No new video then, probably. We still have one more unlock and two more days of updates though.

"ability to ascend rapidly (Soldiers, Demomen, and Scouts using the new scattergun unlockable )"
Confirmed, the new Scattergun will add a little push when you shoot

[/quote]the current one has knockback if you fire at point blank, I figured this was more along the lines of a triple jump ability but meh. The new shotty is going to be Force-A-Nature tho looks like

Actually, if this thing gives enough forceback when you shoot... I think I may be using the Sandman after all... touche valve... touche.

they better add proper multicore support, so I can finally get a high enough FPS to snipe well.

jesus christ any % chance to dodge bullets is incredibly retarded. i land a direct shotgun on a scout. now lets roll the dice to see if i hit him!
isnt the entire point of a fps to be skill based rather than an rpg where its half chance?

Oh well. Doesn't really matter that much.
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Radio Raheem - 02-21-2009
still the point stands. dont make him unhitable just make him hard to hit. give him triple speed or whatever. if i rocket him in the face i deserve that hit.
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Loqutus - 02-21-2009
The only way valve is going to save this whole thing is if Scout can't shoot while under Bonk's influence. But I don't think that's going to happen :/
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Radio Raheem - 02-21-2009
he could still do his invunerable run past your entire team and make atleast your scouts fall back to cover backcaps effectively leaving you a man down (2 chase 1 to be sure if he backcaps you lose) and killing your push. yay?
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - backfire - 02-21-2009
Anyways, here's my theory on the Force-of-Nature. It's pushes people back when you shoot them sorta like the pyro's airblast. It either gives backblast forcing you the opposite direction you fired with everyshot or only shots facing the ground. To offset this, I'm guessing it has less ammo per clip. Probably 2 or 4.Â
If this does work the way I think, then I'd be glad to give up a potential third-jump for a double jump + stunning baseball. Infact, it probably will require quite a lot of skill to jump once, look in the opposite direction of where you want to go, shoot, then look back and still be orientated. It's a good weapon that the inexperienced can use and the experienced can use much more effectivly fulfilling a goal Valve set... Reittering, touché valve, touché.
Damn you week-end. Why must you stop everything I care about. >
Re: HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH - Radio Raheem - 02-21-2009
rocket jumps work that way and they arent disorienting in the least if you just flick jump

Well remember the cooldown from after using it makes the Scout super slow as well, so if they aren't in a safe spot after using it, they're pretty much dead. Also I would figure rockets still work, it'd be stupid if it made the Scout fully invincible AND immune to any kind of knockback.
Still if you can pick up intel in this mode, it will functionally ruin Mach 4.
