    Well it was fun while it lasted. In remembrance of this fun little exploit I put together a quick video with me and some people dicking around with the Amputator exploit (of course on non-Lethal Zone servers. :p)

    Also Youtube still sucks for darkening my videos for no reason.

    yeah that was my idea when watching the vid too. I would have gone for the 5x health stack, then take out the new heavy bear claws, together with the new steak you would have gotten a great speed boost, and the 35% extra damage + mini crits of the sandvich would have been like... OMGWTHBBQ you can 1 hit 150 damage I thought.

    Super Mario Land 3 - Wario Land to be precise.

    It stacked? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF- well with only one stack it was least sort of a challenge.

    You want your Engi mask or not? :p
    But yeah on the other hand it has a true core, but it's not like I troll daily around on other servers. It was just one of these one in a million situations, where someone told me this fun bug I got to try out.

    Eh, just for the people who don't use their grey matter.
    The smart ones started attacking me with melee weapons, that's why I usually kept my distance. ^^
    Even worse are Pyros with their axtinguisher. :/

    If you think of it in a certain way it's Valve whose ruining other peoples games :3 You could consider this video a message to valve stating they need to test their updates before applying them

    Anyway you're so right ! They should use TF2 Beta for this kind of stuff too >.< .

    indeed because the amp. exploit kinda made me feel the beta was just a plaything and nothing to test new weapons but only updates/nerfs (we do however owe the natasha nerf to the beta so it's not completely useless)

    Well it would ruin the whole surprise of the christmas update if you could already use all the new weapons before the official release. After all, the beta is open to everyone.
    And just look how long it took for that Amputator exploit to spread. The Xmas update was on the 17th of December. I heard about that exploit around new year, so that are two weeks and I estimate it took someone a week to figure out that exploit. Now keep in mind that the beta is played by only a fraction of the TF2 players, so I'd it would've taken maybe 3-4 weeks until someone noticed that bug and I doubt they would betatest for so long.

    Yeah, it's not like we have a beta or anything for testing stuff like that. *looks at Valve*

    Cauchemar > I didn't think about the 'suprise' thing. I guess that's a good reason, but they really should test their new weapons more...

    Eh, it's one of these factor x things you'd never think about doing when betatesting.
    Kinda like the taunt-exploit with the Dead Ringer/C'n'D or the several infinite Sentry exploits as Engi.

    I'm sure Valve also never intended to Forcejump with the FaN.
