Not to be a dick, but any chance that when you guys are posting the multiple images of gmod stuff, can you spoiler it?
When I'm on break at work and skimming this thread, I get weird looks sometimes when they see the images. And it's hard to scroll past quickly when it's half a page long. :P
It's sad that no server does full rotation anymore because look at all the decent maps: badlands, dustbowl, fastlane, granary, gravel pit, steel, well, 2fort, badwater, goldrush.
Great variety.
Hate servers today.
Most servers I see are 24/7 MAP X FAST SPAWN HLSTATS.
And I actually see a lot of 24/6 Arena maps, which I find to be surprising.
I was pretty excited to find someone had done the tf2 equivalent to dm_17, everyone's favourite q3 map. In fact there's a dedicated european server, just for that level, soldier only, unlimited rockets, no reloads what have you. It's great fun and soldier practice.
When i have a nemesis or am dominating someone their icon goes above their heads even if they are a clocked spy (so all i see is the icon moving through the air), is this normal?

So I've heard the "Valve once said they were against taking control from the player!" claim often in Sandman-discussions, but I'm quite sure they've never said it. If anyone could find the original source, please link it. Until then, please don't use that "quote" unless you can provide a link to valve saying it, as I believe they've never said it.
The closest thing to it I've been able to find was in the HL2 commentary, and that was about taking player control away during cutscenes - and had nothing to do with multiplayer gaming.
In other news; according to an email correspondence between Robin Walker and some dude from somethingawful, they're "probably" going to change the ways weapons are unlocked by the next update pack.
I guess its a good thing, since people like me who enjoy slowly unlocking through achievements are pretty rare these days it seems. Oh well, at least it'll hopefully stop the stupid unlockables discussion.
4 months from now:
"omg why dont they make me work for weapons? why add achievements if i dont get anything for them?"
"dude u have such an entitlement complex"

Alternatively, I often see a cloaked spy's party hat when party mode is on.
When you're dominating somebody you shouldn't see an icon no matter what.
And no that is not normal, cloaked spies lose the icon until they look like the enemy spy again.
especially through the gimp mask.
i've seen party hats floating around randomly sometimes. i sat and watched one for a good 20 seconds just float around randomly and then suddenly fall to the ground and roll around the corner. it was pretty strange
After using the flaregun for quite a bit, I found myself on well with a flaregun and axetinguisher trying to kill a scout under water. I figured I don't have combined fire yet, so I'd switch to the shotgun.
OH GOD I HATE THE SHOTGUN SO MUCH IT'S SO WEAK AT LONG RANGE AND BORING AS HELL
As soon as I get combined fire I'm putting that bastard away. I rather swap my axetinguisher.

You need to break the habit of having a long range weapon as a Pyro, the shotgun makes your ambushing massively better. I'm especially a fan of the airblast->shotgun midair combo.

I bet you're the kind of person that picks the sandvich over the shotgun as well. Pitiful.

I am actually a terrible ambusher. I always just go head on or flank from the side. If I wanted to ambush I'd play spy. Therefore I pretty much don't need the backburner or shotgun.

I heard there was a semi-official rule about only having one sentry on 2fort.

I got a great team stab with Garthor, he F-N' gunned a pyro into my shiv.
I also got a lot of other great team stabs. The entire fucking team was staring at the sentry. THE ENTIRE FUCKING TEAM!!! xD

It's true, I find it more useful.
