?ber Update.

[retroG]

the only thing i use the bat for is to make the second most annoying noise in the game

 

[Cacophonus]

but who uses that technique? Not to mention it messes your HP up bad.

Oh, and you can already turn with the targe. Just takes some thinking outside the box. Heck, if that trick still applies and stacks with the new +100% turn or whatever it is, you'll be able to do 180's while charging.

If you click the crushed bonk can on the day 2 page, you get that.

This means there are now 2 scout sets...

Anyway, details:

The Soda Popper
Scattergun
+25% faster reload speed
+50% faster firing speed
-60% clip size
No random critical hits
Builds 'hype' as you run.
When the hype meter is full, unleash mini-crits!

The Atomizer
Bat
Grants triple jump
Third jump deals 10 damage
-30% slower firing speed
-20% damage done

The Winger
Pistol
+15% damage done
-60% clip size

I could definitely see myself using this set.

Anyway, I am assuming that the Engie, Pyro, and Solly sets are next on Wednesday, and It'll be all about the Medic on Thursday.

Finally, here is the Official TF2 Wiki page for the Uber Update.

I can't wait to see the finished version of meet the medic, last time I actually was a little disappointed.

there was an unfinished version released:O

 

[TBone01]

The new mini gun is essentially just a large machine gun from the looks of it, so there would be no spin-up or noise associated with it... unless it was him cocking the bolt or something.

I love those Scout weapons. Also, that was just about the most obvious "hidden" TF2 page I've ever seen.

yeah there wasnt a single explosion

 

[death180]

The only thing I am looking forward to is the meet the medic.

I guessed it before with a previous update and it seems I was right.

 

[OzytheNerfer]

Here is the Polycount forum page for the Scout's set: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1175054&postcount=186

Also, here is the List of Polycount Pin owners and sets.

I think I just fell in love with The Winger. I'm not sold on the Atomizer, though. I have to figure that a Scout relying on his bat for actual combat doesn't need an inconvenience like it swinging more slowly (at the rate of every other melee) and doing less damage (see also: Fan O'War).

As for the Soda Popper...well, I can see Valve deciding to nerf it in the near future. Conceivably, there will be Scouts running around in circles in spawn just to build up Hype. Nevertheless, a cool update, and I wonder if that mask that looks like the Flash is going to be a hat in the future.

 

[HalfDeadMarine]

Oh man.... I want all that new solly stuff, its soooo shiiiney.

 

[? Frisky Dingo ?]

Finally some good weapons .

 

[roamer.]

I'm the misilero wants his misiles packs now!

 

[Noise]

with those boots, that shovel and the rocket jumper i will be invincible.

 

[Cacophonus]

I don't get the soldier pack. Basically a Black Box/Direct Hit mix (direct hit is annoying enough, least bad soldiers can't use it to shoot their own feet all the time), a mostly useless shovel (equalizer is still a direct improvement, even over this. Yes, I rocket jump. Alot. But I hardly ever melee mid rocket-jump.) Shotty is moderately useful- I prefer to just aerial my target instead though.

 

[Mr.SaJoRa]

now the update is starting to get good. about time.

 

[Ezekiel]

Am I the only one that noticed this on the soldier page? http://www.teamfortress.com/uberupdate/thedetonator.html

Yay!! More annoying Pyro weapons...Does this mean we'll be able to flare jump now?:drool:

 

[Cacophonus]

YAY for detonator. But how did you find that? :O.
