actually defend the base effectively. And that in itself isn't fun.

[QUOTE=Oizen;50038064]My only real issue with asteroid is the fact you need 6+ engineers to actually defend the base effectively. And that in itself isn't fun.[/QUOTE] It only gets to that point if your team has absolutely zero combat presence and the other team is rolling past you without so much as being breathed on. All you need to do to have an effective defense is to hold the area near the currently-active set of robots. 1 well-placed sentry is all you really need to cut off the popular routes with someone keeping an eye on the side route that each stage of robots has. Beyond that, the only threat that the enemies can pose is if they go for your cores, which they have to sit stationary for quite a long time before they can actually take a decent haul away from you.

[QUOTE=_Dalek;50037757]Please no. Fat engie needs to remain on engie.[/QUOTE] I don't know I think it would work on heavy and a few other classes, but it's really up to the original creator.

tbh i'd like to see graylien all-class

the only necessary item update is giving the surgeon's stahlhelm proper team colours - for some reason its white which doesnt go well with medic's coat colours and it pisses me off

Does anybody know if the All-Father's description still says "Show the world it's possible to be bearded AND stupid with this [B]Heavy- and Soldier-[/B]specific face-nest"?

[QUOTE=Trilby Harlow;50037309]probably not, by the end of it it had no real theme or reason to it and basically any submission that wasn't technically awful would be thrown into the collection. I don't really know what they were trying to go for[/QUOTE] If Valve does accept the Iron Gauntlet as an official update they don't have to accept every item. They didn't accept every item for Invasion.

The thing about invasion was that valve was trying to get back into a rhythm of releasing updates, and there was going to be so much in that was meant invasion, but the fact that valve isn't the best at communication is probably what took it so long to be released, that's what i think anyway, can anyone that was on the invasion team agree with this? Edit: So if Iron Gauntlet is going to be a thing, valve probably learned form eotl an invasion and will try to have better communication with the team [sp]hopefully[/sp]

I don't get why Cactus Canyon and Assteroid are still not released. Cactus is a fun map and so is Assteroid, what makes them think that they're not finished, I have no idea. Let's also hope that Iron Gauntlet gets to be a thing, with actual new weapons? (That's impossible, the most we'd get is some hats and reskin weapons)

[QUOTE=Fillmore;50039588]this is valve we're talking about the only way to get a response is when something happens that makes it mandatory to have them say something[/QUOTE] Sure they aren't perfect but Valve has been way better at communicating in the past year or so. Two members of the TF team post on reddit and they have been in communication with prominent members of the community like B4nny and Fr0z3nr.

I actually want cactus canyon to stay as it is. Skeleton maps have incredible performance and i dont really play this game for the scenery.

[QUOTE=LZoleee;50039801]They could be somehow tied to the comic role (Possibly only Asteroid, Sniper's mom is still up in space), so their delays might be holding them back.[/QUOTE] Yeah I'm guessing they either tie into the comic somehow or Valve has a specific update in mind for them (either Spy vs Engie or something else) because they could of released them either Gun Mettle or Tough Break if they had wanted to.

I've just been playing TF2 for a little bit, and I've noticed that normal weapon taunts have a high chance of being the Schadenfreude. This is on any class, without having the actual Schadenfreude taunt equipped, just taunting with any non-killtaunt weapon out. It doesn't seem to override when you choose a specific taunt to do like the Conga, for instance. Early April Fool's joke? There may not be much to it than that.

tf2 has an april fools mode. its probably been activated right now. all it does is put a chance of schadenfreude on all gun taunts

You know what I want? I want TF2 team to at least update Asteroid so I do not have to double-check if my graphics card has died cause sometimes some walls make it look like my graphics card has died. Oh and also update beards/masks/any face item that has flexes so mercenaries won't eat them while they are talking. Also update Cactus canyon so all sections does not have death pits, which makes the map a Pyro main's wet dream. Also, asking this for a friend cause he does not have a FP acc: Does beards still move when you disable mouth movement on mercs? I kinda remember seeing it on a stream but not sure if I saw it right.

There's a single hat that needs to be all-class, more so than any other in the entire game.

Well I do like demo and his cosmetics but his bomb vest just clash with too many things.

[QUOTE=Fluury;50036663]Somewhere a child with cancer is considering contacting the make-a-wish foundation to at least get the new comic out while it's still alive[/QUOTE] Fucking hell, the last one came out in August.

[QUOTE=ErichGrooms1;50040820]That hat will totally piss off alot of Gibus wearing players alot, if it becomes an all class cosmetic.[/QUOTE] How? I'm pretty sure none of them are bothered about cosmetics, besides its not as if we want to remove the Hindu. Edit I meant to say gibus instead of Hindu but I'm not changing it.

[QUOTE=Zeos;50040847]Fucking hell, the last one came out in August.[/QUOTE] Didn't they say the wait for the next issue would not be as long? I know it's not 11 months yet, but I wasn't expecting the next wait to only be slightly less long, yeesh! The last issue came a day short of September, I believe, and with it being the last day of March today, it's basically been seven months.

Sometimes I like to think how incredible left4deads comic would have been if makani had made it.

S-Surely the same thing as with Gun Mettle happened, and the comic team had to draw another comic for a [i]Super Huge[/i] Update, which is why it got delayed once again! R-Right?
