[QUOTE=Blackavar;49420118]Found a bug in Vanguard where sometimes the forward spawn door will be locked and you can no longer leave the spawn[/QUOTE]

It's less a bug and more an exploit.

It made my Vanguard contract hell, I can tell you that much.

[QUOTE=LurkMoar;49419888]

Those are interesting. Is that supposed to be a random pin up, or Zhanna? (Like how Spy has a Scoutma pin up)[/QUOTE]

Zhanna, a character in a relationship with the Soldier, as a pin-up on Spy's knife? Not even mentioning how it looks nothing like her, case in point:

It's easy to forget just how hilarious the earlier comic issues were when you've completely forgotten the comic exists because they never fucking update it.

[QUOTE=Rajikaru;49424385]This isn't tumblr mate[/QUOTE]

who cares

[Johnny Joe]

[QUOTE=Rajikaru;49424385]This isn't tumblr mate[/QUOTE]

And I thank God for that everyday.

But legit, it's one of the funniest dialogue exchanges in the TF2 comics, and I hope we see more hilarious stuff like this in the next issue when it comes out.

(also, isn't Tumblr the place where millenial douchebags can whine and bitch about oppression and new age hippie crap?
I doubt they'd condone a man standing nude while eating not one but TWO barbecued bear shanks and then going off to make love to a woman whose hair isn't dyed a neon color.)

:nsfw:

sorry, i just had to.

On Topic: The Knife inspect animation looks CS:GO-ish, too bad valve didnt have an inspect animation that lets you spam knife tricks.
Jokes aside, lets get back on track.

That depends on whether you're sixty years old or not.

Aw schucks you guys, you're flattering me.

OT: I hope they fix the phlog in the next update. It's like fighting walking napalm bombs everyday.
And they really need to upgrade it's flame particles to mach the damage stream.

[Tennate]

happy....uhh...5 hours late new years!

[GuntMyFries]

Here, have a only 2 hour late new years here from the West Coast

[CommodoreKong]

So what are everyone's predictions for TF2 in 2016?

My guesses:

People start to getting matchmaking passes in January, with it becoming public beta in March and not going final until late in 2016. Matchmaking will increase the TF2 playerbase a little bit, but not by a huge amount (maybe 150k concurrent becomes the norm by the end of the year).

An MVM update in the first half of the year with some Valve content and some Iron Gauntlet content. It will have an MVM campaign pass to pay for the community maps.

Two new normal PVP campaigns, one in summer and one in the the winter. The summer one will be the Spy vs Engie update. New Spy and Engie weapons.

Halloween will be a Valve made map plus a couple of community maps.

We'll find out about at least 1 community project besides Iron Gauntlet that goes official (though it might not go official in 2016).

Valve opens a community workshop for skins for campaigns.

Updated Localization Files

[Mifil]

Finished last two comics.
Jk it's not possible.

[Oizen]

I can't remember the last time we've had a real update before June.

The past few years TF2 has been almot entirely dead January through may.
