You think they'll push the official comp beta alongside a few Map changes/Wep balance changes?
Honestly I just wanna see the game's development handed over to the community after matchmaking is out of beta. Maybe that way it won't be abandoned like mannpower, SD, player destruction, robot destruction, etc...
Player Destruction (though I really liked Watergate and had fun playing it during Invasion, was a very unique change of pace and setting and a pretty good vertical map for DM-ing) really feels like a one-off event specialty to me and you can't really count it as an 'abandoned' gamemode even if we never get another official map for it. It's not like the Invasion team making a custom map (that needed lots of extra work from the TF2 Team to make it work on non-modded servers) that gets accepted as official in a themed update suddenly means Valve are obliged to provide more maps for the mode. It's a custom gamemode specifically built for an update and thematically centered around a goofy event and a silly objective (alien UFO, dropped beer pickups, tractor beam that sucks up players, beating aliens by getting them drunk) that can't really be 'translated' by Valve or other map authors into non-UFO/beer themed PD maps. I mean, what would take beer's place in these 'regular' Spytech PD maps? What would the deposit place/mechanic look like? Which lines would the announcer use? I just think that while Watergate's fun as a map, the mode itself is probably too weird and has too many inherent issues (rather one-sided rounds, Team Leaders being hard to kill with some dedicated Medics and teammates constantly getting healed around them etc.) to really have a future as a mode with multiple maps. That said, I do support the idea (and Egan said he'd mention the idea to the TF2 Team) of Valve One-Off Mix Servers that host some of the modes with only one map (Asteroid once it's out of Beta (I got a hunch we won't see a great deal more RD maps), Watergate, Doomsday, Standin (doesn't fit into the CP rotation tbh), Degroot Keep, maybe even Hydro). Heck, there's loads of 5CP or A/D Valve servers that seem to be perpetually empty, I don't think dedicating a couple of those per region to a mix of these maps/modes would hurt anybody.
Since Invasion we've had two updates adding maps. I think it's a bit early to call Arena and PD dead again, guys.
[QUOTE=Jetamo;49700414]Since Invasion we've had two updates adding maps. I think it's a bit early to call Arena and PD dead again, guys.[/QUOTE] PD is literally 4 months old, the fact anyone's calling it dead is insane.
On a different topic, does anyone think the Batman promos will ever be tradeable/craftable anytime soon?

Oh how wrong I was. The furthest I got was trying to get it to connect to the Internet before I quit trying, so I'm happy nothing ever came of that penguin.
I really hope Valve makes new Munition crates so you can get new stranges and old rare ones like the Original.
[QUOTE=EmilyVasquez;49701056] ...old rare ones like the Original.[/QUOTE] Not really, stop killing TF2 economy, please! It's already half-dead :c Maybe that's would be nice if the chance of getting original from this crate would be like getting strange kritskrieg from #90.
Still no update on that closed beta?

It's already half-dead :c Maybe that's would be nice if the chance of getting original from this crate would be like getting strange kritskrieg from #90.[/QUOTE] Because as we all know the TF2 economy is relying on the Strange Original staying at its market price at all costs.
[QUOTE=TectoImprov;49701198]Because as we all know the TF2 economy is relying on the Strange Original staying at its market price at all costs.[/QUOTE] Strange Kritskrieg still worth the same as 2-3 years ago, even after #90 crate update.
[QUOTE=ElderLolz;49701336]Then why are you complaining The economy died when keys started to rise and the ability to festivize items. Why bother getting a Strange Festive Medi Gun for $50 when you can get one with a neat skin for $5[/QUOTE] Not everyone likes skinned weapons. Some old players prefer stock skins, so that's why all old festives still worth as a 1-3 years ago.
I hate the argument "But what about the market?!!" people use when it comes to reviving old items. Fuck the market. It's dead and should've been a long time ago. Maybe I'm biased because I fucking despise digital markets for things that are literally just pixels. I just wanna enjoy my game and not have to shill out loads of money because I want a certain nice skin.
Ok, screw this economy shitposting. Thread called "Update speculation" So, i know small hidden (btw it's public) information about upcoming update (and i'm 100% sure it's true) So, here it is : Update will be released on IDFK 1 change that i know is that Dead of Night will be equipable by all classes. Here some proofs : [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=196286212[/url] Also if Sky is there, he could proof my words. Btw it's could be better and easier proof : TF2 staff novadays likes updating old hats (examples : HWNN, Frenchman Formals, Dictator, Special eyes, Mustachioed Mann, HazMat (even if it's just a joke, but they still updated it xD) but only if update has been made 1-2 weeks before update is gonna be released. Some old updates that has been on workshop since 2013-2014 are now succestfully forgotten and neverly gonna be released. That's all i know.

[QUOTE=Blackavar;49701803]he's the russian testinglol[/QUOTE] It's even more funny because he's on my friends list on Steam :D Mnw i'm a bit scared that i'm posted 2much there, maybe you all shouldn't know this... Idk Btw do yo know guys that i'm already predicted that Mustachioed Mann will be all-class like a 3 days before this happen? Can private proof that if you wanna, but only on PM hours (of my timezone), since i'm starting getting sick of night-posts. Edit. -sees sky_216 are online right now - runs away and screams-
If the Dead of Night becomes all class, I may as well sell all my other cosmetics and just have a singular all-class loadout, because that looks sweet.
make sure you ask CanILeakThis?@valvesoftware.com before u leak stuff
It's not really a "leak" of any kind since anyone can go see the workshop page for the Dead of Night and see that its updated.
