OCR TF2 Server - Anyone interested in trying out TF2 should join us!

Somewhere Gamemaster is breaking down in tears.

That was exactly my first thought upon reading that.

Also new maps cp_process and cp_standin? Guess I need to look for them to add to the server.

GM is prolly the reason that they are finally fixing this. From what he said about his Pro vs Community times, they were super butthurt about his Fungineering.

Yeah, he singlehandedly got every Engineer item banned except for the Jag and...I want to say Southern Hospitality. Some/most of them preemptively after it became clear what kind of shenanigans he got up to.

The whole thing was very amusing.

"We'll be tweaking the stats on dozens of weapons in this next update—but we thought you might find it interesting if we walked you through the decision-making process on a select few."

[Top Gun]

Wow...they're, like, going all-in on this. Maybe Robin convinced a few random employees who were bored with DOTA2 to jump in or something.

"The Dead Ringer. At roughly 80%, the equip rate for the Dead Ringer is staggeringly high."

HA!

[Aeronaut]

Greatly looking forward to the Dead Ringer nerf.

[Bahamut]

Haha that Dead Ringer nerf sounds brutal!

[ParanoidDrone]

The update's here! Patch notes are a mile long, but they're all contained in the blog post.

Notably, the big 5 set bonuses (Milkman, etc.) have been removed and replaced with "leave a calling card on your victim," except for the Saharan Spy who gets particle effects when taunting instead.

Also the Heavy gets a Gaben cosmetic set.

[Brushfire]

DING DONG DEAD RING lS DEAD!

[ParanoidDrone]

L'Etranger now grants +40% cloak duration. Juicy. Other than losing the Saharan bonus and the DR nerf we were told about, the only other change for his items was fixing a Spycicle bug.

[Bahamut]

The server has been updated!

[Super-Duper Sombrero]

Also the Heavy gets a Gaben cosmetic set.

Oh god yes.

The Croc-o-Style Kit (set)

Removed headshot immunity

[ParanoidDrone]

Oh god yes.

Turns out he only got the glasses, not the hair.

[Bahamut]

Fuck crates

[Top Gun]

I won't even ask what happened after I left.

[Lyrai]

Someone fucked a crate and got splinters in their penis, what do you think happened?

[ParanoidDrone]

I won't even ask what happened after I left.

Shrub saw that Pallets of Crates were going for super cheap on the Steam Marketplace, snapped them up en masse, and used them on the server.

I now have nearly a full backpack screen's worth of summer coolers, which would require $112.05 to unlock if I cared about opening them all. (As it is, I'll probably buy one of each key because some of the items honestly look pretty cool. The rest IDK what I'll do with.)

If you unbox anything you don't want, I have a bunch of spares from the cooler crates I'd be willing to trade for them (provided I don't have them already)

Man, some people were genuinely mad last night.

[Powerlord]

So... the server IP in the first post is the one I have in my favorites... but for whatever reason, the server is password locked and there are 10 bots on the server.

On a different note, my plugin test server runs Prop Hunt when I'm not actively testing things. tf2.rbemrose.com:27015 Of course, for the past few months, Prop Hunt is mainly what I've been testing as I've made all sorts of fixes and minor changes to it.

I blame Gamemaster (it probably is his fault, he did mention wanting to test something with bots last night).

Pika logged on and did it again a few nights ago, and we had one legit ragequit.

Pallets of Crates are the best items ever added to TF2. I need to load up one of my alt accounts with them and just hit up the matchmaking service.

[DarkeSword]

To be fair, it's incredibly annoying, especially if your backpack is mostly filled, because it prevents you from actually playing the game. You have to sit there and delete each crate and ticket one by one before you can get back into the game proper.

I'm not an admin anymore and don't really play as much these days, so my opinion probably counts less, but there should probably be some kind of rule in place about crate-spamming.

Yes, and then I made up for it by dropping 40 Secret Saxtons.
