TF2 Update discussion

[Mulholland]

Came across this video and had to share it. It's a ten minute long last stand on the final point of Goldrush, set to some over-the-top action movie style music from COD4, and it's completely epic:

Make sure you watch the last minute or so, the climax is the best part.

That was an very well done video and have to admit that that was a pretty epic save at the end. I'm always amazed at what people can throw together with recording tools and source TV.

Awesome vid. Some very good skill all around, and pretty slick editing.
Thanks for the link.

In case you missed it the Scout update is coming next week.

You can check out the update with its new Scout weapons, achievements, and maps here

Bonk

So now the scout is going to be more hyper with an energy drink. I thought he was already peppy enough.

 

[Dachs]

Get practice killing scouts now before the rush. Because the only good scout is a dead scout. Unless it's Simon and he's on your team.

I've been practicing sniper for the last two weeks to be able to blow those critters out of the air.

 

[azzaman333]

They'll still burn. Mwahahahaha.

 

[sirtommygunn]

Anybody else think the scattergun looks a little different on the energy drink page?

 

[Maniacal]

I look forward to culling scouts with Natascha.

Don't care much about the two maps, junction is okay but boring for some reason, and I don't play Arena although that map looks neat.

 

[GenMarshall]

They'll still burn. Mwahahahaha.

Oh so true

They added descriptions to all the achievements. Apparently there is a weapon called the Force-A-Nature that has a knockback. And apparently you can steal the Heavy's Sandvich. And the Scouts "Pyromancer" endurance style achievement is called Race for the Pennant, and requires you to run 25km.

 

[Maniacal]

Looks like you can also hit back baseballs with your bat. Possible push people with your bat too.

I wonder if Fastlane is actually playable now

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

I came back from work hoping to see that today's unveiling would be a new game mode or weapon. I was quite disappointed.

I predict Monday for weapon, Tuesday for game mode.

 

[azzaman333]

I like this Egypt map. A bit of visual variety ftw.

 

[Maniacal]

I'd forgotton about Egypt, always like it We havn't played it in ages though. Or at least not since November/December.

This is in large part because it's a bit balanced to the defense. Played it twice yesterday I think because of people wondering about what the new map was like.

 

[Maniacal]

Huh, I had plenty of games of Egypt where Blue won.

 

[Dachs]

Hey, look, scout update is here!

 

[War Bear]

Downloading slowly but surely...

So spies can cycle what weapon they appear to be holding now, by hitting the "last disguise used" key. I wonder if it also cycles through unlocks.
