[QUOTE=Garik;34338613]I just backstab them when they taunt. Gotta love it when I save the entire team.[/QUOTE] I thought backstabs didnt kill them while they were Mmmph taunting

[QUOTE=vkggg;34338669]I thought backstabs didnt kill them while they were Mmmph taunting[/QUOTE] Nope, kills him. I've done it before. (Backstabs do x6 whatever hp the target has) The rage is glorious.

[QUOTE=Pocket Medic;34338221]wheres the bullshit run away if you see a pyro taunting, wait for him to stop taunting and shoot or just run for it[/QUOTE] Because the pyro has to taunt in pain sight, he totally can't just hide to taunt and then enter a room and destroy everything.

[QUOTE=Guitarplayer213;34334220]Really? Blutsauger to me is a straight upgrade, I haven't used the stock one since I got the blutsauger.[/QUOTE] The Blutsauger's reduced health recovery always gets me screwed over - thinking I can survive being on fire and then the realization that I were wrong all along.

[QUOTE=LPG55;34338744]Because the pyro has to taunt in pain sight, he totally can't just hide to taunt and then enter a room and destroy everything.[/QUOTE] This. The pyro is balanced around being an ambush class (even though it has become more of a combo class over time) so it's not that hard for him to take a group of enemies by surprise, and this coupled with the crits make the plog strong. Now saying the phlog is op? that's a little extreme. let's say it's a viable weapon.

The phlo is a pure ambush weapon. (Op ? A little.)

[QUOTE=NoNameForEvil;34339272]Ambushing = Waiting above a place for enemies to run past so you can use the Backburner's back crits or something. The Phlogistinator = Standing behind a corner in a room nobody will enter, taunting, getting healed and being impossible to kill and then rushing through an entire team, being able to tank Sentries and wipe out Heavies instantly.[/QUOTE] Tank sentries with the phlogistinator? You do know that the damage reduction only happens during the taunt and crits don't affect buildings. You could just tank it with the default flamethrower.

I play with the phlosignator as I call it "Pro"- or more "Less 'Noobish'". Phlosignator+Manmelter+Powerjack OR Homewrecker. The tactic actually takes some skills, because during taunt you are vournable for spies, and loadsapeople might decide to aim on your and as soon as the taunt is gone kill you instantly. First fill it up. I often use the manmelter and just gain it on snipers, or finding a Dead Ringer spy (If you M1 a dead ringer spy while he is cloaked you fill up before the cloak is fully gone) Then I wait, either to get low HP and use it as a heal, or, during payload I wait for the cart to pass before taunting, jumping down and slaughtering.

Holy shit that looks like something STRAIGHT out of Goof Troop.

Am I the only one who HATES the Archimedes soundtrack in the main menu? I find it painful to listen to it

[QUOTE=-=NARH=-;34336966]It's when they have a lower ping that you and they move around a lot. Not attacking, just jumping and dodging everywhere. It pisses me off even though I do it too.[/QUOTE] Uh, taking advantage of lag compensation would be having terribly high ping so that they look like they're teleporting to you I've seen it before, how am I supposed to shoot them?

Why do people get mad when I use the Sydney Sleeper?

[QUOTE=GastricTank;34299285][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/fevFy.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Funny thing, it's STILL overstocked

[QUOTE=Hilarious Pill;34346346]Am I the only one who HATES the Archimedes soundtrack in the main menu? I find it painful to listen to it[/QUOTE] I was thinking that "Archimedes" was the song when Medic comes out of the door with the angelic voices, and I was about to agree with you, as that song in all honesty doesn't fit at all for menu music. But then I saw that Archimedes is the awesome song with the accordion and the clarinet.

[QUOTE=iRunner;34346619]Funny thing, it's STILL overstocked[/QUOTE] Inflation's a bitch.

[QUOTE=Odox;34346523]Why do people get mad when I use the Sydney Sleeper?[/QUOTE] Because it's a sniper rifle that [i]can't[/I] headshot. Snipers are meant to shoot heads and many feel that you should at least goddamn [I]try [/I]to fulfill that purpose.

Snipers typically have specialized training and distinct high-precision rifles. Nowhere in there does it say he needs to pull of headshots.

[QUOTE=tepholman;34347145]Obligatory defence: it's a support rifle designed to help your teammates take down a enemy rather than by overwhelming damage.[/QUOTE] Thing is, you're helping your team more by killing the Heavy by shooting him in the face rather than taking his health down to half and covering him in pee. SS is a relatively useless rifle right now. If you have less-than-great aim, you shouldn't be playing Sniper. It's not a superiority thing, it's just true. If you aren't good at getting headshots, play a different class where you'll be more useful.

I like the Croc set :downs: Yes I'm taking part of conversation of what a sniper is suppose to do.

[QUOTE=Bryceanater;34347950]I like the Croc set :downs: Yes I'm taking part of conversation of what a sniper is suppose to do.[/QUOTE] Too bad it requires a set hat.

How buds and Bill's go way up but Bill's go down in relation to Earbuds Buds go from 15 keys to 24 keys Bill's go from 5 keys to 9 keys. Buds go from 2 painted Bill's to 3 Painted Bill's, and that's if you're lucky enough to find a buyer. Like what the shit is this

[QUOTE=Scarabix;34348171]Too bad it requires a set hat.[/QUOTE] Yeah. At this point is worthless and annoying to use the hat for the set bonus. They really need to change the requirements for the first item sets.

[QUOTE=axemunger;34348229]This kind of mentality really bugs me, because if unskilled people aren't allowed to play as a Sniper, then how are they supposed to improve ?[/QUOTE] Let me put it a different way. I'm very good at twitch aiming. I play Scout a lot as a result, and I do rather well with it. If I try to play Sniper, I'm absolutely terrible. The Sydney Sleeper seems to be made for twitch aimers to be able to play sniper, which completely defeats the purpose of the Sniper's precision. Some people are just naturally more inclined to play certain classes. If you aren't good at precision aiming, just go with a different class.

You should try mge'ing with a friend thats about the same sniping skill level as you, i find that helps heaps aswell. I dislike soldiers that taunt after getting a crocket kill :\
