How do I get those nice yellow numbers in that TF2 soldier vid?
And what is the difference between the deep 'ding' and shrill 'ding' for damage?

I use community hud and get the nice yellow numbers.

And if you stick

tf_dingaling_pitchmindmg "150"
tf_dingaling_pitchmaxdmg "5"

in you config (I just have them in autoexec) if will range between those pitches based on the damage you do. It's real satisfying when you get a headshot or a good crit rocket into a group--it rumbles for a good while.

 

[moojito]

There's some change you can make to one of the config files that changes the pitch of the ding depending on how much damage you do. Playing mainly a spy, I get a reaaaaaly low pitched DOOOONNNNNNNNG when I backstab people

 

[rac]

I have never gotten a hat drop in tf2 before yesterday, and know my last two drops have been hats. Sorry twig

 

[desh]

What hats?

 

[rac]

What hats?

A safe n' sound which I traded for a whiskered gentleman and a hard counter.

I think Kuro has literally gone mad.

Kuro's always been on the grumpy side.

I mean straight-up insane.

He means fast horizontal jumps so that you can move around the map quickly without hurting yourself too terribly much.

Here's a quick intro. He goes over a bunch of stuff as well as roll outs on the common maps.

You don't need to perfect them before you start playing, but they're something to aim to.

I already knew I was way below the skill ceiling for soldier, now I know I am no where close

I may need to turn my sensitivity up

Well its certainly different. The numbers aren't as big though. Pretty sure that's just a font size somewhere... I don't know where.

I didn't play any worse, but those minimalistic team selections are blowing my mind.
Also hooked up another 32 man server board vs the 24/28.

Didn't notice the sounds. I actually probably have sound on hit disabled come to think of it. :lol

 

[Clydefrog]

What sensitivity do you guys play at? I think mine is 5.5 or 6

 

[n0b]

somewhere around 12-13

 

[(._.)]

I'm around 13ish. I think it goes all the way up to 16.

 

[Drkirby]

I think mine right now is at 11.5

 

[Clydefrog]

What the flying fuck? I'd be spinning like crazy with your guys' sensitivity!

 

[fallengorn]

somewhere around 12-13

Ditto.

Although, if I don't play for awhile, I have to work my way up back to my usual settings.

 

[Twig]

Um I have no idea.

I use my mouse's sensitivity buttons to adjust on the fly (though I rarely change from whatever the highest setting is).

 

[erpg]

Well, it has a lot to do with DPI and such, but holy shit. I'm at 3.1.

 

[Yasae]

ITT people post their ages.

 

[Blizzard]

I run mine at like 2.2 normal, 1.8 if I'm trying to train myself to hit anything at sniper. :lol

 

[Boonoo]

I'm at 1.

You really can't tell anything by the number, though.

The best way is to measure what your 360 is.

I think I'm around an 8inch for scout and a 5 inch for soldier.

 

[Oreoleo]

I'm at 1.

Indeed. Most mice worth a damn these days have their own sensitivity adjustments built into the driver software. What 1 or 2.2 or 13 feels like to me is probably not what it feels like to you.

Spoiler

3.2

You mean you move your mouse horizontally 5 inches to do a 360 as a soldier?

 

[Boonoo]

Yeah. Maybe a bit more. It maybe be more like 6 and 9.

 

[Stallion Free]

Woohoo, Telltale items are downloading in the latest patch. Now we just wait till Monday to get them? Or was it Tuesday? Damn I want my items.

 

[Boonoo]

Hot dog! They added Team Spirit Paint (which is, I assume, pain that's blue if you're on BLU and red if you're on RED). That should be a nice addition.

 

[Forkball]

There's also a new paint can called Team Spirit.

[edit]Damn you Boonoo. Some hats already change their color due to the team. I wonder if they will ever release red and blue paint cans separately so you can permanently have a hat of either red or blue.

Bonk helm comes to mind. I was planning on dying mine black.

Hmm, permanent red or or blue might get confusing. It would be nice to be able to have something like the Bombing Run or Sniper's bandanna be team colored, though.

teeheehee.


Heavy exploit fix yeeeeaaaah. Been rather annoying

 

[Dug]

Uh, am I the only one thats update is 4,000 mega bites?

 

[erpg]

Shotgun reload fix = best update ever.

 

[Boonoo]

Mine was 323.1 MB

 

[fallengorn]

Lugermorphs obtained from The Devil's Playground promotional event rather than through the Poker Night at the Inventory are now vintage.

Yay?

Added Companion Cube Pin

Wonder if it's going to be linked with first or second game. Maybe preorder?

 

[Boonoo]

Probably a preorder for 2. I was hoping for a cube or GladOS eye hat D:

Portal gun-medic gun!

Wouldn't mind a noise maker with GladOS taunts.

 

[Boonoo]

Nice.

What was wrong with the shotgun reload?

 

[Dug]

Instead of stopping the reloading animation after you had max ammo, it kept on doing the reloading animation.

 

[GurgleBot20]

Mines a little over 2000, I came to ask what it was for. And it sucks because I really wanted to play but I'm averaging 10 kb/s download speed on my campus's horrible internet connection.

 

[Lionheart1337]

Mine was 8GB

I think it's just the way Steam reads it?

 

[Yeef]

My sensitivities are:

2.2 for Scout,
2.4 or 2.5 for most other classes,
2.7 for sniper (rifle, zoom ratio 0.5) and
3.0 (huntsman).

I have a script that doubles sensitivity while I'm holding shift for quick turns and such.

That's all at 800 DPI, 7/11 windows.

Also, team spirit is awesome.

So check out this sweet Portal pin in the new update. If you haven't seen it.

 

[(._.)]

Nice.

Finally that hat looks good.

Yeah it was also part of the update, but it's unavailable.
http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Companion_Cube_Pin (strangely enough, if you click on the spy, it redirects to an engy picture wearing the pin). It will probably be for those who pre-order/pre-purchase Portal 2.

Fuck yeah!!! Portal 2 preorder goodies for TF2. Hopefully a hat also will be added.

 

[snack]

More preorder goodies!

 

[Wallach]

Sweeet, Team Spirit paint is exactly what I wanted. Team Spirit + Hobo's Poop Sock = best Pyro hat.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Just wondering - have you guys been banned for doing the Heavy and Engineer glitches?
