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.

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.
