I kind of regret pre-ordering Sleeping Dogs on Greenman Gaming instead of Steam now. I was worried that there would be a big content pack after seeing the last major title released by Square Enix was Deus Ex which also had a big content pack.

I don't really expect anyone to(I don't really follow TF2 related things very closely), but does anyone know whether Hitman: Absolution will be getting TF2 promotional items? I actually have pre ordered it on Steam and it would be a nice bonus to get some TF2 content.

The new map is... actually really interesting.

Mainly because we haven't really seen this sort of map theme used before, I always love TF2 maps with completely original assets.

The cleaver needs a unique draw sound, and it REALLY needs a "wooshwoosh" sound as it flies through the air

[C4rnage]

So, pre ordering of sleeping dogs, you get genuines?

Yes.

[thrawn2787]

if you knock off the new zapper does it go back to whatever level it was before? if not the new zapper is a pure fucking upgrade and valve just ruined spy balance YET AGAIN

[MrDestroyer]

The cleaver is the best weapon to come out of this update imo. The other things are pretty cool but I like the cleaver the most.

What's the point of it if it doesn't?

I like the groucho

Basically the sapper is useful in sentry nests; if you're lucky you can get the sentry/whatever down a level and slow down the engineer. (I believe it decreases it's level faster than you can actually kill it). But if the sentry nest is not protected by an engineer it's definitely faster just to use a regular sapper.

Interestingly enough, the new heavy weapon is great for spychecking and stuff I believe.

[NoaJM]

The Huo Long has a sexy firing sound.

plus a bugged sentry thanks to the spy's new sapper

[Metaru]

so this game is basically

yakuza, but in hong kong.

>A downgraded building will not have its health reduced to the lower level, and if upgraded afterwards will take on an additional health increase. For example, when downgrading a level 3 Sentry to level 1, it will keep the 216 HP from the level 3 state and will keep gaining max HP when upgrading it again.
>>Attaching a regular Sapper on a Sentry Gun affected by this glitch will result in a server crash.

PF AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is actually a cool promotional update. I'm really excited for Sleeping Dogs.
It would be great if one team was called the Sun On Yee Traid.

On the topic of sleeping dogs, that Just Cause 2 promo costume shocked me more than anything else. I'm genuinely interested in trying this game out.

[Captain Chalky]

This is how promo items should be done.

[Citizen Insane]

I want the damn hatchet, but everyone is selling their Mad Milk for a reclaimed each.

These recipes are getting really annoying.

for some reason i love the human cannonball.

A quick question from a translator in need:

What does the negative attribute mean? Does it mean that the sapper only takes one hit to be destroyed?

[J-RcZ]

Calling it, Pyro gets a new flamethrower.


WATERthrower.

It means the sapper deals no damage.

So....basically another method that involves switching between the two such as flamethrower+axtinguisher.

If only there was to be a waterthrower. Would be kind of cool(Or really, just plain hilarious/pointless) but even then it'd totally be blown out of even thought.(Pyro)

Well if the waterthrower doesn't have quick switch, it would not be easy as fuck to use.

The new minigun seems cool.

They should drop down to 2 scrap in a couple days, same thing happened with the pyromania weapons.

They won't because these are the most creative weapons we've had in a long while

But the pyromania stuff was pretty good as well, I agree that the sapper and cleaver are pretty cool, but the Baby-Face Blaster is more unique that the Huo Long minigun.

I need to get my hands on that cleaver :))

[HyperTails]

Holy hell, the new sapper is much superior to the regular sapper.
It deconstructs a regular building to level 1 WAY too fast.
