i think the demo men are gonna get dynamite like in the trailers..
I was under the impression that the dynamite was their grenades and that we would never get grenades, not even as unlockables. I do think that we could get the Scout's nailgun and the Spy's different pistol from the first trailer as unlockables, though. A while ago I even found the models for those two (although not textured) in the game files.
The problem with the stickies to characters or scouts thing is: Would it do team damage? If not, isn't that kind of broken. If so, isn't that going to lead to a TON of griefing?
Regarding the pyro jump: What about giving his new flamethrower (because so far, the upgrades have been modifications to existing weapons, not entirely new ones) the option to right click and unleash a fireball that requires....oh...let's say 50 ammo (could be 100, I don't know...maybe 25 or 10). Not only does this do more damage, but when pointed at the ground, it acts similarly to a rocket jump or a sticky jump.
Regarding spy teleporters: I don't necessarily support THAT idea, but something that would be crazy is if a class (scout maybe?) could hack a teleporter to make it useable by the entire OPPOSING team. But there'd have to be some sort of mechanic where the engineer couldn't just instantly knock off the attachment or destroy it. There'd have to be something more to it than that. Speaking of engineers, I wonder what they'll get. Somehow, I think their buildings are going to get upgrades, like a teleporter with no charge delay or may a LVL 4 sentry....

@GreenPowerRanger: The more powerful of the 15-inch. I figure I want something that's somewhat portable but with better specs. The 17-inch one is huegs. I'm gonna be maxin' the specs. What're your specs like, and does TF2 run well on it?
yea i run the more powerful of the 15" MBP's (when i bought it) i got 4gb of ram from crucial as well, as apple rip you off for ram (its like £150 cheaper at crucial) have a GFORCE 8600M GT with 256mb ram and a 2.4 core II duo it runs really well, not quite top graphics but near enough.. the only problem is it gets mega hot... so i need to put a book under it when i play on my lap.. on a desk its fine though, just make sure there's a bitta vent space behind obviously.. everything works fine though, mighty mouse works fine with windows too other than the heat its awesome.. battery only lasts a few hours (2.30? maybe?)
oh and the mic is right next to the speakers... so if you put you hand over it while playing there's this awful squealing sound.. I'm thinking i might get a separate mic.. (thats why i sound crap on voice chat btw guys.. cant do anything bout it)
but its definitely capable of playing the game at a decent standard, and i don't get low frame rates ever despite the heat except when there's lag from the server..
hope this helps (btw you don't need to install windows.. there's a osx app called crossover games which lets you play steam games natively in osx, i dont use it but its menna be good)
I could see the demoman getting a sticky upgrade that acts as proximity mines. That would make me giddy. Or maybe a bottle that lets him breathe fire=P.
EDIT: So, has Valve announced the next class to get some love, and which is it?

i liked how someone said that if i were to have 2 medics critzkrieg me, I should be able to shoot soldiers out of the rocket launcher, and they'd be all "magets every1 is magets" and shoot everyone.
SEE? SEE EDCRAB? DO YOU SEE NOW WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO
No because you're a huge jerk and all the while you were chanting "PORN PORN PORN PORN PORN" to the tune of Flight of the Valkyries and generally just being a crazy git and distracting me

spies should get a disguise kit that will disable collision detection with the other team.
God, I hate getting detected because some douche brushes against me
@PowerRanger: Yeah, the new models have a 512 MB 8600M GT, and I'll be getting the 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo, so I guess it'll run just fine. I use headphones for gaming, though (lol portapros are sex), so I doubt I'll get any weird feedback from using the mic (except from people in the next room wondering who the fuck I'm talking to).
I think I'll be able to solve the heat issue somehow. I can prop it up on something to ventilate it underneath, or I'll just live with it.
I dunno what the Kritzkreig effect looks like, so the Soldier's just Ubered, and it's not my best work, but there you go, a Soldier launching another Soldier from his rocket launcher.
While doing this I took a snapshot and made a recruiting poster, of which i plan to make more:
In any case, I'll see bout making some more posters tomorrow. Any suggestions? So far I have "Loose Lips Sap Sentries" and, of course, "Shoot Him First!"
Not sure how you'd do that in Gmod. Also, originally I wanted the flying Soldier to be saluting, but for some reason I could not move his hand anywhere near his head. Gmod's odd like that.

Huoh, what trailer are you talking about?

e: cocks
That would suck.
Everythings so different. Only sniper and pyro seem to be the same. Wtf was that thing the scout was wielding.

The sniper's smg.
A nailgun.
What? There's a trailer? Where?
EDIT: So, has Valve announced the next class to get some love, and which is it?
Resident 8bitdo expert.
Resident hybrid/flap cover expert.
And instead gave me a machete that the god themselves had infused with the vengence of snipers everywhere.
I had more kukri kills than headshots. What the hell.
Sir yes sir!

Old trailers.

me too, but i must study
Flattered but spoken for.
In any case, I'll see bout making some more posters tomorrow. Any suggestions? So far I have "Loose Lips Sap Sentries" and, of course, "Shoot Him First!"
ahaha clever
yeah, were gonna go on a pub, and try and kill an entire team.
Not sure how you'd do that in Gmod. Also, originally I wanted the flying Soldier to be saluting, but for some reason I could not move his hand anywhere near his head. Gmod's odd like that.
I don't get it?
