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

[QUOTE=Gavitro;52430019]I have a feeling in my bones that it won't be this week, even though several other people here may disagree. Starting tomorrow, it will be exactly two weeks since the "Balance Changes" post came out. I believe that isn't enough time for Valve to review all the community feedback and finish balancing for Pyro/Demo/unlisted weapons.[/QUOTE] Mid July would probably be a good time to release a major update, seeing as a lot of people are usually on vacation around that time.

[QUOTE=Disco Stoobs;52429973]spengbub[/QUOTE] the card and the narrator enter my mind every time I look at MUS threads. The video may count as a reaction video and be against the rules though.

if it's tomorrow i'll be happy if it's thursday i will also be happy i hope the feedback of the (likely) clueless majority of the tf2 playerbase didn't make valve think they need to revert the DR or Ambassador changes. YER probably needs changing though. everything else is perfect. balance the rest of the banned weapons, give pyro a fuckton of awesome changes, buff all the useless weapons, and we've got ourselves some OPTIONS then 6 months to a year later, Heavy can have his update and get some new weapons and have a more in-depth set of balance changes and core class changes. the future of tf2 is bright

I'm expecting some kind of hype blog post/Day 1 of the update tomorrow or thursday, and then the rest the next day.

Like normal, I stay neutral and not remotely hyped at all. Just the way I am, and I'm perfectly content with them taking their time into making a solid update which it looks like it has potential of being. All I really hope is that they have, like the rest of us ( at least those who celebrate it ) a great fourth tomorrow.

[QUOTE=jnkns;52430377]What are the chances that we're going to get a campaign pass or a similar gimmick for this coming update?[/QUOTE] During a VNN interview, one of the devs flat-out confirmed that we'll be getting a third campaign, this time with more player choice involved.

[QUOTE=Serge Ivanov;52430241]I'm expecting some kind of hype blog post/Day 1 of the update tomorrow or thursday, and then the rest the next day.[/QUOTE] i don't think the team would be working tomorrow, unless they have the ability to update the blog remotely. it would be a cool time to post an announcement, though.

[QUOTE=IceeKnight;52430394]*gives cookie*[/QUOTE] You've lurked here longer than I've been a member and this is your first post... Bold move, I respect that level of gumption.

[QUOTE=bobpineapple;52430489]i don't think the team would be working tomorrow, unless they have the ability to update the blog remotely. it would be a cool time to post an announcement, though.[/QUOTE] I'm 100% sure the team won't be working tomorrow since tomorrow is a holiday in which public workers are required a day off. Maybe I'm wrong tho I'm stupid.

Couldnt they just let a bot post this blog ? Upload the text to the server and then let a bot post it a a given time

John, I know you lurk these threads, so please convince Dave and Eric to [i][b]delete the cancerous random crits out of this game forever[/b][/i]. That would instantly make the jungle update better than any other major update in the past.

random crits are fine in a casual setting

You can't just simply remove random crits because many weapons are based around them so you need to rebalance all of them and that just opens a can of worms.

[QUOTE=TrueMeowgi;52430764]You can't just simply remove random crits because many weapons are based around them so you need to rebalance all of them and that just opens a can of worms.[/QUOTE] Isn't this update about rebalances?

[QUOTE=TrueMeowgi;52430764]You can't just simply remove random crits because many weapons are based around them so you need to rebalance all of them and that just opens a can of worms.[/QUOTE] maybe those are the weapons of wich we didnt saw the changes yet

I feel like I am the only person that is okay with random crits. Not more than "okay" though. Edit: In a casual setting, of course.

On the tf2 wiki it says the wait for love and war was 6 months and this has been almost a year and love and war was more than one day with 5 new weapons, 6 startup themes, and 29 achievements and had a longer sfm short so this update better be this times like 2.

[QUOTE=Doodle966;52430752]Couldnt they just let a bot post this blog ? Upload the text to the server and then let a bot post it a a given time[/QUOTE] I'm sure they could (or could remotely access the blog from their home computers) but the thing is the 4th of July is not a day that American companies put out information or announce new products. Many cities have fourth of July events throughout the day and many people go out at night for a fireworks show. People spend time with their families. It's the same as Christmas, you don't see companies making big announcements on Christmas day. If you're expecting anything on the 4th your just setting yourself up for disappointment. The 5th is the earliest we're going to see anything.

No matter how you slice it, random crits create more unfun experiences than enjoyable ones, and are a relic from 2007 (where they were at least somewhat relevant) that needs to be swept up just like random damage spread. Valve already is fine with updating achievements as seen with the sandman, so random crits could be removed easily and everything having to do with them be changed as well.

[t]https://files.catbox.moe/1j2cmx.png[/t] This is Timmy. Timmy is 7 years old and loves TF2. He always does his Call-outs, leaves med-packs for burning teammates and airblasts teammates as pyros. [t]https://files.catbox.moe/wkmt0i.png[/t] This is a piano. A piano is a heavy, stationary instrument used to make beautiful, or bad music, often used as a background beat-giver in classical music. [t]https://files.catbox.moe/fi2jac.png[/t] If you don't want to have Timmy and piano to have an "accident", you better release this blog post today or tomorrow. You dont want Valve to be associated with child murder, do you? [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Shitpost" - Kiwi))[/highlight]

Also you said he airblasts teammates as Pyro so he just airblasts the piano and bam he lives.
