I would assume they mean 2 then 1 with the GP style comment.

I have played both maps before, and they are both pretty good. CP_Junction should at least contribute to the map cyle of the Techious server anyway. Its a good sort of pub capture point map.

Watchtower is a good arena map, at least I thought so. Not that many people want to play arena now anyway

People vote it in but just rtv it out

I like arena as a bit of a break. The problem is you get a 50:50 split, which results in said problem, and you always get some people who go along with everyone else.

Goes against the reasons I play TF2

Respawning ftw tbh

You Have Failed Me

TF2 Official Blog wrote:

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

I've wanted to play arena_watchtower for ages (I love arena) but no-one else would

CP_Junction fails epicly... I'm very disappointed in valve for picking this...

I don't really understand the whole 'You have failed me' thing.
Did people get the Scout weapons early or something???

Gozzer · Thu Feb 19, 2009 2:16 pm

There was a bug where you could equip unlockable items using a console command, but any class could equip any unlock. That means a scout could run around with Natasha :wow:

De4dW0lf · Thu Feb 19, 2009 7:52 pm

:O that would be AWSOME!!!
I saw a pic of a medic with KGBs, it looked pretty amazing

Skillers · Thu Feb 19, 2009 11:32 pm

BAM!

Energy drink, makes you go fast.

Achievement names.

A DOUBLE CART PL MAP!?!

Gozzer · Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:28 am

Scout is holding a different shotgun. Thoughts people?

Skillers · Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:29 am

Looks more powerful but less accurate to me. Also, he's switched hands.

DHR-107 · Fri Feb 20, 2009 1:51 am

mOST OF THOSE NAMES MAKE SENSE TO THE ACHIVEMENTS TO GET THEM...

ffs sorry i cba to retype that

Year To Remember is probably gonna be the grinder... Get 365 points? No idea about "QuickHook" or "Fall Classic" however... Most involve points/bashing people and stealing intel...

Hmmm... those achivements look like he might be able to Pitch a baseBall as one of his weapons... And it can be a curve ball.... Maybe thats what his new gun does?

We already knew this - first update. We didn't actually link it here, though, just the main page.

We're currently missing;

The map in the background of that pic.
The scattergun replacement.
The achievement descriptions.
A "meet the" video.
Something else?

De4dW0lf · Fri Feb 20, 2009 12:30 pm

Achievements???

Interesting read, I'm not sure if they're real but they look pretty believeable to me.

Noone checking for bonus content?

Yea, I saw that in the pages source code

Lord Metritutus · Fri Feb 20, 2009 11:42 pm

And oh look, no one noticed they've now brought out the descriptions for the new achievements, and oh look, a name for one of the scout's new weapons, also implying it has a high recoil.

It suggests it will be called the 'Force-A-Nature'.

Ah, I had no idea about that... I didn't see that update at all, I assumed anything as interesting would be put in this topic lol...

And theyve put the Achivement descriptions up too ^^

"Force O Nature" sound sinteresting, I guess thatll be the name of his new main gun?

The 'First Blood' bonus sounds like a nice new feature though
