Invasion Update

Post by Zork Nemesis » Thu Sep 10, 2015 8:50 pm

I'm gonna take this out of the shoutbox before I start shouting with myself.

Today's patch (9/10) added a number of UFOs to skyboxes across pretty much every official map (one per). Posters have also been added to spawn rooms warning of UFO sightings and these appear to have replaced those conspiracy theory bulletin boards we've been seeing for a while now.

This Reddit post breaks down everything in the patch, but draws attention to the new UFOs: https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/3 ... for_91015/

There's also this supposedly leaked trailer for Invasion from a couple months ago, which uses the same UFO model: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wDRQ4Dj72M

Valve is no stranger to teasing updates like this. We had the MvM tanks in the backgrounds, Grodbort rockets crashed into buildings in the distance, Archemedies living in the Scout, the bread from the teleporters, and more. What do you think this one's going to bring? My guess is that it has to do with this year's Halloween event.

This is hard to be cool and suave while being informative at the same time. Goddamn my coolness.
In my experience, common sense isn't too common.

Awesome! I always love the TF2 Halloween updates but wasn't super thrilled with the past few.

Hopefully this one will be great.

The first couple were great. The recent few were thinly veiled cash grabs that weren't fun anyway.

Just as long as they don't put it behind a pay wall the way they have for the last two events.

Oh you know they will. People will shell out thousands for TF2 cosmetics and they know it.
