Yeah it's been awhile since that happened. Also was nice to see some uncommon faces that normally don't join up for Jank. Hope it might happen again in the future.

Having a lot of fun watching these videos people are posting. :D

And that's another thing I love about the Jank. Replays! Absolutely need that on the next server.



Damn, that's sexy. More airpogo in comp please.

Haha, pretty much the first thing I thought of watching the video was "People like ExMachina that play on jump servers all the time must get really good at this..."

Noooo, not the Jank D:

I know I've been inactive for a while (blame a combination of work, Minecraft, Payday 2, Left 4 Dead 2 and just being burnt out on TF2 after playing for almost 2 years non-stop) but man, I was just about to hop back on for some Janky fun. :(

I'd totally go pour a 40 out if I didn't have carpeted floors, too.

I forgot to mention, I'd be best free in Saturday evening or whatever the general consensus is.

Haven't played in nearly a year and decided to pick this up again; interested to hear what has changed. Primarily a Spy (no to spycicle, yes to dead ringer) and Engineer.

How is the heavy weapons guy doing these days? I assume great, as always.

The cool kids complain about class balance. I don't mind people going heavy if there are only 1-2 total and they're not both using huo-long or natascha.

This. Generally I find it weird when Snipers just aren't annihilating Heavies when they step out of Spawn, this is why I enjoy being on the same side as Dogwelder when he's playing Sniper.

The new TF2 server will be officially undergoing stress testing Saturday Evening.

I will send out an official announcement via the Event Announcement system, with the server address to connect to and whatnot. I'll probably post it on here as well, if I can remember it.

Since this is a stress test (and other testing as well I suppose), don't be discouraged if something isn't working as expected. That's all part of the magical journey that we call progress.

There was a large patch in July that changed a good deal of items. Dead Ringer now loses cloak duration when you get hit while cloaked, L'Etranger increases cloak duration by 40% now. Mini-sentries no longer heal while being constructed, and a couple of Engie's other weapons were tweaked. Full patch notes here. Also worth noting the old Polycount sets have had their gameplay modifying set bonuses removed, replaced now with some aesthetic flair.

News from the frontier of the schema:

The Medic throwing animations have been updated with magic finger voodoo: his fingers will now adapt to the shape of the weapon he's holding. Hopefully this will be generalized to all viewmodels, especially the one-handed melee animations.

There's also a new AOE healing effect attribute, probably for the Medic throwable, a la the canned heal grenade. It'll probably work off of the Jarate framework, which may explain why for a while friendly players would block the effects of Jarate/Mad Milk. I have a feeling the new "heal grenade" will replace the Medic's primary. Perhaps a 2spooky jar of blood?

The Heavy also gets new throwing animations that appear to be for the Sandvich. No longer will Heavies launch their Sandviches from their stomach like delicious, health-restorative chestbursters. It is a new age of TF2.

Also, 15 minute SFM short and bread. Lots of bread.

Okay, here are the plans for the stress testing:

Server: tf2.capthatpoint.com
Time: 9pm (eastern time)


Start joining in around 8:45pm or so, real testing beginning after 9pm. Punch and pie will be served.

Let's fill 'er up! 24 slots PLUS replay!

Yeah, didn't enjoy my time on that server with like no class update items versus super speed demoman swords.
