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

[QUOTE=grif;52376974]whats does ASAP [i]really[/i] mean in valve time though[/QUOTE] Based on the context clues, relatively soon, maybe a week or a few weeks.

I seriously think that few people who got their maps in already know about it. Valve may or may not pick few more depending on how the maps are being worked on this week. Either that or the update is further away in the future than we think. Regardless of the result, i still have to finish one map with fixes.

Is this the week for the balancing Blog Post?

[QUOTE=Fluury;52377744]Is this the week for the balancing Blog Post?[/QUOTE] If we still think the update is in the first week of July- has it ever been later?- then I'd say now would be a good time to take community feedback.

[QUOTE=Contra132;52377794]If we still think the update is in the first month of July- has it ever been later?- then I'd say now would be a good time to take community feedback.[/QUOTE] If only someone had posted a list of the dates of the last 7 summer updates along with the Steam sale dates on this very page then you could check to see if it's been later.

[QUOTE=ComodoreBluth;52377918]If only someone had posted a list of the dates of the last 7 summer updates along with the Steam sale dates on this very page then you could check to see if it's been later.[/QUOTE] I vaguely remembered it and didn't recall any summer updates coming after the first week of July, but I left a little room to stretch it in case I'd forgotten. >:(

Do we have any sources on how many days the update will be? AKA 1 or 2 day update?

[QUOTE=Paradox_cg;52378071]Do we have any sources on how many days the update will be? AKA 1 or 2 day update?[/QUOTE] But they have mentioned it will be one of the biggest updates ever so i think we can assume it's going to be at least a two day update but what I am saying is speculation due to the past summer updates having a two day update but if you go further back wasn't sniper vs spy a whole week.

Also I REALLY want this in the game: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=627981624[/url] Simple but awesome

[QUOTE=Paradox_cg;52378106]Also I REALLY want this in the game: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=627981624[/url] Simple but awesome[/QUOTE] YES, I want a new Taunt where others can join me ^^

Well 175k visitors should get that taunt in no time. Also, i'd hope for multiple day update tease for old times sake. 3 days would be great!

[QUOTE=ics;52378214]Well 175k visitors should get that taunt in no time. Also, i'd hope for multiple day update tease for old times sake. 3 days would be great![/QUOTE] I hope for a multiday update as well. I am assuming it will be 2 days at least. One pyro themed and one jungle themed. Since the Jungle update has been viewed as a specific theme with a lot of community input where as the pyro pack was viewed as a balance changing update with new pyro weapons.

Tomorrow blogpost, then starting on the 4th we get a 4-day update (2 for pyro, 2 for jungle) ending on friday the 7th? [IMG]https://media.tenor.com/images/829f358fdf8f41b7bdf0874818f41519/tenor.gif[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Fluury;52377744]Is this the week for the balancing Blog Post?[/QUOTE] I would be surprised if we even get it at all.

I hope it won't be the first week of July though, since I'll have tests that week and the week after that.

[QUOTE=Contra132;52377794]If we still think the update is in the first week of July- has it ever been later?- then I'd say now would be a good time to take community feedback.[/QUOTE] I'm just waiting for the update to be delayed by community feedback on some dumb change they make, and R/TF2 explodes because of having to wait longer.

[QUOTE=Fluury;52378745]Maybe we'll even get a video of Driller explaining the changes in a very monotone voice we'll call it developer renewal[/QUOTE] Will it get edited by the community like all the Jeff Kaplan videos?

[QUOTE=Fluury;52378745]Maybe we'll even get a video of Driller explaining the changes in a very monotone voice we'll call it developer renewal[/QUOTE] I always thought TF Team mockingly copying Overwatch would be hilarious. 15 min of some weird facts about TF2.

[QUOTE=Hatman;52378687]I hope it won't be the first week of July though, since I'll have tests that week and the week after that.[/QUOTE] Me too, so I'm 100% sure it will be during the first 2 weeks

It's unlikely that Valve will announce a major update on the Fourth of July. It falls on a Tuesday this year and implies a 4-day long-weekend from work. Which is why that maintenance patch on July 4th that one year was so unexpected.

[QUOTE=Fluury;52377744]Is this the week for the balancing Blog Post?[/QUOTE] I feel like we'd have had it by now if it was still happening

[QUOTE=SediSocks;52378971]I feel like we'd have had it by now if it was still happening[/QUOTE] Why so? They don't have to leave 4 weeks between the Post. Now if we aren't getting it this week, then we should start worrying/wondering if it aint happening.

[QUOTE=Fluury;52379002]Why so? They don't have to leave 4 weeks between the Post.

That's just my opinion though, the tf team works in mysterious ways.

I feel like the same can be applied here, even though it not happening would be a big bummer.

Decided to post this. Maybe will be interesting to y'all. [QUOTE=Steam Store] Updates for Counter-Strike: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, and the Source SDK 2013 Base have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when you restart the game. The major changes include: Fixed being unable to start any map in single-player mode[/QUOTE] Also, a pretty big Steam beta update, containing lots of bug fixes, some even related to Half-Life 1 and 2 mods. Does this mean something?

[QUOTE=AD/HD;52379130]Most companies would make you go to work on the 3rd, but valve may be different[/QUOTE] They've been working weekends and holidays recently, I wouldn't be surprised if they worked on the 4th too.

How long have the bots not shown up in the training mode?
