Updates of the Week (ongoing discussion)

[Didzo]

I'll be extremely happy if they fix the bug that causes the game to randomly minimize and restore on Windows 7 64-bit dual-monitor PCs....

I have that setup, but never had that issue.

[[fr31ns]Karrde]

Anyone else get an FPS boost this patch?

Game seems to be running much smoother for me

I sure hope so.

[copulatingduck]

that would own but i doubt it there is not much of a track record for trying to improve performance

[zaneyard]

well my skipping issues are gone

[Vandamguy]

game runs pretty good for me , since i dont have it installed.

[Duck, Duck, Goose]

I get some random lag spikes, but diglett says its the server. ???

[Chief]

i think caff needs to send in another ticket or whatever to the server cause boy after that engie update, i think hit detection is crazy. most notably, when i play sniper, i actually get headshots. this is impossible for me to achieve.

Nah man I'm getting headshots, too.  Most engies stand still when building their shit.

[PyroZombie]

my friend hooked me up with a button to drop the Mini's. I can now distract a heavy with a small sentry and attempt that 3-strike crit, that doesn't work.

[at0m]

Why did they take away the button to cancel out of the build menu? It shows as not bound now and I don't remember what it was bound to before >_<

wtf is the point of that? 25 extra hp?

[/quote]Thank You!

25 Health boost to a engi is retarded. I don't get a 25 health boost for a class that faces instant kills at a constant rate. Valve needs to replace this with a power-boost or a speed-boost, I don't care what anyone says about balance, it's one thing to be over-powered and another to be completely backwards.

I just mouse-wheel away from it, annoying but w/e.

[CaffeinePowered]

If its the server 9 / 10 times its the temp files that need a good cleaning, just poke me and I can clean them out

[copulatingduck]

literally every server I was on last night had people that would randomly warp/lag around. The server could probably use a cleanup but I don't think the update was kinda to the netcode

[beep beep diglett]

what the fuck is with the influx of utterly TERRIBLE medics lately? every single game there seem to be atleast 2 medics who dont eat my sandwich and run off randomly, leaving me to die when i thought i was gonna get ubered. jesus tittyfucking christ

Okay, I had one medic actually succeed in ubering me in the last 2 weeks. One of them I was absolutely sure had a broken mouse. I was taking damage at a steady rate, was ready to be ubered. There was NO spike in my DPS, just 100, 75 "UBER ME!", 50, 25 "HIT THE CHARGE!"

Can we have another medic update? I'm getting sick of all the engies WHO NEVER PUT DOWN DISPENSERS.
