Yay, the difference is at 200k the demomen are fucked!

Josh · #32 12-13-2009, 02:56 AM

Ugh, I picked the wrong side.

Anyways, crafting: fuck yes.

Edit: Aw fuck it, I don't care anymore. Whoever gets the new secret weapon I will play for about a week and the go back to being a Medic.

I might enter the propaganda comp. I have an idea for a spin on Churchill's 'Let us go forward together' and 'Women of Britain say "GO"'.

The newpaper is written in Latin

Any one found this hidden link. I got all exited and thought another hat when I saw the 'poor monkey' text prematurely load.

Poopy Joe for the tenth class anybody?

Larate sounds like awesome, the Bugle....not so much...

I really like what they're doing with this, the comic and all.

MeechMunchie · #41 12-15-2009, 09:16 AM

I don't like it when unlockables aren't relevant to the class. I've entered the propaganda contest. I know I won't win anything, but...

Both are parodies of British WWII posters.

Mac Sirloin · #42 12-15-2009, 01:30 PM

The Demos unlockables are totally relevant. He's Scottish. The Scottish had haunted swords and specialty utrbo charge shields. Duh.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume his last unlockable will be proximity mines or something close to those.That or a MIRV type weapon.

EDIT: I'm willing to guess that they unveiled the Demo updates early specifically to get more Soldiers killed and make it more neck and neck.

I thought that to. Pitty it's now neck and neck anyway.

Josh · #44 12-15-2009, 10:37 PM

That hidden page had a sword in it. I'm guessing the Bugle will be for the Soldier.

Exactly. I've been resisting hard to play Demoman - those two unlockables sound great. Imagine a melee server with Demomen-with-swords-and-shields only...

Also, this, if you haven't already seen:
The Direct Hit

I meant relevant to the class. What has speed boosting got to do with blowing stuff up? The shield's going to make sticky jumping a viable tactic, though. Has anyone found any crafting blueprints?

Josh · #47 12-16-2009, 08:43 AM

I don't think we can Craft yet. When the update comes....

Mac Sirloin · #48 12-16-2009, 12:21 PM

Wait, what bugle? Where?

I liked the soldier weapon quite a bit.

moxco · #49 12-17-2009, 04:45 PM

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY! Soldier wins! I really like the sound of the soldier's direct hit rocket launcher.

dripik · #50 12-18-2009, 02:19 AM

I had the luck to meet a Direct Hit rocket from the receiving end. The Eyelander too. Didn't have time to realise what killed me, it was so quick. I don't possess any of the new stuff yet, but the time will come. With all these Achievements, playing Demoman and Soldier will be much more fun that before. Had a good run as Demo this morning on Granary CP. 'twas epic.

Also, crafting is on now. Already have Scrap Metal and a Heavy token. Good thing I never deleted all those Sandmans and Sandwiches...

Josh · #51 12-18-2009, 03:34 AM

I wonder if the Demo would have got the same secret weapon if they won?

Crashpunk · #52 12-18-2009, 03:35 AM

The Soldier won! Hurray! best news i've heard all day!

I love the Soldier's New weapons. the new Rocket Launcher and the flag
VICTORY!

MeechMunchie · #53 12-18-2009, 04:35 AM

Crafting looks good. I'm gonna get me a fedora.

I read on the Steam forums that a mapper had seen both in action, and the Demo has a different one. He thought it was cooler.
