Just want to point out to everyone that this mailing list is NOT for game
play changes. It is for server owner discussion

 Sorry to taking the mailing list further offtopic, but the heavy nerf
 didn't affect the gameplay flow as much as the demoman sticky launcher one.
 The axtingusher nerf is arguable done to make it more intresting sidegrade
 than the upgrade it used to be (somewhat similar to the equalizer nerf they
 did awhile back where they split it into two weapons).

 They are still intending to rebalance the sticky launcher, just not in
 a way that probably affects the gameplay flow as much. There is plenty of
 community discussion on alternate ways of doing this already anyway.

Re: [hlds] Serious new(?) TF2 bug involving infinite ubercharges of any type

[evan otten]

Morning gents. Just wanted to share these videos of the glitch that I
captured last night.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqSbsmtRttg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHyVWWD97og

As you can see, it could be serious.
Currently, server owners if you have a afk manager and have it set strictly
it will kick the medic doing the uber.
Another way is if another medic starts healing the ubererd player it will
drop the uber.

Re: [hlds] Serious new(?) TF2 bug involving infinite ubercharges of any type

So, I'm not going to go into details on how this works. Me and a friend
were the ones who found this exploit and yes it needs to be patched. It's
hard to do. so currently I don't think anyone else can do it.


But here's a another video.
