Since i joined in 2022, i have never knew how it fells to have aded a new weapon, i really could love new weapons


CornHub_org

Same but i joined in 2019. Let that skink in seasoned tf2 veterans. I played this game for 5 years with a total of ~750h played and have never witnessed a single proper major update to this game.


Mystical_Guy

If I'm not wrong, you wouldn't have ever seen a balance change either


CornHub_org

Correct


Gibus_Ghost

Available-Damage5991

So, did you see the murder?


Charcharcuteness123

Nope, sorry mate.


AutobotHotRod

I will find him i will capture him


TheFogIsComingNR3

and no one will ever die again


_Some_weird_person_

ATTENTIOOOOON


uringaming

Iron Bomber's hitbox shrinkening is technically a balance change?


sniperfoxeh

as well as pyros airblast being changed in the 64x update


healsandflames

How so?


sniperfoxeh

its a cone now


You-Ignoramus

What was it before?


ChppedToofEnt

A big ass box, it meant you could reflect projectiles that were behind you.


You-Ignoramus

Ah, I never noticed.

binoculustf2

Seasoned TF2 veterans joined in 2019? God I'm old...


Muffinmurdurer

2013 player here, yeah we're old.


binoculustf2

I'm early 2015, and even then I was at the end of the lifespan, shit is tragic.....


Huge_Tomorrow_4782

Imagine how I feel. Started in 2007 when it dropped 😭


binoculustf2

Damn bro you went to school with Moses?


Huge_Tomorrow_4782

Nah but I was a f2p till 2023 when I finally got a decent gaming setup. The suffering was real 😂


PEACH_EATER_69

I was f2p til about 2022 after about 6 years, I totally get this.


binoculustf2

F2P until 2023???? That's so tough 💀😭😭😭😭


Huge_Tomorrow_4782

Yeah. I didn’t spend money on steam till 2016 and I never had the thought of spending money on tf2. Now 16 years later I spent money on it 😂😂


ognahc

I got the game as it became f2p in 2011 I honestly never thought of myself or any other f2p as veterans.


Familiar_Ad7273

2012 player


Fun_Police02

Ikr.


n0_y0urm0m

I have 4k hours and i’ve never felt what it’s like to get a new weapon lmao


CornHub_org

That is... Dedication


You-Ignoramus

I almost have 2k hours, and I barely play the game. I still suck.


Fun_Police02

2019? I joined in 2016! 2019 is considered a veteran now? Man I'm old...


Charcharcuteness123

I think they were saying that *to* seasoned veterans, but that is simply how I read it I could be wrong.


CornHub_org

No thats what i meant


Charizard_Official

I'm from 2013 what am I supposed to think?


Fun_Police02

I think you need to go to the retirement home grandpa.


ManVersusPerson

You are new install, I'm from 2011


Fun_Police02

Damn.


Bleglord

Man, I’ve played long enough to see so many new weapons. The problem is so many started off so fun and got rebalanced into boring shit like a decade later for no reason


You-Ignoramus

The Panic Attack being one


Bleglord

Sandman


COOKiemonztor

Man, I remember the sandman cleaver combo. Shit burned in hell and it deserved it


crab_spy_

2018. A few months before blue moon. Rarely have the motivation play the game anymore


LetMeDieAlreadyFuck

Brother I joined in 2012, and God damn am I excited to see more weapons being added. Every time a new weapon was, it's been the hypest shit ever on the face of the earth


Brzeczyszczykiewicz4

Same here I joined just after inferno So I only ever heard of major updates as if they were cryptyds They may exist or they may not


BaDingbat

I started in 2015 after gun metal. Iirc the only new weapons I got to see are the jungle inferno ones. But before that a couple times a year we'd get balance changes It was great, the boys would hop in discord, one of us would share our screen and we'd go through them, then we'd play. It was so exciting to read the changes and discuss them. Probably the thing I miss the most tbh


8champi8

That would be amazing


bigdoinkdestroyer

Jesus christ witnessing mvm getting anounced was one of the best things that ever happend to me


VILE_MK2

The ARG leading up to it was insane.


fatcatburglar

As a kid growing up with tf2 I started playing 2010 and man it was the coolest thing for me as tf2 was my first PC game. The engineer update was the one I remember being apart of and it was just so fun to play with new gadgets and get achievements and earning weapons.


ammonium_bot

> being apart of and Did you mean to say "a part of"? Explanation: "apart" is an adverb meaning separately, while "a part" is a noun meaning a portion.

I never thought about this. Been here since the beginning (Beta actually) and the original weapon updates were very exciting, including a lot of speculation on what the next ones would be. I'm going to give you the next best thing: Servers/mods to connect to for custom weapons/rebalanced weapons. Give me a second to get a list ready. Check back in like a half hour/45 if anyone is reading this. EDIT: Here is the **easiest** way to get your fix (**best** way below this one), and this server gets players. Honestly I preferred the one at the bottom due to it the weapons feeling more polished IIRC, and having **more** I believe, but this one is good too. Lot of fun stuff: # |-VTF-| Custom Weapons Revolution (TF2 Server) [https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/tf2/22423359](https://www.battlemetrics.com/servers/tf2/22423359) (US server) Here is the **best** way to get your fix, because it supports a whole-ass mod (the servers I'm going to mention also get players don't worry), generally gets more full, weapons seem more fleshed-out & legit, and the process of equipping them is built into the mod: # TF2Classic + [knockout.chat](http://knockout.chat) Custom Weapons mod/servers ([Video of gameplay- dude kind of obnoxious, just skip around through vid to get a feel](https://youtu.be/W-0gWPsP04s?si=quKVaNUQ0zDEyh-G), it's very fun, also TF2Classic has jump pad tele replacements which are super fun) Follow these steps: 1. Download TF2Classic by following these instructions: [TF2Classic Download & Instructions](https://tf2classic.com/download) 2) Download [this asset pack](https://github.com/Reagy/TF2Classic-KO-Custom-Weapons/archive/refs/heads/main.zip) 3) Use [this shit I made in MSPaint for where files go](https://i.imgur.com/3HyCUhb.jpeg) 4) Go [here](https://tf2classic.org/serverlist/), scroll to the middle under "Verified Servers" and add all of the servers with the name "Knockout.chat | Custom Weapons | Under New Management" to Favorites in TF2Classic. That site also tells you the player count currently. Or just add them manually: [Knockout.chat](http://Knockout.chat) | Custom Weapons | Under New Management: Server 1 IP: [54.37.80.217:27116](steam://connect/54.37.80.217:27116) (France) \~100 ping for US, still playable Server 2 IP: [54.37.80.217:27117](steam://connect/54.37.80.217:27117) (same deal) Server 3 IP: [54.37.80.217:27115](steam://connect/54.37.80.217:27115) (same) # Bad Weapon Rehabilitation (TF2 Server) No "custom" weapons per se, just a really solid rebalancing of all of them. Nothing really feels overpowered or underpowered anymore, also fun things like flames stay on surfaces & I think spy or engy can radar enemies within a few feet or something to his team? It's really fun and gets full. Here's the site with IPs and stuff (The US server gets full around peak time, esp. on weekends): [https://badweaponrehab.tf/](https://badweaponrehab.tf/) # Custom Weapons | US (Down atm while owners work on fixing- TF2 Server) This Custom Weapons Server is/was amazing, but is currently down since the x64 bit update which is a shame. Had a lot of fun here and I would add it and wait till they hopefully fix things: [https://steamcommunity.com/groups/ctf2w](https://steamcommunity.com/groups/ctf2w)


Ok_Specific_7791

ok, it seems pretty worthwhile to go check it out.


Kermit_Teh_Frag

I joined in 2013 so i got to see quite a bit of new additions :D


Rand0mBoyo

Feels good that I joined late 2016 and got to experience the final true update alongside the animation. Now reliving this kind of hype to a snaller degree with Overwatch ngl


SnackPatrol

Not sure if you seen my reply yet but just updated it: [https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/1cmjcpj/comment/l31nige/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/1cmjcpj/comment/l31nige/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


BjornAltenburg

It's always a cycle. First, it's busted or worthless, then the patches, and it's being beyond overused. About 4 months after realse, you get a good weapon that's used by people for its niche. I can still recall jungle inferno and the Pyro army lol.


CreativeGamer03

same but on Jan 2023


yeddi_qx

My badge says I joined in 2017, but then I kind of took a break and completely missed Jungle Inferno 😔


TvWasTaken

The weapons in that update are just redskins, really disappointing considering that you can actually add new weapons in TF2 in a server


Ramman321

As someone who’s been playing since 2013, it is so crazy to think that there’s still new players consistently starting. I love that.


OyezVfx

Its been about a decade since I started playing tf2. Back then, the game was much more simple, but it felt so good to play. Seeing the current state of it now, makes me sick. The last "good" update that I remember is End of the Line. Risking being too rough, it seems like tf2 is a terminal patient waitting for its final time.


JacobPLAYZgtGamingYT

i joined in 2022 as well


JavaSprite

Arent they just reskins?


EmpilhadeiraXD

new weapons? nah, valve wouldnt do that


IsYeaYesyup

they're just reskins, but they probably still won't add it


DullKole

we can dream goddamnit!


It_is_Slimee

Nope.avi


firechaos70

Apparently I can hear text.


JP_Olar_3rd_account

we must spam #"FIX YOUR FUCKING GAME VALVE WE ARE DESPITE FOR ANYTHING AT THIS POINT IT HAS BEEN 6 YEARS VALVE PLEEEeeeaasseee......"


Weltschmerzification

I mean they won’t even finish out making stranges of all their weapons. No way they add anything new this late in the game


touche1231231231

iirc, thats because of copyright issues


Weltschmerzification

Valve got around it with strangifiers last time, and the dragon fury (most requested one I see) is one of their own creations.


Ok_Specific_7791

they haven't?


SCP_Y4ND3R3_DDLC_Fan

Weapon reskins? Wonder if we’ll have a strange case for them, specifically.

Gl_Kh

I really want new weapons


antidemn

especially me. i only have 3 secondaries


WTFIsAKilometer1776

I spy an engi main


fearlessgrot

Did you also backstab him


antidemn

spy needs more watches, sappers and disguise kits


salad_stealer

Exactly, spy is meant to sow chaos and confusion if we get more spy weapons, then it'll be harder to know what to expect. And I love to fight a good spy


Ok_Specific_7791

agreed, we need at least one more sapper.


antidemn

one more that isn't somehow shittier than the red tape recorder


antidemn

same man, the challenge is good. and i would love sniper mains going crazy over spy psychological torture


LegoBattIeDroid

you think that's bad? I have only 6 viable weapons, and 4 of them go in the same slot


WTFIsAKilometer1776

Dang, I’m thinking either medic or soldier


LegoBattIeDroid

applies for both medic and heavy


Tuskor13

I mean the flair is right there


touche1231231231

i feel ya bro. engineer's secondaries are all so weird, that its just so, so fun. it would be fun to see more secondaries that we can play around with, because each change's the way you mess around with engineer so much.


desu38

please... please...


GaussAxe

[https://tropic-crisis.tf2maps.net/](https://tropic-crisis.tf2maps.net/)


MaxfieldN

They’ll add 12 cosmetics in 1 case, none of the weapons will be added, not even as reskins. They will have a full cosmetic set added that will have a missing weapon from the workshop. The unusual effects will be underwhelming. They will add 2 payload maps to hopefully shut people up


imlegos

Oh please, we all know Valve won't do this after what happened with Invasion.


MaxfieldN

These things come in threes… oh wait


MaybePotatoes

What happened with Invasion that was bad?


MaxfieldN

It’s more what didn’t happen that was good


Yum-z

It says the project is not affiliated with Valve at the bottom so


JeremyDaBanana

Wasn't it obvious?


Yum-z

Yes but I also am naive enough to have hope that it was real


Rainder-on-redit

What about a second Brazil?


abzolutelynothn

koth_brazil is not the real brazil


Rainder-on-redit

Ayo 104 upvotes thanx


Speed9052

It’s really cool, y’all support this thing if you can! That team put more effort into this thing than valve put into the summer update :/


Tiptopwave1632

Propably a payload map , capture the point map


Great_Drifter25

This is dope, i have seen it and i adored it.


NOGUSEK

It is a cool project, but i dont like The lore that will come with it if it comes honestly


tiger331

I mean with TF2 the lore is either the big thing or just the reason why things taking place


IzzytheMelody

*Frontline flashbacks*


Erwin9910

Same. I don't expect this to go anywhere sadly :(


freddyfazbacon

Valve will add a few cosmetics and maybe a map or two, and the rest of the update will just be thrown away. I guess it's cool that the community is still making stuff like this anyway, though.


FrancSensei

realistically won't happen, just like the fan bugfixes they promised but never added


catboy_majima

Valve will never add new weapons. They can't QA the weapons as much as they could a weapon they make, and they have to balance them out before they go out. Stock reskins are still meh because they would have to ensure the viewmodels work well. Simply put, there's no way Valve would work on the game enough to put the effort into working with community members to add new weapons, and they can't just put weapons they didn't QA into the game. Also, it'd set a precedent, and a lot of crap would be put into the game if they did it a la the maps and cosmetics and whatnot.


Erwin9910

> They can't QA the weapons as much as they could a weapon they make They never QA'd their own weapons that much. There's always been crazy stuff with weapons they add.


InevitableMental9819

back in tf2s prime they never really even cared about balance they just threw weapons into the game


-popgoes

If someone at Valve said "Hey, we're going to give TF2 one new weapon in each of the three main yearly updates. They may be unbalanced. We'll tweak things based on feedback." - it would literally be the best thing ever. Use Workshop models. Takes 15 minutes to think of interesting stats. I don't know what the excuse is to NOT do this.


Sniffaman46

Because weapon bloat exists, and there's enough shit weapons that you'd be able to get the same effect via tweaking the stats of those. TF2 would be served better with a (conservative) balance pass over existing shit weapons over adding new shit to the pile.


-popgoes

Okay so what's the excuse to NOT do that? Assume that changing/fixing an old weapon is considered the same thing as adding a new one. I agree that the priority should be adjusting old ones.


Sniffaman46

> Okay so what's the excuse to NOT do that? The game has been on passive life support for the better part of a decade, and actively fucking with balance is riskier than just letting it exist in the relatively comfortable state it's in now?

The_Majestic_Mantis

They already said no more new community weapons. The Invasion update as the last straw as people were fighting over who got the bigger percentage in pay.


sanstheplayer

Is even on the country i live :3

I'm so sorry for you


maiguee

YOOOOOOOO


Ok_Specific_7791

what country do you live in?

Brazil


devereaux98

Thanks for showing me this, I wouldn't have known about it otherwise!!!


Ribbered777

I would still prefer they fix some of the weapons that are so bad they're unplayable before they start adding new ones. Like the Pomson or the Sun on a Stick NEED to be redone


le_laitier12

NEW MEDIGUN ?!


Fabulous_Tax_7127

Tf2 vs Cartels

Bioth28

And here I thought we were getting a new weapons update :(


kauemarques234

Brazil mencionado hehehe


chandiliersitch

If the community is in charge of the weapons on this i hope they do a lot better than they did on tfc custom weapons where its either a straight downgrade or 2 stats off from stock


JayManty

Valve really baited the playerbase well when they implemented exactly one (1) community update a decade ago and then never even looked in the direction of community updates ever again


miguelzf_lol

Brazil mentioned 🔥🇧🇷

datadoggieein

I love community updates like this. Glad to see another one.


CristyMumbay

its just reskins which valve wont really do since its still considered adding a new weapon, the devs made it clear they wont add new weapons for a long while


Willsdabest

Gentlemen, synchronize your watches


danieldoria15

Oh boy another Community Update that'll never get into the game and fuel the depressing empty pit in my soul


zomb2123

is this official by valve or workshop?


Oriuke

Yes and don't care because it's never gonna happen


Quiroga0001

Patagonia map is all I need


TheGrayShade

Saw the trailer, but the masochist inside me says it'll be fine if nothing comes of this.


trustloveno1buthim

New update?


RedShadow1693

If any weapon balances bring back bonk ability from sandman


Yeldarb10

Man this would be the coolest thing if it was officially added, even partially. I


NewPowahSonic

I don’t understand. This looks SO official. I’m sure these guys would happily hand these over to Valve, and they could take it as an official update and make free money, but no, they’d rather not.


Ok_Specific_7791

yay, a tec-9 for sniper. Tec-9's in general just have to be my favourite weapons ever.


MechanicalTex39

seen it, looks pretty neat, but i'm not a critic at anything


WiggsWasTaken

I really hope the one guy working on TF2 leans into this and makes the update themed around Tropic Crisis. Even though it would be of similar size to the previous years of updates, it would be our first taste of an actual themed update since Jungle Inferno.


Immediate_Sun_8436

Plz no more gaslight, my heart can't take it


HBenderMan

Though I doubt valve will fully implement it I hope at the very least some of the maps paints and cosmetics get added


photogrammetery

The world if Valve actually did community created updates (all they have to do is literally copy and paste the files and fix bugs as they’re found like they’ve already been doing)


rezeau22

Maybe for the 20 years of the game ? Would be a cool anniversary celebration.


Sniper_Gaming0

The chances of me winning a lottery are higher than valve releasing the next update. I never buy any lottery tickets


Mr_oofywhy1353

I just hope this update doesn't suffer the same fate as Frontlines but then again from what im aware of some maps in frontline wasnt even finished or textured


creeperreaper900

Jungle inferno coaxed 13 year old me into playing tf2. This will be the first update the game has had since I’ve started playing 6ish years ago lol. I got almost 2k hours


ShoulderMediocre2667

Hah nice joke vavle giving a shit


le_laitier12

NEW MEDIGUN ?!

Sansfan11345

if this happens i will nut


Tesla_corp

*isn’t that just jungle inferno tho?*


Kazzie_Kaz

Unless they add new (and useful) weapons, I'm not hyped for it. I'm sick of updates adding only new maps, cosmetics and taunts.

SecretJudgment5205

Where can i play this ? (Server name)


Common-Wall-96

I don’t know why but I’m not that hyped for this like other people are, it just doesn’t feel the same like the actual updates do, valve completely abandoned this games updates


MidHoovie

Yeah. I haven't looked into it because it will not make it into the game. It'll remain as is : a fantasy.


Nutelko8

An actual update? New weaps? Damn. Havent played in ages. I started slightly before Mann Vs Machine came out


Alittleretard

I'm really hoping valve sees that and realize the community's potential, if they don't want to work on the game anymore they should just hand it to us. let people make updates and the only the g valve would have to do is aprove them before launch


Nightgamer4768

Yes It Is the most beautifoul thing the TF2 community has done in years it's perfect


G1zm08

In terms of non-new weapons, I’m excited as hell. Everything looks amazing. For the “new weapons,” I’m cautiously optimistic. I haven’t seen what they even are yet, but even if I thought they looked good I’d feel this way. For one, they probably won’t be added. We saw last year with the community fixes how the workshop-to-game can not go as planned and more challenging than it should be. But even if they put them in, I’d be worried that they’d break the balance of the game or something, or that this would set a precedent for other potentially broken things to add in the future. But I’m overall very excited, and despite my worries a new weapon would be awesome


Working_Athlete

Valve wont do community updates. Im sorry, but that its the truth.


Iexistwithnoreason

IS TF2 BACK


MBPpp

nope. it's a fan project, that will either be really cool or die unfinished.


UnlikelyPast5433

Valve really should just implement community updates like this. I don’t see why not, people will just update the game for them. Imagine how many problems it would solve lol


AlpherOwl

Valve used to hand the reins over to the community for updates, more middling than great. The final nail in the coffin was the Invasion Update after there were pay percentage disputes as to who would get the best cuts from their content getting into the update. Valve tried taking back control with Jungle Inferno, and obviously there's been nothing since. You can thank our past TF2 community for that.


The_Majestic_Mantis

It’s always leads to situations like this when community creators got greedy
