The new level 3 dispenser looks cool with that heartbeat thing on the top.

Upgraded health bubbles= (Y). Anyone that's really hurt has an intensely red health bubble.

More spanner banging for the engie :( and easily destroyed by a demouber.

Someone on the server I played on last night said stickies are now destructible by small projectiles. Haven't verified it yet, but if that's true it would be at least possible to stop demomen from hiding behind corners and taking out buildings in one swoop.

edit: Update log says:

The Engineer's teleporters can now be upgraded to level three. It will recharge faster the higher level it is

The Engineer's dispensers can now be upgraded to level three. It will give out metal and heal faster as it is upgraded

Spies will be able to recharge their cloaking ability by picking up ammo off of the ground or from health cabinets

Some changes to the second part of the first stage of Goldrush to give the attackers more of an advantage

Any weapons that fire bullets (shotguns, sniper's machine gun, heavy's minigun, etc.) can now break apart the Demoman's stickybombs

The icon on the HUD for a person calling for Medic will now give more information to the medic (if the target is low on health, on fire, etc.)

Added an achievement tracker that will allow people to choose specific achievements that they are trying to get

There is now a custom icon for death messages when the player was killed from a critical hit

Added a new particle effect for when a player enters the water

Added smoke to the feet of a rocket jumping soldier

Players will now have some particles swirling around them so other players can see when they are overhealed

Awesome (Y)

This will reignite my TF2 fever no doubt :laugh:

I think I've put well over 200 hours into it :|

I have almost 160 hours as Demoman alone :|

That number would easily exceed 200 had I not stopped playing it months ago, but I've been wrapped up in my 360. Soldier + Demo for me would be over 225 :|

*adds up hours in stats*

That's all I've done?

DAMN.

Need to get playing, thought it was a bit more :laugh:

Yeah I've played a fair bit of Demoman (not 160 hours though :p), breaks down like this

My longest life as Demoman is mucked up though :laugh: Been like that for months...

Yep, there's an invisible dispenser parented to the bomb cart, but it's not immune from upgrading.

i've seen worse bugs with the cart :p a game i was in few days ago had the cart moving by itself. i was on the red team and even having people next to the cart wouldn't stop it :|

No no, those are MY stats :laugh:

So there's a slight bug with the update...

:rofl: That's awesome. Level 4 dispenser anyone?

edit: originally I thought someone built a dispenser on the cart, but looking at it a second time... you're saying the glitch is the cart's 'dispenser' is upgradeable.

yes spies can be seen when over charged just like they could after teleporting before an update removed that.

Oh, that explains the 'glitch' one of the server's players was pointing out.

About spies: Last night on 2fort I saw one of the health beams point upwards on the dispenser. I was staring at it for about ten seconds when I suspected a spy camping on top of it... and it was! I gave him a nice little pipebomb to play with :laugh: This guy tried it a second time before giving up. With the dispenser he can stay invisible forever, unless someone realizes there's something odd about one of the health beams.

...

One of the limitations of Source is, you can't place certain objects on moving surfaces, like pipebombs or buildables, if you do place a buildable on a moving surface, it stays still, which can lead to sentries floating in space.

Which is hilarious when you build a sentry on the train in well, and people have no idea where they're getting shot from.

Edit: It's really just a limitation because nobody's fixed it yet, if Valve had a need for it it'd be fixed quite quickly, kinda like the deformable terrain.

I despise spies as is... let the beams stay for balancing purposes :p

      Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Save 44% on Intuit QuickBooks Desktop Pro Plus 2024 (1 User for 1-Year)

      By fingletmein · Posted

      Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Figure 8 Dash · Posted

      Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
