Team Fortress 2 - Heavy Update, New Maps, New Mode are all live now!

Oh the fun I will have knowing this…I hope Valve doesn’t kill the stack soon.

Oh schanp…

WildKittyv1 I believe is my Steam ID. What were you playing/when/what region? You might’ve, I was around a few different servers last night.

OH NOES I don’t want to be banned. But I also don’t want to get all those damn acheivements … especially since I got some legit and I was finally able to get my head of class even though it had been glitched for so long (I had it done said 9/9 or whatever but still never gave it to me) I can’t decided which is worse have to farm achievements or getting banned.

Also: DUDE if you farmed with a small group of people and had already been close to the 10000000 heal you’d be able to fucking have all the other achievements done in one night. Stupid asses.

wasn’t you then… different wild kitty. I was playing on an east coast server the first time… like right after the patch was out.

I don’t think they are going to ban anybody. They’ll roll something back if anything.

yeah but thats dumb anyways… but I guess thats my whole bias to making achievements that Im just going to farm to get done anyways just because I feel the game should stay with everyone having the same shit.

Also incase anyone was wondering:

Uberzaw or whatever still gets crits which is hot butter. Also there is some other funny things about it but I don’t really want to spoil it incase you guys care.

^It’s hideous looking. I know that much. =p

Naw, spoil! It’s just a weapon.

Man, I really need to get the PC version now. I’ve got the 360 version.

I wonder what unlockables they’re gonna give Scout. I’m really interested in that.

Haha okay well when you taunt it fucking plays metal music… And that is amazing! I guess it’s not that big a deal but it’s fucking sweet. Plus the thing looks like a blood knife with a syringe int he middle haha.

I thought of one…

Home Run: Bat a Demoman’s stick back to him, killing the Demoman in the process.

That would be cool, but not really useful. A good Scout rarely has their baseball bat out and a good Demo will shoot stickies at the ground, not somewhere the Scout could hit it back at them. However, if they give Demos stickies that stick to people, it could get interesting.

Cause carrying a gnome through an entire game is useful?

Achievements as the medic achievements have shown, are arbitrary and ridiculous and have absolutely no foundation in anything Useful what so ever, its really valve’s attempt to make you get a bunch of your friends toeghther in a server and repeatedly punch people with a heavy while a medic heals him so that he may get a weapon they should have just made available from the start.

I’m kind of on the fence about the achievement based unlocks. On one hand, I normally loathe having to spend lots of time unlocking stuff for multiplayer. Usually it’s only a drag though when you have to play some silly superfluous singleplayer mode. Some of the achievements are whack granted, mainly certain ones that will have an adverse effect on a team when their Medic is going for them. On the other hand, I find the game fun enough that it won’t really feel like a ‘grind’. More Medics on teams will be nice while it lasts.

Curious to see how the other class packs turn out.

Seriously. It’s really stupid that they’d make achievements for an FPS game, it kinda ruins the whole point of trying to get noobs into the game. They’ll have to play a bunch just to be able to compete, sounds like WoW.

Also, I’ve yet to try it but if you can crit-uber spies, wouldn’t they get instant kills on everyone?

Whoever asked if you can stack ubers, yes. We were doing that last night, it’s really broken with a pyro.

Another thing, i managed to get onto the sky with the soldier in goldrush. I was at the train tracks up high and I rocket jumped into the sky.

  • they fixed it. ppl that hacked aren’t able to equip. =/

like at all?

Did they roll it back?..

I must know

It looks like they did a rollback of just the medic achievements. I used the console command, after that last update my medic achievements are back to zero, but I still have the first 20 achievements. According to people on steampowered, some people who legitimately unlocked the medic achievements lost theirs and others who used the console kept their stuff. So the rollback sounds pretty botched.

I’m disappointed they didn’t just remove the console commands and went so far as to do a rollback. I don’t have the patience to deal with these overly situational achievements. I just want the weapons.

Oh and the ubersaw is hands down better than the bonesaw. Has a high crit rate so it hits like a fucking mack truck. And the crit hit does enough damage to drop a full hp soldier. All while giving you a quarter of your uber meter for every hit. If you’re a medic and don’t have it you’re at a disadvantage.

If you used it, then all your achievements are gone, even the ones you earned legitimately…

I’m not that into the whole achievements thing… I think the game is fun enough without arbitrary goals for one class. That said, I think Goldrush is an incredible map, it really is a lot of fun.

Anyway, if you’re curious about the game login to the free weekend this coming weekend, I’ll see you SRK clan guys online anyway no doubt. The era of 4/5-medics-per-team is self-balancing, there are plenty of ways to keep the achievement obsessives in check, even on public servers.

Yeah as long as you didn’t use the milestone parts you kept your achievements it seemed… ahah. Oh well looks like acheivement unlock is still on! I have a map we can use called achievement box… we just need a place to put it.

Yeah I lost my achievements heh. Not the ones I earned legit, but just the ones I got from using the command.

I’m up for achievement farming if and when any of you guys are. When’s it supposed to be?
