Just popping in tonight to say that this week's HoNC night was one of the best I've been to in a really long time. Thanks for the great games, everyone.
For those who didn't catch it:
Kupi and I were sniping next to each other. Suddenly Kupi demands that heal him. I turn to see him standing there staring at me, in the middle of the battlefield, still insisting that I heal him. We stared at each other for a few seconds, and all I can think to do is pull out my Jarate. @xzzy runs up and blows him away as scout before I could do anything with it. xzzy then goes "what the fuck were you snipers doing just staring at each other?"

Man, I know we like to rag on competitive players a lot around here, but I think I'd really enjoy having a chance to go a few rounds with those guys with a PA team, even on just a casual basis. We could be like Crash's team or something, and use his tag.
So my goal is to update Trainsawlaser by this Friday so we can test it out at least once before TF2Maps annual April Fools day event.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for changes? I still won't be able to add much craziness, but I might be able to squeak a bit in after I do my audio optimization nail-in-dick work.
You still need to put in an event where all the bosses fight while there is a mini-train storm, and it ends with the gigantic train. OR if you're too much of a sissy for that, then you can just set the trains on fire.
I feel like that would drag on for soooo long though. Kilgore is at the extreme end of the time frame (like a minute or so out on the field) and I can always sense people getting annoyed that they still can't capture near the end of it.
Actually, I might increase his movement speed. Good idea, Pablo.
Two things come to mind:
1) Drop a train on the decks near the acid kool-aid. Rifle snipers are way too safe there.
2) If you want to give the middle finger to engineers once and for all, extend the nobuilds to the ramps leading up to the point, or at the very least at the lip. Covering the point is one thing, but covering the point and all angles of approach except that second-floor balcony in the building is quite another.
My favorite musical instrument is the air-raid siren.
Honestly I think I know exactly how to do that, I just didn't want to make it a "everyone focus fire on these things" that I have to try to balance out for skilled and unskilled servers and they end up becoming a chore on the map rather than there goofy shenanigans that they are now.
Plus I don't want to have to record any new lines and that would definitely need some "on death" clips.
Oh god I just had such a hilariously bad idea for a joke map I might try to shit out in time for April Fools, depending on how long Trainsawlaser takes this week...
I don't want to spoil anything, but can anyone recommend me some of the lamest most stereotypical freak out dub step music? A few examples would be helpful...

For reasons.
Any idea that involves stupid dubstep is an idea I'm all the way behind. Some suggestions.
Literally anything by Skrillex.
Nero might have some good stuff.
Flux Pavilion has some stuff that could work. Bass Canon may be to on the nose, but boy it's fun.

It's like.. I have absolutely nothing to do.
Logic has no power here.
@Crash Heal me. Crash, heal me! HEAL ME, CRASH!
Top 5 most confusing moment in TF2.

I'm still so confused.
It's still pretty rough.. floating signs, bad detailing, but I think the layout is coming together for a nice pub-friendly 5cp map.
It'll probably take about 30 seconds for you guys to find some horrible imbalance.

If I can pull it off.
(not dub step, but close enough maybe)
Or, this thing that I posted a while back:
This one's a classic. Start about a minute in:

This site is full of royalty free stuff. The very first one on the list seems promising.
Oh.. I guess I should work on trainsawlaser too.
