Scout update coming next week!

[Evil_Monkey]

Don't think this has been posted but the Scout update is coming next week on February 24th. The Sandman is the first on the list and to me looks like its going to be real fun.

What do you guys think?

http://www.tf2.com/scoutupdate


E: I will update this each day until it's released.

Day 1: The Sandman (Weapon)
Day 2: Arena_Watchtower & Cp_Junction (2 Maps)
Day 3: Energy Drink & Achievements (Weapon & Achievements)
Day 4: Cg_Egypt & Cp_Fastlane (2 Maps)
Day 5: The Force-A-Nature
Day 6: Release Day!

[ODX]

Oh my, I foresee lots of brain damage being dealt out in the near future.

[JunkfoodMan]

That's one weapon I'm not using...
maybe for a little while, but doesn't seem very scout-ish.

[cls]

It's time to get out Natasha.:p

Seriously though , I wonder if it'll be a projectile like the Soldier's rocket. It would make Air-blast Pryo's a counter to this.

[Sel]

Looks dumb.

[Pooky]

Eh, I wouldn't sacrifice my double jump for anything.

[Sel]

Also can stun ubered enemies, are you serious? :S

[CN3089]

scout update's out, restart steam!



(just kidding it's a new blog post about the sticky nerf)







(restart steam)

[n00b1n8R]

Do not know if want.
On one hand, no double jump :gonk:
On the other hand, the scout can be a supportive credit to team (disable any class.. think about that).

Hurry up so I can have a legit reason to rage. :saddowns:

[Sever]

Today's news on the update is up, and it's highlighting two community maps (http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/watchtower_and_junction.htm) that are being officially added to TF2's map rotation.

[Sel]

I like how the page doesn't load.

[n00b1n8R]

Hey, I've been meaning to try that Arena map since I saw it on FP.
Looking better than the last update (ugh, steel :gonk:)

[CN3089]

Hey, I've been meaning to try that Arena map since I saw it on FP.
Looking better than the last update (ugh, steel :gonk:)

steel is the best official map

actually i'd say it's the best tf2 map currently out there


also junction is fucking trash

actually steel is the only community map that hasn't been absolute garbage

e:


In case you missed it earlier, a valid strategy on the current version of junction is to build a sentry behind one of your exit doors before setup ends on offense. When the door opens, your sentry will cover the entirety of one of the points you need to capture.

lol

[p0lar_bear]

Alright, so that clears up the mysterious "sixth" thing I was wondering about. What's left to uncover is the primary and secondary weapons, achievements, and of course, Meet the Pyro.

you forgot about the new gamemode

edit:


It saddens me that despite my best efforts to instruct and better you, some of you insist on finding new ways to fail.

We have sounded the alert and released a quick fix for an exploit that some unscrupulous players were using to wield items on invalid classes. I have considered an appropriate punishment for the good-for-nothings responsible for this horrendous breach of conduct. Death, of course - but death is too good for disappointments such as these. Instead, their unlockable items have been removed for a month.

To the majority of you who did not see fit to cheat, you have my congratulations: I await the countless other ways you will inevitably disappoint me in the future.

Yours,
TF Announcer

Today's news on the update is up, and it's highlighting the new achievements and the Bonk energy drink (http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/energydrink.htm).

e: It also appears that, due to the background image, the new gametype will be a payload race where each team has their own cart.

[thehoodedsmack]

So... he's gonna be FASTER? O_O I was kinda hoping for something like the sandvich, since Scouts and Medics don't exactly migle much.

[CN3089]

scattergun unlock: FUCKING BLUE SHELLS http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-argh.gif

e:

<!-- No clues this time. Nothing to see here, move along now Fortress fans... -->

valve is fucking us again!!

[ODX]

What the hell Valve, I was joking when I said the Scout needs Red Bull. (I didn't say that here, I said that to my TF2 real life friend one day.) Ugh, who knows what the scattergun will be now :(

[JunkfoodMan]

I think I'll use that drink thing from time to time, and the sandman never, let's just hope there's a worthwhile weapon next.

[itszutak]

I'm calling nailgun as final item.

[CN3089]

I'm calling nailgun as final item.

you're wrong


it's in the screen for Bonk! how could you miss it got damn

[p0lar_bear]

I think I'll use that drink thing from time to time, and the sandman never,

Something tells me that BONK is going to be a major double-edged sword and only situationally useful, and probably not in the same fashion as the Sandvich. Namely, the disclaimer.


Note: Bonk! contains several hundred times the daily recommended allowance of sugar. After the beneficial effects of the radiation wear off, drinkers have reported experiencing feelings of lethargy that can last several seconds. Reading this sentence absolves Bonk! of any liability for killing sprees inspired by or deaths resulting from the ingestion of Bonk! Enjoy Bonk! responsibly… Or by the case!

I sense a stun time (in the same sense as the Sandman) after the speed boost wears off.


let's just hope there's a worthwhile weapon next.
Unlockable weapons for all classes haven't changed their core roles too much. Medics are still a support class, though their weapons do encourage them to assist in combat and increase their longevity in the field. Pyros were given weapons to further encourage ambushes and flanking. Heavies are still about tanking and defense. So far, the Scout is still about being lethal up close, an annoyance at a distance, and about doing some damage and getting the hell out before things go tits-up.

[Sever]

Well, it definitely won't be gradual damage, since the goal of the energy drink is to evade damage. I'm going with either a few seconds stunned, or just (hopefully) moving at a slower speed.

[n00b1n8R]

So we have a defence toy, an anti-sentry drink and now what?

[jngrow]

So far, the Scout is still about being lethal up close, an annoyance at a distance, and about doing some damage and getting the hell out before things go tits-up.

Which means I'll still be getting half the points I would be as any other class.

So far, Scout update is disappointing. I don't need to be faster. Especially if it's going to replace my pistol, or bat. And wtf, another shotgun.

[CN3089]

Which means I'll still be getting half the points I would be as any other class.

Maybe you should get better as scout then maybe???

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Gaems/mvscoot.gif

I mean the only class I get more points on than scoot is medic and that's p much a given vhttp://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-shobon.gifv

[p0lar_bear]

Which means I'll still be getting half the points I would be as any other class.

The whole point of the Scout is to flank, deal damage, and run away before the enemy can retaliate, either going back for seconds when they're unaware, or letting your team handle it, as well as intelligence/point capture. You need twitch aim and quick wits to play the Scout effectively; if you're a twitch who can dodge around UT maps while pulling off flawless shock combos, bunnyhop around HL2DM maps while scoring headshot after headshot with the magnum, or if you just enjoy playing fast-paced games while being good at them, then you are a Scout. If you can't aim quickly and accurately or think fast, the Scout is not for you. If you find yourself unable to stay alive long or get many kills/points as a Scout, choose a different class.

None of the other updates have dramatically changed class purposes yet, why should the Scout get a major overhaul of core roles? If you can't play it, don't.

[n00b1n8R]

So far, Scout update is disappointing. I don't need to be faster. Especially if it's going to replace my pistol, or bat. And wtf, another shotgun.
When played right, the scout is the most killy class bar none, l2tf2.

[Sel]

Uhhh, if this drink allows him to dodge sentries then that'll be pretty lame :S

[Terin]

Pyros can still probably ignite a scout like this really easily, and then people can chase after him when the drink wears off.

[CN3089]

Uhhh, if this drink allows him to dodge sentries then that'll be pretty lame :S

Why? It's not like anybody plays engineer who's any good, anyway

[Pooky]

Why? It's not like anybody plays engineer who's any good, anyway

hey :maddowns:

[CN3089]

hey :maddowns:

~bonk~

[OmegaDragon]

If that does happen, then Convoy will no longer be interesting to play, the scout will just pop the drink right before the intel room guarded by sentries, then take the intel and run away :(

I don't want mah favorite map to not work with the updates D:

[CN3089]

mah favorite map

convoy

You need to find better maps http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-nyoron.gif

[p0lar_bear]

If that does happen, then Convoy will no longer be interesting to play, the scout will just pop the drink right before the intel room guarded by sentries, then take the intel and run away :(

And subsequently crash and burn from the sugar high out in the open where the rest of your team will lollerrape him.

[Terin]

Achievements had the specifications added to them very recently. Turns out the scattergun unlock is called "Force-A-Nature", and it can knock people around. There's probably going to be more to it, and I bet the update today will be on this weapon anyways.

No... it's another community map, Egypt. (http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/egypt.htm) That's a pretty boring map for me, but ah well. Fastlane is getting some changes it seems, and the Force-A-Nature got a mention.
features some really interesting uses of vertical space. Classes with the ability to ascend rapidly (Soldiers, Demomen, and Scouts using the new scattergun unlockable )

[Sever]

Today's news on the update is up, and it's highlighting another community map, CP Egypt, as well as changes to CP Fastlane. (http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/egypt.htm)

[n00b1n8R]

Oh cool, I actually like Egypt.

[CN3089]

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif http://www.teamfortress.com/scoutupdate/forceanature.htm http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-siren.gif

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c251/CN3089/Emoticons/emot-aaa.gif

edit: wow, site is getting hammered

[JunkfoodMan]

Yeah, so it's pretty much confirmed that the new weapon is a double-barreled shotgun of some sort, which has alot of recoil that can give the scout somewhat of a third jump.

[ultama121]

Hmm... I think I've only played on Egypt once or twice. Seemed pretty cool though. I vaguely remember being a soldier and hammering down at incoming enemies. :holy:

[Pooky]

Oh cool, I actually like Egypt.

^

Egypt is awesome. Bit too large for 24, good for 32 though.

[Syuusuke]

New running shoes.

[CN3089]

Somebody hasn't read the achievements list (it's you)


Also egypt is the worst custom map ever created and Sean Cutino should have his sdk rights revoked

[JunkfoodMan]

I just read the achievement list, and the force-a-nature sounds like a shotgun to me.

[jngrow]

None of the other updates have dramatically changed class purposes yet, why should the Scout get a major overhaul of core roles? If you can't play it, don't.

That's not really what I meant. I feel like I'm pretty good at Scout, my UT buddy also plays Scout and says that I'm pretty good. Scout is definitely my favorite class. It just feels like I can have a lot less practice/skill in other classes and get almost as many points.

[p0lar_bear]

Then you need to revise your playing style when you're using the Scout. If you're taking people head-on constantly, flank more. If you're getting swisscheesed by sentries all the time, turn up your volume and be more attentive for sentry beeps; if you hear some in an upcoming area, avoid it. Just keep in mind that the Scout is as tough as wet tissue paper; if your health is anywhere near half, you should be retreating.

[n00b1n8R]

Half?
Gosh, you chicken, give DEATH OR GLORY a go.
25% health to retreat AT THE MAX. shove your ass into cover so hard even the spys will wonder where you went until the very last moment.

[p0lar_bear]

Half?

Uh, yeah. For some reason my scout health has a tendency to magically disappear in 50% chunks when there's a heavy nearby. Not sure if that's related or not.

[Syuusuke]

A minigun shoots many bullets you know, it's a wonder that'll it go down almost immediately =D

Well, I started doing that pretty recently, but haven't seen the fruits of my labor, mostly because I only played about 2 hours of TF2 in the past 2 months or so. I should play more.

[Bodzilla]

heavys arnt that hard to take down.
a face crit scattergun takes down a full health heavy, as well as their vulnerable to flanking and from above.

bonk the heavys head.

[JunkfoodMan]

Scouts have a tendency to die from 4~ sascha bullets, 2~ if they're crits.
Also, they die from 1 shot of the rocket or nade, and if they health is 60-70 they tend to die from the splash damage.
I was hoping there would be something to increase the scout's health by a bit this update.

ahhahah what game are you playing


the scout is already overpowered, that would make him the only class anybody would play

[n00b1n8R]

Fuck, I saw a friend of mine (who's fairly new to tf2) take on a pyro and heavy, at the same time, with a bat and win.

They pyro and heavy player's were about as skilled as he was, he simply used cover and hit & run tactics.

[p0lar_bear]

Like I've been saying: playing the Scout is about using the Scout's speed to chip away at enemies while they're not paying attention, or for HP-weaker classes (sniper, for example), sneaking up behind them and putting a gigantic hole in them with the scattergun.

You Keep Doing It, But I Told You Not To
February 23, 2009 - TF Announcer

Some of you insist on breaking the rules, continuing to find new ways to exploit our honorable weapon unlock system. A system that is meant to instill pride in a person when they weild their hardwork, gunning people down with their glory. To show others what you have acheived. Something that is meant to be a status symbol, that you are an elite within the TeamFortress 2 community. That yes, you have unlocked the best weapons the game has to offer.

But some of you keep, despite all this, finding ways to exploit this system. Because we need to fix this exploit, the scout update pack has been pushed back to 'Until it's done.'

Do not fail me again. Users caught exploiting a third time will lose their steam accounts

Yours,
TF Announcer

The new shotgun looks pretty cool. Makes the scout a bit more of a hit and run guy allowing him to do more damage faster and then retreat immediately.

And there was no last update. So basically 3 meh community maps and the scout weapons. Ok, but compared to the other updates, pretty lacking.

EDIT: The spy stuff is pretty :awesome:, though.

[CN3089]

I. EAT. YOUR. SANDWICHES. I EAT EM UP!!

yessss LC spy patch but on all servers :jizz:

Gentlemen.

[CabooseJr]

I got the new weapons and such. I'm gonna be using the scout so much more often, especially when I need to get through some sentries.

[Sel]

I'm going to build sentries for the next 3 weeks...

Also new spy backstab animation, much faster so no more failed backstabs because they moved away in mid animation.

[PlasbianX]

I love how every damn server is like nothing but scouts and medics @_@

I'm the worst Scout ever. :smithicide:

[LlamaMaster]

It's going to take me years to get these achievements and unlocks.

I'm the worst Scout ever. :smithicide:
Try playing scout with bad FPS. It is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy harder.

[ultama121]

*Looks at p0lar's system specs*

Llama, I think you and p0lar might be on the same level of system performance. :eyesroll:

[p0lar_bear]

Half of it is shit hardware, the other half is that I am by no means a twitch.

So the fact that I can't aim precisely too well is further hindered by a fluctuating framerate.

[Pope]

Play some Quake or UT. Perfect for those scout skills.

Quake Live just opened it's beta too.

[n00b1n8R]

Got the FAN, prefer the scatgun.

[Sel]

Me too.

I'll probably just go for the stock stuff maybe the energy drink.

[JunkfoodMan]

I'm happy playing on servers with a cap on the number of scouts per team.
Seriously, this update is hella annoying. They should never have added the sandman, it just annoys the hell out of everyone.

[p0lar_bear]

At least everyone cares too much about achievements to go to another class.

I can't believe how many sentry kills I've racked up on stupid-ass Scouts.

[Sel]

They should never have added the sandman, it just annoys the hell out of everyone.

!!

That.

[thehoodedsmack]

Don't know if this was ever mentioned with the Scout update or not, but any news on when the next "Meet the Team" video is due?

[p0lar_bear]

Oh, it's probably coming soon (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time).

[jngrow]

Oh, it's probably coming soon (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time).
Heh heh, that was pretty funny.

[n00b1n8R]

Hint: the people doing the "meat the team" vids are now also working on TF2 comics.
We'll probably have to wait until at least the next update (sniper?).

[CabooseJr]

Like every update, I usually make a video showing it off. Here you go.

How do you people unlock the achievements so quickly? All the servers (achievementboxes) I've found have been shit all helpful.

Work together with friends.

why would you ever play on achievement servers

[n00b1n8R]

To grief :woop:

the pros have banned the sandman!!!

(no really)

Got mine last week by whoring achievements servers >.>

I'm gonna wait a while before I play again, just until all the commotion settles down a bit...

I swear Valve makes the achievements easier and easier with each class update.

If you're a good Scout, then these achievements are mostly a breeze.

I, on the other hand, can't seem to make much headway on Pop Fly. I can barely aim at lightspeed while on the ground, much less while jumping around like a spaz.

1. Get friend
2. Make him stand infront of you
3. Jump
4. Jump
5. Shoot!
6. Repeat steps 1 - 5 untill achievement is unlocked.

Damn me and my morals... I don't use Achievementbox servers. :gonk:

I have 15 scout achievements, and I have a feeling I need 16 to get the sandman.

One more to go, although most of the ones left are the hard ones.

or you could just play normally and unlock the achievements that way

This.

I think the only achievement I unlocked while playing "abnormally" was Triple Play; I was in a cp_badlands server that emptied out while I went idle, so I screwed around for a bit. Finally decided to cap all the points just for the hell of it got it, not realizing I would get it.

It just feels good when you try, try, and try and then finally get the achievements and unlocks. Especially for the ones that don't happen incidentally (i.e. A Year To Remember). It's even better when you unlock an achievement you weren't even trying for or didn't even know existed.

But that's just me. I know most fags online feel that they're entitled to the weapons and must have them at any cost. vOv

Well I unlocked the Sandman, I'm not that good with it though lol.

[CabooseJr]

Just practice. You'll get better with it.

[n00b1n8R]

the unlocks are dumb you're not missing much

[ODX]

the unlocks are dumb you're not missing muchI know, they lied to me about the Force of Nature :(
They said I could pwn nubs, then reload nice and slow, but does it reload slow? No, but it makes up for it by looking horrible, except the return to origin is nice I suppose.
