Final Major Update Speculation V37 - This is the last MUS thread. Speculate in General Chat. - Games

[QUOTE=runnerbeany;52462449]The lack of communication just makes the community hype up updates even more. Rumours start. Still, every day that passes is one day nearer to the update.[/QUOTE] Remember the rumor that EOTL was going to have like 100 new weapons?

[QUOTE=Serge Ivanov;52462459]Remember the rumor that EOTL was going to have like 100 new weapons?[/QUOTE] Remember when people thought comp was going to be the best thing ever after the big 7 month beta and months on months of feedback? Remember when we had beta maps running along side two beta gamemodes? Remember when those two gamemodes had more than 50 players running around and playing them?

[QUOTE=Seaner23;52462445]The best thing to do currently is just wait it out, give them time and they'll release it when it's ready.[/QUOTE] This was a good strategy in December.

[QUOTE=Serge Ivanov;52462459]Remember the rumor that EOTL was going to have like 100 new weapons?[/QUOTE] I don't actually, I was on a "hiatus"

[QUOTE=Man in the Moon;52462486]This was a good strategy in December.[/QUOTE] Well, you've got a point there. If I'm being honest, none of us have any idea when it's releasing, it could come this month or august, no clue.

[QUOTE=runnerbeany;52462449]The lack of communication just makes the community hype up updates even more. Rumours start. Still, every day that passes is one day nearer to the update.[/QUOTE] This is one of the most positive things I've heard over the past few days!

[QUOTE=Stroheim;52462466]Remember when people thought comp was going to be the best thing ever after the big 7 month beta and months on months of feedback?[/QUOTE] Well when you put it like [i]that[/i]... While normally I'd be hesitant to care about this update because of how terrible MYM was, the blog post giving a peek at the changes gives me hope that this update won't be nearly as brain dead...I have a little unfounded hype based on pyro changes/additions because lol pyro main, but the weapon balances alone are welcome enough to freshen the game up a little. And well, one hopes the balances will be good first time round, because if any (even major) changes need to be made they'll take a year or two (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

If they were to release a blog post for their "Biggest Update", you'd think that they would want to do it around the peak for the day. I don't think it's a thing where Jill's just like "Oh shit! Forgot to release the blog post for that update we've been working on for at least a year."

The pyro update valve, hand it over.

Sorry I was out walking my dog.

[QUOTE=JPRAS;52462171]I can confirm the countdown isn't related to the Jungle update, just the release of the SFM video that has been in production for far too long, as well as some new props for your jungle-y maps![/QUOTE] I for one can't wait for the video, the Winglet always makes high quality TF2 SFM movies.

[QUOTE=Ihauoli;52462653]they still have 3 more hours to do something...[/QUOTE] Hence the [DEL]Special giveaway[/DEL] big dumb stroheim toll if this is wrong [sp]If I'm right does that make me slightly more right than someone whose internet job is to do this?[/sp]

next week it is then, all we can hope for is the emails or something - who even knows anymore I feel my soul leaving my body with every wednesday night

[QUOTE=Fluury;52462885]next week it is then, all we can hope for is the emails or something - who even knows anymore I feel my soul leaving my body with every wednesday night[/QUOTE] it's only been a few minutes...

[QUOTE=Ihauoli;52462385]I honestly expected it to be ~60% no instead of a clean 50/50 split[/QUOTE] Honestly the way that the poll was looking out I thought it was going to be a 70-30 split. I have no idea where the 70 "yes" votes came from

[QUOTE=Ihauoli;52462893]it's only been a few minutes...[/QUOTE] Yeah, gotta wait a few hours before churning out the optimism of the update coming out as early as next week. Too much optimism too early ain't good for ya.

[QUOTE=Stroheim;52462903]Honestly the way that the poll was looking out I thought it was going to be a 70-30 split. I have no idea where the 70 "yes" votes came from[/QUOTE] You heard the mappers, the update isn't going to be out for a while. A while here meaning weeks, not days.

[QUOTE=Ihauoli;52462893]it's only been a few minutes...[/QUOTE] it's exhausting to constantly be hyped and expecting something, and is easier to pretend that there is no chance than to always think there is

[QUOTE=C. Blades;52462927]You heard the mappers, the update isn't going to be out for a while. A while here meaning weeks, not days.[/QUOTE] Do I have to copy, print, and mail you the message from crash saying "They sometimes notify mappers days before Updates" for ya to understand that the community maps arent what is holding the Update back?

[QUOTE=Fluury;52462979]Do I have to copy, print, and mail you the message from crash saying "They sometimes notify mappers days before Updates" for ya to understand that the community maps arent what is holding the Update back?[/QUOTE] They won't tell us if valve told them that their map will be in the update [QUOTE=ics;52457552]None of us map makers are going to spoil the surprise. But you can take a wild guesses based on the activity of certain individuals here if they suddenly go quiet and have spoken actively before about maps getting in. ;)[/QUOTE]

You guys think they're going to add new weapon skins? What are you hoping for if they do?

[QUOTE=Johnny Joe;52463013]You guys think they're going to add new weapon skins? What are you hoping for if they do?[/QUOTE] We have confirmation from Dave Riller that they're going to have non stock weapon skins in this update.

[QUOTE=Johnny Joe;52463013]You guys think they're going to add new weapon skins? What are you hoping for if they do?[/QUOTE] Hoping for new collections, not just a jungle collection.

Well I meant, what types of skins are you all looking forward too? I want skins that look like actual gun designs, think of the AWP Phobos, the m4a1 Flashback, or the FUBAR sawed off from CSGO. I don't think we want anymore "map texture/pattern as a skin" designs.

Flare Gun skin almost seems required.

They have inspect animations for almost every weapon in the game so new skins were never a doubt
