Restart Steam to update your TF2.

Added anti-bunny hopping code

Not sure I like the sound of that - I'll have to see how it plays.

It did downloaded an update but when I press "update news" it shows that Oct.9th is the latest .. why ?

Added anti-bunny hopping code

I've never seen anyone bunny hopping in TF2. :/

 

[Apocalypse89]

Still waiting for the demoman un-nerfing...

 

[Hellrider]

Still waiting for soldier ****ing nerfing,the class is way overpowered.
Demoman isn't hard at all now..I kill easily with sticky bombs and the normal ones too..

 

[Mutley]

Still waiting for the demoman un-nerfing...

I find him the most powerful class. :O

Really though, classes are as good as the player behind them.

 

[Apocalypse89]

His sticky bombs are alright...but his primary grenades become useless once as soon as they hit a surface, which defeats the whole purpose of an indirect fire class. They need a major damage upgrade, I stood right on top of one as it exploded and lost less than 1/4 of my health. Either that or increase the splash damage range, as that would at least make the nades good for "softening up" enemy forces without massacring them.

Not sure I like the sound of that - I'll have to see how it plays.

From what I can see bhopping (the HL2 way, not the ubar-hard HL1 way) did kinda work but the speed bonus was minimal. Unless there's another way I was missing.

It shouldn't make a major difference.

 

[blackparty]

Noooo my bunny hop, my precious bunny hop!

 

[soulslicer]

Fixed physics crash involving bad ragdoll friction values

'

FREAKING FINALLY! I have crashed three times because of that, twice when the train hit me, and it crashes with some ragdoll error message.

 

[Roland Deschain]

The demoman is a defense class and at this point his abilities reflect that. I only play him when my team is playing a obligatory defensive map and when the spy in my team is useless and can't take out the sentry gun.

You can bunnyhop...

From what I can see bhopping (the HL2 way, not the ubar-hard HL1 way) did kinda work but the speed bonus was minimal. Unless there's another way I was missing.

It shouldn't make a major difference.

You can get a major huge speed increase with the demo sticky bomb jump...getting mass speed and maintaining it by bunnyhopping.

Noooo my bunny hop, my precious bunny hop!

It still works blackparty

Not anymore muahahahaahah

 

[Acepilotf14]

Pitz taught me how to pipebomb jump... we can still do that, right?

 

[CyberPitz]

Not anymore muahahahaahah

Uh huh! Was doing it just as easy as before

Pitz taught me how to pipebomb jump... we can still do that, right?

Yup. They won't remove that. It's a feature they meant to include.

 

[Acepilotf14]

Yaaaaay!
Now I can still jump on top of buildings and rain hell on the noobish snipers!
yayayayaya
demo ftw

 

[-Psy-]

My FPS has been reduced slightly and all the servers I've been on with more then four players have been horribly laggy and unplayable.

 

[Teta_Bonita]

Ping is higher, fps is lower, and I cant see the status of the intel/cp any more. So far I'm not digging the new update.

 

[sp0tz]

I've never seen anyone bunny hopping in TF2. :/

Me neither... but i don't care anyway... not the bunny hopper but in a game like tf2 it doesn't disturb me if others do it...

[*]Fixed a weapon switching exploit that allowed Snipers to fire slightly faster than intended

Sounds kind've like some of the Halo bugs
