It seems better but here is the thing.  Pinning the other team to the wall seems counter-productive.  It just means twitchy teammates are going to be shooting dead people.  Now pinning your own team to the wall....that would make for some fun.

It would be especially useful for snipers when fighting other snipers as first one not paying attention usually wins.

You can quit your whining guys. seriously.

I'm seriously glad they said that straight out.  I guess even they are tired of people complaining about everything thing they write up.

I just thought of a new game.  When a soldier or demo dies mid launch, they are now target practice for the snipers to pin to walls Bet that will be an achievement.

We wouldn't complain if everything they wrote up wasn't shit/ambiguous.

Yeah that's 1/5 of a second, it sounds like a fix for a script exploit.  Which speaking of, can we turn off the crouch jumping restriction stuff they put in to "fix" some stupid exploit I've never seen anyone use.  Occasionally it seems like I can't jump on top of engineer objects properly or rocket jump exactly right, and I'm pretty sure it's because of the stuff they did with that patch.  I know they added a server var to turn it off.

the quickscope patch crippled snipers competitively. its not a script

Doesn't the scope animation take up most of that 200ms?

[JoKeRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR]

So, Valve finally learned and put THEIR OWN MAPS in this time.

Neucleus looks pretty freaking awesome, and sawmill looks cool as well.

Sawmill is a map I always dreamed of them making for TF2.  Unfortunately they decided to ruin it by making it an Arena map.  Give it up Valve, Arena sucks, please make some real maps.

I think a few people might disagree with you.

Pipeline sounds like fun, but it will never trump Wacky Races Can't wait to try it though!

*raises hand.

We finally got out duel payload. Hurrah for that, but more importantly is how epic Nucleus looks. I'm betting that whole cap point section opens up when the timer runs out.

pipeline...orgasmic for my sensibilities

nucleus...orgasmic by look..holy hell it looks nice..by just one screenshot..

Arena is just a desperate ploy to try and bring it more of the people that like stuff like Counter Strike.  I can't really approve of that.  I was happy with Sudden Death, which all maps should be forced to end on, instead of stalemates or score victories.

And it works.

But here's the thing. TF2 =/= Counter-Strike

Case and point.

Yes exactly.  Thank you for yet again unwittingly accentuating my point.

[cbre88x]

Arena is just a fancy name for deathmatch. Some people don't like that style of play.

Quit whining about it. Especially when the servers here barely have any arena maps.

[Wedge]

Whatever, hopefully someone with make good use of the new assets for a normal map.

Especially the stuff in Nucleus. God that thing looks badass.
