Doves appeared in all Valve-made maps, with the exception of Arena maps, Target and Item Test. There were 78 perched doves in total.
There were two types of doves, perched and flying. The perched doves did not move, blink, or fly; they remained perfectly stationary, unless attacked or touched by a player which would cause them to explode. The explosion caused no damage or knockback. Doves that had exploded would re-appear at the beginning of a new round. The flying doves appeared whenever a Scout was killed via gibbing. While perched doves were removed after the update, flying doves remain.
On June 17, 2011, the Team Fortress website was updated with pictures of doves and dove droppings across the top of the main page. Additionally, clicking on one of the three doves "perched" at the top of the page lead to three different pictures, each with different connotations to the Medic: a bombed, ruined hospital, a waiting room, and a doctor's office, respectively, and all of which appeared empty and abandoned. On June 20th, 2011, the doves on the main page were removed due to the redesign of the Team Fortress website.
Locations
See Dove locations for a listing of all dove sightings.
Update history
- [Undocumented] Doves have been added to all Valve-made maps.
- Fixed a problem related to spawning multiple entities unnecessarily between mini-rounds.
- Fixed a server crash triggered during entity cleanup.
- [Undocumented] Added a new "Dove" model with flight animations.
June 23, 2011 Patch (Über Update)
- [Undocumented] Removed doves from the maps they were placed on.
Bugs
- There was a dove near the center of Well on a rafter that could not be killed through conventional methods, as it was inside of a clip brush that blocks all weapons fire or entry. This dove could only be killed by sticky jumping and hitting it with the Ullapool Caber or through the use of noclip. None of the other doves had this problem.
Trivia
- Doves can be seen in a teaser image of Meet the Medic,[1] and the final panel of Meet the Director.[2]
- A dove appears on the icon of the Medic achievement, Ubi Concordia, Ibi Victoria.
