Look at this screenshot that I made few hours ago. See anything strange?

What is with these cakes, balloons and other birthday stuff?

Check the server again, it probably has a birthday mod. They had those in TFC also with Kazoos going and everything. I was like wtf at first, but it was kinda amusing.

Yea I just joined one like that too. Pretty odd. I remember when the TFC used to do that at christmas etc. Used to add something to the game.

Try killing a heavy; do burgers fly out of him instead of body parts?

I think I am safe to say, your the only person on the planet to ever type that phrase out.I cant stop laughing at it. Must be too late or something.

For sprays, follow this guide. Worked like a charm for my transparent spray.?

You can have transparency without going through all that, you dont even have to use VTFEdit. Using Paint.net just get your image and cut out the background and save it as an uncompressed 32-bit .tga file. Open up TF2 and import the spreay in the options -> multiplayer.

I'd like to see a longer range sentry, maybe have a longer range for each upgrade.

Edit: Today is TF's birthday, hence why the servers have party mode.

The games been out a year already? :|

Time flies.

Engineers next? :woot:

My favourite class. Clocked up 13 hours with that.

What do you guys see the updates to be? I cant really think of anything else to add to the engineer. Then again it could be anything. I someone has posted that the heavy was going to get a sandwich for a weapon replacement weeks ago, they would have been laughed off. So anythings possible :p

I actually thought it was cool in TFC how an engineers wrench added armour at the expense of wrench "ammo" - Something was satisfying about having a purpose to run around whacking your team mates :laugh:

Now I know armour has been taken out of TF2, but maybe a wrench that can add armour again (even temporarily, aka it starts ticking down after the engineer stops hitting)?

Doubt it very much though, like the Pyro +50HP, I think people would feel that was imbalanced. However I guess if every class could be "charged" with armour it may come across as fairer?

Probably a new level SG - Longer range but less powerful?

Faster charging, but less "health" teleporter?

Maybe something to replace the hand gun, it's pretty dire.

My bets are on a Wrench that makes things build and upgrade faster, but does 25/50% less damage.

It would help encourage offensive engineers while making spies more deadly, as most engineers will try and wrench a spy rather than switch to thier shotgun.

I think we can expect a totally different weapon to replace the shotgun if the Flaregun and Sandvich are anything to go by, what they'll do with the Pistol i'm not sure, maybe another pistol that leeches the victims ammo on hit and gives the engineer a small amount of metal?

The classes chosen so far have been Support->Offence->Defence so i think we'll probably be seeing the Spy get his unlocks next, with maybe a homage to the guy that created the Spy hoax page.

For the engineer perhaps a flame turret? Or even a new item altogether to build.

The spy I think should get his tranquilliser gun back, that was fun! :D. But for me, some special fireproof cloak. We all know how annoying it is to get into the enemy base and some pyro blasts you for a spy check and you set alight. Or a longer lasting cloak but you receive nothing but crits if you are hit while cloaked.

The possibilities are endless.

    • Well I've done a grand total of nothing, and it now clocks between 2010mhz and 1995mhz (stock is 1710mhz) and hovers around 80c, warmer than it used to, but tolerable clocks seem to have returned. Thanks for all the advice on this thread. Will review the evidence and make a choice.

    • I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.
