#72 cp_glassworks (5cp) in Map Discussion

It's perhaps a dumb question, but why do you say the map is specifically made for highlander? From what I see it could be a great 6s map too, i'm interested in your design choices and why you think it's more HL focused.

#802 The Gun Mettle Update in TF2 General Discussion
obe_TwiggyI've yet to test it in lobbies, but the new vaccinator feels unusable in pubs. The ubercharge change for it is very good, but it needs 40 seconds to build a 25% mini charge on an overhealed target. 40 FREAKIN SECONDS!!

Previously you had ubers but no overheal, even if nobody cared about building. Now you have no overheal and no ubers. It might still work in comp because players build, but in pubs it's a pain :(

IMO it needs something less drastic regarding uber building rate.

Yeah, I think it's something like 2 vacc bars = a full ubercharge (medigun) or so. It's useless right now.

Ok i tested it in lobbies, the lack of building on overheal is way less noticeable. I still got the amout of uber pops i got pre patch. Big difference is arriving to mid with 2 charges instead of 4, and floating around with 1 or 2 charges max instead of 3/4.

But I still stand, it's awful in pubs.

#15 new convars in gun mettle in TF2 General Discussion
aierawe should actually turn off xray in competitive as it can totally ruin spy plays, tonight in scrims the enemy team tried one against us and I knew instantly because i saw outlines of a scout on mid walking towards second despite my team barely pushing out of last

even the health bars could be an issue in that case :(

so yeah these features should be only for spectators.

On the other hand, it just requires spies to not disguise until they are really infiltrating and in believeable positions

I dont think it's listed yet, but there is still flaws with stickyjumping, especially crouch dets and stickies on walls.

#198 Gun Mettle Bugs in TF2 General Discussion

On spectator tournament HUD, there is no display of the overheal in the health bars above players heads, there is no outlines(by default at least, is there a command?) and the health numbers are not centered.

Also when one gets killed the target id of your killer doesnt display a number for the health left.

Not really a bug, but more like a missing feature.

#128 TF2 update for late 7/3/15 (7/4/15 UTC) in TF2 General Discussion
CondoMSideshowWell of course you time the uber from when he spawns + 45 seconds - the time left in the medigun. It doesn't matter when he picks it up - you can assume they picked it up straight away. If you're right then they have the max uber possible, if you're wrong then you've overestimated their uber and you won't get caught by it anyway. I don't get it, what's so hard?Now that's just repeating what I was trying to say in my first post. Let me try to explain better why this is a bad thing.

This type of uncertainty promotes passive play and adds to the stalemate.
As in, if you start counting given that they picked it up straight away you're assuming the worst case scenario whereas they will have a massive uber advantage. This would normally encourage a team to play far back and passive. As opposed to now where you would be more likely to try and dry-push, hold more aggressive, or contest their push as you are always able to know when exactly they have their uber. That type of certainty in information should increase depth and usually liven the game more up as teams should be more keen on going for plays according to that information (i.e. dry pushing because you know for sure they dont have their uber yet, or pushing as soon as you get your uber because you know for sure that they wont have theirs in time, or back out earlier because you know for sure they have their uber before you do).
Making that information be iffy and unsure should make high level games be played a lot more safe and passive, which is the exact type of thing we should be discouraging as it only serves to slow the game down.

Assuming you count uber according to the worst case scenario you still have a good idea of when they get it. It still opens up windows where you can choose to push and kill their med before he gets charged.

Either you kill their med your own survives you've won,
either both meds die which is good for you since you didnt have uber advantage to start with,
either they pop and you lose players/your med and lose a capture point,
either your team pussies out and respects the other team's advantage, and then still risks to lose said capture point and med.

In half of the cases the team with uber advantage has actually more to lose than the team without.

This new array of choices does not render medic less fun or interesting to me.

#1473 HUD editing: short questions, quick answers in Customization

Hello, i'm trying to get a HUD crosshair to work in the default TF2 Hud. what i've done (that doesnt work) is to copy from my current hud the .ttf file, modify clientscheme.res and hudplayerclass.res. i got these two files from tf2_misc_dir.vpk and i put all of this in custom.

Can someone tell me what i missed?

For the short circuit, there is no animation played for the ALT fire despite it having a distinctive sound.

Also, the vaccinator doesnt build uber at full speed in warm up (in pubs)

I had an issue when using kritzkrieg it would display the normal medigun viewmodel but the kritzkrieg beam

Almost all of the changes sound good it's amazing!

Very interested to see a 3CP map too or try it in a cup if it's nice!

So many weapons could be unbanned now, that's a change permzilla is back

#66 Razer Arena adds TF2 in TF2 General Discussion

It would be cool to play cups where entry fees would be items and then reward the winners with it, like on saloon.tf
