New maps, new Engy buildings and new Meet the Team video is what i'm looking forward to.
It sounds like it shouldn't be long now.

They need to add a page 3 to the inventory... my page 2 is nearly full and I use page 1 for craftingSpidery_Yoda wrote:

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
they need to get rid of that roleplay crafting shit altogether and focus on making the game good and cohesive again

Of course not.
Since when does valve care about balance?
They're only going to balance everything after the engy update.
What new engineer buildings?
The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.
keep telling yourself that. looks like they're realllly concerned with game-balance and finesse at the moment, doesn't it? no. they're developing an inane and irrelevant crafting system and adding more comedy-hats to the game. get real. tf2 stopped being a serious platform for competitive, balanced play about 3 patches ago.Trotskygrad wrote:

The Engineer Update is going to add new Engy buildings. Or at least that's the assumption.War Man wrote:

At least 1 new building has been semi-confirmed... the dispenser replacement which will probably be a repair node if valve can work out how they want to do it (they stated that beta trials had proven a normal dispenser FAR too valuable as a team support tool, and removing the healing and resupply function had pissed off teammates)Spidery_Yoda wrote:

i mean 'competitive' in the sense that, the main object in gameplay is to win over the enemy teamFloppY_ wrote:

in tf2 it's all comedy and shitty gimmicks now... that base-level perfectly-balanced red vs. blue gameplay feels hidden beneath shit
achievements, crafting, joke shit... it all takes attention away from what should always be the focus for an fps game

I do wish they hadn't so completely ruined the original atmosphere and style. It was wonderful and now it's full of boxing gloves and cheap laughs in place of the original's subtle humour.
im just glad valve carried on driving their game in the complete-wrong fucking direction
so now y'all, about 6 months late, see what i was grumbling about

I started worrying about the direction (of the asthetics at least) back when the Heavy Update came out. First it was the KGB and the Sandvich, and then the energy drink (in 1968?) and the baseball. I didn't like the way it was going at all.
But then I just accepted it I guess, and by now when they add modern day earphones and the brain slug from Futurama I barely even notice because the original style, time and theme is so long gone it doesn't really bother me anymore.
But that said, i'm a sucker for new content. I always enjoy using new weapons and finding new ways to play the game. So bring on the Engineer Update I say.

But tbh I won't complain about free content.. it helps the game stay fresh.. I doubt I would still play it if there was only the standard 9 classes and their base weapons... the new ones at least offer some fresh mixes of inventory items

I got offered to ring for Complexity, but turned it down 'cause they're beneath my skill level.

The only thing I really hate are the hats, and the prospect that useless cosmetic crap will be the biggest part of all future updates.
I'm a collector in all games, and generally try to get and achieve everything that can be.
But now with this silly amount of hats, that can only be collected in their entirety if you have no life and have been playing continuously since 1968, I really feel that they shouldn't have included them at all.
Because what good is it if you have one or two random hats (if any), but are constantly teased by seeing another one that you actually really want?
I like all the new weapons, as it's easier to get them, either by random drops or crafting the other random crap.

however I think it's kind of a "want what you can't have" thing...
I've done tons of idling and only gotten 2 hats to show for it
Well unless you count that one hat Valve stole from me for using the idle app

Valve aren't making hats anymore. The last few batches have all been community-made and the next ones will be too.globefish23 wrote:

The hats don't do anything so it doesn't matter if they're rare. In fact it's a good thing that they are rare.
Also the time spent making hats vs the time spent making actual gameplay changes will be massive. They're most likely something like "Nearly everything is finished, lets add something random while we're waiting for that last guy to finish his part". Hardly the focus of their time.
