my old trips work here \o/

wow rude

True or not, I'm pretty sick of hearing people say that a movie might ruin their headcannons.

TF2 is such a big, open univers. Even with the cannon stuff, it's so easy to shape and make "your own".

Also, isen't that what OC's are for?

Considering it was only sort-of announced on Nerdist and word spread from there, my prediction is we'll get an official announcement/ARG stuff sometime later this year, with the movie being sometime in 2014.

Maybe in time for TF2s 6th birthday?

I don't know. We're all guessing at this point, but if it's a prequel, I hope we find all the mercs being recruited in outlandish ways (Why did RED/BLU put a miniature TV in your toilet? BECAUSE FUCK YOU THAT'S WHY)

>>13603
Oh god, an origins video would be great. Seeing the mercs where they started. I'd love something like that.

Yes, it was a good holiday season full of trial and errors for the Secret Santa event. I enjoyed working on my prompt, now just waiting on mine as I got orphaned so just a much longer waiting game for me.

Regardless, happy holidays TF2Channers!

Thanks a lot for this. I know I'll be back next year!

I see the mercs as more combat-sexual than anything else. They definitely get much more animated when there's killing to be had. (Just listen to the Administrator on Payload missions when the bomb is about to reach the final terminus.)

Update: Now that I've used the vaccinator for more than five minutes, and have gotten used to watching damage types and switching resistance, I've got some brainpower left over to think about my übers, and holy socks this is fun. It's not that powerful of a medigun, but the amount of strategy involved is hnnnng. I've only been using this thing for a few hours, but I can already feel my concentration improving.

So I've come to a conclusion. Forget the Scottish Resistance analogy. It was a shitty analogy anyway. The vaccinator is like a Demoknight set: It's [probably] not viable for serious gameplay, and lameasses will complain every time they see it [moreso, however, because Medics aren't allowed to have fun] but it's exciting and using it every now and then keeps you sharp. So it's my new favourite pub toy.

Have fun waiting for one to drop.

Seeing more Miss Pauling and knowing that Ashly Burch is doing something SUPER SECRET with Valve, I can kind of see her playing Miss Pauling.

She's just put that fic up on the Afanfic board.

>>13476
Same here

Captcha says Puritanic... No, captcha, that is not a good description for this here conversation.

>>13478 here. It just occurred to me that it says things about the quality of the writers here that people who would not be the target audience (aka straight dudes and lesbians) like and read the stuff anyway. Good things. :)

>>13504
I was in another fandom previously where I think the vast majority of the gay porn (at least on the fansite I frequented) was written and drawn by lesbians. It doesn't really surprise me anymore.

You know, I have a theory.

For every fat joke that someone makes about Gaben, Half-Life 3's release gets delayed another day.

>>13329
We might have been to the same server that day.

I saw this just today on a X10 server. Hilarity ensued.

Sorry for the shit quality, my rig sucks ass.

>>13362
Well I never really claimed to be good at it...

The name in this post is my steam, If you'd like to message me there. I'd post my wrimo profile but it leads to some sensitive personal info.

Also! my internet's been shit lately, so I might not be able to respond quickly.

I recommend a book called "Making Shapely Fiction" by Jerome Stern. It discusses some basic rules of writing, general plot outlines, and character types that you can build from.

Other than that, I suggest you read as many fiction and nonfiction books and short stories from as many genres as you can. Then find what you like and start coming up with ideas and putting them to paper. From there, it's a matter of practicing your craft.

Again, I must emphasize that writing must be something that you enjoy, first and foremost. Doing it for any other reason really isn't worth the effort.

>>13378
Just once, I believe

>>13378
Do you already have a full account on Steam? If you don't, then definitely put $5 into your wallet and buy something from the Mann store.

Last year I did that right before the christmas event and got a free copy of Portal 2.

If you feel like it, I'd suggest you buy a set of Mann Up Tickets. You'll get to play on the official MvM servers, get to put progress in on your badge, and even have a shot at some hats and botkiller weapons. Definitely a good-value way to go, if you don't just want to throw 49 cents on a can of Bonk or something.

Yeahhhhhhh, I learned early on you don't mention anime-styled things around here.

Goddammit, you didn't learn a single goddamned thing from that ban I gave you, did you?

If you continue to make inane and terrible fucking threads like this you're looking at a much longer ban.

Knock it off already.

>>13360
thats already been taken care of

Okay, I'm really tempted to email Valve to resolve this now

But I dunno who to email and what to say

>>13310
http://www.valvesoftware.com/email.php?recipient=TF+Team <- I think that's right a recepient (there's contact us box in tf2.com)

>>13311
Ah, thank you. They didn't answer my email, but they answered someone elses'. Both Bombinomicon and Merasmus are voiced by Nolan North.

He is best known as Dr. Edward Richtofen from Call of Duty: Nazi Zombies, Nathan Drake from Uncharted, the rejected Cores and turrets from Portal 2, annnd several Heroes from DoTA 2, amongst others (he was in the TMNT 2003 reboot, and I believe he's also on Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes). On that show and Uncharted, he worked with Robin Atkin Downes (Medic).

So yes, in a way Medic has technically killed a Nazi.
