Sentry Placement... UR DOIN IT WRONG

The sad part is there is a second dispenser next to it.

That one's mine. I actually had my Sentry facing the right way - it was in the other corner, out of shot.

Boy am I glad I've found this club. I love TF2, and would be happy to join you guys any time.

Welcome mate. Pleasure to have you join.

Also, i was wondering, about the JPG screenshots, how do you take them :O I can only figure out how to take these weird pics that dont work, cuz theyre some crazy file or something.

PLEASE TELL ME!

You can bind them to Jpeg somehow, but I'm not exactly sure - I just use Xfire for mine.

You can type "bind f5 jpeg" in console every time you begin playing, but that is a hassle. I just recently downloaded IrfanViewer, which does a great job of converting the .tga's into .jpeg's.

F5 to take a screenie, then convert it with a program like Easy Image Converter (GIYF).

I played a match of dead ringer spy on 2fort, all I got were a bunch of Ambassador kills, several facefailstabs, and one failstab that should have insta-killed.

I feel ashamed.

Except for the fact that the server wasn't so full.

Dead Ringer is for pros.

Dead Ringer is really fun once you learn how to use it. It's really useful in certain situations, and it adds that Left 4 Dead feeling when you have to act and think quickly under a new circumstance. You never know when someone's going to shoot you, as well as the fact that you have limited time to pick a hiding place once you do. It also forces you to disguise as the opposition more often, and it teaches you how to act like the enemy.

Also, a Portal update was released today, but I have no idea what it means, anyone know?
_________

Updates to Portal have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted.

Portal
- Changed radio transmission frequency to comply with federal and state spectrum management regulations

Leaked Portal 2 information, it's about Black Mesa.

If Portal 2 is on its way, I'm excited. Heh, funny how they updated Portal now as after I've played through Half-Life: Source (my sister's playing through HL1 right now), I'll be going through Portal once again.

Sorry if this is a bad question, but did they actually update anything in Portal? Or is that just some kind of Portal 2 teaser.

One new achievement.

Maybe this should get back on topic soon. As much as the Portal stuff is interesting, it's not what the club is.

Now, if a Control Point in Well starts bleeping when a team caps it...

The guys at the Steam forum raped out the riddle to death already.

Engie update information.

I love getting these little insights into the design process for the TF2 team. It definitely is an interesting view on the process.

I've been researching this new Portal mystery VALVe has thrown in our faces. Take the in-game radios with you to all different maps. Apparently when place in certain spots, a new transmission is recieved with some weird info.

Portal 2 is coming, I can feel it.

The engie article was OK, but what I don't uderstand is why did they link to the youtube video instead of the actual Newgrounds link for the Spy&Pyro toon...and I'm pretty glad they didn't think that unlock was a good idea..it's going to be really hard to make this update work...

Probably because Youtube is more mainstream? It's still AlbinoBlackSheep's official channel, and he obviously posted it there, so it's not as if there's any difference to him or the TF2 team whether people watch it there or here.

LAST PORTAL POST, PINKY PROMISE

Ok, I've been playing portal, and this is the new challenge VALVe has set us up with:

Each chamber now has at least 1 or more radios in them. They all also now have a red light on them. When you carry them around at first, they're playing 'Still Alive', but carry them to certain locations (ect. The 1st chamber: The button), and the Still Alive theme will disappear in a wave of static and a Morse code will start beeping from the radio. As this happens, the light will turn green, indicating you've found a morse code message. There are 26 throughout the whole game to find.

At the moment, I'm stuck on test chamber 17. I can hear the static from the radio, just no Morse code. I'm really close, I just don't know where. People have interperated these messages, and they actually spell out real messages! For example, the test chamber 2's radio says 'The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.'

Derp

Anyway the Engie *Failed* Weapon sounds interesting, yet flawed so much.
I hope they release it to the SDK anyway, so Modders can use it. Auto Repair units... And I thought Turtle Fort Engies were tough to begin with.

Meet the annoying Scout

The part after the 19th second is REALLY funny.

Lol.Although it was really simple, it was also pretty funny.
Also, may I ask why are you guys talking about Portal?

It's interesting to hear a rejected item for the Engineer. I can't blame them for having difficulties with ideas for Engineer's new items. I'm glad they've been considering new buildings, though.

I can understand why they linked to YouTube but it saddens me when flash movies get a lot more recognition on YouTube when Newgrounds is the best place for them.

Exactly..and most of the time the author will be forced to upload them before anyone else does and gets all the glory...bah.

Fuck you, Valve. Stop trolling us with 9001 updates.

The cunts at Valve are updating Portal like mad, putting in riddles, puzzles, and various shit like that.

The video I posted is the updated ending of Portal. Previously, there was no voice talking about party escort positions and dragging you away.

I still don't see how this is related to Tf2.If you wanna talk about Portal things, make a new thread about it...they aren't going to put in Civilian mode, at least I highly doubt it..when VALVe gives us some obvious hints, they usually don't do it.
Take the "many updates coming down the pipe" for example.Everyone thought that the next update was going to be about the Demoman, and yet it was not released for a long, long time..
