    Clarification about "comp players still playing" and why I am so bitter about TF2

    This, I think, is the smoking gun that illustrates how poorly Valve's actually maintained the mechanics of balance. If you lose connection to the loadout server, TF2 turns into an entirely different game, and it's because of the mission creep and general unbalancing of the unlocks both within...

    The Über Update, Day One

    HERETIC! HERETIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC TBH, It's entirely possible that it's much lighter than the original Flamethrower, which does kind of correlate with it being less powerful.

    The Über Update, Day One

    Donning my naïveté hat for a moment, the idea that the Pyro might simply be gay would be a nice nod to J.C. Leyendecker's homosexuality, and the fact that his work helped to tinge (or rather, underscore) the popular ideal of the "man's man" containing homoerotic undertones. Of course, I hate...

    Who else thinks the new Hospital map is an updated version of Rock2 from Team Fortres

    You're ignoring the quite bloody decapitations in-game and outright gore from Meet the Spy.

    CTF Estate

    To fix the red cross problem, why not use yellow crosses, or even green ones? Those colors wouldn't conflict with either team. EDIT: Grazr suggested the same thing. DERPHERPDERPDERP

    CTF Estate

    As an idea to complement grazr's suggestion, I was at the Heniz History Center last month, and it's ceiling is a fascinating example and study of how bricks are used in architecture. The building itself used to be an icehouse, and that ceiling is actually made up of tiny, shallow brick arches...

    Beta update 4/26/2011

    Terrible ideas, but they're at least doing what they said they intended to do, experiment.

    A Poll: HDR on? Or HDR off?

    HDR off, though I only do it because of the bloom.

    WiP in WiP, post your screenshots!

    From what it looks like, it's not even that colored lighting is necessarily bad, but there's no way in hell those tunnels would EVER be that purple, unless it was made of purple stone.

    Yeah, my bad. I got rid of it.

    Ultimate Mapping Resource Pack

    Yeah, except for the fact that AVG is MORE SHIT. Besides, Norton was perfectly fine with the previous version of this installer, and I'm betting that within a day it'll be fine, as it deleted it on the grounds that it was an uncommon file. EDIT: Or I can do what I just did and disable the...
