Heavy Robs a Bank

October 14, 2015June 13, 2017 DapperApples 0 Comments guide, heavy, non-tf2, other game, payday, payday 2

So over the past summer, they released a big handful of DLC packs for Payday 2, including a pack with a minigun and a character that happens to be Russian. Me being me, I had to put them together and be Heavy Weapons Heister. And you can, too. As the Heavy, you become a powerful tank that can slow the advance of the police forces, and possibly bring other utility on the side. The only DLC you really need is the Overkill Pack, which gives you access to the minigun. The Gage Courier and Shotgun packs can help customize your… [Continue Reading]

Why I think you should give Dirty Bomb a chance

October 12, 2015 Poptart 0 Comments Classes, dirty bomb, fast, guns, non-tf2, speed

Dirty bomb is one of my favorite games, I love the diverse class options, different counter play mechanics, fast paced fire fights, and massive emphasis on team coordination that the game provides. However the game does not come without its flaws, those being a less than stellar payment model, and a small map selection. Of course Dirty Bomb is still in beta and new characters are being added regularly, if you haven’t played it for a while come back and see whats new. It’s free on steam and the rotation changes every 2 weeks. Anyway my reasons for writing this… [Continue Reading]

The LCS is here but…

October 10, 2015 Garen 0 Comments competitive, DEMACIA, league of legends, lol, non-tf2, tournament

The LCS, the World Championship, Worlds, whatever you want to call it, the biggest League of Legends tournament, featuring the best teams across the planet, is here. Well, actually, it’s here, on the League of Legends E-Sports website, but I am sure you blog-goers would understand. Unfortunately, due to my duties in Demacia and on the Fields of Justice, I was actually late to make this announcement. There is a problem though. I wonder how much of the community actually cares? Of course, the Asian communities almost certainly care. E-sports is a steadily growing phenomenon, and some places like South… [Continue Reading]

On Left 4 Dead and how it was all ported over

October 3, 2015 Medic 0 Comments criticism, l4d, left 4 dead, non-tf2, sequel, zombie

There’s something about the original Left 4 Dead game, how it still feels better than Left 4 Dead 2. But this isn’t like the feeling aabicus has with Payday 1 and 2, or Team Fortress Classic and Team Fortress 2, this is something different. The games I just mentioned, the sequels are, well, completely different. Payday 2 gets rid of old Hoxton and replaces him temporarily until you unlock the old version by saving him and is basically a whole new game, focusing more on the constant expansions than one little thing. The differences between Team Fortress Classic and Team… [Continue Reading]

Playing with the Creation Kit

September 28, 2015 Medic 0 Comments crash, fun, game, mod, non-tf2, Skyrim

Lately, I’ve been playing a lot of Skyrim. While Medic is still at the Throat of the World contemplating his life and what he should do next (Warning, spoilers – the beginning is here), I’ve been messing around with my second most OP character – Lokmahro, the literal Dragonborn. I say second most overpowered, simply because Medic was really powerful. I didn’t tell you this when I wrote Medic in Skyrim, but I had to redo the Alduin battle because my Syringe Gun killed him in 5 seconds. I wouldn’t mind, I hadn’t even leveled up Archery that much and… [Continue Reading]

Stupidly Simple Fixes: League of Legends edition

September 18, 2015 Medic 0 Comments agony, balance, grief, matchmaking, non-tf2, trolling

Wow, I’ve done a few of these stupidly simple articles, but all of them have been about Team Fortress so far. And most of them were pretty simple ideas, although later on I was kinda scraping the bottom of the barrel. But League of Legends on the other hand is a game completely swamped with problems, many of which aren’t actually really that game-based. It’s the outside bits and pieces that piss people off and make them angry. So I’m going to pass this over to Vel’Koz to explain these thoughts, since Garen’s still busy rocking the high win rate.… [Continue Reading]

New CS:GO update – Reanimated

September 17, 2015 Davjo_ 0 Comments balance, CSGO, nerf, non-tf2, update

Oh look an update that does not include skins, music kits or the likes of that! An update that fixes some bugs and adding new features! For those that don’t know yet for some reason, there has been an update to CS:GO today, or yesterday, timezones are werid. Anywho, it brings us a whole animation overhaul, updated hitboxes and thus even fixing most hitbox glitches like screwed up hitboxes on ladders, when jumping and during the plant animation. We also magically summon a PDA with cables whenever we defuse now. You also now draw your weapon in the world model… [Continue Reading]

6 Things I Miss From Payday: The Heist

September 16, 2015 aabicus 0 Comments criticism, mods, non-tf2, payday

This article is basically a sequel to Payday 2 and Things Lost in Translation, but it’s going to be a bit more nitpicky. Like, little things that aren’t big deals like the ones from the previous article, but they help complete the picture. I know I’m harping on Payday 2 a lot, but hell I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sequel that made so many tiny baffling changes that missed the mark. 1. The HUD Payday: The Heist has a great HUD that tells you everything you want to know without cluttering up your screen. Your health is instantly recognizable… [Continue Reading]

Fire and Smoke go through the dust, too!

August 31, 2015 Davjo_ 0 Comments advice, competitive, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, CSGO, non-tf2

Hey there, fellow people that read The Daily SPUF! As you can probably tell from the name of the article, this one is CS:GO related instead of TF2 related, and today we will be learning some good smokes for the most recognizable map in the Counter-Strike series, Dust2! How I got to like Dust2 is kind of a coincidence, since it was one of my most hated maps (probably due to me liking more CT-sided maps like Nuke instead of balanced ones), but trying out “new” maps I thought that Dust2 is quite OK, and now it’s one of my… [Continue Reading]

Alduin and Amputators – Medic in Skyrim part 8

August 23, 2015 Medic 0 Comments alduin, dragon, finale, medic, non-tf2, roar, Skyrim, weapon

This is it, ladies and gentlemen! This is the big one! After fighting my way through Skuldafn, I’m finally here in the Nord afterlife. Which makes no sense because I’m an Imperial (apparently) and I shouldn’t be here. Before we continue, if you haven’t, you should read parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 So it’s pretty here. Very pretty. I mean, just look at the sky. Shame about all the mist. It’s misty and pretty. I bump into someone in the fog. A Stormcloak. Going on about how a giant dragon is going around eating people. Unfortunately,… [Continue Reading]
