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

any news?

[QUOTE=IJCT;52549570]any news?[/QUOTE] Other than the VNN video a week ago, not really.

Blatantly stolen from /r/TF2: [url=https://gfycat.com/HatefulSafeAmethystinepython]Gaben takes a look at the TF2 community.[/url] Yeah, yeah, funny joke. We all know Gabe hasn't actually looked at TF2 as anything other than a number on a spreadsheet in years.

I'm still going with the update being released tomorrow-next tuesday since I'll be gone/indisposed.

Did we get merged with other Valve titles due to low traffic into the TF2 section?

I have a really forgiving patience but this is actually insane, I don't even see a section devoted to just TF2 on facepunch. It's gotten that bad

[QUOTE=Serge Ivanov;52549771]I'm still going with the update being released tomorrow-next tuesday since I'll be gone/indisposed.[/QUOTE] oh god, i really feel the same way. i'm gonna be gone from the 15th - 18th and i start school the week after that. i usually wouldn't mind missing an update by a day or two, but last month i got 3 of every weapon, plus a crap load of tokens all for crafting... and they cannot go to waste.

Updates STILL not here yet, and it's nearly the middle of August.

The scout isn't old enough to drink

[QUOTE=Shaohs;52550040]The scout isn't old enough to drink[/QUOTE] The lore in this game never disappoints.

lore from item descriptions? ...is this the D A R K S O U L S of FPS?

I NEED that in the game. Already a better concept than most of the Arms Race 3 submissions. Here's some stats I made up, fuck you: While under the effects: + 20% faster speed + First player hit by the Scout is marked for death - When the effects are over Scout's shots are 20% more inacurrate for 5 seconds. (Hangover) Drink lasts 10 seconds and Scout starts saying things a tipsy gentleman like him would say.

[QUOTE=ikes;52550071]lore from item descriptions? ...is this the D A R K S O U L S of FPS?[/QUOTE] I'm afraid Payday 2 claimed that title years ago

[QUOTE=Fluury;52549062]What were the contents? Was it a baby update, or did it bring something substantial? Either way, there was always a possibility. Also, not that it holds any big relevancy: [url]http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=31464[/url] News post for the Arms Race voting. Speaking of that, go vote![/QUOTE] They just pushed the beta update released August 2nd to the live version

[QUOTE=Chuggoth;52550166]Payday the Heist. Second one is a breeze.[/QUOTE] Dark Souls is a breeze as well, don't kid yourself.

[url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeyUidaq9NE[/url] Who spends more than $151,000 USD on a video game? As Pyro says in the video, many of his items are unpriced, so it's definitely worth more than 151k. I never judge anyone for how they spend their money, as long as they pay for their priorities first. But someone who spends 151k on a game is quite obviously well off. Even if I was well off in real life, I would not spend 151k+ on a video game. We see rich purchase $15,000 hangbags so I guess spending 151k+ on a video game is basically the same thing. I know many people say this, but I honestly mean it, I'm a very simple person. If I were rich, I would purchase: 1) One huge house 2) One holiday House 3) One fancy car (Bugatti) 4) One average car (I'm not getting jumped at the CostCo parking lot driving my Bugatti up there) 5) Three motorcycles (My dream bike + spare bike + a GROM just to screw around on) and that's honestly about it. Even if I had $150,000,000 left over, I wouldn't know what to do with it. Maybe invest or something? 151k is more than enough for a down payment for a house and this guy spends it on pixelated hats. I envy people who can throw money around like that.

I miss item descriptions. We need to do some massive community contest in writing descriptions to get the TF team's attention.

Further proof that if you play Scout, you're a scumbag, because you also support pedophilia.

I don't think scout is consious, legitimate pedo. He's just desperate with girls to the point where clueless underages may well be his only chance.

The funniest thing about Darth Chicken Gaming is that he's quite young. His father is [url=https://backpack.tf/profiles/76561198261771051]The Fat Stormtrooper,[/url] who is [url=http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/76561198261771051]banned on the O.[/url] He's not a scammer's alt, but boy has he traded with some utter sketchballs. The histories on some of his items (like [url=https://backpack.tf/item/3416980765]this GFP,[/url] [url=https://backpack.tf/item/4560141735]and this one[/url] as well as number of his god tier unusuals) all have a bunch of known, banned scammers right before he got them. At least one of said scammer is an alt of the infamous [url=https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198066265426]lategum.[/url]

I finished up saints row 2, saints row the third three times, saints row iv twice and gat out of hell, now i'm playing michael bay the game 2, hopefully this won't end before the update

Now the ending of Dishonored 2 is in sight but not the TF2 update.

[QUOTE=Chuggoth;52550814]JC2? It's pretty short actually, 10-15 hours if you spend time travelling between objectives.[/QUOTE] nah I'm a completionist it'll probably last more than that [QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;52550873]I got a good deal on Dishonored 2 a couple of weeks ago and thought it would be a good way to kill time until the update hits.

Valve told us that they're going to add some new pyro sub-class. Most other sub-classes completely change their class' gameplay (like demoknight, battle engineer, bowman). With current flame mechanics it's very hard to imagine any new playstyles, all current unlockable weapons only make certain already existing playstyles more effective. So, where's the problem? Pyro's flamethrower propels fuel with compressed air to set enemies on fire in close range. To change pyro's playstyle whilst keeping it's main purpose, flames can be replaced with some kind of gaseous poison or acid. Players hit with it will become poisoned (like covered in jarate but green) and take the same close range or timing-based afterburn-like damage. Poison is not fire, so it cannot be extigushed with airblast or water, only with healing. Another thing is that most poisonous gases are heavier than air, so maybe pyro can propel gas on certain area and it will stay there for some time. Pyros will have the same resistance to poison afterburn because he has rubber suit and gas mask. As poison damage is other type than flame, poison-propelling weapons won't work with fire crit combos like flaregun however players can be poisoned and set on fire simultaneously and take damage from both. As Valve stated that pyro will receive full weapon pack (primary, secondary and melee) there can be not only poison-propelling primary but also flaregun that shoots capsules with gas that can also stay on ground and poison enemies in small radius like scorch shot does. As for melee, it can be axtingusher-like combo weapon that deals crits or mini-crits to poisoned enemies.

[QUOTE=noobquire;52551295]Valve told us that they're going to add some new pyro sub-class.[/QUOTE] Not really? They said we'll get another set of weapons that work with eachother, that doesn't mean a subclass.
