Heck, I got "mixed akimbo" working in ONE DAY, literally. You know what's even more interesting: HL2 already has code in it for some sort of "mixed akimbo", or at least distinct left and right view models (it supports up to four view models, actually). And it's wrapped around comments that emphasize "TF2"... Hmmm...

Wow :) I can't wait, people keep finding out cool bits of leaked things about tf2 in the sdk :E
 
what does mixed akimbo mean exactly. does that mean you can have either 1 or 2 guns at the same time.

Like in Halo 2. Wield two guns at the same time but they can be mixed. Like a M4 along with a MP5.
 
How the hell would you fire both? Heh. Keyboard and mouse are a little different from gigantic-Xbox-controller..

Left mouse button for one weapon. Right-click for the other.

kinda off topic but whats with the gloglebag and glogleunit things?

the answer is within everyone, but no single person, only truly enlightened ones know.
 
Would there be an easy to way to make a mod for mixed akimbo in HL2? It wouldn't work with some things like the rocket or grav gun, but shooting two pistols or overwatch rifles at the same time would be sweet. It would also be fun to use the two guns at once and turn up the damage that enemies do... for an added challenge.
