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

[QUOTE=Oizen;51513561]Casual had better quality matches for like, 2-3 days. then they went to shit.[/QUOTE] I liked it because there were people actually playing the objective, half your team wasn't leaving the moment you lost 1 round in KOTH, it felt like people actually tried to play the game instead of going friendly heavy every match and cry when someone dare kills you, the matches didn't become tedious and also not having to sit through a match where you have to watch your team get steamrolled thanks to the stopwatch.

[QUOTE=Fluury;51513151]Either way, since the Update is close, have a half-assed Bingo sheet. [/QUOTE] Here's mine [IMG]http://puu.sh/sLYe7/9dbf188c4b.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Oizen;51513561]Casual had better quality matches for like, 2-3 days. then they went to shit.[/QUOTE] I feel like the matches were better because a lot of older, more skilled players came back for the update and left soon after, not because of any changes to the matchmaking system.

[QUOTE=Fluury;51512142]Well, I'd call competitive a big change on gameplay. Slightly off topic : [url]http://www.dota2.com/700[/url] Is this the first Valve Update to happen on a Sunday?[/QUOTE] So where is that juggernaut arcana :v. Oh wait the new hero gets a new arcana great. Thanks valve.

Just find a spot to hide the dispenser and use it as an easy source to recharge your watches to full when needed lol. I could just see people complain about the Dead Ringer more if they left this in...

Thus, engi won't be buffed with 2 dispensers, heavy wouldn't be able to hold m1 and use dispenser's hitbox, and spy himself wouldn't be able to regain cloak. I hate being on low HP as spy just because the medic has the "don't heal spies" mantra going on.

If Spy had something like that then it should be destroyed if he dies as well as a sort of balance.

[QUOTE=Hell-met;51512912]i love this pattern with Scream Fortress each year has 1 less update separating them[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://puu.sh/sMgA3/8d6021916e.png[/IMG] that's where you're wrong kiddo

yea the pattern fades after like ~5 years. my argument is literally invalided. plus aren't you like 19 or something :v:

[QUOTE=Hell-met;51515126]yea the pattern fades after like ~5 years. my argument is literally invalided. plus aren't you like 19 or something :v:[/QUOTE] I'm fairly certain the kiddo is facetious, son.

So, which Heavy weapon do you think will be next on the chopping block?

[QUOTE=Hell-met;51515126]yea the pattern fades after like ~5 years. my argument is literally invalided. plus aren't you like 19 or something :v:[/QUOTE] im 17, get it right kiddo

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;51515239]So, which Heavy weapon do you think will be next on the chopping block?[/QUOTE] My guess is we'll see minimal Heavy changes until the Heavy update but you never know.

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;51515239]So, which Heavy weapon do you think will be next on the chopping block?[/QUOTE] kgb of course the last untouched legendary bastion of a forgotten age of wonders

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;51515239]So, which Heavy weapon do you think will be next on the chopping block?[/QUOTE] Wouldn't surprise me if they nerf the fucking chocolate bar at this point.

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;51515239]So, which Heavy weapon do you think will be next on the chopping block?[/QUOTE] Worst case scenario for me would be them touching the Tomislav any more. I feel it's at a good place, where it shines well on it's own, but doesn't over shadow stock minigun for every situation... Although personally I don't use stock minigun nearly as much as I used too because of this... RIP My festive Heavy loadout. =C

The Heavy is obviously going to be deleted from the game

[QUOTE=Ace of Butts;51515545]The Heavy is obviously going to be deleted from the game[/QUOTE] honestly id be happy if they straight removed pyro

[QUOTE=Ace of Butts;51515545]The Heavy is obviously going to be deleted from the game[/QUOTE] No, they'll save that for the Heavy update.

[QUOTE=Lord Exor;51515583]No, they'll save that for the Heavy update.[/QUOTE] Wow asking a bit much arent we?

10 funbucks says that Heavy nerfs will be a defining feature of the next update, complete with a signed and gold-leaf embossed letter from the TF team, delivered to my doorstep, that says "fuck you".

[QUOTE=AD/HD;51515572]honestly id be happy if they straight removed pyro[/QUOTE] speaking as a spy main, pyro mains are the bane of my existence and every time I die in some bullshit way to them I lose a little bit more of my soul [I]however[/I] speaking also a comp player, I'd much rather Pyro be balanced into a skill-indexed class that's not complete cancer to play as or against, and even in its current state Pyro is rather weak and usually (USUALLY) easy to deal with [QUOTE=NotTheBestGuy;51515608]Maybe all of that will happen [B][I]Soon[/I][/B][/QUOTE] eh we have another 7-8 months before Heavy is either made fun/viable or held underwater until he stops struggling [QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;51515615]I made my Bingo card: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/iU87zYv.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] my bets are on: Cactus Canyon - X - [B]Major Comp Changes[/B] - Bison Buffed, But... - 2 Day Update Page New Comic - Asteroid - [B]New Voice Codec Added To Valve Servers[/B] - X - [B]Contract System (should be free space tbh)[/B] X - X - Merry Smissmass - [B]Map No One Wants To Play[/B] - X New Voice Lines - X - Com Server Browser (please) - Prestige in Casual MM - [B]Questionable Rebalance[/B] New Taunts - Parties - [B]Tacky Cosmetic As Rarest Tier[/B] - New Unusual Effects - Something No One Saw Coming bolded the ones I'm most sure of but I'm calling it now, bottom row is most likely to bingo unless Valve manages to blindside us by...[B]not[/B] blindsiding us that would be a plot twist

I'd hope for 3 day update page like in the past but i don't think we even see 2 day page but here's my take. [IMG]http://server2.pelipurkki.fi/~dustin/crap/bingo.png[/IMG] After doing the bingobongo, scorpios map propably has a good chance of going official, since it's made by him and he has many maps in already.

I think the throwable molotov is a bit of a strech. Grenades were removed for a reason.
