Thirty teams already! Looks like it'll be an exciting start.

It's week 8 for a reason! If playtesting elsewhere results in it being a poor map, it can be switched up.

you're too quick! an announcement will be coming soon

here is one i just typed up, it should cover everything:

edit: added widowmaker, didn't see that first time through

just remove the line

the hours that show up in your library / on your main profile page are the time you've had team fortress 2 open. the hours that show up when you go into your stats is the sum of the hours of playtime you have on each class. so when you reset that playtime count, your total stats hours gets reset as well

also, the playtime on each class can be inaccurate, because when i was at 499 hours for soldier, i went to pub to get 500 and ended up pubbing for 3 hours before it hit 500 on the stats screen (i.e. went up less than 30 minutes on maps with 30 minute time limits)

this post in the other thread explained it well:

gmang fixed it by updating his tf_english.txt, so your options are
a) fix your tf_english.txt file yourself
b) wait for brosel to update his hud (does he? i dont know if thats an upkept hud)
c) remove your tf_english.txt file so the game uses the default one

if you choose c since it is an immediate solution, the problems you'd experience if any would be minor

it should, because that is what i've used for months

edit: oh, i read it and it's the script for ctapping with anti-stick, not jumping out of crouch. my bad

your script seems to be missing something. even though people have -fragged #2, he's right - you don't call the checkjump and checkcrouch aliases in that script. here is the one that i came up with if you want to modify yours or just use this one instead:

alias +ctap   "alias duckon;       alias duckoff;       ctapon; +jump"
alias -ctap   "alias duckon +duck; alias duckoff -duck; -jump;  ctapoff"
alias +fduck  "alias ctapon;       alias ctapoff;       duckon"
alias -fduck  "alias ctapon +duck; alias ctapoff -duck; duckoff"
alias ctapon  +duck
alias ctapoff -duck
alias duckon  +duck
alias duckoff -duck

bind ALT +ctap
bind SHIFT +fduck

it makes it so you can jump out of a crouch, and if you continue holding crouch you will crouch again after releasing your jump key. the main point is that it just makes your keys feel more responsive like the null-movement cancelling script (which i like to use in combination with this one)

make sure to change the last two lines to your desired keys for jump and crouch

here is a video, everything listed in the OP held true for the testing

there are still some nice height gains such as from gray bridge on badlands over/on top of the ramparts on spire (is that what they're called?)

i played through veteran over the weekend as an engineer. i was using a build i came up with during the beta that guarantees you a 10k hp shield every 8 seconds so i never used potions in most boss fights. but it was slooow dps

now im trying hardcore elite as an outlander and i feel im going to get gimped by something really dumb (like those bear traps in act 1 took out half my hp). but so far so good and just beat grall

i wasnt going to get into this topic, but now you've said this. how can you be against the top players, who actively play the game which often times is for physical cash, being the ones who decide what should be allowed? they have the most developed and experienced understanding of it
