TF2 General Chat and Update Speculation Station - One of Several Edition - Games

Hasn't been a FP server for quite awhile. Kinda miss them, had a lot of fun with fellow forum goers. [editline]1st July 2017[/editline] Isn't redsun hosted by someone on Facepunch?

[QUOTE=Plethora_of_squids][URL="https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/6khiav/dissociative_identity_disorder_sfm/djmibeq/"]-snip-[/URL][/QUOTE] For a second I thought I ended up at WritingPrompts.

A FP server for TF2 would be neat and we could actualy make use of the discord server by telling people to join the server

So I went back in TF2, but for some reason I can't have the game in Spanish with English voices, only with Spanish voices and Spanish text or English voices with English text Did they change something or what? I remember having different voice+text language

[QUOTE=hahagoni_r;52422167]Set your language to Spanish in game and then put "[B]-audiolanguage english[/B]" in launch properties, for some reson changing the so called spoken languge in-game changes the UI language aswell (please fix)[/QUOTE] thanks a lot man, i now have english voices with spanish text

I didn't even know that TF2 had any voice dubs other than english.

There is no situation in which I try to cap harder than when someone on Hightower says "NO PLZ DONT CAP". Kiddies need to fuck off out of matchmaking and go to an idle server if they wanna play TDM stalemate for an hour.

[QUOTE=JackingApples;52422790]I didn't even know that TF2 had any voice dubs other than english.[/QUOTE] It does have foreign voice lines, but sadly they are all largely incomplete since the game has been updated so many times over the years.

[QUOTE=Upgrade;52422864]It does have foreign voice lines, but sadly they are all largely incomplete since the game has been updated so many times over the years.[/QUOTE] Valve should really contract out with a couple of foreign companies to redub the game in at least a couple of foreign languages.

[QUOTE=BanthaFodder;52422803]Kiddies need to fuck off out of matchmaking and go to an idle server if they wanna play TDM stalemate for an hour.[/QUOTE] or, you know, go to one of the many hightower servers with a plugin that REMOVES THE CARTS.

[QUOTE=Blackavar;52422910]or, you know, go to one of the many hightower servers with a plugin that REMOVES THE CARTS.[/QUOTE] Those exist? You learn something new every day...

why would the crossbow mention "no headshots" lmao. non-tech savvy players aren't going to know the crossbow was based from huntsman. They would rather compare it vs needlegun and needles certainly don't headshot regardless

[QUOTE=JackingApples;52422790]I didn't even know that TF2 had any voice dubs other than english.[/QUOTE] I knew it had German, Russian and French voice dubs but I had no idea about Spanish ones.

They would rather compare it vs needlegun and needles certainly don't headshot regardless[/QUOTE] Reminds me that you could headshot with the Rescue Ranger when it came out. It was funny.

On the whole "don't cap on x map" thing, if there was a deathmatch style game mode that used the arena maps, do you think it could breath some new life into them? I really like some arena maps but I only ever see them get played on Vs Hale nowdays. Spawn areas would have to be reworked though.

The only true dm right now is team fortress classic 2 and even at its current state its more fun to play than hightower

What class sounds really cool speaking a foreign language?

[QUOTE=Torterra;52424009]What class sounds really cool speaking a foreign language?[/QUOTE] Oddly enough, the Russian version of Heavy has a great reputation. I don't speak the language, but apparently he's very witty and literate. A far cry from "Heavy is pie!"

In French, the spy has a shitty English/American accent. Here's a compelation of each class. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2zcw6aZwd4&app=desktop[/url] [QUOTE=Lerd;52424936]Doesn't Heavy have a PhD in russian literature or something?[/QUOTE] According to poker night.

[QUOTE=JackingApples;52423211]Reminds me that you could headshot with the Rescue Ranger when it came out. It was funny.[/QUOTE] and that reminds me of when the sticky jumper first came out, it could deal damage to both teams.

I miss the rocket jumper making you immune to self damage from the kamikaze taunt.

[QUOTE=JackingApples;52422790]I didn't even know that TF2 had any voice dubs other than english.[/QUOTE] tf2 was localized at launch to Spanish, Russian, German, French [video=youtube;x2zcw6aZwd4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2zcw6aZwd4[/video] but afaik the dubs are all awful and fail to capture the work and charm of the originals by a long shot. not to mention they haven't update them at all since Spy vs Sniper so any new lines added since then will still play in english. Only the texts have been kept up to date.

I feel like if they recorded voice lines for other languages and haven't updated them since 2009 why even do them if you're not gonna make new ones?

So, what's everyone's theories for what the Administrator is going to do in Comic 7? [sp]Assuming she actually is the Administrator. She's freakishly more old than Helen was, and some of her lines hint that she might me Emily, the woman who stockpiled Australium for Radigan.[/sp]

[QUOTE=EmilyVasquez;52427014]I feel like if they recorded voice lines for other languages and haven't updated them since 2009 why even do them if you're not gonna make new ones?[/QUOTE] Since EA handled the physical publishing of The Orange Box and porting it to PS3 I'm guessing they're the one that handled the foreign voicelines and the initial translations especially given how much smaller Valve and Steam was at the time. It's likely the contract between EA and Valve only lasted for so long. Valve might not even have access to the voice actors who did the original voice over lines and may have to re-do them all (which they should do IMO to help grow TF2 in non-English speaking countries).
