shoutouts to degreaser/flaregun/powerjack being the new rollout for HL

there's little effort needed in tossing community items in, they get a good amount of money off of it, and they can say that they directly help the community by giving them a free hot tub filled with cash. no reason for them NOT to do it

my post still holds true

remember when having two demos was allowed, way back when

if you sincerely believe the demoman is "balanced" then you haven't been looking at the same metagame everyone else on the planet is looking at

the demoman is so balanced that you have a single spot in 6s entirely dedicated to him, when even roaming players sometimes get to switch

new fish flavor text:
+25 health
-it is a fish
-why are you expecting a fish to hurt people
-stop that

turn current fish into "vintage fish", rotten texture and all, w/ vintage fish still functioning as usual

hey wait I just realized, were they paying attention to that weapon balancing thread a while back that devolved into pyro discussion? sal DID say he wanted the first post to be a quick overview of weapon problems so some poor old employee didn't have to deal with us yellin' at each other

people are saying that battalion's backup will "finally be useful in 6s" as if it hasn't already been banned for being too good on viaduct

might actually be decent in HL now tho, who knows

Not many videos of it that I can find, but for anyone lazy (read: me) here's someone scrimming it in 6s

e: jesus christ I just looked at the UGC forum for the first time in forever to see the feedback. all of these complaints are literally just "this map wants me to have team composition and I can't rdm to win, please go away"

please don't make changes based on low-level 6s players, get people on invite or intermediate or even a high-level open team

thought this was a highlander version of badlands

this is probably 100x better than a highlander version of badland, good shit.

only thing I have confidence in arguing is that we shouldn't have RED spawn be like right beside C, even if it was just a really simple change like having the door more to the left (assuming perspective is that third picture), so they still have to walk to it

though then you get into problems with them walking right near an important choke point, so that probably wouldn't work. dangit.

hasn't there been a custom 4-stock grenade launcher model for years now

you'd think they would just be like "hey here have a chunk of money we'll be taking this" by now

star's server is 100x more competent than most pubs though, b/c it tends to mostly consist of pub stompers + some HL/6s dudes here and there because of the dudes running it

can't be as bad as badlands pubs tho

also also, should note

the way those first two paragraphs are worded implies that the map fixes are just one thing they're touching on
