I really want that trumpet flamethrower to be in the game right now.

[Vipershark]

won't be surprised when it is

[Marth]

They said that the short contained spoilers so they would announce the new update later. So we are probably getting the trumpet rainbow thrower and maybe some kind of happy looking map?

[DioShiba]

the very first lyrics in the song said "do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart"
which there is no doubt in my mind that valve did on purpose just to mess with people, ahahah

Why does his gender still matter to most people.

It's clearly obvious that the pyro is really a mutated kangaroo with the eyes of a merry walrus who knows how to play magical trumpets.

We just have to treat this like Arnolds last name, or what's under Edd's hat and accept the fact we will never really know what the pyro is.

[DioShiba]

Well we were right about a few things. Lets go to pyro land!

going to be wearing the goggles for quite some time now lol.

[Marth]

Yeah game won't open for shit. I'll try again in a few hours.

[DioShiba]

ether everyone is getting it asap or they're updating it now.

EDIT1:It's up.

time for pyro land.

[Rosencrantz]

i love how they still didnt define the pyro's gender.
although, i wonder if it intentionally sees things this way to suppress what it is really doing or it is all subconscious.

Actually, Scout calls the Pyro a "him" in the MtP video. Valve just loves to troll.

SO ANYWAY, Meet the Pyro was the best Meet the Team,
Source Filmmaker being released makes me incredibly happy,
Doomsday mode is fun as hell,
the various weapon fixes are fantastic (to name a few: Crossbow now has a 40% faster reload speed, Crit-a-Cola now gives the Scout a speed boost, and the Equalizer was split up to feature one pickaxe that has the speed boost and another one that has the damage boost),
and Pyro Land is the best fucking thing.

actually...



these are the official captions on the video.

VAAAAAAAAALVE!!

Is it bad that I've never seen Pyro as a woman? The anonymous fellow just seems too masculine to me.

[puggsoy]

Try standing still after losing a round (during Humiliation) as Pyro.



That stance brings the masculinity down a bit.

I wasn't expecting Valve to tell us the Pyro's gender in MTP. Personally I'm not too concerned about it, I mean it's like Professor Layton's hat (until the 3rd game, at least). It also allows for some great comics.

[Sonikku]

i got 2 genuine robot chicken hats because i registered twice for the newsletter on 2 different emails so i got 2 codes and registered them both lol

[soulcaliburfan]

Almost have all of the new weapons, just need 1 more flare gun to craft the new flare gun...

[Marth]

I had a streak of finding shit tonight that's a new thing for me. I got a bunch of soldier weapons I don't want, I guess it's time to try crafting. I also can't get my code for the hat until 7/5/12 apparently.
Also the dead ringer is amazing, I was on a roll tonight with it.

[Sonikku]

a strange deadringer is annoying because when it levels up it announces it to the whole server so whoever thought they just killed you is like wait what the fuck and goes and actually kills you

also
i have the best pyro except when i try to actually play in which case

this happens fucking always
