Team Fortress 2 thread V2: The Gun Mettle update is LIVE

Yeah…still not working.

Are you sure that hasn’t already downloaded? Sometimes Steam gives a Download started or paused message when it’s already done.

This kind of sucks, if not today, maybe tomorrow?

Looks like mine auto updated at 6:58 PST. Jumping in to play soon

If the loadout starts working again, definitely craft the Soldier’s new whip first. It is too hilarious! XD

Fuck this patch so hard.

Im already sick of hearing that whip.

Wow. Can’t find a single game that can connect to the item server. Yay

So, did anyone even play last night? I was in a game with CSword but he wasnt doing nothing but standing there. Sad times.

Anyhow, I got my buddy to download that shit so me and him played for a couple hours last night. First we did and arena game. Neither of us liked that game type though. Maybe if we were more experienced players it would have been ok but we would die right away and then have to wait…just to do the same thing right when the next round started.

After that we played a capture point game and that was pretty fun. Im familar with that game type so I had kind of an idea what to do. I just ran around as a medic all night. The other team was gettin’ pissed because we had 3 medics following around either 2 Soldiers or a Soldier and a Demo man. hehe We ran that shit.

I don’t like all these nubs. We were being spawn camped so I switched to Soldier to clear it out. Our team had 5 spies and 3 engies. WTF

That’s a shame…no one wanted to be medic on my last run.
Sucks when EVERYONE is hitting the medic button.

Some of you guys should post your Steam ID. It would help in finding SRK peeps to play with. My name is the same everywhere, Drizzt519. Except here, because I fucked up.

I tried to play last night but the item server thing discouraged me

Damn. I just finished playing as medic. I try and find a heavy or soldier with a hat and follow him

Fuck following a heavy, big bastard can take care of himself. I generally try to follow a Soldier around. If I cant find a Soldier I follow a Demo Man and if I cant find either I follow a Pyro. It also depends on whats going on in the match too.

Tomislav is awesome.

I’ll wait for a bit for things to smooth out before I return to playing TF2.

i used up all my metal to make some new stuff (didn’t have enough metal for everything, but i got few things):

the detonator is the combustible lemon launcher. in that its a huge lemon. >:/
edit: spending a bit more time with it does show its good for bothering snipers, but only getting mini-crits on burning enemies may lead to more problems than just sticking with the flare.

the soldier whip is hilarious.

can’t decide if scout’s soda gun is awesome or WAY TOO AWESOME.

new demo sword means all charging all the time

heavy’s new weapon (which he uses a lot of his “my new weapon :D” lines for) seems neat, but there’s some silly clipping errors that just shouldn’t be there

We playing tonight instead?

is the srk server still up? or will the game be somewhere else?

Geese Pants couldn’t get the server up. Maybe he will have less trouble today.
