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

[QUOTE=MarioMaster2008;51241691]So at the beginning of the update, the patch notes read that there were 22 cosmetics in this collection. A very short while later, one of the items, the "Improv Coonskin Cap" was deleted from the game and apparently pulled from the Steam Workshop. Which would mean that its only record of ever existing was the short while it was actually in the game. You can see its schema deletion entry [url=http://git.optf2.com/schema-tracking/commit/?h=teamfortress2&id=c176daddd208ad5a7e042c13d2bd8a3a802d55b4]here[/url]. However, it turns out, you can still see its backpack icon, which was uploaded to the Steam servers before its removal.

The airplane cosmetics just aren't a part of the Creepy Crawly Collection, that's all.[/QUOTE] It's probably for the best, it's a pretty ugly hat.

a cooler valve would of made the new cases key a giant bug swatter also loading into a server black screens my pc 10/10

I can't party up with my friends, i hate waiting to join a server too. I'm done with this update

My contract doesn't have a progress bar. Good update. Fun update.

can we undo an update? can we do that? because this feels like it was thrown together last minute. and i mean that as in there wasn't a game-breaking bug; they literally did the entirety of the update last minute. i dont even want pyro update if this is what it's going to be like

[QUOTE=S'Arais;51241737]can we undo an update? can we do that?[/QUOTE] Come on, this update didn't make the game worse in any way, it just didn't add anything substantial to it.

[QUOTE=Magypsy;51241741]Come on, this update didn't make the game worse in any way, it just didn't add anything substantial to it.[/QUOTE] Yes it did, It shattered hope I didn't know I had.

[QUOTE=Magypsy;51241741]Come on, this update didn't make the game worse in any way, it just didn't add anything substantial to it.[/QUOTE] it broke the game for me so it made it worse for me

This shit wouldn't of flied if we stayed mad at valve for even trying to monetize mods...

[QUOTE=Magypsy;51241741]Come on, this update didn't make the game worse in any way, it just didn't add anything substantial to it.[/QUOTE] It's a fucking bullet to the balls for me. I am a Halloween fanatic, and seeing one of my favorite games put out a bad halloween even hurts like how everyone else felt during Meet your Match. come to think of it, that's what SF8 is: Meet your Match for Scream Fortress fans.

Has anyone even got a Merasmisson yet? I'm I didnt get one upon booting up the game or booting up a match

We only get this til Nov 9. Which is even more a kick in the balls. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/id/SArais/inventory/#440[/url] as you can tell, i'm not big on the other year-round cosmetics, which is why i like the more kickass halloween items.

Did valve really just place a spider on the gargoyle box and key

I'm having more fun on the new Pit map than I ever had on Harvest_event, or Carnival, or Eyeaduct. By that metric I'd say it's at LEAST middle of the road in terms of Halloween update quality so far, you guys need to chill. And Valve servers always shit the bed when a new update comes out, give it a few hours and the contracts will be up.

This update does feel a little thrown together last minute, especially with the lack of an update page. I can understand why Valve would be too busy this year to do an update but I hope they have time to make some new content for Halloween next year. [QUOTE=GuntMyFries;51241789]Has anyone even got a Merasmisson yet? I'm I didnt get one upon booting up the game or booting up a match[/QUOTE] Nope I haven't gotten one. The GC servers are most likely being hammered right now.

[QUOTE=rolfum;51241809]Did valve really just place a spider on the gargoyle box and key[/QUOTE] Yep.

Three things: #1 Fuck these map changes in competitive. They will never listen to community outcry when it comes to maps. Also, hoo-lee shit they spent like 20 minutes on the materials/icons for this update didn't they? #2 I like some of the cosmetics in this update. The heavy's new shirt, the new spy set, and new helicopter/plane models finally showed up #3 Does anyone have a list of the holloween restricted items?

Starstorm Slumber and Starstorm Insomnia are pretty rad though!

this game wont stop crashing, cant even make it past the server loading screen I'll just wait for the patch Monday

[QUOTE=Stroheim;51241846][t]http://i.imgur.com/8o60bWn.png[/t] Bunly Beast Also, anyone try the maps yet? How are they?[/QUOTE] the pit one is pretty good, brimstone is low-mediocre, and Maple ridge is dull and boring.

when I first saw "death pit" in the map list, I thought we got that gravelpit event reskin that looked so cool, now I'm just sad

Look at it the other way. At least the bi-annual comic wasn't delayed by another Halloween comic.

[B][U]HOLD UP[/U][/B] [t]https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/f/fd/FvN_celtic_crown.png?t=20111124085829[/t] Celtic Crown from Fancy vs Nasty (2010) [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/391049170408627255/C67C973BCA112155A4FA8EEF5748D13AD1E78123/[/t] That new crown thing from this update. These two items are way too similar to just be a coincidence.

garbage update with one decent map and two mediocre maps and next to no "good" cosmetics. the kicker is that they added brimstone (which is hellstone but a thousand fucking times less shit) and kept fucking hellstone in. ""halloween"" cobtracts that don't work because you forgot to turn them back on, just shows how little thought went into this update. oh and they also forgot to give soul gargoyles to people who deleted their soul gargoyles. here i thought we couldn't top how bad ETOL was but i guess we have. oh and congrats valve for showing everyone on this update that y[B]ou only wanted your customer's money and don't care how much corner cutting you do to release a ""Major Content Update"" to your 7+ year old game. [/B] you may as well just start development on """Team Fortress 3""" and hope to god that you don't fuck up as badly as you did with this update alone. oh but wait [B]THERE'S MORE![/B] it took you people 4 whole fucking years to make a competitive ""matchmaking"" system that was just cut/pasted matchmaking that MvM uses, along with [B]ZERO[/B] weapon restrictions or class limits (because fighting 4 engineers while trying to push last is [highlight]FUN, RIGHT GUYS?[/highlight]) the community has had it's own competitive for [B]YEARS now[/B] and you suddenly think you can force people to use your [B]Godawful, untested trainwreck of a system and [highlight]OUTRIGHT IGNORE THE COMMUNITY'S SUGGESTIONS FOR SAID SYSTEM AND THEN REMOVE THE "Beta" TAG FROM SAID SYSTEM?[/highlight] i think not.[/B] the community will still use their own competitive formats because [B]they work and your silly excuse for a competitive format is fucking asine garbage that will be looked at in disappointment for future generations.[/B] you guys can give me shit all you want but i have at least one valid point in that "rant" about how badly valve fucked up this time, at this point you people should hope that they don't do the same to sissmas 2016.

[QUOTE=Demohamtheyum;51241934] the kicker is that they added brimstone (which is hellstone but a thousand fucking times less shit) and kept fucking hellstone in. [/QUOTE] That's what I thought at first too but Brimstone is based on Fifth Curve/5Curve, which is a different map but by the same map maker has Hellstone/Millstone.

They managed to screw up things again, remember the glitched universal kits? They are back now apparently.

Mine was at least.
