Keymasterhttp://www.steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=posts More Update Info
http://storefront.steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=app&AppId=5073 Meet the Sandvich
I’m still downloading it so not going to get a chance to look at it until tomorrow, when hopefully our server will be updated as well 🙂

ParticipantNot overly keen on the Arena mode, the maps are great but the mode doesn’t really appeal. The waiting around alot I think detracts from the fun that TF2 is all about. I like the fact in TF2 that if you die it doesn’t matter, you just get back to the fight.
Everything else in the update is the usual high Valve standard though 😀

Yea Arena modes great until you get 2 people on opposing teams wait until everyones dead then both stand on the CP…..rinse and repeat until server empties.
genius testing right there. Don’t care really, Like Wizzy says it’s not TF2 enough for me so I probably won’t be spending a lot of time on it.
Liking everything else though, new PL map is very neat. Tidy update.
om nom nom nom nom 🙂

Participantanyone got the Heavy Unlocks yet?
Dunno ’bout yous but I think…
Sandvich – better than I’d thought in that it’s actually quite useful (when you remember that you’re carrying it doh!.) can see it getting nerfed, do miss having the shotty to hand mind. I just need to pick less obvious picnic spots though, as OM NOM NOM NOM tends to make you sitting duck ‘Konspicuous’.
Natasha – I realise that the unlocks are not technically ‘upgrades’ but ‘alternatives’ I think this gun, while sounding heaps better (and quieter) is actually shite downgrade useless. It’s only benefit seems to be against fleeing scouts, which tbh were never much of a problem seeing as they have fook all health anyway. So having a gun thats doing 25% less per hit (and no extra ammo capacity) but slightly slowing the enemy down is kinda nonsense as it makes no odds to soldiers and demos they are just around longer to finish you off. Maybe it’ll be more use when there aren’t so many Heavies on the servers too.So Sasha is still hotter IMO 🙂
K.G.B – They look ace and you gotta love the ‘ding ding’ uppercut taunt that comes with them (i presume you can finish someone off with that? hmm must try) but the punch speed decrease makes it almost impossible to nail anyone with the first punch let alone benefit from the following 5 second crit boost (coz it’s pretty easy to outrun Heavy so wtf).For a change (and for it to feel less like a chore) I didn’t farm them this time (not that I farmed all the others, just a few of the trickier ‘never gonna happen otherwise’ ones :)), all done on proper servers. Made 1 enemy though poor guy kept giving me Uber only for me to kill one person then start taunting leaving him confused and usually dead shortly after (Photostroika I think it was called) 🙂

ParticipantSandvich is the best of the lot I think, I have lost count of how many times I have found my self finding a good place to munch one down… great when you are on fire and already close to death 😀

Participanti am now just 1 acheivment away from unlocking the boxing gloves and tbh i am really not very impressed with new minigun. its only really of use if it is used in conjuction with another heavy using the regular gun. you slow them down and they kill them. as for the sandvich its an ok unlock but i really miss the shotty for those enemies that are a bit out of range or being able to shoot on the move

Participantyea Sasha ftw! although it’s quite entertaining watching a scout trying to run at you with a bat…..muhahaha u failz
