  • KritzKast #277: The Hunt for Bread October

    Bread is clearly important, so in typical Valve fashion, they found a unique delivery method by having it randomly fall out of teleporters. This week’s update brings new life to the Eureka Effect. Leaked files, found by FacePunch user ‘testinglol’, reveal some interesting potential weapons, mechanics and game modes.

    Bored of exploding into meat chunks? CheezKurds and Greatjob_ have made a mod that replaces silly gibs with loaves of bread. Similarly, a Market Gardener mod by Murray0722 let’s you finally slam dunk your opponents. Tumblr VS Reddit (NA East) Round 2 happened, you may watch it here. As the communities battle it out, ETF2L announce the 3rd Highlander Nations Cup.

    For those with a Wii you can finally use your favourite TF2 class as a Mii. World Bread Day begets/baguettes some intriguing speculation. Finally we invite you to listen to an interview with the mapper Heyo watch this week’s video of the week: Meet the Bread Heavy.

  • KritzKast #276: Sending American’s to the Moon!

    Our first hint at new weapons from valves mouth in over a year. That’s what the blog post released this week showed us. We also got exposed to a few ideas valve thought weren’t worth releasing….we can see why. the BASE jumper on the other hand.

    Its all about getting Americans over to England too. Chronos is heading over in August, which of course means a meet up of all of us and YOU, if your in london on the 8th of august (exact location tbc). The fundraiser for getting 2 US teams over for I52 starts now. We need to raise $1200 to get 2 teams to try and take on the EU powerhouses. Finally the score will be settled in an arena built for a contest of such magnitude.

    Also getting some talk time is the TF2 mod that brings quake to life again (or player of the week), A calculation of how many sticky bombs it would take to get to the moon, Amazing work from the lego community who have made an amazing machina, News that the medic could have been in poker night 2 and a couple of fantastic videos of the week. One take Hotline Miami and puts a TF2 spin on it, the other takes frozen and….well….puts a Tf2 spin on it.

    What do you do when you can’t pick a video of the week. You get 3 videos of the week. Thats right, this week we have 3 videos that are required viewing. The first is a TF2 take on lion kings “Be Prepared” made by KungfuBellyDancer. The second is a mock up of a super smash bros game….but with valve characters made by CrazyHalo. Then there is Rappy ‘n’ Demo. Impressive, if for nothing more than its 26 minute run time, but if your easily confused this may not be for you.

    June 27th. Mark that date as the start of the next 72hour mapping contest. The theme is yet to be announced, But we’ve been informed its worth waiting for. Looking forward to EOTL? You may be impressed by the progress made and how it differs from the original trailer we once saw. Also out this week is the continuation of the moments of glory montages. watch the best of the best from clip #200-#300

    Also, props to Pip for adding Lo-Fi’s to the KK subreddit

    TF2 modder, InstantMuffin, joins us to talk about his and Stice’s creation Prophunt TNG. The update drought has ended with a fairly liberal smattering of fixes and improvements. 3A releases images of their new Robot Pyro model.

    This week we disprove that old adage, “two items added to the UGC Higlander whitelist does not a podcast make.”

    Also worthy of note is that they defiantly haven’t been testing the End of the Line map.

    Exclusive to KritzKast, FRaGiMuS_MaX reveals part 1 of his 6 year effort to bring his Team Fortress Universe to life.

    Sin has his own Sunday production now, though there’s some descorde between presenters as to whether this constitutes content or just more of the same from him. And lastly Babies. Need I say more? No.

    It seems fitting that in a week were only the things were changed in the updates we have only three hosts to share them with you. Tempest, Chronos and Agro; far from TF2 n00bs themselves share this distinctly n00bish flavoured show. Starting with the next of the Valve “bi-monthly” comics. This of course came out a month from the last one, just in time for free comic book day. Now that everyone is up to speed on the comic books it’s time to bring your friends up to speed on the game itself thanks to DYKGaming. When your friends know everything, but are woefully lacking in experience enter them in the Highlander Open. You final mission is to sit everyone down, even you, in front of Muselk’s Mythbusters videos to complete your understanding of TF2.
