Major Update Speculation V35 - A Distinctive Lack of Communication - Games

[QUOTE=Woozlez;51564417]How come I haven't seen a post where someone goes digging through the files yet? Let me see those sweet hidden code snippets so we can retain even the slightest bit of hype.[/QUOTE] Nobody cares anymore. Im really not in the mood to be teased by valve.

[QUOTE=Oizen;51564410]So yeah how about that overwatch christmas update.[/QUOTE] Playing it a lot more than TF2, that's for sure.

Will the pyro update be dissapointing, given that valve has had sooo much time to work on it? [B]Rate Optimistic if you think it will fix the pyro or at least help him[/B] [B]Rate Disagree if you think it will dissapoint[/B] [B]Rate Dumb if you dont care anymore[/B]

Glad I didn't get too excited... Also Goddamnit at them re-including auto-balance. Glad it's optional at least, but still, it's not addressing the people who caused the lopsided match to begin with. =/ Glad I kept 5 of those festizers from last year, got all of the festive weapons I wanted for the four classes I collect them for. Still a little sad that there still isn't a Festive Degreaser or hell, even a Powerjack yet though =C I like that most of the cosmetics introduced at least seem winter/festive themed. I get some new choices to compliment my festive set ups. Also glad none of them are the elite grade, they can keep that fox skin lol. Good grief, there's already 9 of the Brain-Warming Wears out there lol...

Seriously WTF Valve? They can't do a new Halloween map again this year and we get no new campaign, no balance updates and no pyro pack? Not event a mention saying something like that stuff is coming in early 2017? I'm extremely disappointed in the TF team right now.

Damn this is worse than 2013

Why is the pistol listed with the new festivizeable weapons? I could have sworn I had a festive pistol already.

[QUOTE=LZoleee;51564527]Why is the pistol listed with the new festivizeable weapons? I could have sworn I had a festive pistol already.[/QUOTE] You can festivize the stock pistol now. Last year they allowed only the skinned ones to be festivized.

The map voting at the end of a casual map is a nice addition, but wish it's 5 map choices instead of 3.

There will never be the update that makes him good.

Add stopwatch back and stop giving XP to rage quitters, want to level up then stay until the match is over

[QUOTE=Oizen;51564542]Pyro gets buffed every update. There will never be the update that makes him good.[/QUOTE] Not this one, because there weren't any buffs at all!

Just wanted to drop in and thank everyone involved for the utterly hilarious shitstorm that has been the past few pages of this thread. I've laughed out loud more than a few times. You're doing God's work. [QUOTE=Firetornado;51564493][B]Rate Dumb if you dont care anymore[/B][/QUOTE] Absolute best type of poll. "Rate dumb to represent an opinion I've arbitrarily assigned to your rating. You're unable to suggest that the poll itself is dumb. Checkmate."

Thread music? [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCk8ULH9N2c[/media]

why did they give festives to a shovel, i've never seen alot of people use that weapon for a while now :v: unless their new the game i completely understand.

Im worried based on valves actions this year, but at least they linked frompyrowithlove.com, which means they saw it.

[QUOTE=Cosmic feel;51564516]Damn this is worse than 2013[/QUOTE] Yeah at least 2013 had Two Cities in November (which had a lot of the content a Christmas update would have) and a few gameplay changes (though it did give us the super buff to the Short Circuit and the Christmas 2013 Short Circuit is what I consider to be the most broken/OP a weapon has ever been in TF2).

[QUOTE=Druidlyclean;51564064][t]http://i.imgur.com/OJMQE2y.png[/t] Ok, so I was looking for the table model in SFM and found out there are two versions of the model. Not sure if its used or not, but showing it off either way[/QUOTE] From the looks of it, the "ChefSteps Joule Promo" is just gonna be that taunt with a different table model.

You know I was the guy who expected another "what we're up to" post and I'm still disappointed.

Anyone have a video of the new valve made taunt?

I honestly hope for a good pyro update now. [DEL]and at least a cosmetic of mine in impoorthxgoodbye[/DEL]

Hey even if they didn't have the comic, rebalances, Pyro pack, or anything large ready, whats the excuse for not having Cactus Canyon done with a quick Skybox? It would have been a nice surprise and was already complete sans a Skybox.

What's the deal with all these people with broken, chipmunk voices in game? At first I thought it was a joke person and muted him. But I've seen like 5+ people already dealing with this.

Asteroid was mechanically finished though.

I'm curious as to how some of the festives look.

[QUOTE=EmilyVasquez;51564737]I'm curious as to how some of the festives look.[/QUOTE] Just like the original sets, the default look + lights. I picked up four so far, since I collect useful Festives for 4 of the classes... ( Holding off on Quick-Fix as I don't want to mess up my loadout I have for it )

[QUOTE=DONK! 2x;51564762][url]http://imgur.com/a/E4vDJ[/url][/QUOTE] Very doubtful, but the Sandman does he hit snowballs by chance? If not, that would have been a very simple thing to do and would compliment the bat.

[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;51564735]Canyon still needed major changes. The last stage played like a shitty PLR map.[/QUOTE] I think increasing the setup time on the last stage would've helped a lot. I don't recall playing many rounds on that stage which were anything other than a complete steamroll for the BLU team.

This new Demo taunt is pretty awesome.
