Updated the Gunboats to absorb damage from any self-inflicted rocket blast that doesn't hurt another player

 Well, that just boosted up the usefulness of these things by a bunch.

Indeed. Now I want them even more. ♥

You don't put boats on your feet!  You put BOOTS on your feet bro!

Looks like the update has sorted out a good few problems.

Assuming it actually sorts them out. I know I remember someone bitching about the Scottish Resistance and about how you couldn't sticky jump. Kinda know why, now. I was kinda puzzled, but maybe that's because I stare at my stickybombs when I jump like that.

And the stun things? 'Bout time. Was getting kind of annoying.

The only one thing I don't like is the 'fix' to the sandvich plate, being able to just drop it while on the move and replenish some HP was extremely useful in a pitched battle.

You don't put boats on your feet!  You put BOOTS on your feet bro!

But... gunboats!

I ASSUME it's just like a second or two where you can't pick it up.


I do that too, but I've also had times where I wanted to heal my burning medic, and I pick up my own sandvich.

[Zai]

You don't put boats on your feet!  You put BOOTS on your feet bro!

Except they are officially called Gunboats.

And what?! You don't put boats on your feet? But that's all the rage these days!

And I've had problems since the update with my loadout reverting to regular weapons. Someone else had this problem to, and the way to fix it was to disconnect and reconnect. But I only played on the DFC server, so it may just be the server.

I finally got a computer that can play TF2! I've kept up with the updates for like a year because I'm interested in the game and Valve updates more hilariously than anyone else, but I finally got to play today. I played as a demoman and killed someone with stickies, but died three times. Then I had to go to some family thing. But I'll be playing more soon.

[Zai]

Make sure you play on the DFC server sometime with the rest of us. And join the group too if you aren't in it already. Server is at:

217.163.31.206:27015

[Greiger]

I thought it was odd I saw a penguin on the server.  That was you then I assume penguin?

"A penguin" was PoH?

[dragnar]

If so he's not at all bad for someone new at the game.

[PTTG??]

Hey!
Where is everybody?

Also, any chance we can get some non-arena games?
