I was complaining about the "no sentryguns on sudden death" mod that I experienced (I still don't remember if it was a pub or your server, I couldn't read the MotD because of my old TV's crappy resolution), and said something like, "If that's what the admins want, then oh well".
So I added code for setting up weapon specific scripts to my site in my sig. They're really fucking big, and I spent a lot of time refactoring them and then testing them to make sure they worked, so enjoy.

Would definitely be cool, yeah. I've got a few new things that could use a solid playtest session. (All the maps I've been posting the last couple of days, plus a new build of Vector with a detailed 3-1 and a redone set of entrances to the point of 3-2 (thanks to feedback from the previous playtest, still gotta upload it to the content server).)
Hopefully a bit later in the evening, since I'll be in class for a while.

Do we have that KoTH map that was made on PA on the HonC? I'd like to try it.

gameplay aside, the graphical style they chose to you... looks like shit. it's just blahh, it bother me terribly. i guess maybe if i understood the context behind the cartoon look they're going for...? was team fortress a comic? did it have some comic book version story that took place between TF and TF2? i can't really understand why people are so excited about this game - the first TF was alright, but it couldn't compare to any of the other good Half Life mods, like, CS.
As a long time TFCer i feel like they have really taken away from the core of what tfc used to be, by throwing in quirky graphics and removing grenades (especially concs) plus the other really odd features (the healing shield thing ) I feel a bit let down, luckily there is fortress forever which i think will be truer to tfc as I value it.
What a coincidence that the beta for tf2 just happens to fall on the release date of FF though?
I didn't even know they were bringing back the greatest TFC map ever.. Dustbowl*. Wow that makes me even more excited.
* - actually hunted probably gave me more enjoyment but nobody plays or runs it anymore. Kali Hunted Server was ftw back in the day.
Engineers can detonate their constructions, but they do no damage. Leaving dispensers as "ghetto detpacks", so to speak, is no longer viable. The detonate feature is there solely for relocating constructions or removing them if an opponent is using them to his advantage.
This was confirmed, in no uncertain terms, by Valve employee Adrian Finiol, on the SomethingAwful forums.
Dang it. They removed one of the coolest parts of the Engineer.
You know, back when TFC first came out, TF veterans said VALVe only likes the HWGuy, and sadly I have to start to wonder. No grenades to kill him--no concs to mess up his aim or get by him, no EMPs--and he'll always be in places where snipers can't get to him. Add in a class combo apparently designed entirely for him--the medic's invulnerability--and the least interesting class in the game looks like he might be even more unbalanced than he was in TFC.
Before anyone says "he wasn't unbalanced," keep in mind that the HWGuy is the only class leagues have found necessary to limit to one (or two, on some maps) for the past... five years, I guess. Maybe six. There was a period when Engineers were limited to two, but that passed quickly after they realized nobody ever runs more than two on defense due to the spy problem, and people often use Engie on O.
I just hope the damn heavy isn't as powerful as he looks in the gameplay videos

Man, I went back to look at one of the pre-beta threads, and it was 20 pages of "NO GRENADES VALVE HATES US" and then Meet the Heavy came out and everyone shut up. I have to ask, having never played any other FPS, let alone TFC before- Was losing the grenades actually that much of a big deal? Is TF2 better without them? Or is this a discussion that Should Not Be Brought Up?
I haven't played TFC so I'm no expert, but I can completely understand the argument that conc jumping, etc, creates a huge barrier to higher level play.

well it is just that no one could imagine a team fortress game without it, every incarnation had embraced grenades totally
at first no one could think how medics and scouts would be worth anything without conc jumps, how would you take down sentries without nail or mirv nades, etc
our little minds couldn't comprehend how good you could make a game without grenades
personally, the one change that really made TF2 into the game it is now is the new way medic works

Hi. My name is -joe.

You have reason to retro-ban most of us
Hi, -joe! Remember your first post in the TF2 forums?

Team Fortress 2: Retro Abloo bloo
Ahh, the days before the syringegun kill rate was nerfed all to hell, when you could sit in spawn for three minutes and then kill everything.
And then there was the Sniper vs Engy Dustbowl round. The engies won.
