Be warned, I pwn.

I'll maybe be on tonight, if I ain't going out on the drink and hunt for women. Pretty skint and I need to pay for a leeds ticket soon. I notice your off to T, I've been the last 3 years and am giving it a miss for leeds this year.

Nah just a ticket to go to leeds... :rofl:

Yeah man, leeds festival. Cool stuff (Y)

If you want low pings, play on local servers. I always go on GameArena servers.

Just then I finally got both medic and pyro's extra weapons.

BestGN, Internode and GameArena are all good.

I prefer to stay away from the servers with instant respawn though, can make it hard to progress into a base (you kill a guy, by the time you get to the top of the stairs you're on, he's respawned and is shooting at you again)

Probably another reason why they put health pack and ammo on top of the spiral ramps.

  • 3 weeks later...

The Medic update/achievements were released on April 29th

The Pyro update/achievements were released on June 19th.

I am guessing the Heavy update/achievements will be due sometime around August 24th (going on a rough average).

Just thought I'd create this topic and throw it out there for discussion :p

so any news on what the updates are? :p i know the pyro additions got me to start using pyro again. the flare gun is a blast. here's hoping to interesting upgrades for the heavy!

and speaking of tf2 i'm refreshing my install right now :/ damn thing kept validating the files and wouldn't launch the game.... so annoying.

I want my engineer achievements. :(

I think it will be some time until we get engineer achievements because, frankly speaking, they're very powerful. Granted, a good Spy can take them down but put a Pyro there who fires a blast at anyone who comes near a sentry and you're pretty much covered. And if you have a lot of engineers who build a cluster of sentries at one point and Dispensers nearby them to replenish and then build Teleporters around key areas in the map, you have one hell of a defensive strategy.

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
