Speculations about the next Major Update

[KinCryos]

so last month, Valve mentioned that they are working on a Moonbase with "a whole bunch of interesting new gameplay"

one of the recent updates to TF.FGD added some new gametype entities (simple things in the map that declare what gametype is being used, like tf_logic_arena and tf_logic_koth)

• tf_logic_boss_battle
• tf_logic_gasworks
• tf_logic_raid

there also is a new entity called bot_controller which is used to create a bot and control it. it can queue commands to the bot to move someplace, attack a target, switch weapon, or defend the place it's at after executing its movement/attack orders (with an adjustable distance it's allowed to move while defending)

my guess is that Boss Battle will be used for something like VSH (but the boss may possibly have allies with it for support)
I have no idea what Gasworks entails
my guess for Raid will be something similar to MvM, only the Mercs will be on the offensive this time.

I wonder if this is gonna be Valve's version of Vs. Saxton Hale

 

[KinCryos]

in the April 1st update, a trigger brush called trigger_player_respawn_override was added. this thing will override the respawntime of anyone who dies within it (setting the override to -1 effectively disables it)
one possible use of this is putting it at spawn exits with a filter_activator_tfteam applied to it so if anyone is spawncamped, they can respawn sooner than usual

Don't care.

Some of us do, it's a matter of how we can expect the game to change in the near future. If you don't care, then you should've just let the thread alone
Here's the door, l8r

HYPE!

really, it would be cool to see raid or a valve version of VSH.

i am even more excited to see the new weapons coming out with it? like maybe an effect for airshots or meatshots given? lol

That would be a sweet change of pace if in MvM we would go on the offensive!
Even though I'm still waiting for them to put in the transportation game-mode with the civilian

 

[Pinker-tan]

cool

Maybe we get new weapons this time, unlike the past year and a half.
