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

We're really grasping at straws at this point but damn me i'm looking forward to the 16th now

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;52467298]That winglet part isn't old news, and that PL_thundermountain part is not a "theory", it was pretty much confirmed that they played a map that was similar to thundermountain. [editline]14th July 2017[/editline] This update deprivation has truly brought out the worst speculation. "Sunday update for real, trust me I have a feeling :)))" "This and this happened, he probably put an easteregg somewhere :)))"[/QUOTE] Um, and? I just reinforced the idea that there is a chance, however small it is. It's still a theory. Some of the animators said that was just regular pl_thundermountain. Remember: this is Major Update [B]Speculation[/B].

It might be major update speculation, before speculating anything you should see if you can prove your own speculation wrong before posting it, that's what I do before saying something here, and I can tell you your speculation on the sfm is wrong, because if you watch the trailer of it(released before the jungle update is announced by Valve), you can clearly see the same very date, July 16 1970 [t]https://image.ibb.co/cCEmua/Screenshot_2017_07_14_09_21_59.png[/t] Edit: I don't see why and how the tf team could have communicate a release date when they are not even certain when the update will be finished and tell mappers to keep working. I'm sorry but no update on July 16th Edit 2: remember when valve tried to do that with invasion? And the update got delayed, valve makes mistakes but they wouldn't make again the same, I hope.

I wonder which one of us will go to the madhouse first?

[QUOTE=agrastiOs;52467242]Well Dota 2's 7.00 Update released at Sunday, and it was the biggest Dota 2 Update. Winglet was in Valve. Remember the theory that the Saxxy winners actually played the Jungle Map, not just pl_thundermountain? Anyway, Winglet got a trip to Valve because he won Saxxy Awards 2016 'Best Overall'. During or after the Valve trip (in June), he in Reddit said 'I don't know why everyone seems to think the update will be at the end of the month, just because VNN said so.' He could have very well snuck in and have done an easter egg of the Update's release date.[/QUOTE] Even if the Saxxy winners saw some of the update content (which seems possible) I doubt had a exact date for the summer update at that point. I doubt the summer update ever has a hard release date like Halloween or Christmas likely do.

Oh I had an idea for a skin collection, the cases themselves look like coolers, and the skins look like a variety of frozen treats, each wear gives it a meting kind of look to it. Thoughts?

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;52467298]That winglet part isn't old news, and that PL_thundermountain part is not a "theory", it was pretty much confirmed that they played a map that was similar to thundermountain. [/QUOTE] That wasn't confirmed at all. From what I recall different content contributors have given different answers to this topic, ranging from "new map" to "modified version of thundermountain" to "just thundermountain". [QUOTE=ElderLolz;52467298] [editline]14th July 2017[/editline] This update deprivation has truly brought out the worst speculation. "Sunday update for real, trust me I have a feeling :)))" "This and this happened, he probably put an easteregg somewhere :)))"[/QUOTE] While I agree that the 16th July is stretching it you shouldn't shit talk people assuming ETAs without providing arguments and then do it yourself. [QUOTE=ElderLolz;52466277]See y'all in August.[/QUOTE]

What if against all logic, the update comes out on July 16th, and The Winger is just perfect at predicting things.

I get the feeling that if Valve I did have a date in mind, they are now just trying to finish and push as soon as possible.

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;52467636]Do I really need to bring up arguments as to why I think the idea that a quite small team would release a large update on a sunday is stupid[/QUOTE] an update on sunday is impossible, but I'm sure this update will have atleast one blog post/update page at least a day before release, and this can happen on any day of the week

[QUOTE=Jichael;52467357]Furthermore, Winglet himself [URL="https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/6n449y/the_lost_idol_sfm_by_the_winglet/dk71y7k/"]said most of the animation was done 2 years or so ago.[/URL] As much as I'd like it to mean something, I'm pretty sure the date is just coincidence.[/QUOTE] Well, to put an end to all this since i did the folder & eviction notice : July 16th is the birthday of my father and big sister and "3393-NS" is my birthday date and my initials. Funfact : for the folder, i took inspiration from Dr.Strangelove's Wing Attack Plans [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/0bMwZj0.png[/IMG] Did you find this reference ? If so, i'm proud of you, you have some good taste. If not, stop immediately what you're doing and go watch this amazing movie.

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;52467636]Do I really need to bring up arguments as to why I think the idea that a quite small team would release a large update on a sunday is stupid[/QUOTE] As I said, I'm on the same side as you, a Sunday Update won't happen. I'm talking about the "see ya in august".

I think i can distil most of the post types in this thread with the use of percentages 40%"surely next week"/Optimism 20% Discussion about balance and misunderstandings 10% Info both plausable and neato 30% resistance against fire damage But seriously,with this drought its no wonder people are at the edge of faith about the update and possibly the state of TF2.

[QUOTE=Edgy Numetal;52467504]What if against all logic, the update comes out on July 16th, and The Winger is just perfect at predicting things.[/QUOTE] How can a scout secondary make predictions?

Oh boy our friend delfy found another infinite crit bug. See you in august.

[QUOTE=Big Snake Bos;52467861]Oh boy our friend delfy found another infinite crit bug. See you in august.[/QUOTE] At least post the fuckin' video. [video=youtube;CDhgXy3OCSA]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDhgXy3OCSA[/video] It is nothing worth worrying over though, you get crits every time you taunt with the [I]Scorch Shot.[/I] I doubt you can even come close to abusing that, seeing as the easiest way to get that working would require a Medic with full kritz.

Bug fix needed for Pyro. Incoming Pyro update confirmed guys!

That taunt is very easy to avoid thanks to it being so slow, and you can't move in the process. Have fun killing probably only really bad players or snipers on 2fort!

The fact that he and his pals could only get about a grand total of 2 minutes of them actually getting kills is the icing on the cake in my opinion, just shows how Delfy [I]really[/I] wanted to make another exploit video.

And it does 60 damage (ok, plus afterburn)? Loch-n-load spam is more dangerous.

[QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;52467908]Incoming Pyro update confirmed guys![/QUOTE] What are you talking about

Yay another Pyro crit gimmick

Does anyone know what this is? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GiMa6Um.png[/IMG] From reddit: [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/6n8ujd/does_anyone_know_what_this_is/[/url] Edit: Steam DB page: [url]https://steamdb.info/app/1880/[/url]

[QUOTE=Blackavar;52467950]What are you talking about[/QUOTE] The Scorch Shot bug fix of course. It's the Pyro update we've all been waiting for!

Testing the new update ( maybe with community members) so there arent massive gamebreaking bugs on release?
