What's different this Summer compared to the Community Updates is that VSH-VScript has been [almost] finished when Valve got to decide if they want to include it. There was a guarantee on what they're getting, while a Community Update of the old style could end up being anything. VSH was made and then picked. Community Updates were picked and then made.

VSH as a Mercs vs Boss characters game mode would be great. making normal boss characters and also making some of the Halloween bosses playable would be intersting. Saxton Hale as one of the normal boss characters would be interesting. What about other normal characters? a Lumberjack for Lumberyard, Offblast with some Rocket Silo Patroller, Park Ranger for Watchtower, Ravine with a Security Guard and more would be cool to have for normal Arena mode bosses and for VSH variants.

I honestly really like the VSH Gamemode! (despite the fact that I die a lot) The Gamemode itself has the goofiness of the CTF Maps, with the random people messing around with goofy gimicks like "Engineer who laughs at Sentry" as an example, while also having the Objective being simple enough for everyone to understand "Shoot the Big Guy and LIVE." I can honestly see the Deathrun gamemode becoming official through either Scream Fortress, where Merasmus forces the Mercs to go through all these spooky traps and what not. If not through Scream Fortress, it can either through be the Mercs on the run from the Robots, or to possibly have them running from the TFC Mercs. The VSH Gamemode has Grey Mann talking and with saying that he's "The new CEO of Mann. Co" which is something that happened in the Comics, so this can be a possibility

Saxton Hale/The Administrator : Grey Mann Blutarch : Redmond Soldier : Merasmus And that's about it for characters outside the TF2 cast has for villains. Maybe Scout, Spy, Heavy, Medic, Demoman, Engineer, Sniper and Pyro could have some antagonists? And I don't mean the former blue mercenaries either, they really and honestly didn't last long enough to be considered rivals, and that fake Santa Claus "died" too soon and Steve Jobs was a one-off.

With VSH staying permanently from the looks of it, I hope this is a mode that will get new maps over time, because I haven't had this much fun playing TF2 in a lonnngggg time. And hopefully, it might just be enough for the gamemode to get it's own slot on the menu tab. With 4 maps already there, and the uniqueness of the mode, it's weird seeing it lumped into misc with other standalone gamemodes that are just twists on previous modes.

@anonymousaccordionist3326

I just thought I'd point out some very important points that you, and other viewers, maybe did not know. This new version of VSH that was added to the game was made by Lizard of Oz (I don't know if he did it alone), not Valve. He made some KZitem updates after Vscript became a thing for TF2, so anyone who is curious about it should look for those. The reason the original voice actors did not provide their talents is because Valve had nothing to do with the creation of the mode or maps. It was entirely community made, and the voicelines are built into the vscript of the maps. Obviously, had Valve been the creators of the mode, they would have brought in the gang to do their own custom voice work, if they decided to add voice lines at all.
@geraldysjunk
Жыл бұрын
Let me preface this by saying, yes, I know only 2 part time contractors are working on TF2. I personally think the reason Valve added VSH was because they have nearly completely lost all sense of quality control of TF2 (not saying VSH is of poor quality) and they simply don't care. Like in the player model on the HUD, it's Heavy, I doubt it would have been that hard for Valve to make it be Saxton. They added it to temporarily satiate our hunger for more content and because it was already wrapped up in a sweet little package ready to go. We did have that little hiccup with casual not knowing how to add it but that doesn't really bother me because this is brand new. The voice actors (Robin Atkin Downes, Gary Schwartz, Dennis Batemen and John Lowre) have made it very clear that they really want to get back in the studio and work for the game. Valve probably didn't even think to contact them about this, and they probably won't ever. Pure speculation, but I can almost guarantee that if the new voices were horrible, Valve would have still added it to the game. If we do get a community update with new weapons it won't be out of a newfound trust that valve has, it'll be out of pure laziness and a total drop in standards. Valve does not care anymore.

I hate that valve took the 2 community updates as a show that a community run update can never work ever again and none of it is Valves fault lol. They really expected to just throw money at random strangers and hope they don’t fight about it. They’re essentially your employees, you’re hiring them. You need to step in and lay down the ground rules if they’re starting pissy fights over the work. They just expected to tell a bunch of strangers “hey, we’re giving money out indiscriminately to you, put out a AAA title update and don’t cause any problems”. Community updates were a great idea, and a combination of idiot and selfish selection of community members and Valves laziness and apathetic nature just screwed it all up.
