Yup, the 10-15 spwn time is just right. I definitely use that notion tactically, to break up rushes.

And as for spawn killing, I've always had the problem with pyros hiding and flaming upon exit, which was always a pain in the ass because I switch to the Medigun immediately to start charging whomever, and am really caught off guard.

Just had a GREAT soldier round on Gravelpit (while on red)......25 kills and 5 dominations in 1 life....total of 3k dmg (my previous best was 2.3k as pyro but nowhere near that amount of kills). Lasted the entire time BLU has on Gravelpit including the extra time from capping A, without dying. I ended the round 28-0....joined late and got 3 points when my team was on BLU before it ended all without dying.

Funny thing is I only have 22.7 hours as soldier....chances are thats the best I'll ever do as soldier, but it blows the most kills and dominations I have ever had before (as a scout main) out of the water.

I apologize if this has already been discussed in this thread. I just don't feel like digging thru 151 pages. ;)

When I try to install the game, it completes without problem. When I log into Steam, it starts redownloading the game.

I first thought it was just my discs that sucked, but I used a different pair and it's redownloading again.

Has something changed recently? I remember installing it on my Mac a few weeks back (via CrossOver which sucks) and it worked fine.

Any help in the next 20 minutes before it gets done dl'ing, is appreciated. :)

New update coming: Classless Update :D

Can't wait, 18 new hats :) Maybe now I'll get one!

Yeah, youll get the one you need the least. :p

Installing from disc? You sure it isnt just updating? There has been lots of stuff added since those discs were printed. Atleast id think that.

Yeah, I have the 2 DVD install discs.

It's downloading at 632KB/s, at 62%, and been going for about 15 minutes now.

If it's an update, it must be huge. haha

Doesn't matter how many new hats they add if they don't make a way for us to get them other than RNG. In fact, the more they add (without changing the drop rate) the less chance there is you'll get the one you want. :pinch:

RNG = Random Number Generator

Yup, there is a higher chance of getting A hat (assuming the chance to get a hat is rolled separately and not 0.05% or change to get a single hat each roll) with more hats, but a lower chance of getting a specific hat you want. I personally think they will reveal the trading system with this update, that way you CAN trade for the hats you want. Why else would they add 18 new hats if people are going to complain about the RNG and no way to trade for a hat they want. Then again you could say the same thing about the original hats and RNG.....

I am personally hoping for the trade system and a way to influence the RNG (such as more play-time as one class, or your current class even, gives you a higher chance of getting a hat belonging to that class). Seeing as they still have 3 days of updates (assuming it stays on schedule with other non-dual class updates) they still have 3 major things to announce (major as in a new game mode, or a bunch of new items, or a trade system or influence system).

They obviously have lots of new content if they are doing a weekly (assuming it follows the other large updates) reveal for an update that contains NO class updates (if they aren't hiding a class update, that is).

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
