Speaking of mods, last night I tried playing TF2 dodgeball on a server. Haven't had this much fun in quite a while.

Game mode is two teams full of only pyros trying to compression blast homing crit rockets and nukes at each other.

With regards to PropHunt, it's okay. Kinda humourous at first, but it dies off when you're up against people who knows the maps off the top of their heads. In addition, the mod's a private mod and thus there are only a handful of servers - 3 of them are GamingMasters.co.uk's servers (which give me terrible ping), and one in the US which is always maxxed out.

edit: There's only one server for TF2 dodgeball. Server IP is 208.43.4.58:27015

Lol, I was playing dodgeball last night, really fun.

What Steam name do you use? Since there's only one server we might have collided heads last night. :p

LOL that looks a lot of fun. I could stick it on my clan's server if anyone in the UK fancies playing. It's only a 14 man server but big enough for some dodgeball :p

Unfortunately it's a private mod, so I highly doubt the same guy who wrote the mod would allow it to be used outside his own server.

Drop And Give Me Terror!

October 29, 2009 - The Soldier

At ease, you wastes of skin. The Powers That Be have commanded me to write another short missive?I'm told it will be broadcast on some manner of punch-card tube machine and read by the thin, stupid youth of today, who evidently ignored my past instructions to stop wasting their lives and do more push-ups.

When I inquired what this missive should contain, I was instructed only that it had something to do with an upcoming pagan moon worship festival, and that it should be "terrifying". Evidently, the youth of today enjoy being scared. Why? Because you don't know what real fear is. Get out a pen and write this in your poem books: I have personally killed 6,078 men in cold blood while looking them in the eye; jumped on 1,455 live grenades; and stuffed fourteen feet of my own intestine back into my stomach. If that doesn't scare you out of your frilly pink leotards, guess what: You are an idiot and you hate America. The next time you visit your grandfather, take out your ipoot headbuds, pull up your goddamn pants, and ask him what a war is. If you're not standing in a puddle of your own Jarate by the time he's finished talking, you should ask him to start over, because you weren't paying attention.

So listen up! An update will arrive later today. There will be ghosts! There will be exploding pumpkins! You will receive achievements and candy prizes! And by God you will be frightened by it or I will give you something to be frightened about!

This should be fun.

I got most of the achievements in normal play, but ended up just getting a guy to stand there to get the Gibus.

I dominated one guy with it, but right before that happened he unequipped it :rolleyes:

Edit: Oh yeah, the costume one was bugged for me, had to kill 3 spies for it to register.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
