Hey Borgnine, is there a sexy time mode in TF2?

Also I'll never understand you green reticule people. Of course it stands out from the rest of the world, because it's fucking ugly. Here's an idea: have an aesthetically pleasing white circle, and when an enemy is directly in the center of your screen, push the button.

btw, what the fuck is with the clusterfuck of related videos at the end of the videos? It is horrible.
I'm feeling lonely Borgnine, I was just asking if there's sexy time in TF2.

Mine is lime green and my aim still sucks. Though I've pretty much given up on Scout. Pyro/Spy/Medic 4lyfe.
Also there was this funny random on the server yesterday who was calling the Backburner OP and saying he was glad it was nerfed.
He left before I pointed out that the default Flamethrower is being buffed to current BB damage, and BB will still be at current strength as a result.

So is there a case to be made for vanilla flamethrower now?
no...?

Lower airblast cost than the backburner at the expense of not critting from behind.
But why use either of those two when you have the Degreaser?

Take it from someone who plays Spy 99% of the time.
Spies can be worthless if the enemy team is competent. A lot of the times people are so paranoid of a Spy that they make it almost impossible for me to play. I find myself going after the less fortunate people and avoid the good people as much as I can :/

Honestly, I'm mostly just looking forward to loadouts. Switching weapons around gets tiring.

I hated when I'd play spy and do something like cloak and think "I'll go in that corner!... wait, he'll expect me to do that, so I'll not stand there..... but hang on a minute, going into that corner would be so obvious that everyone would expect me not to do that, so I'll go and stand there! They'll never expect that.... unless..."
and so on.
Basically, that's why I play demoman now.

Then you will probably some jersey for TF2 for preordering FM12?
Just a few more hours until the updat! I sadly don't have enough metal to afford any of the new hats, but oh welllllllllll.
Don't be a quitter, Corn!
On the subject of buffs/nerfs, I really hope the recent beta changes (tomislav, widowmaker, basher, reserve shooter, etc.) all make it in with the update.

So, the Box of Garbage is a new temporary crate I guess?
But what is this "broken bottle" and "hot dog expert?"
EDIT: And the counterfeit hat is hilarious.

Source Engine Changes (CS:S, DoD:S, TF2, HL2M)
- Fixed an issue with the multi-threaded renderer which could cause a crash on map change
- Adjusted whitespace to improve formatting in status command output
- Changed stats output to show KB/s instead of bytes/sec, added a connections column, and changed the users column to "Map changes"
- Fixed game servers not being able to execute the retry command due to the dependence on the connect command (which is not executable by game servers)
- Made sndplaydelay executable by servers
- Server frame rate is now based on the tickrate of the active Source mod, not the fps_max convar
- Server processing delays have been reduced, especially for servers on modern Linux kernels
- Entity processing logic has been optimized to significantly reduce CPU usage on full servers
- Multi-threaded server code is now enabled by default under Linux (already enabled on Windows)
- An exploit with non-printable characters causing lag on Windows servers has been fixed

Team Fortress 2
Manniversary:

- Added loadout presets -- each class can now store four complete loadouts, including weapons and cosmetic items, and change between them with the press of a button.

- Characters can now equip two misc-slot items at once
- Added a new in-game abuse-reporting system (see "Capture abuse report data" under "Miscellaneous" controls)
- Non-newly-released weapons in the store can now be tried out for free once per week! This will give you a fully-functional version of the weapon to be used in-game for no cost. If you decide you like it, you can purchase it for a discount during the trial period.
- All items purchased in the store can be used for crafting and can be traded after a few days
- Added a new startup music track from Meet The Medic
- Integrated with the new Steam Workshop to enable the publication and management of community contributed content
Maps:
- Added new community control point map Gullywash. Stamps are available in the store to support community map authors!
- Barnblitz is now available for offline practice
- Frontier: various geometry fixes
- Gorge/5Gorge: added team-specific func_nobuild brushes in elevated forward spawn areas
Replay:
- New camera shake functionality added for replays that are not sufficiently dramatic
- New slow-motion functionality added for replays where even camera shake does not provide sufficient drama
- Added support for recording voice chat into replays
Items:
- Pocket Medic can now be equipped by the Soldier in addition to the Heavy

- Bonk Boy and Foster's Facade are now misc slot items
- Fixed The Director's Vision not playing animations correctly for all classes in the loadout screen

- Hat of Undeniable Wealth And Respect animations have been added. Really.
- LOD models added to several older cosmetic items
Response Rules:
- Reduced the chance of many response lines occurring
- Responses related to cart progress no longer play when disguised
- Players will now always call for a medic when low on health or when on fire when a medic is under the crosshair, whereas previously the character would ask the medic to follow them
- Named base items will no longer trigger responses that were supposed to be for new item variants
- Added additional Jarate hit responses
- Demoman:
- Added achievement award response
- Removed "I didn't need your help y'know" line if being healed by a Medic
- Saxxy kills will use the same lines as kills from the frying pan
- Taunting with The Pain Train or the Saxxy now plays the same taunt as the grenade launcher
- Added a taunt for The Ullapool Caber

- Added a previously unused golden wrench kill line

Bots:
- TFBots have a percentage chance of noticing weapon fire based on their difficulty level. Easy bots are fairly oblivious, and Expert bots notice pretty much everything.
- TFBots now treat certain weapon attacks as "quiet" (Spy knife, cloaking/uncloaking, some melee weapons, fists, etc). "Quiet" weapons can only be heard by TFBots when nearby, and their chance of being noticed is halved if the environment is "noisy" (ie., lots of non-quiet gunfire going on in the area). This greatly improves Spies ability to backstab TFBots without the entire team immediately turning on them.
- Spy bot improvements:
- Spy bots are much better about circling around and backstabbing their victims now
- Improved Spy bot target selection in some situations (ie: clusters of sentries and enemy players)
- Spy bots will give up on an attack and retreat if an enemy sentry gun aims at them

- Spy bots now have a simple notion of when their cover is blown" now
- Spy bots lead their target's position as they chase them down for a backstab now
- Spy bots don't go after victims until setup time has elapsed
- Hard and Expert Spy bots avoid looking at their prey until they get close and go for the stab
- Easy Spy bots don't avoid enemies, or try to get behind before stabbing
- Normal Spy bots don't avoid enemies
- Fixed bug where Spy bots would jump against the enemy spawn gates during setup time
- Medic bot improvements:
- Medic bots stick much closer to running patients now
- Medic bots stick much closer to their patient if they have an Ubercharge ready, or are deploying their Uber
- Medic bots hide from Sentryguns now, too
- Pyro bot improvements:
- Pyro bots are less "pushy" with their compression blast, but will use it against Ubers and to get enemies off of a capture point
Other:
- Razer Hydra support can be enabled via "sixense_enabled 1" in the console. See http://sixense.com/tf2 for details.
- Added "tf_allow_taunt_switch". Set to 0 for disallowed (default behavior), 1 for old bug behavior, or 2 to allow weapon switching any time during the taunt.
- Screenshots can now be hooked up to the Steam Community automatically. There is a new option to control this under "Miscellaneous" in the Advanced Options page.
- Fixed gold ragdolls playing custom death animations when they should be locked in a pose
- Fixed Buffalo Steak Sandvich not having a cooldown if the Heavy is at full health.
- Fixed touching a cabinet while under the effects of the Buffalo Steak Sandvich removing the mini-crits but not removing the melee weapon restriction

- Fixed net_graph not updating server framerate when FPS is greater than 1000
- Fixed game servers not being able to execute the retry command
- Renamed tf_show_voice_icons to mp_show_voice_icons
- Updated the localization files
