Official Team Fortress 2 April Update Thread

Lol the annoying thing is when you've just run around a corner and the headshot registers when you are out of their line of sight.

How do you know you're out the line of slight?

The backstab hit registery is daft sometimes as well, how on earth you can be backstabbed from the front I will never know.

You can be backstabbed from the back, sides and above. Although I do agree the melee hit reg is a little dodgy at times.............probably just sour grapes :p
 
Well those issues can all be written off to the lovely clientside prediction :/


Just because it happened on your screen doesnt actually mean it happened on the server!

Yes but it's more than just sour grapes when the Medic hits you with his bonesaw from 10 feet away.

This update will not be out at all this week, will it? Should have known . . .
 
Just got an update popup on steam, something about stalker and also...

GOLDRUSH/MEDIC UPDATE COMING NEXT WEEK!

:D
 
A major update for TF2 is due next week, adding an all new map, Goldrush, and new achievement-based weapons for the Medic. Pick up TF2 here and get ready.

Thats what it said, so the latest deadline is Friday next week.... 2nd May
 
Expect to see teams with 40-50% medics for a while. Not necessarily a bad thing as I often play medic, just cos no one else is
 
i got that update pop up last week which means it should still be here this week not next week, i would have expected this from ea not valve :(

Yeah Valve WHY ARE YOU SO LATE PROVIDING A COMPLETELY FREE UPDATE WHEN YOU ARE UNDER OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE UPDATES TO BEGIN WITH????? I'm cancelling my 4 accounts... oh wait.

Get a grip, it'll be here when it's ready.
 
If it were EA you would get a couple of patches (max) out of the blue with no dialogue on their part so leaving the community utterly in the dark to whether they will ever be released and what will be contained within them, each taking upwards of 6 months to appear. They fix a paltry amount of problems that didn't really exist to begin with, leaving the glaringly obvious ones untouched and then... done, finito, whatever state the game is in (which won't be very far from how it was v1.0) is how it will be until you move onto a new game.

Don't compare EA to Valve.

Set sail for fail :rolleyes:

Durzel is right, Valve have no obligation to release this free content. They've not even set a date for its release, all this thread has had to go on are guessed dates from various websites. Be patient.

Where the hell have you been for the last umpteen years?! Valve NEVER meet their own deadlines, yet we forgive them as everything they produce is a grade quality. If you honestly expected the update to be released on the rumored date you are bing incredibly nieve and stupid.

Its not an insult, its the truth. Most of the people in this thread are winging and crying over unconfirmed articles. As with everything Valve, it'll be out when its out, theres no reason to start pram and toy related activities.
 
The reg is messed up in TF2 though. It happens with snipers, when you shoot someone but you were aiming no where near them :p. I'll see if I can dig up the thread on the steam forums that looked into the reg issues on TF2.

The spies backstabs need fixing as well. There's the bug where you backstab someone in the face, and then there's the problem with your backstabs not registering after you've heard the stab noise. The melee weapon reach needs fixed. Sometimes it's just ridiculous how far away you get killed from. I also agree with Corran that it's annoying getting shot when you are out of the enemy's line of sight. No, it's not anything to do with my connection or laggy servers. I'd rather they fixed things than bring out a load of new content atm.

/complaining

All that being said it's still a quality game :)

If i had a penny for every time i read that.....

You do know you have no way of knowing if your in a line of sight from an enemy? the Death Cam is taken like 3 or 4 seconds later, when they have run away....

Yes the spys backstab is off, but it effects everyone! play spy and exploit it, or dont play spy and shut up about it.

Mele weapons are fine, any wierdness effects everyone.
