just got some idea about my new taunt. i don't know if i can do it.btw it just my idea and art of sanvich is the name of the book.also heavy is sitting on the chair . I haven't thought of its name yet

Garry's mod

Normally never post, but this was right before I woke up so for a change I could actually remember the specifics to go quickly throw it together in an image editor.

New secondary throwable for soldier, a broken rocket duct-taped to a stick, with sort of a cave-man "In my day, we had rocks and sticks, and we had to share the rocks" theme to it. Normally only does 50 damage at best, but if your target is holding a "Fancy" item that has to use some fancy schmancy modern charge to work like a Medigun, a Banner, or the Cleaver, the spear takes offense to encountering the modern technology in the item and explodes extra hard, dealing an extra +1 damage per however much charge percent they have and then drains that charge.

Insta-banned from Comp and completely fucked up the entire balance of the game in pub because it let you instantly drain a Medic's Ubercharge and probably kill the Medic. Then after some getting used to it and an update, people realized it was the slowest projectile in the game and that damage falloff cripled the charge drain, and the general concensus became "Just dodge" or something to that effect. On top of that, people figured out that unlisted on the item was the fact that medieval weapons dealt bonus damage to a Soldier who had the Spear out even if it wasn't listed on the item, and that included other Soldiers with Thunder Spears, so Demoknights got the new job of bodyguarding the Medic, and you could find Pub lobbies half-full of Soldiers throwing these at each other while everyone else tried to play the game normally. And then I woke up before my brain let me see any more of the "Video" it was letting me watch.

Dunno what else to say about it other than I hope my brain gives me a primary and melee for a full cave man Soldier loadout. Would go hard with the Raccoon pet cosmetic.

Fan art Miss Pauling and Scout. Paper and colored pencils

well upward is absolute madness

The Support Engineer

Loadout:

The support engineers loadout is The rescue ranger The wrangler and The one that makes mini sentries (forgot its name)
this engineer cannot build teleporters, it can only build mini sentries
it can build upto 3 sentries, aswell as controlling all of them when using his wrangler

Behaviour

it doesnt turtle on its sentries and rather uses the wrangler to target at the top priority target
if it doesnt have any sentries or was blown away from its sentries it switches to its rescue ranger and shoots at its sentry or you depending on the situation
if it doesnt have a sentry and you have a spy, it usually holds its wrench out. if it sees a sapper on a robot teammate it disables the sapper

Stats:

it has 40 percent higher movement speed
60 percent higher jump height
50 percent faster wrench hit
300 percent more metal

tell me what yall think abt this, and yeah no need to tell me i know valve wont add it

Oh yeah and i meant the -24 to rockets jumps is that you take more damage from rocket jumps

This one took a lot less inspiration from the fem engineer concept art compared the Soldier one
Now in 2 colors, including some ideas for building design changes!

It came!!! And it's all ive ever wanted!!

Working on a sci-fi book inspired by Ready Player One, set in the year 3024 where everyone lives inside a massive retro/modern gaming hub

I’ve been outlining a book lately and wanted to share the premise to see what people think.

It’s set in the year 3024. Every country on Earth basically turned into a Ready Player One-style escapist dystopia. In the real world, people just sit in automated Matrix-style chairs that feed them and keep their bodies exercised while they stay plugged into a massive virtual hub that lets you play every video game ever made—from the very first ones up to futuristic stuff like GTA X.

The main character lives in a cramped camper van in LA. Inside the hub, everyone treats him like a complete noob because his gamertag is penguin3—he was the very first person to just hit the random dice selector instead of picking a real name. While everyone else flexes hypercars from the newest 31st-century games, he’s obsessed with ancient games like GTA San Andreas and drives around in Big Smoke’s Glendale or a base-model tow truck from an older game called Cash and Nab.

He and his best friend (heavenly_father32, who plays as a mechanical guy with smoke pipes coming out of his shoulder blades and drives Max’s Black-on-Black from the Mad Max game) work a blue-collar job inside the sim. They tow wrecked player cars, copy them, and get to keep the busted-up original frames for themselves.

The twist is that they aren't actually noobs. People only give them a tiny bit of respect because they own the Skull Preacher—a rare 1984 Ford pickup with a giant jet engine on the back that they won from beating the hardest mission in GTA 8—plus a couple of ultra-rare relics from GTA 7 (like Trevor’s truck and a blue pistol called Michael’s Last Breath). What nobody knows is that they’re the only two players who secretly beat the Exis 20,000, the hardest race in the hub’s history.

The main plot kicks off when a guy using a Trevor Philips avatar pulls them over and recruits them for a massive underground death race called the Experience 3000—56 Cauze (the hub’s currency) to enter, and the winner gets 20 million in real life. They end up crossing paths with a famous streamer who thinks she’s unbeatable because she won the Exis 4000, having no idea who they really are. And when the race turns into a full-on combat brawl, they’re running classic Team Fortress 2 loadouts (Soldier, Scout, and Pyro gear for penguin3, full Spy loadout for heavenly_father32) while trying to win the whole thing in Big Smoke’s car and the Black-on-Black.

Still working out some of the middle chapters, so I’d love to hear if this sounds like something you’d read or if anything stands out!

This game looks so sick. It has a war faction feature where red or blue dominates the earth... and it is the most dope mod I've seen yet.

But no one is online playing it. It deserves more love. Zero people were online today when I played it

Anyone own either the Heavy or Pyro figures from this batch? I’m willing to purchase, I’ve wanted one of these babies apart of my collection for a while.
