SirChadlyOC Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/force-a-nature.htmThe Force-A-Nature Has been announced. Almost release time. That's because my replacement motherboard is in California right now on a UPS truck. Almost release time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should be around, I am off tomorrow (Tuesday for ya'll), so I shouldn't have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindStrike Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 If the Force-A-Nature causes a crazy recoil, does that mean you could triple jump? O_o Also, people are on. Join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Scout update is out right now. I've told the server to update, but it may take a while... Steam servers are bogged down. There are other fixes as well, including stuff for Spies so that they can switch which weapon it shows them as using. Yes, that's right, you can no longer tell who is a Spy just by what weapon they have equipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleck Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yes, that's right, you can no longer tell who is a Spy just by what weapon they have equipped. Maybe now people will ACTUALLY FUCKING SPY CHECK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindStrike Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Eh, I was doing ok... that was pretty funny when I was engi on Goldrush and teleported to the back and set up a sentry, though it was ineffective in that some people didn't die. Oh well, still fun. GGs everyone who played. Also, I'm afraid to play with everyone being scouts now. Very... afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what's going on with the server now... it vanished or something when the map changed; I told it to restart, but it hasn't reappeared yet. Edit: I filed a trouble ticket about the server being down. Edit 2: Closed ticket... there's a console log viewer now and Steam is currently updating.

Powerlord Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The server's back up, but beats me if the update was successfully applied. Then again, it was segment faulting earlier, so I'm going to guess yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The server's still having some issues, which cause it to crash for unknown reasons. Bahamut's working on it, although it might be related to Sourcemod's gamedata stuff... an update should be made available for that soon. Unfortunately, I really need to go to bed, as I have to leave for work in 8 hours. Edit: I've renamed the addons directory temporarily. This disabled all our mods, but it *should* at least prevent the server from crashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Interesting side updates, not sure if I like the new spy weapon thing. -Changed backstab handling to fix facestabs ^ We all know that facestabs aren't fixed, but maybe there'll be less now. - Fixed obscure bug where spectators were able to carry the flag ^lol that would be funny to see They still haven't fixed backstab animation though, that's pretty sad...

Secret Agent Man Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 It sounds like the Scout will be very defensive and won't have much offensive power when he has all three new weapons equipped. You'll have a shotgun with less ammo/longer reload times, no pistol, and can only single-jump. You can stun/dodge, but not kill easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The reload time is very short with the Force-A-Nature. I got no idea what Valve was talking about with that. Also where is our Meet the Pyro Video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I've reenabled sourcemod with a fix I found here... removing the knife crit section from sourcemod's TF2 gamedata files. As you can see from page 2, our server isn't grabbing the updated gamedata files for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meeting_Gman Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 new scoot weapons are made specifically for trolling That's what the Scoot is all aboot. bad pun Also where is our Meet the Pyro Video? I would have thought for certain you would have wanted the "Meet the Medic" video! It will be awesome when that comes out. Don't think I'll have the Scout unlocks any time soon, but it was great to seem them in action. The 'Bonk' Energy Drink was a sight to behold.

Powerlord Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The gamedata autoupdater appears to be working again. Rumor has it that payload maps may be causing issues. Not sure if it's true or not, but default map has been changed... temporarily to cp_junction_final, but then to ctf_2fort. Edit: I'm going to assume from the lack of responses and the 1 hour, 45 minute connect time Brushfire has that the server is still working at least somewhat correctly.

Zephyr Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Look at this, just caved in your skull, my bat's still dry, no clumps of hair. 0:20 in first one. Haha, these are pretty fun actuallly. "Fat bald fatty fat fat!" "My tiny little head! It's so tiny, such a tiny little head!" "Order now and you get a second beating for free!" I can't believe they actually threw in some vince quotes.
