    I don't know if I've ever been that frustrated with an enemy spy in my life. I was playing medic so I got to know him very well. He wasn't even very good. He used the DR and he decloaked directly behind us constantly. If he approached disguised he was spotted immediately. But he always got a fucking facestab. ALWAYS. His ping was about 50ms lower than mine. Really good spies that get the backstab without me ever knowing they were there have my respect. If I'm getting dominated by a spy that I never see except in the kill screenshot then I can't be frustrated. I just have to do better. This guy was just total bullshit in and out. He wasn't even doing tricky corner stabs or anything. Just everytime we'd bump into each other, I was dead, regardless of our relative orientations.

    It also didn't help that despite having two soldiers and two demos, me and the other medic were only ever healing scouts and snipers and engis at our frontline. Our spy was communicating well and sapping shit like crazy but we could never get anything going, even with two ubers and a great sapping run. FUCK.

    Venting over.

    Tutorial for Crash to devour:

    You should make a special version of the map in a giant skybox container so there's zero nodraw faces. Might make for some neat effects.

    It's kind of funny how flat and boring that roof is but you never notice it in game.

    I was super stoked all weekend to finally have time today to record my RC1 change log video and I woke up today super sick and dying. Buncha bullshit.

    Have some bread.

    So one of my friends was adding me on steam and noticed steam had immortalized one of my drunken HONC nights.

    Hey guys, I know some folks in here thought that the killstreak effect on weapons wasn't easy enough to see. I found that this mod made it a lot better.

    Killstreaks are pointless to me because I'm very much a "one kill one death" type of player.

    Though I guess if you add in assists my numbers look a little better. Not much though, I'm super aggressive and die a ton because of it.

    I'll get a killstreak sometime, but for now I am fine with just stranges.

    And with Sniper I don't usually get more then 5 kills in a life before some Spy/Scout/PHLOG PYRO ASSHOLE kills me while scoped, even with my years of paranoia of such foes making me more aware of spy cloak sounds and pyro flames and the like.

    sometimes I can run a train with my pyro

    might be neat to see sparklies once in awhile

    Miss me? Find me on:

    I've got a full killstreak set on my heavy.

    Which means I'll always die immediately after getting three kills in a row.

    Saxxy Award winners are out.

    Also, update:
    An update to Team Fortress 2 has been released. The update will be applied automatically when you restart Team Fortress 2. The major changes include:

    Improved memory usage for Mac clients
    Fixed an exploit that allowed item nametags to go beyond the 40 character limit
    Fixed a bug where reflected rocket explosions from non-stock flamethrowers would cause the flame sound to loop
    tf_teamtalk is now on by default - the dead can talk to the living
    When you mute a player, the mute settings now apply to text chat as well as voice chat. If you want the previous behavior, change convar cl_mute_all_comms to 0.
    More weapon models are now loaded on demand to reduce overall memory usage
    Added "Enable/Disable Auto TeamBalance" votes
    Successful votes will enable/disable team player count balancing
    Use sv_vote_issue_autobalance_allowed to control if this vote is enabled on the server
    Votes not allowed in Mann vs. Machine, Medieval mode, Arena mode, Tournament Mode, or Training
    Updated rd_asteroid
    Increased overtime to 45 seconds
    Added more sound cues when overtime starts
    Dropped reactor cores now blink on the HUD when they are about to return
    Added latest art assets to blue base exterior

    ooh text mute, how fancy

    Marty: The future, it's where you're going?
    Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.
  • xzzyxzzy Registered User regular
    rd_asteroid looking nice.

    Shame it's a crappy map and gamemode.

  • Mr. ButtonsMr. Buttons Registered User regular
    I'm hoping that it comes along in a package of 2-3 (or 3-5) maps (including a MvM) when it gets actually released... Or, they use it and the resources as the launch for the community map workshop and we see some nice new customs using it all.
