FireSlash Posted November 22, 2010 Author Posted November 22, 2010 He seemed like significantly less of an asshole in-game. Either way it was a fun match once we got going. We also need an OCR 9v9 heavy fist fight night.
BardicKnowledge Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Is the highlander server active when you guys aren't using it for tourney play? I'd love to play sometime.
phill Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 We also need an OCR 9v9 heavy fist fight night. I think we need the occasional class melee battle night.
Cinderwild Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 We need to do Medieval mode with Huntsman Snipers and Demoknights only, on that one Medieval castle map.
BardicKnowledge Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 We need to do Medieval mode with Huntsman Snipers and Demoknights only, on that one Medieval castle map. This idea is awesome.
Necro Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 We need to do Medieval mode with Huntsman Snipers and Demoknights only, on that one Medieval castle map. This has been known to happen from time to time. It usually starts out as medieval times and then morphs to who can obtain the most heads. I think last time we did that the head count reached close to 100 on a single Demoman. I think that was the same night we used the weapon switch glitch to uber an equalizer soldier. Chili or Paranoid might have a video of that on Youtube.

All of my videos are Spy gameplay. (Shameless plug.)
FireSlash Posted November 22, 2010 Author Posted November 22, 2010 demos from last night (except gpit) http://kagami.fireslash.net/demos/comp/
Powerlord Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 I saw a TF2 client update a few minutes ago... suspiciously right after I ran the "first time setup" for Poker Night. No indication that there was a server update, though. Edit: The update consisted of translation updates and map thumbnail image updates.
Cinderwild Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Is it vain that I started watching Paranoid's videos just to see if I'm in them? EDIT: I got my Voodoo Juju >
Powerlord Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 So, I have all my Poker Night TF2 items... but I noticed I can't trade the newer Lugermorph, only the Vintage one. Also, a Companion Cube Pin has apparently snuck into TF2's files. Portal 2 pre-order bonus anyone? Someone asked about the Highlander server earlier: The Highlander server does not actually enforce the highlander game mechanic, due to it preventing subs from taking the place of a regular if someone gets disconnected. Also, it's set up for tournament configuration.
Cinderwild Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Valve should make a game mode out of the old TF2 characters from that picture in the Engineer comic. New models and new weapons that are much more conservative with less ammo.
RussellChamp Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Wow, so I found this interesting map pack called "CP Mirrored Maps" where the author just took a bunch of stock Valve CP maps and mirrored them such that left is right and right is left. I'll have to give them a go some time! It'd be interesting to see on the server as well since most of us have memorized the normal versions of these maps already and it would really throw us off. http://forums.tf2maps.net/showthread.php?t=15732
Cinderwild Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 It'd be better to do it unexpectedly, like temporarily replace the regular map files.
RussellChamp Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 It'd be better to do it unexpectedly, like temporarily replace the regular map files. Well, since they're new maps people would still have to download them (giving away the surprise).
RussellChamp Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 demos from last night (except gpit)http://kagami.fireslash.net/demos/comp/ So I watched through those replays. Even though they got the short end of the stick (ping wise) they still did admirably well! At the end of the KotH match they even showed themselves to be good sports by "gg"'ing all around (and that one was pretty intense!) I found it funny how I cameo'd in the Upward match. Once again, sorry about that, last I had heard from Paranoid the matches were starting a few hours later and I would be subbing as Pyro. Hee hee! Also, for anyone else who would like to watch those: The actual TIME the match plays in the Upward demo is from around the 20min mark to the 37min mark. The rest of it was just talking and blank blankness at the end. Congratulations on the win and good luck with the next match!

Yeah, the scheduling turned into a total clusterfuck and I sincerely apologize for my numerous fails in that regard. Hopefully the next one won't be so bad since we'll all be in the US. Speaking of which, our next opponents are the Lazytown Regulars, aka the team that beat OCAD and the Immaculate Breasts. Any insights from that group?

It'd be better to do it unexpectedly, like temporarily replace the regular map files. You can't, that would cause clients to be kicked because they don't have the same version of the map that the server does. Or they'd have to download them. Lose/lose either way.
ParanoidDrone Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Our next Highlander match is coming up, big duh, and I doubt any of us want to play on Thanksgiving day. Or the day after, likely. Or maybe you do, I don't know. My point is, what days and times work for you Highlander folks this weekend?

Are we going to do a walkthrough of the map ahead of time?
ParanoidDrone Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 Possibly, depends if we can all get together. IIRC we've covered Badwater before, so that should be relatively short (or nonexistent), leaving us to focus on Steel and maybe Viaduct if we want to. Gaunt's been the one to get them organized in the group phase.
bonzai! Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I'm not working on Thanksgiving, or on Friday, and my weekend is free and flexible so far.
XeroZohar Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I'm good anytime pretty much. Just not on thanksgiving or friday. Too much stuffing.
