Revision as of 12:45, 30 December 2021

Look at all those people scrambling around with their tiny, ugly guns. But this-- this gun is b-e-a-utiful. So pick this beast up and blast away those distrustful little buggers all the way to Hell. Is it worth it? Of course it is.
Tomislav publicity blurb

The Tomislav is a community-created primary weapon for the Heavy, which he has named "Svetlana".[1] It is an oversized, heavily modified Thompson submachine gun with two handles, a cylindrical ammo drum connected to its underside, and a carrying sling hanging from the drum to the handguard.

The weapon features a 20% faster spin-up time and 20% more accuracy than the default Minigun. It also features the "Silent Killer" effect of no maintained spin-up sound, though it still has a quiet jingling sound as the weapon begins spinning-up. However, this comes at the cost of a 20% reduction in firing speed.

July 8, 2014 Patch

  • Minigun: Winding up via secondary attack now counts toward reducing the one-second accuracy penalty.

February 11, 2015 Patch #1

  • Fixed not being able to switch away from the Minigun while spinning down.

July 2, 2015 Patch (Gun Mettle Update)

  • Minigun damage penalty on Level 2 and Level 3 Sentry Guns slightly decreased. Level 2 Sentry resistance changed from 20% to 15% and Level 3 changed from 33% to 20%.

  • Accuracy and damage penalties now reset when the Heavy spins down, rather than when the Heavy stops firing. This means if you stay spun-up beyond one second, and fire in bursts, damage and accuracy will remain at 100%.

December 21, 2017 Patch (Smissmas 2017)

Bugs

  • When firing, the muzzle flash may not be correctly displayed.
  • The Tomislav's ambient occlusion bake is inconsistent with the model; the portion where the gun attaches to the barrel is inconsistent from where the AO bake shows the attachment's shadow should be.
  • If secondary fire is held down at the same time as primary fire until 1 bullet remains, if the heavy taps primary fire the muzzle flare and firing noise will continue to play. This is visible by other players and in third person.
  • Due to a separate bug with every other Minigun increasing their attack interval by .005, the "Fires 20% slower" attribute of the Tomislav is inaccurate, it currently "Fires 15% slower" relative to stock.
  • When holding the primary fire button during a taunt, the Tomislav's muzzle flash turns invisible.

Trivia

  • The name Tomislav is derived from the Slavic verb tomiti, meaning "to suppress". It is also a portmanteau the words "Tommy", short for "Tommy gun", a nickname for the Thompson submachine gun (a World War II-era firearm popularly associated with gangsters), and "Slav", short for Slavic, in reference to the earlier origin.
