I can't really conceive of any way they wouldn't suck. They'd have a huge number of knock-on effects, possibly completely altering the OvD dynamic.

Podcast 17 mentioned our teaser!

They didn't actually mention anything from the video. They mostly reminisced about TFC and recommended that people play TFC if they haven't before.

Nope. Still some stuff to finalize and/or test (warpath, training, slowfield sounds, and some others).

oh hai! While your here.. have you still got any old FF source files we might need to have for any reason?

Actually that reminds me. Did you ever work on shutdown2 in any way? We need a lights.rad file that was used when it was last compiled. We can't correct any lighting errors because it compiles looking competely different to what it currently does

At long last, we're close to releasing our next patch, 2.42. We're currently in the process of release candidate testing and are shooting for an early June release date.
It's June, so get it the fuck out!

(some Braid spoilers in that video)
"Infamous" because ever since playing Braid, I was always babbling about how much of that game could probably translate over to FF as abilities, buildables, grenades, etc. Shit, the scout had a clone/decoy in one version of TF, which was kinda like the Braid clone thing except not nearly as cool as the Braid clone thing.

I was originally thinking the engineer should get a new slow field buildable, but I think the HW mirv replacement is a good idea as well. Great job to squeek & co. for actually making it come to fruition. Now just call it the Braid Nade and we can all party.

I still think it'd be cool if the scout got the braid rewind ability...

OMG it's been so long since I've played Braid that I didn't realize that's where we stole it from.

The reason I liked the engineer buildable idea was so you could setup slow fields behind walls and around corners, where maybe scouts can't just get past it easily and it's always up. Someone would have to get in from the other side and kill/disable it.

Or say the buildable slowfield had a rate of fire, was proximity based, and had ammo/recharge. So if the scout had the decoy thing, maybe he sends the decoy in first, then busts through the slow field at normal speed. Or use some teamwork, have someone turn on the slow field, then the scout concs through.

Maybe too crazy though, so the quick release grenade is probably smoother for FF gameplay.

I also remember way back in the day, Valve showed a screenshot of the Spy about to kill someone with a garrote or whatever in TF2. Always thought it'd be cool to get that in FF somehow, as an alternative to the spy's knife or something.
