And kinda pointless, in my opinion.
Honestly, I think that’s what VALVe/players named the update.
Wouldn’t fit his theme also. I’m thinking grenades, mines, or some variation on the launcher. It needs to explode.
Something like fire “dud” rockets a la UT.
Soldiers are getting grenades! You heard it here first!
this news was originally well received by myself
until i realised this meant a potentially lone engi update - failmates ho!
Well, if they make it a shittier version of the Minigun, then yes. If they do something unique with it, like having it give him a Super Mario 2 Princess Toadstool-style hover, I think that’d be pretty beastly. And I’d prefer that to them just giving him a rocket launcher that has a higher chance for crit but only has 2 shots or something like that.
Soldier wouldn’t necessarily need everything to explode. His second weapon, after all, is a shotty.
but…the soldier is the american…the demo is a black scottish cyclops.
I’m totally fuckin makin a bomb ass poster…for the soldier baby. Though, doin one for demo would be funnier.
The contest doesn’t say anything about how many entries you can do…hmmm
Oh yeah, im doin a soldier and a demo and using 2 different emails >:)
BITCHES
Haha, see, thats whats so awesome about propaganda, I can turn the American soldier into a commie, and the foreign scottish guy into the american hero. Never mind the fact that theres irony in that I used a picture of the Demoman drinking, and photoshopped it out for his “Trust me” campaign poster. It’s all kinds of awesome.
Also, new update posted…
Saxton hale comic is awesome, and the fucking CRAFTING system is coming this week? No more deleting dupes!
Just finished reading everything on the new update. Good times, but I still can’t believe I spent an entire day, refreshing the tf2 page, only for it to come out at 11:00pm :-/. Not worth it…
Quite nice, but I think you should make it more obvious which side you’re supporting.
I doubt it. Its nothing new that people who starts playing TF2 would likely go to Soldier since its quite user-friendly. Which probably accounts for why Soldier’s winning, since not many fully know how to use demo. I’m just worried by the end of this, people will see the true greatness of demo :bluu:
Already did, hah. http://s235.photobucket.com/albums/ee96/igotalottastuff/?action=view¤t=TF2PropagandaPosterEntry-1.png
I hope the TF2 team will recognize the background as the Scottish royal flag. Not some random background.
Seems to good IMO, and TF2 always has wacky main weapons, I doubt they’d subject to a generic military machine gun.
Edit:
Damn, I’m good at making scraps…
In case nobody noticed, which would surprise me considering that it loads before the comic.
Edit because I forget everything: I think the crafting thing is certainly interesting, but it’s pretty much guaranteed that people will keep combination databases or figure out the formula or whatever system they’re using, making “blueprints” worthless.
also Demomen cannot percieve or concieve depth or death. They will dive in they own graves by going against any Soldier.
Protip: Send something to that PO Box, and receive a prize in the mail from Valve
I deleted dupes days before the update…FUCKING A…I should have known better.
Man, I’m tempted to send it out this weekend. Otherwise, glad to see that the Soldier vs. Demoman gap is widening, 28k Soldier kills, and 30k Demomen. Oh jeeze though, Crafting. Good thing I get duplicates on a regular basis, and I’m up to like 269 Demomen slain.
I still feel that Soldier wins this matchup, its like 6-4. Ah well, I know they’ll throw a few twists at us (the propaganda poster winner is worth votes, and there will be a post in the next few days about people cheating the system, and how their contributions will now be ignored), so they’ll make it look close at least.
So, we playing in about 30 mins right?
Fuck it, ya’ll niggas better get on today!
I’ll be there, you impressionable young orangutan.
When are we playing? I’m so down.
