Talk:Hot Hand

Requested Move: Slap Attack

Valve decided last minute to rename the weapon from "Hot Hand" to "Slap Attack." Although the Day 3 page calls it the Hot Hand, the patch notes call it the Slap Attack. http://www.teamfortress.com/jungleinferno/notes.php -- Dr. Scaphandre 14:48, 20 October 2017 (PDT)

Turns out they didn't change the name after all and it was just a typo. -- Dr. Scaphandre 15:34, 20 October 2017 (PDT)

If the BLU Hot Hand is unseen in-game, shouldn't it be unused content?

Also, I'm not sure where this BLU skin was found, because both c_slapping_glove and w_slapping_glove has the grey color for both teams (as well a third unused skin with a slightly darker yellow band). Was it eventually replaced (to use the same colors as the RED team) after the initial patch in the Jungle Inferno Update? - ▪ - 14:06, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

It seems Valve silently replaced/removed it in an unknown patch. The BLU variant never had its own texture; they merely manipulated the colors via the VMT file, but for some reason it never got applied to the viewmodel.  Wookipan (talk | contribs) 15:43, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
