Ideas

Ashe's ideas

I've see that a demonstration is already in the channel, Dustbowl Default, private (I didn't know the existence of this until a few days ago. However, I made a demonstration video for a well known... class?. I have already the thumbnail and I will prepare the page in a sandbox. Also, I've seen that a you guys would prefer a «kinda serious» video.

I love this. — Tark lm(pt-br) 22:30, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Alright, this is the thumbnail for the video (i had to redo it) and I'll move the page to Team Fortress Wiki:April Fools' Day/2021/Pharah (and a temporal redirect: Pharah) in March 30. For the moment, i would appreciate to you guys to correct any typo or grammar error in User:Ashe/APFO2021 · Ashe (talk) 23:37, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Dereko just checked the thumbnail, how about make it a "hero demonstration" instead of "weapon"? Hope it's not too late to note that. 13:16, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, my bad, I forgot to change the name. Here's the new version · Ashe (talk) 15:55, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Final preperations

Okay, so per the previous discussion pranks are due to go live at March 31st @ 11am Pacific time, in order to ensure it's always April 1st for all timesones. That's in exactly 18 hours and 6 minutes from this message. In addition, several things such as the Lab Rats Dab were cut due to lack of ability to make good pages. If you see any of this, please remove it. The YouTube video for the Dustbowl Default is on YouTube's scheduled upload, and is private right now, but will become Public at the time above. This is the same time that all pages should be moved. However, we will need an admin to replace the main page with User:Zeklyn/aprilfools2020. We also need to find someone with twitter access to tweet out the fake patch. Other than that, everything should be good to go. Naleksuh (talk) 23:54, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Hello!

After some consideration, we have decided to postpone the event until next year (2021).

We're really rushing this one and we barely have anything to show off. We feel that if we're just going to deliver a subpar/sloppy prank, we'll better be off stay : quiet. Content for this year will be preserved and we'll be using it for the next year's prank.

I know this might be disappointing to hear, but we'll be definitely more prepared with some more time. — Tark lm(pt-br) 06:28, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Yeah i'm simultaneously upset but also glad because a lot of the stuff that was cut, this is a redemption as we have the entire year to get stuff that's better. However, the youtube upload is still currently scheduled, as I have no way to turn that off. Only thedop has the access and he is offline. I did message him, hopefully he can cancel it before it goes live. Naleksuh (talk) 07:50, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

However, the one problem may be the joke about COVID-19, which could be not relevant in a year from now. Perhaps it could be a good idea to either tweet out "Due to COVID-19, all Casual matches have been suspended until April 15th, 2020.", or to simply trash the whole thing entirely. Naleksuh (talk) 07:55, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Understandable have a good day :). In all seriousness I do believe this is the right call, not many people had the time or opportunity to figure out their ideas with how late this whole thing was. Tekinz (talk) 08:04, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

It is OK to take a Moo-lligan.

Staff Disclaimer

Everything should settled on and ready by March 31. Take all the time you need until then to discuss, organize, and put together everything you'd like to show up in the fake update.

Please try to avoid the following:

New weapons or balance changes that are based on actual problems with TF2

Bug fixes or game changes that address actual TF2 problems

Anything regarding matchmaking or promised features

Try to make something that is very obviously a joke update, it's better to go over the top than to be subtle. It's okay to make fun of other Valve games, as long as it's done in jest rather than out of malice. — Tark lm(pt-br) 20:54, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Other discussions

Timestamp

• At what time will these pranks go live? Should they cater to people in all timezones or just washington time? The first meaning that it may start at 2pm on March 31st for people in the US, and the second meaning that there could be no pranks when its april first in other countrie's time. Naleksuh (talk) 22:19, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

I don't know what our policy is on things like this, but I think common sense tells to apply it to all timezones - go live as soon as it's April 1st somewhere, and stay live for as long as April 1st still lasts somewhere. Washington time or any other timezone shouldn't be considered 'superior' or more important than others. VasyaTheWizard ^{(talk) • (contributions)} 15:35, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

The day switches on the far east Russian island of Big Diomede
GrampaSwood (talk) 20:11, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Thing is the timezones can span by a while. According to my calculations, in order to ensure it's up for the entirety of April 1st in every timezone, we would need to put it up at 3am on march 31st, then take it down at 4am on april 2nd, which is a span of two entire days total. But I don't see that as a huge problem. We could also save a bit of time by guaranteeing it up at 8am instead of Midnight, meaning it would be put up at 11am march 31st washington time. I'll save the details for later on, but right now it's just to worry about and make sure everything is ready on the 31st to go live then (washington time). Naleksuh (talk) 21:31, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

My friend on Steam suggested to do Eastern Time, then he added that it should be on "March 31st @ midnight Washington time" (Washington time = EDT). I think we should keep at least April 2, 2020 @ midnight Washington time. - ▪ - 20:38, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

No, when I say washington time I'm referring to the time in Valve HQ, where all dates on this wiki are measured from. That's pacific time, three hours behind eastern time. March 31st at midnight would be about three hours before it's april 1st anywhere on earth, unless you meant March 31st at 11:59.

Anyway, I checked using the Samoas and we need to put it up at March 31st at 11am (Washington/Pacific/GMT-8 time), and take it down on April 2nd, at 4am (same time). Naleksuh (talk) 21:14, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Half-Life: Alyx

Does anyone have any good idea for Half Life:alyx? Dereko thinks we should not miss this hot topic. 13:44, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Absolutely i think too. Maybe "Valve Corporation decided to develop a VR game for the Team Fortress series due Half Life: Alyx's success". Something like this might be good ManyaKadir (talk) 14:23, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Translation work

• If we are going to make translation pages as well, that means we have to create another sub page in the user pages. Is this all right?
• What's the best time to create the translation pages, will there be any deadline?
• Chinese Mainland people cannnot visit Youtube without a VPN, so maybe we can upload same videos in Bilibili (a popular Chinese video webite) and link to them in the Chinese pages?

03:46, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Same deadline as above: March 31. Please do translate them under the subpages - I'll move everything once we're ready. I'm not really sure about uploading them to Bilibili since we don't have embeds for that, but feel free to. — Tark lm(pt-br) 19:46, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Patch page

It appears Tark created an April 1, 2020 patch just a couple minutes before mine. However, I believe that mine is formatted better and more accurately reflects the discussions here. Is it possible to merge them? Naleksuh (talk) 22:41, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

And now Tark has also decided to delete the other one because authoritarianism Naleksuh (talk) 22:42, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

It's an official page and Tark's page is on his own user domain. It's not authoritarianism it's that you created it a good 11 minutes later.

Patch note ideas:

• Turned all classes into pickles. Funniest shit we've ever seen.  5 |  1  Added
• Depending on the value of the cosmetics a class is wearing, the class will receive a damage bonus ranging from -5% when there's no hats to +50% with expensive Unusuals.  3 |  1
• All servers now host a 100% crit cp_orange or trade_minecraft map.  5 |  0  Added
• Removed "Report" button because it was used too much. (Credit to Fiat_Seicento for this one).  5 |  0  Added
• Players often complained that matches don't last long enough on maps like 2Fort and Hightower. To fix this, we put invisible walls in the middle of the map to make it impossible to do the objectives.  5 |  0  Added

These are just some of my ideas, feel free to vote on it. Idk what the threshold is for accepting one, I guess we'll have to figure that out based on the amount of people that want to participate
GrampaSwood (talk) 18:46, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Some of these don't sound like real patch notes. They should sound like real patch notes unless the goal is explicitly not to. Naleksuh (talk) 18:51, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

In Jungle Inferno they added some explanation, patch notes can just be general gameplay changes and don't have to be "added 10% extra damage to Iron Bomber".
GrampaSwood (talk) 18:53, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

I'm talking about stuff like instead of "Due to an increase in reports that matches don't last long enough on maps like 2Fort and Hightower, we put invisible walls in the middle of the map to make it impossible to do the objectives." it would be something like "Added invisible walls to prevent pushing the payload in Hightower" or "Fixed a bug where the intelligence could be picked up in 2Fort". Because it doesn't sound like valve's writing style. However, a possible exception to this could be "FIX BUG w/ h1gh tower cart being pushed" (something they obviously would not write, as part of the joke) Naleksuh (talk) 20:26, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

I'll change it a bit. Though please vote on them.
GrampaSwood (talk) 20:33, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

I also propose a possible hoax in addition to the main page changes. For example, about the heavy update dropping. Just like with previous years, there can be articles about it (that will be moved into Project namespace once it's April 2nd US time, April 3rd EU time), and YouTube demonstrations as well. Naleksuh (talk) 20:26, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

IIRC no speculation like "heavy update about to drop" or something similar, because there was something against plausible things like that I don't remember exactly what it was though.
GrampaSwood (talk) 20:33, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

How about "Dropped the heavy update" as a patch note with no furthur explanation like Fiat Seicento suggests, and we'll come up with a new "big hoax"? Naleksuh (talk) 20:45, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

• Adjusted inflation of MvM money  5 |  0  Added

• Diary products such as Mad milk will now deal more damage to non lactose tolerant players  5 |  0  Added

FiatSeicento 20:41, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Most of these are good except the party and covid pandemic. For these I would like some changes. Keep in mind that keeping them on the same team is already the option, you may mean to have them not on the team. And for COVID-19, how about "players can't get within 10 feet of each other" instead of all matches suspended? Naleksuh (talk) 20:45, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Personally I'm in favour of suspending the matches instead of being 1,5m from each other.
GrampaSwood (talk) 21:43, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Hmmm, perhaps it would be better as a banner instead of a patch note, as it would be out of place then. Naleksuh (talk) 19:02, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

"Artifact promotional items" Only if someone is willing to actually create them (eg.: Ricochet 2 promo items). — Tark lm(pt-br) 19:58, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Not really. We don't need to repeat the same steps from previous April fools events. If we ever go to the point of making pages for these "so-called" Artifact promotional items, we mark them as "unused content" that was only found on tf_english.txt with no materials/models, problem solved. - ▪ - 22:25, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Denied's changes

• Fixed a bug causing the community to constantly complain about the game being dead.  4 |  1  Added
• Added the Spring Cleaning Cosmetic Case<ref>Currently cannot be opened, because the key used to open it wasn't implemented to the game yet</ref>  0 |  0  Nope

Denied (Talk) 20:57, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

"Spring Cleaning Cosmetic Case" would imply an update. We will need at least some joke items, maps, etc. — Tark lm(pt-br) 19:58, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Gabrielwoj's ideas

I've made these long ago, somewhere in February. They are how it'd look on a patch note, so some items have "extra items" below them: * Introducing the Unusual Trade Up system

• • Players can now change 5 untradable Gen I and Gen III Unusuals in exchange to a tradable Gen II Unusual  6 |  0  Added
• Fixed a bug that certain crates weren't giving a 100% guarantee Unusual upon opening it  5 |  0  Added
• Updated the Vote System
  • Players can no longer vote while playing on plr_hightower and plr_hightower_event  5 |  1
• Weapon changes
  • Market Gardener: Now a reskin to the Shovel
    • Developer notes: We felt that players wielding the Market Gardener was forgeting the core mechanics of TF2, the teamplay. Many players with the Market Gardner would completely forget their teammates, and go just for the Twitch clips. We are still keeping the models and textures untouched, but the weapon now works exactly like the Shovel  4 |  1
  • Phlogistinator: Added back full heatlh refill upon using MMPH
    • Developer notes: We felt that the Phlogistinator wasn't very powerful yet, so we are adding more buffs to it  2 |  2

* Added two new Bot names

• • Crate Depression and Spaghetti Code  5 |  0  Added
• Added the Fort Knight item set ( https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1825677260 )
  • Consists of Homebase Hairdo, Drop Top and Default Defenders  3 |  0
• Added a new community-made taunt ( The Lab Rats Dab )  5 |  0

Regarding the items, we'll need to contact the creators beforehand. — Tark lm(pt-br) 19:58, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Why? I'm sure item creators will be more than happy for having their items advertised in any way on the Wiki. Plus, we don't need to have each page for each new cosmetic with an image preview because the Wiki doesn't have everything set up on the first day, it usually takes some time for people to add info to it, no need if the stuff we're putting on this update is all fake. The Dab taunt isn't even on the Workshop, people will figure out it's fake as soon they click on the video and read the intro. - ▪ - 22:25, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

The wiki is not for advertisement and we nor Valve "own" these items. Period.

Also, I'd rather not host this event if all we'll be doing is just create a bunch of fake patchnotes and treat the cool stuff as "we just found this on tf_english.txt, but can't create a page right now, sorry :D". — Tark lm(pt-br) 03:48, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Not to sound mean or anything, but I feel like this one isn't going anywhere. As Tarko said, it's just a bunch of fake patchnotes, most of them not even being that good, and that's pretty much all we have. Unless someone comes up with some really cool extra stuff for the event, I'd be in favour of skipping it as well. The prank could be that there is no prank. VasyaTheWizard ^{(talk) • (contributions)} 06:15, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Yeah I'm in full agreement with Tark on that one, I just didn't know how to word it. However, I feel like in addition to these patch notes there can also possibly be item pages, which might make it a bit cooler. There will also be a COVID-19 banner, edited homepage, and (possibly) some YouTube videos. So I think it's a bit more than some patch notes. Does that make it a better april fools? Naleksuh (talk) 07:57, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Personally, I think a corona theme would be nice. However, I can't do any of the editing of the main page but I could give some ideas.
GrampaSwood (talk) 09:01, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

* New 02-22-2020: Added Smash Bros. promotional item

• • The Battle Ballot - Awarded in Genuine quality for those who pre-purchase Heavy as a DLC fighter in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.  1 |  0  Nope

Note from the author suggestion: The Smash Bros. promo item would work well if Nintendo doesn't announce any new character on the game before April 1st, although there's rumors that there might be a Nintendo Direct soon.

Note 2: Because it's a purchase from a store that isn't Steam, probably there should be a mention saying that players who purchased Heavy in Smash should redeem the code that comes with the purchase.

Nintendo is very protective with their IPs, I'd rather not. — Tark lm(pt-br) 19:58, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

It's a joke, it's not meant to be real information. If anything, discard the part about "buying the Fighter Pass Vol. 2" so people won't buy it thinking they'll get the item. Everyone is going to stop at "buy Heavy DLC" because (most likely) there'll be none. - ▪ - 22:25, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

I did acquired permission and taunt files from the creator of the Lab Rats Dab taunt. Naleksuh (talk) 03:00, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

That's great. Are you able to make a fake taunt page for it? I think that'd be really cool. — Tark lm(pt-br) 03:48, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Yeah that should be very easy. A taunt demonstration YouTube video would be harder but still possible. Naleksuh (talk) 07:57, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

I'm gonna start a concept page to see if we can get this started, it will be in Gabrielwoj's sandbox (permission was given) Tekinz (talk) 22:12, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Gabrielwoj's ideas (Part 2)

After consideration, this suggestion is removed as it is the only content in the entire patch notes that WILL actually happen. However, the page for said event, along with its content, is planned to be on the wiki regardless. Bot Rot (talk) 03:03, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Naleksuh's ideas

• Fixed a bug where Heavy could take damage  3 |  1
• Added the tenth class  2 |  1
• Removed 2fort  1 |  5  Nope
• Added a vote to enable cheats  5 |  0  Nope. We did this last year.
• Removed the ability to join community servers  2 |  2

I feel like the last one falls under something that addresses a problem in TF2, there's been a problem with community servers declining in the last few years.
GrampaSwood (talk) 08:14, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Dereko personally dislike the last one, as it sounds more creepy instead of funny. 13:36, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Dereko's ideas

• You can now type "heavyisdead" in the console to suicide.  1 |  1

BrazilianNut's ideas

• Fixed an issue where the Spy would be unable to attack enemies or attach sappers to buildings while invisible  1 |  2
• Sappers can now be attached to sappers  4 |  0  Added

Undocumented changes

• Keys are no longer needed for opening crates and cases.  1 |  2  Nope. Economy related.
• Removed the localization files. Game is now entirely in Vietnamese.  2 |  1

or the plain but good and old

• Updated the localization files.  0 |  1  Nope. Duplicate, see above

I have removed the top two, which violate Tark's rules. Rest are cool though. Naleksuh (talk) 04:04, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Tekinz's idea

• Added an official new taunt for the Scout
  • The Dustbowl Default  2 |  0  Added. Please improve the description a little bit.

I've prepared a few images and a joke demonstration video to create a page for this april fools joke.
I currently have a concept in my sandbox at User:Tekinz/Sandbox/AF2020 though I'm not sure how to create a proper page for the idea.I'm sure we'll be able to get
this working if someone experienced were to take some of these assets and put them together only thing missing right now is a Summary, trivia, and some touch ups.

I think it would be best if the demonstration was serious, like all other demonstrations, except containing a joke taunt. Sort of like how the circular circlesaw demonstration was. If you send me the taunt files, I could take care of that for you. Naleksuh (talk) 00:49, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

I'd prefer to keep the current video instead as the joke is built around being silly and absurd. E.g. the victory royale image I made is completely out of place and informal which is generally what I'm going for. I believe it would be more enjoyable to have this fake taunt page not taken seriously/formally. Tekinz (talk) 01:52, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

Also I should mention that there is already The Lab Rats Dab taunt which will have a regular demonstration. If there is a second one, shouldn't it be like the first? If this particular version is used though, I don't think there will be a huge problem. Naleksuh (talk) 02:02, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

While I do favor having continuity, overall I don't think these issues should matter too much as it is all a joke. I enjoy my current video as it acts like a small trick, deceving the viewer into believing it was a standard demonstration. Something to say dang I got fooled ya' know?

Wookipan's ideas

• Increased damage of the Tomislav
  • In addition to this, the Tomislav are now equipped with a rifle scope so that the Heavy is able to counter the Sniper more easily.  1 |  0
• Removed Afterburn as it was too confusing for new players.  1 |  0  Done

• Sandviches thrown by the enemy team are now poisonous and will drain players' health rapidly.  1 |  0  Done

I've got another trick up my sleeve, however that's a bit more technical and will be revealed later. - Actually nevermind, it doesn't really fit the current theme and we're most likely out of time anyway.  Wookipan (talk | contribs) 16:19, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
