| − | | |
| − | Here are some Ideas:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. '''Scout''': Standard Bat Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Scout presents it as if it were the "Slap Chop" (Taunt)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. '''Soldier''': Shovel Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Soldier bites the head off as if it were a grenade, and it explodes (Kill Taunt)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. '''Pyro''': Axe Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Pyro plays with it as if it were an airplane or as if it were a Ken Doll.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. '''Demoman''': Bottle Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Demoman unscrews the head and drinks from it as if it was a flask.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 5. '''Engineer''': Wrench Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Engineer places it ontop of a Sentry or Dispenser (Essentially, A Building Hat)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 6. '''Heavy''': Sandwitch Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Primary or Secondary: Heavy eats the award as if it was made of chocolate (Heal Taunt)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 7. '''Medic''': Saw Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Uses it to test his knee Reflexes (Kill Taunt)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 8. '''Sniper''': Kuri Replacement
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Holds it in one hand and flicks the head with his finger and says "Boom Headshot".
| |
| − | | |
| − | 9. '''Spy''': Knife Replacement (Works just like the knife, but with new backstab animation. Uses it just like those small flexable weighted clubs you use to knock someone out by hitting them in the back of the head)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondary: Spy tries to disguise himself as SAXTON HALE but only lasts a taunt duration.

| − | ==Composition==
| |
| − | ''"While the First Annual Saxxy Awards promotional video reveals that the Saxxy is made of 75% Australium, the blog post promoting the announcement of the contest winners refers to it as a "handsome 100% Australium-plated Saxton Hale statuette", adding further vagueness to its actual composition."''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Isn't that extra 25% likely to mean the stand, which is probably wood or metal? --'''[[User:Cooper Kid|<span style="color:red">Coo</span><span style ="color:gray">per</span><span style ="color:blue"> Kid</span>]]''' <small>([[User_talk:Cooper Kid|Blether]]''' · '''[[Special:Contributions/Cooper Kid|Contreebs]])</small> 01:41, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

| |
| − | ::75% overall, total of the statue. A small percentage of that (probably 10-15%) was used to completely plate it. I theorize it is 100% Australium on the outside, then a layer of some heavy metal, followed by a nuggety Australium center. [[User:SilverHammer|SilverHammer]] 01:46, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | :::The important thing is that the second statement says it's 100% Australium-''plated'', so they aren't really contradicting one another. --'''[[User:Cooper Kid|<span style="color:red">Coo</span><span style ="color:gray">per</span><span style ="color:blue"> Kid</span>]]''' <small>([[User_talk:Cooper Kid|Blether]]''' · '''[[Special:Contributions/Cooper Kid|Contreebs]])</small> 01:48, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

| |
| − | | |
| − | == Related achievements ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I think the related achievements should go away. There are no achievements particular to the Saxxy and they are cluttering the page. Perhaps a bit in the Trivia section or whatever that says melee achievements can also be earned with the Saxxy. --[[User:Drunken F00l|Drunken F00l]] 03:31, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | *{{c|Yes}} Its just seems like we are using too much space. If there was an achievement directly attached to this weapon specifically, then that would be much different. But this is not the case. I think that either Drunken F00l's suggestion or having the achievements in a collapsible table would suffice. [[File:User_M-NINJA_Signature.png|link=User:M-NINJA]] 03:37, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | *{{c|Yes}} I agree, remove the related achievements. By the way, I was right when I predicted that the Saxxy was going to be a weapon. Boo-yah. [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 04:51, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | *{{c|Nope.avi}} A collapsible table might be needed, but outright removal is out of the question for reasons of consistency within the wiki.--<span style="color:purple">'''''[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]]'''''</span> 04:57, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | *{{c|No}} It's really rare to find achievements particular to any unlock. Only a few milestone unlocks have ''any''. A collapsible table would be good. In general I'd say the term "related achievements" is better fitting for class pages and the section title for weapon pages should be something that connotes "achievements this item can get you." [[User:Minwu|Minwu]] 01:45, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | *{{c|No}} I agree with the above two. Don't remove it. I don't think the clutter is that bad (It's an all-class weapon, what do you expect?) but I agree with the notion of making it collapsible. - [[User:TommoPuppy|TommoPuppy]] 07:28, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

| − | == Custom viewmodels not implemented? ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I'm no expert on first person viewmodels and the like, but there are proper models for the classes holding the Saxxy in the game files as well as unique sounds, as this video shows [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Oooftm9HzA]]. Obviously the item is brand new so we don't have good quality images of it in 1st person view yet, but the trivia section mention severe animation and clipping issues with the Heavy and the weapon using default item sounds, so I think this should be put into the bug section, or at least given a mention in the trivia--[[User:1000 ninjas|1000 ninjas]] 09:43, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | == Show the new animations for this weapon on this page? ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | As we all know; Medic, Spy, Heavy, Pyro and maybe Engineer got new animations just for this weapon. It's going to take a while until another weapon that uses these animations is added to the game, so I though: How about adding videos, or GIFs on this page to see the animations in action. No, I don't mean the usual weapon demonstration. More like an '''Animation Demonstration'''. --[[User:GameManXD|GameManXD]] 06:27, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

| − | == Is this really a bug? ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | "Deaths caused by the Fencing taunt and backstab use their default kill icon."
| |
| − | | |
| − | This seems more like a conscious choice by Valve for game balance, mainly for backstabs. Any opinions? [[User:FlotsamX|FlotsamX]] 21:56, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | : It really amazes me the insane reasons people come up with for why things aren't bugs. Game balance? Seriously? How?--<span style="color:purple">'''''[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]]'''''</span> 22:21, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :: People who follow the kill feed are usually aware of Spies via the backstab kill icon. If this icon was the Saxxy icon instead, then it would be more difficult to determine if a Spy is about. [[User:FlotsamX|FlotsamX]] 22:24, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | ::: Note that the bug entry is not contesting that the kill icon should be a regular Saxxy and thus upset the supposed game balance. It is merely noting that the kill icon is not something more appropriate (such as a Saxxy backstabbing the figure). It seems illogical therefore to remove it under the pretense that 'valve intended it'.--<span style="color:purple">'''''[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]]'''''</span> 22:33, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :::: I'm not suggesting it should be immediately removed, I'm just bringing up that it might not be a bug. I suppose neither side is right or wrong until Valve chimes in, or changes something.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ::::(PS, backstabbing someone with a trophy sounds like a hilarious idea for a kill icon, someone needs to get on this) [[User:FlotsamX|FlotsamX]] 22:39, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | The fact that the Kunai and YER knives do not have unique Backstab icons leads me to believe this isn't a bug. [[User:Minwu|Minwu]] 01:40, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | | |
| − | : I would counter this by saying that the Kunai and YER are still fundamentally knifes. Indeed, the kill icon for the backstab features a steak knife. As such I would have to agree, had this been on the Kunai or YER page, it would not be a bug. The Saxxy however, is not a knife in any sense. It is therefore so different that it must be mentioned as a bug.--<span style="color:purple">'''''[[User:Focusknock|Focusknock]]'''''</span> 01:45, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::The thing with the fencing taunt versus the backstab is the backstab is a generic knife that could just be a symbol for backstabbing, while the fencing taunt uses the specific butterfly knife as its icon. [[User:Balladofwindfishes|Balladofwindfishes]] 01:57, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
