    We thought it was a lie too, but the GPS is law.

    Also we're making a pit stop at carnages old house he grew up in, but its on the way.

    Also tf2 is a good game and... Hats.

    Edit: oh and were almost near Albany, but I think our GPS is trying to get is raped because it keeps taking us down creepy foggy roads.

    If you see anyone with a giant, pyramid-shaped mask on go the other way.

    This may or may not still apply at PAX.

    We changed our route and took about an hour off our time.

    645 should be good. Any chance we can swing by con center to stop by the will call center tonight before 8? I heard it was open, carnages tickets never came.

    New update, with ridiculous weapons! The spy now has a knife that absorbs all its target health on a backstab, and the soldier and demo get a katana which can't be unequipped until you kill somebody, restores all of your health on a kill, and one-hit kills other people wielding a katana.

    Also the medic has a geisha hair hat now.

    Where did you get the weapon descriptions?

    EDIT: Nevermind, found it on the store.

    Other than the Katana they don't actually sound that great. Loving the hats though.

    I'm thinking the "set style" thing is going to apply to painted hats, since the looks of how the paint was applied changed and people were suggesting that you choose the look of the hat.

    Which would be awesome because I could have my pure white top hat again.

    "Surely they will never release a hair hat for the Medic," I said.

    "I suppose I shall simply use this rare pink paint on another one of the hair hats I have," I said.

    "Yes, this is definitely a wise course of action," I said.

    fuuuuuuuuuuuck

    Awesome!


    ..and apparently the reason the server kept crashing was that Valve goofed and fall damage deaths were crashing servers. They just added a tiny little bug fix to get rid of it and now the servers need to be fixed again I guess.

    Testing shows that the Kunai simply gives you a 180 health overheal, regardless of who you stab.

    Slight bugfix patch just dropped.
    Team Fortress 2
    - Fixed players not being able to fire their weapons immediately after spawning.
    - Fixed the decapitation counters not being displayed for some weapons.
    - Fixed the revenge crit label not being localized correctly.
    - Fixed the Demoman not using the correct animations for some of his weapons.
    - Fixed the new Shogun hats not being grayed out when paint is being used.
    - Fixed players getting a health bonus based on the weapon they're currently holding instead of the weapon that dealt the killing blow.
    - Updated Cp_Yukon
    - Fixed a hole in the map.

    Beta got updated again, too. Nothing major in the fixes that I saw, although it looks like there's going to be a end-of-map vote built in as a cvar.
    --- March 11, 2011 ---


    Maps:

    * koth_badlands
    o Added support for offline practice
    o Fixed a case where players could easily fire into spawn
    * cp_yukon
    o Fixed a hole in the map



    General:

    * Painted items are now more integrated with the game's lighting
    * First-pass support for Paint in DX8
    * Fixed a bug with health-on-kill weapons where players were gaining health if such a weapon was active, but did not cause the death.
    * Replay:
    o Fixed ‘save all’ crash in replay browser
    o Fixed ‘save movies now, then quit’ crash
    * Coaching:
    o The coach is now tethered to the student, so that they cannot get too far
    o Added the distance to student in coach GUI
    o Coach now has the same PVS as the student
    o When the student respawns, the coach warps back to student
    o Added an option to "like" coach by pressing F9.
    * Training:
    o Fixed issues in Spy training
    * Voting:
    o Tuning pass on CallVote cooldowns/timers:
    + Increased the cooldown before a player can call another vote
    + Increased the cooldown before a failed vote can be resubmitted
    o The CallVote screen now hides issues the server has disabled
    o Increased the percentage of players required to pass a vote
    o Kick issue: the player calling the vote no longer appears as an option in the Kick issue parameters list
    o Temporarily disabled Kick and Changelevel
    o Enabled nextlevel_choicesmode by default (to test it)
    + The server will automatically ask players to select the nextlevel shortly before the current map is over

    If you've got metal to burn, you could always go the slot token roulette. (loltokens)

    Yeah, it's not guaranteed, but it's a option for now.

    So, for instance, the Fan would be a Scout Token (Three Scout weapons) + a Melee Token (three melee weapons) + a Scrap Metal. Would give you a 1 in 6 chance of getting it.

    3. Collect all eight items through in-game item drops or crafting. (You: "SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE! I'M HAVING A HEART ATTACK! FROM JOY!")

    So by this they just mean random crafts? That's pretty dumb, they've been doing specific blueprints for quite a while now, why did they stop?

    I'm pretty fond of the new weapons. With the conch and the katana, the Soldier is now capable of fielding a loadout that heals him through every weapon, which is entertaining. It's good to finally have a useful function on a Scout weapon, plus a true humiliation weapon at something like 2-3 HP per slap. Haven't used the kunai yet, but weaker Spies is always a good thing (ha ha ha).
