Do Want on Server right the fuck now...

[zaneyard]

i prolly wont play while the nades are on, they are the reason why i hate H3, play the demo man if you want nades.

Yeah... I'll go on the other two servers when you have 'nade nights.

Fuck grenades.  There's nothing more fun than getting killed by a random spammer fifty feet away from you. 

You mean demo/sniper/crocket?

You mean you want all classes to have spam powers instead of just a couple? 

[Wedge]

I'm not even worried about spam, these things look fucking worthless.  They don't appear to have any physics to them, they just kind of plop down a few feet away from you.  Aside from the spy grenade which is just retarded and broken.  The whole thing just feels like some cheap mod someone threw together in a few days, very amateurish and definitely not belonging on the server.

At least with those you can usually see where they're coming from.

I'm not sure about this, they look cool, especially the confusion gas, but I'm really not a fan of grenades in multiplayer games.  I'd be fine with using every so often, but I'm not sure how I'd feel about them becoming the new standard.

On a side note, what's wrong with Crit Rockets? It's a bit annoying to get killed by one, but so is being head shot or back stabbed.

I think the key factor is the randomness. Backstabs, headshots and to an extent backburner are all environment-conditional and, thus, can be considered skill-based. General crits are arbitrary.

Also:

I have nothing against nades which do like 30damage from close range, 50-70 when it is next to you and you can have only 1 at the time.

[A. Crow]

You two have clearly never played TFC

untrue.

I have a once-bitten-twice-shy aversion to modding TF2.  I will stay far away from the servers if this is ever tried.  If the spy grenade is part of a package deal (i.e. could not easily be server-disabled), even if I was initially willing I would then say "Kiss my ass."

I think the mass community objection to the nades is a clear indicator not to put them on the server. It's not my server however, and I would never tell you what to do. Just adding my tid bit.

I still want to try it for a night once, but all those models are in the game if you ever look through the model viewer in the SDK they are clear as day.

In fact theres also the old style spawn-defense turrets and they are even animated as well, unlike the grenades which arent skinned or animated.

[WTF Joel]

It would be retardedly fun to play for a night.  It would fuck the balance from here to hell, but would be an epic "just fucking around" night.

[HeK]

I demand you wait until I am back before we try this

There should be a megaTF add-on with the third-style grenades; Proximity mines, air-MIRVs, infected needles, motion detectors, spike traps, air strikes, jet-packs, det-packs, 20mm cannon, lava traps, ammo-stealing traps, feigning, magnetic traps, and laser-shooting drones.


Or perhaps not.

There would no longer be strategic planning at that point, it would be JUST LIKE a REAL war.

feigning

Spies used to be able to do that, and it was awesome

TF2 isn't balanced as is.
