Powerlord Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 The reserved slot plugin we use is completely hosed in this update, as the server class it hooked has undergone significant revision. I'll be installing the old reserved slots plugin, but that also means that we'll have one more slot on the server than we do people, breaking auto-join.
BardicKnowledge Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Anyone who sees this and plays RIFT, I have the coupon for a TF2 hat -- first person to find me either via PM or ingame gets it for basically anything, as it doesn't benefit me. Edit: New rocket launcher feels great, better than standard for everything except using an uber (where clip size matters more). New shotgun not as good as the standard imo -- 3 shots just isn't enough. Would be better on Pyro post uncornered airblast, but Pyro/Engie can't use it. Does anyone think that instead of giving the Demo all this knight gear, they should have just added a "Knight" class? Lastly, Engie is desperately in need of new gear now -- I really hope that the next update addresses this.
ParanoidDrone Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Also, , if anyone is interested. How do you get the taunts? I assume they're action items or something, but I could be mistaken.
Super-Duper Sombrero Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The Schadenfreude is an action slot item available in the store for like $7.49 I think.
Cinderwild Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 $8 for the taunt that makes people laugh. $2 for the medic taunt that drops my FPS to 10.
Bleck Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 all of the new weapons seem pretty fun and fresh and funky but the new demoman set is the most fun (and broken) thing in the universe
Brushfire Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Don't think I care for the Solly stuff. Also the Detonator is stupid bad.
Kiyobi Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The Detonator has disappointed this Pyro very, very much.
Brushfire Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The Detonator has disappointed this Pyro very, very much. Ditto and shit.
Unstable Hamster Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Hey Y'all, I know I've not been around on TF2 for awhile, yet this medic update really wants me to get back in. Also having much faster internet helps me to actually keep up. I was pleasantly surprised to get the new demo man sword yesterday too. It's awesome to get health from just about everything lying around, yet no ammo does kinda suck. Well anyways, see you guys in the TF2 server!
Powerlord Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The slot-free reserved slot system has been updated and is working again. Servers have been restarted. I spent some time yesterday disabling the CPU detection routine that TF2 now uses. It appears to misdetect the CPU speed sometimes, which causes our server to have time move at something like 10 times normal speed. Now that it's disabled, we're back to just our normal lag.

The freaky thing was that my first chance to actually play after the update was when the server was freaking out like that, and I had just added a max_fps line in my configs, so I was terrified that I had fucked up somewhere. Good to know.
Lyrai Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 There is a shitload of bugs. None of the demo's new items work on Medival Mode, infinite targing. I'm hoping (the lack of) Flarejumping is one of them.
Powerlord Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 So, anyway, during a party on another server earlier today, I managed to get an interesting backstab. This is post-YER stab. What was it interesting? Because his Steam ID was STEAM_0:0:84901, with Steam username robinwalker.
Top Gun Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 The king is dead, long live the king? (I am going to strangle this game...I can't get anyone else to see my created server for the life of me, even after I've forwarded the proper ports to my router.)

Because his Steam ID was STEAM_0:0:84901, with Steam username robinwalker. Yep. The Great Lakes Reddit server had invited Robin to come and play with them. I forget the reasoning or event. Good stuff there.
Kiyobi Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 @Powerlord Nice.jpg So, who here feels the Tomislav should get nerfed? ...and infinite Targing? would explain the... unthinkable dominance of demoknights lately.
Brushfire Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 ...and infinite Targing? would explain the... unthinkable dominance of demoknights lately. Poof! Demoknights have now failed. Long live the Axstinguisher!
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Ahh... The traditional "I'm new so I'm getting my ass-raped" ceremonial dance.
Bleck Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 infinite Targing? there is no infinite targe glitch, as far as I know - what people are interpreting to be a glitch is actually that the new shield stops using up actual charge meter as soon as you're stopped or you attack, which means that the bar will fill up quite quickly after a short charge (especially with alibooties)
Brushfire Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 I really love it when we RTV after one teams gets to attack on Thunder Mountain and the new attackers get hosed.
Powerlord Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 I really love it when we RTV after one teams gets to attack on Thunder Mountain and the new attackers get hosed. I think I've mentioned this before: People don't like large imbalances, and those teams weren't very balanced at all. The points that the team that played BLU first did capture were capped within seconds of the round ending, and after the teams switched, the other team was just mowing them down. Plus, Thunder Mountain is one of those "Meh" maps... I don't know why people voted for it instead of Upward.
Bleck Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 Plus, Thunder Mountain is one of those "Meh" maps... I don't know why people voted for it instead of Upward. because people just don't know man they just don't know anyways is our votescramble still all broken also I am sick and fucking tired of being kicked for reserve slots so who's wallet do I need to fellate to get one
Super-Duper Sombrero Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 Plus, Thunder Mountain is one of those "Meh" maps... I don't know why people voted for it instead of Upward. Usually I just mash for one of the buttons that will allow me to switch weapons again so I don't get pooped on by the mapvote. That thing has killed me more times than I would like to admit.
Brushfire Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 Why not just have the vote buttons be the function keys, similar to other servers.
