Instead of bouncing, the Buzzer's sawblades will now crawl along surfaces and damage anything in their path. The Buzzer does not have a lot of ammo, but once your sawblade slows to a stop you can pick them up again for reuse, almost similar to the Tomahawk. Sawblades can also do headshot damage, but only while airborne.
The Buzzer also features an alt-fire which allows you to spin up the sawblade before firing. Not only can you use this as a makeshift melee weapon, but firing the sawblade while its spun up will also strengthen it's launching power.
The second firing mode retains it's shotgun-blast theme, it has fewer projectiles that do more damage and fire in a uniform spread pattern. 
The final firing mode launches a large, explosive projectile with a heavier drop speed. It's considered an explosive projectile, including all the consequences of being such. 
The Blaster now has an ammo pool in the form of rechargeable energy. The spread and explosive firing modes will use up ammo, however the Blaster will recharge ammo when not in use. The first firing mode does not use ammo, but will cease recharging while being fired. Recharging will continue while either holstered or dropped on the ground, you can also recover energy through ammo boxes and other ammo restoration means.
The next two gas types are Heal and Nitrogen. Similar to the Heal Grenade, the Gas Launcher will expel healing clouds which heal anyone in it's vicinity. The Nitrogen grenades will predictably freeze foes who pass through it. The last grenade type is "BATON", which emits no gas and is just the projectile by itself. Each grenade type (except heal) will do a little damage on impact, however the Baton grenade will do extra and can also deal headshot damage.
Using the 2 grenades in your magazine, a great way to slap someone's shit is to freeze them with Nitrogen, then headshotting them with a Baton round to perform quadruple damage. But it would be a good idea to carry along a finisher weapon.
The Taser hasn't actually changed all that much except for some visual enhancements and that it's infinite ammo has been replaced by just having a lot of ammo instead.
Instead, it has powerful double 'anti-air' style cannons which fires less but deals a whole lot of damage. It has kept it's rocket and muleslapper weaponry, which are now separately fired by using alt-fire so you can control the chaos you cause a little better for yourself.
It has retained most of the same layout, which I cleaned up the symmetry for. It also features some lava pits that have moving platforms, so watch your step.
I made some small structural changes and I removed the blizzard foreground non-sense so no more annoying visibility problems. And yes, poor sequels to horror movies exist in the Boring Man universe.
I also added some pressure plates for each side, which will open trap doors underneath each base. Be careful to not fall off the sides, lest you fall into the boiling geothermal water pools.
The obnoxious sandstorm has also been removed, with its replacement being a desert night look. I've also added more visual detail, such as the little fruit market in the middle of the map
There are 60 achievements as of now, and we'll see about adding more. Stat recording starts as of this update, as there were several bugs that would skew your stats plus now that most weapons are in your stats won't end up so lopsided.
Picking up lore articles and unlocking achievements will grant you small amounts of XP, however the XP you get is not influenced by triple XP events. This is so you don't really have to worry about 'saving' your achievements or lore like a weirdo in order to maximize miniscule XP gains.
Similar to the Bar, the Beacon will only open during the break period. By supplying it money, specific weapons and specific vices, you can 'activate' the Beacon in order to skip to the final wave at any point in the match. Of course it can be used in Hardcore Survival as well. The Beacon requires quite a bit of resources, so to motivate players into investing into it, your team can unlock beneficial effects with each phase of construction completed.
I'll spoil the first phase, when completed you will be able to summon helicopter support from the bar, which will carry it's own chain gun to rip through enemies. Helicopter support will hang around for a specific set of waves as long as it has fuel, no matter how long they take to complete. Once it runs out of fuel, it will return to base for refueling and can be immediately be called again but at a higher price. Be wary however, as if it's destroyed then it will take some time to be able to be called again. I wonder if helicopter deployment is only exclusive to the USC.. surely not?
And what of this mysterious Beacon? Where did it come from? What does it want? What happens when it's completed? Skipping to the last wave sure saves a lot of time, and it certainly isn't the average player's first rodeo in defeating such a wave. We can't be getting off that easy, could we..?
You do not need to reset your Steam achievements or GameJolt trophies, as achievement progress is primarily saved on the server along with weapon skins. So if you already have the achievement on Steam, it'll still be locked in-game.
You'll also get a break down of your skin collection, and a few individual stats for each weapon. Stats are collected on any map under any settings, I don't know how to really handle it any other way. I may add a clear stats button in case you're converted to a TDM exclusive player or something.
To solve this, I've made this new lore unlocking system, where once a day you can find lore codex in-game. The lore you get is random, so that allows me to write lore almost context free. In-game, it comes in the form of some media or vessel of information (CDs, hard drives, papers, etc). When you 'open' it in the lore menu, then you get a mostly nicely formatted article, which also has the ability to embed images.
If it's not already obvious why 100k+ folders full of files are bad, then switching to SQL will make everyone's save data much much easier to back up, as it would only be 1 file thats ~200mb. The login server has also been slowing down due to the mass of files constant growth, so once everyone's data is converted and we've been settled in, I can nuke all these files and hopefully see a performance boost
With this upload speed, my Upload-A-Billion-Hot-Fixes strategy isn't going to work very well. I'll need some time to figure this out before I can think of a date. I don't think beta17 is too broken, but I'm always needing mulligans.
Thanks for your support!
I tried to put some thought into its balance/design so it wasn't too much of a gimmick map, but I'm not entirely against those anyhow if it shows off the features of the map editor. I also cheated and made some new features for the map editor to accomplish making this map.
Prices aren't totally random but not quite in your control either, there are a few influences on a certain company's stock value such as shares being bought, weapons bought from the bar or chests, and from open bars/economy crashes. 
The primary fire has changed where you have to release left-click to reel yourself in the old fashioned way. This is a change that you might need time to get use to, but I did after a while and it has made the Grapple much more versatile. I also increased the pull and reload speed stats, so hopefully this should make it a desirable choice for mobility.
If you mess up the timing however, the reload starts over slower and you lose all held rounds in the current magazine.
Votekicking is now available to enable on your servers, however it's gonna work differently this time. Similar to doing dailies, you can only call 2 votekicks per day, on any server (unless you're the server host). By default, votekicking is turned off, but I'll have it enabled in my servers.
You can also set the color, opacity and size of tiles as seen above, which let me recycle big sprites on the train map. An example is the giant shipping containers, those are all 1 sprite loaded into memory but with the colors changed for each instance.
The Mortar has an interesting new alt-fire as well, where you can load certain 'Nades into it's tube. This can range from grenades, to the tomahawk.. and the Drone!
The Mortar has been given a small nerf, where left-click must be held down a couple frames before firing. It's another high range + high damage weapon, so this should hopefully help with the saturation of that.
It functions as a more traditional minigun now, similar to the Heavy's minigun. It must be wound up before firing, and has a similar aesthetic as the CTF turrets. Holding alt-fire will allow you to keep the barrel spun up.
You can also apply projectile colors to it from Premium. I was apprehensive at first but it just looks too neat to not have. When enemies are damage by the Goo Gun, their horizontal momentum is completely stopped, so it should be a helpful defensive weapons against players with mobility loadouts.
It has a new alt-fire, which will 'release' active bombs that are stuck to walls. Although it's not just for releasing, pressing alt-fire again will switch released active bombs back to sticking, and vice versa.
It has remained mostly the same, however I have shortened it's projectile range to help against the high damage + high range epidemic. It will also flash similar to the Bow when it is an optimal time to release the trigger to shoot, but hopefully if you are practiced from the old version the timing should feel very much the same.
It's darts also have the unique ability to track enemies they hit, similar to Drone spotting. The tracking last muchs longer then a Drone spot, so you and your teammates can stalk tranqed enemies for quite bit.
It has a new alt-fire, the Shockwave, which can push players and objects around, and provide an insane amount of pushback for the user, which will help you get around the map. I think it's now one of the most fastest mobility weapons in the game now.
It delivers a large burst of damage in short time, and can provide a little mobility for the user. I also added a little overheating effect, but it does not have any effect on the weapon's ability.
Like the old version I kept it as short as possible, and to only explain the bare necessities so new players aren't overwhelmed. I also tried to use symbols as much as possible over text, as many non-English speakers will try this game and I don't think I'll ever really have the capacity to properly localize things.
I will be enabling Fiesta mode on my weapons deal and take over servers, since they're not very populated anyways. I added this just this week, so not all mutators are used and it might be buggy.
As for the Acid Gun Drone change, this gives a weakness while still letting the pilot pour acid on enemies from up above like they have been. I'd say this change makes doing this easier in some situations, but now the drone can't spin around and melt you if you try to attack it from mid-range.
