MANA EDIT:

I see more smilie only posts and we will have a 100 character minimum on posts! You know.. To be more awesome than the official Steam forums that have the 10 character minimum on posts.

I doubt it's coming this week.

:/

Announce it on a bunch of Websites and then confirm it and... Well forget to release it.

Maybe it will be out today... But they don't usually do updates on Fridays.

EDIT:

Lawl... Early Next Week.

Will be out next month probably.

yea, that's not very reassuring. :/

[coda 1]

*smack* bad prime.

but yea, the lack of update sucks. of course, the game is pretty well balanced now, and i have a feeling we're going to have some really annoying medics once it comes out, ie healing spies to get acheivements. i like tf2 the way it is presently

[DarkClaw 0]

I say send out all achievements and unlockables at once, that way people can start on their class of choice right away.

[PriiME 0]

i cant wait for medic acheivments it is my second best class!!!!!! and.....

SMACK..... coda

but it would be nice to release all at once. it would be a lot more fair. on another note i nheal spies and uber them

I sure hope it's next week... This time.

[coda 1]

eh idk, it sounds like they'd just be making the game too complicated. the beauty of tf2 is in it's simplicity.

[DarkClaw 0]

It's actually more complicated than it seems

[PriiME 0]

Yes I was going to post that. Hard at work on his 42 inch monitor... leveling up his character in WOW. Err I mean making the next TF2 update.l

I tried playing Halo on a 32 that close, and it was too ridiculous.

Any bigger... I have no idea.

I settled for a 22... although now I think I could have gone for something a bit bigger, 24 - 26 perhaps. But it was also twice the price.

[PriiME 0]

mine is 19 inch and i sometimes think about going bigger too. but 19 is still pretty good size when sitting so close

I played TF2 on a 64inch at 1920x1080. Was pretty nice . Would love a monitor of that size for myself :/.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valve toned down the achievements! No more 10 million healing points or 8 buildings to kill in one uber.

Its now 1 million and 5 buildings. Almost makes me wanna do it legit.

Here's the new screenshots from Neowin's final build test on Friday:

SUPPOSEDLY it's now coming Tuesday. Although it was already finished by Friday >_X

Probably... some back end problems that they have. I mean it is Valve..

[Mana 3,867]

Well i'm set for the Chief of Staff achievement:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/Mana/stats/TF2

Most health healed:989,829 (as Medic)

[Doxt 1]

haha nice mana, so I assume it counts stats you already have?

Yes, or else i'll go waste a few minutes for another million heal points!

<br /><br />

Now... the obligatory:

http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time<br<br />

Look for it within the month = "just after" April 15<br />

"just after" April 15 = the week of April 20<br />

the week of April 20 = Next week<br />

Valve realizing 10 million healed is an unrealistic goal? So they aren't retarded monkeys! The 8 would have been impossible and impractical. 5 is more realistic, but really good demos get 3 sentries in a single run, if you manage to scrape off two dispenser in the way, then its very nice. I wonder what they were thinking when they set it to 10 million though .

[Mana 3,867]

1 173 minutes = 19.55 hours

I seriously would of preferred 10 million healing points... That would of guaranteed an exclusivity for some of the weapons to me and few others!

[Rambler 0]

lol, of course Mana!

You can definitely rig a clan practice where a medic and demo just destroy the sentries anyway... guaranteeing your team medic has his special weapons. /shrug.

But that's not nearly as much fun as doing all the team achievements alone... By myself!
