Weapon bugs

Through some rather extensive weapon testing with a friend, I found some bugs (some are already listed on the page).

  • When fired while crit boosted, this weapon plays the stock sniper rifle firing sound.
  • This weapon fires silently when in focus.
  • No decapitations on a headshot kill.
  • Both SMGs use the tracer effect when in focus mode.

Until this weapon is fixed in the next patch, it should probably not receive a weapon demonstration. Dogspajamas 23:44, 27 June 2012 (PDT)

The ability to manually unscope in focus mode is currently listed as a bug. I'm pretty sure this is intentional and the item effects are just poorly worded, since it doesn't force you to scope at the beginning of focus. Thoughts? Extreme creme 13:52, 28 June 2012 (PDT)
All of the bugs listed here seem to have been fixed, other than the SMG tracers. I will resume working on a weapon demonstration. Dogspajamas 19:31, 28 June 2012 (PDT)
I'm fairly positive the "no unscoping" refers to the automatic unscope after firing, this is listed in blue as a positive element, being forced to remain scoped would be a negative thing. Nattack 19:44, 28 June 2012 (PDT)

It's probably worth noting that this weapon overrides the "User cannot be killed by Headshots" ability on the Croc'O'Style kit. Miffy92 20:46, 30 June 2012 (PDT)

Similarites between the weapons.

It's pretty obvious that this weapon was partly inspired by real weapon Wa2000 Roaper 12:45, 26 June 2012 (PDT)

Should we add that to the weapons trivia later? Roaper 12:49, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
I'd even go so far as to include a reference to the weapon as used in the Hitman series of games considering the TF2 name and the prominence of the WA2000 gun in that series. --Schtooben 14:47, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
The entire set is based on the movie, Léon: The Professional. Balladofwindfishes 15:18, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
Should we include that in the trivia then? Roaper 15:36, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
There's bound to be a source for it somewhere. We just need a source, other than me just knowing it from Emporium posts made months ago. Balladofwindfishes 17:18, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
Having trouble finding anything on it but it's a very obvious reference. 19:40, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
I'm not seeing the resemblance to the WA2000 at all, can someone point it out to me? ThunderGyra 23:42, 28 June 2012 (PDT)

Crafting recipe

The crafting recipe for the Hitman's Heatmaker is a reclaimed, a Machina and a Bazaar Bargain. Cheddars 19:24, 27 June 2012 (PDT)

No Decapitations?

I was just on walkway. It doesn't decapitate on headshots. Is this a glitch or just cause of the map? KingofKoopas 20:34, 27 June 2012 (PDT)

This has since been fixed. Dogspajamas 19:29, 28 June 2012 (PDT)

Decap achievements?

Since this weapon makes liberal use of the Eyelander code for decaps, can it get decap achievements? Balladofwindfishes 06:53, 30 June 2012 (PDT)

I believe the Decap achievement's are tied to certain weapons and the Heatmaker is not included. Roaper 18:30, 2 July 2012 (PDT)

Wa2000 or L96?

Okay, I know in the Trivia it states that it has the stock of a Wa2000 with the shape of a VSS. While I do agree that it is shaped like a VSS, the stock look a lot more like the stock on an L96 than a Wa2000. Any ideas on what we should do here? LazerEagle1 20:50, 5 July 2012 (PDT)

I'm pretty sure it's based on the WA2000's stock. I mean, they're both made of wood and also the top is straight. And it's design is very simple and a bit rectangular, instead of the AWM's more future-like one. kill 21:30, 5 July 2012 (PDT)
