Brand new video game articles, every day!
So, the night before this article was written, (since we don’t publish articles immediately) everyone jumped onto the SPUF server and had a whale of a time. We had all sorts of fun and it was nice. It turns out, all we have to do is throw a couple of people in there and it’s lovely. I’m going to tell you why we should visit the SPUF server more often.
This question was brought to you by Medics’s siblings. I finally did this for you, now shut up. ————————– Aabicus: Snipers can be teeth-gnashingly annoying, but in all honesty they don’t bug me as much as they could. I’ve since learned to be very careful before crossing into territory where a sniper could see me, and unlike most classes, I’ve got a way to turn myself invincible against all damage, for when I finally poke my head out. That’s not to say that sniper’s niche of “deals lethal damage from the other side of the map” isn’t incredibly difficult to… [Continue Reading]
Hello everyone! In today’s article, I’m going to show you how to make a shotgun out of cardboard. Why cardboard? Oh, there’s loads of reasons.

Rockets and Stickies. The meat and veg of the two explosive classes. While we all think that, because they blow up and they hurt, they’re similar, but really, it’s like apples and oranges. Time to ponder what ifs!
Sooo, there was an update yesterday! A huge, Quickplay-mending update! Oh and we got more hats. Let’s have a look!
The beginning of the second month of the year is here, which is good because little happened in the last day of January. No updates at all. But February was rather interesting from a balance point of view. Also, Gullywash finally got put into the right matchmaking category. What else happened?
Everyone knows how much health everyone has. Four have 125 health. One has 150 health. Two have 175 health. One has 200 health. One has 300 health. Yawn, boring. But what if everyone had double their current health?
The world of Team Fortress 2 is a huge place. There’s rocks, weapons and hats everywhere. No matter where you look, you find little tidbits that are vaguely interesting, and they’re not always hats or something, just parts of the landscape that we’ve just not noticed. Let’s have a look at a couple of maps…
“WHAT? IS CP_FREIGHT BEING REMOVED?” No. Calm down. I’m talking about the fifth or sixth version of itsurblog that finally bit the dust a while back. You know, that thread where we talked about anything BUT Team Fortress 2. Oh and a bit of Team Fortress 2.
A fairly exciting week, this week, on 25th January, saw the addition of everyone’s completely forgotten favourite CTF map, CTF_Well, as well as some particle optimizations and a few bug fixes, particularly on Gravelpit. It took a very long time though for some very simple things, such as Medics getting a percentage on their Ubercharge meters. This wasn’t added until January 28th in 2009! Also added were the update progress and the level of an Engineer’s buildings in their HUD.
