TF2 General Chat and Speculation Station V6 - Year of the Guard Dog SURVEY IN OP - Games

That just sounds like standard laziness at this point, tbh.

I wouldn't be expecting anything huge. It's way too soon for anything really large.

If my memory serves right, a few weeks ago, Hydrogen (Potato's MvM Servers owner) emailed Eric about the medal cap being met, and received an email back saying that it will be fixed next update, and there hasn't been an update addressing this thus far. So, if I'm correct, it will probably be addressed and fixed alongside a more substantial update that isn't just simple cosmetic fixes and whatever bug reaches the front page in /r/tf2. I wouldn't hold my breath myself but it's as good of a lead as any. And again, I did not say this update has to be major, I have no idea why everyone thought so from my post (probably because I said "update" and "+400 days" in my post in a poor attempt at humor, which I will never do again). I just don't think that there's not a good reason not to hotfix this in a normal thursday, is all, so I think that they're holding everything on a more substantial patch/update of sorts addressing gameplay and what not.

I'm trying to play Titanium Tank but literally every fuckin' time I try to play Teien my game crashes, no matter how low I drop my settings good map also help please

Even if something huge was planned, I'm still holding strong to my stance that I'll hold all expectations low till it actually hits. I tire of getting worked up over something ( not just TF2 as well ) any more.

remember they're always holding on (shitty) balance tweaks to artifically inflate major updates so it looks more meaningful and that "makes us happy"

All this can be done without valve touching anything. In fact, it usually gets done without an update.

Teien's framerate problems are caused by the hatch area being elevated, the entire level renders because of it and with the metric ton of detail the map has, it tends to crush PCs (my fps sinks to 10 or below at the hatch during fights)

A bugfix a week keeps the would ake everyone so happy on such a scale, even if its just a dumb typo on a ESL badge from 201X. It'd mean we'd be back to the schedule of "update thrursdays and fix-it fridays."

Ooh I've never seen this one before, I think it's a really neat concept - shame the development is kinda slow but hey

With the exception that the medals aren't in the game at the moment - valve can't magically put the medal in your game without doing an Update.

Which other ones are confirmed but not added yet?

Journey to the East medals come to mind.

that would be amazing laziness, even from valve I don't normally do FTFY posts.

I wonder how much they will run the diamondback to the ground when they nerf it

Diamondback -50% firing speed Stores max 3 mini-crits Earns 1 mini-crit on sapped building

We've had plenty of item schema "nothing" patches before. Some that even went unnoticed.

Item schema updates need client updates to actually get into TF2.

I think they'll use Tournament Medal. Or did I miss something?

That is Pick/Ban Prolander.

Hm, yes. This is pretty much why I think they'll use it.

There's also just Prolander. A Cup of that just happened.

It was pick/ban prolander. They just do pick/bans only in high divisions.

So the lower divisions - which were also confirmed to receive medals - are going to get pick/ban prolander badges even though they didn't have pick/ban?

Just like in NA one day cup, isn't it?

Did that one work like that? If yes then - touchè. I didn't know about that one. Still though, with the rest of the medals floating around and the Titanium Tank thing, I'd be looking up.

Not exactly with this EU cup we had. The next cup is Pick/Ban, yes, but not this one. However it seems that the medals will be that 7 model, but it would still be required to be an addition to have name differences.

What's important is whether or not my Special Snowflake 2016 badge becomes paint-able.

EricS just responded to two of my bug reports. He said for them both: "We’ll fix this for the next update. Thanks for the email." The two bugs are that you can't spectate buildings in Casual/Comp and that Welcome Cameras are broken in Casual/Comp.

Guess I should email them some bugs I found to them, I just email eric directly not using the mail dialog on their site to record it in sent mail.
