Too late, I killed you with my Minigun :downs:
[QUOTE=En Bengt;32751587]Too late, I killed you with my Minigun :downs:[/QUOTE] We'll meet again... No for real, GRU ain't that useless. I barely play Heavy but when I do I get some kills with my strange GRU.
I mostly see it as a faster way to get to the front lines as heavy. I have no idea why they made a strange version of it.
[QUOTE=En Bengt;32751673]I mostly see it as a faster way to get to the front lines as heavy. I have no idea why they made a strange version of it.[/QUOTE] Same reason they made a strange Targe maybe?
Enough talking about the GRU let us speculate some more.

[QUOTE=DatWut?;32751698]Same reason they made a strange Targe maybe?[/QUOTE] So to be a useless weapon nobody wants to make you buy more keys to get the one you do want?
I'm pretty sure VALVe wanted to play with thoses new hats a little more before publishing them :3
Went to bed with dreams of a magical update. Woke up with them shattered.

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32750329]so, after tomorrow's update, this thread will just fade into the shadows of old threads. I'm going to miss this thread, and I feel like in the future Valve isn't going to make so many leaky mistakes, so another thread like this may never exist again. Remember, it's possible after tomorrow, there won't be a single thing left from the old STS leak, we will be starting fresh. No leads, no hints, nothing to expect. It's been a great ride until now, these great 8 months or so of leaks, tinfoil hats and crazy theories about updates. It's funny to think after tomorrow we'll know and be able to play with it all, like it had been an untouchable figment for so long, and now it will be in our hands.[/QUOTE] I dought tomorrow's uPdate will have everything in the previous leaks
[QUOTE=HyperTails;32751899]Went to bed with dreams of a magical update. Woke up with them shattered.[/QUOTE] I read that in Max's voice.

[QUOTE=ABW;32752116]I read that in Max's voice.[/QUOTE] I have that problem. If I know who someone's avatar is I always read it in their voice. :v:
I could see the chainsaw as allowing you to move faster when spun up, doing damage when spun up, and having a damaging thrusting move; as well as being usable on Medieval; at the cost of not being able to fire.
[QUOTE=Potato-Pugilist;32752036]I dought tomorrow's uPdate will have everything in the previous leaks[/QUOTE] well, when we compare the schema leak with the sts leak, we see that the custom stamp badge is in both, so we are still seeing some stuff trickle in from the sts leak. [QUOTE=Eriorguez;32752440]I could see the chainsaw as allowing you to move faster when spun up, doing damage when spun up, and having a damaging thrusting move; as well as being usable on Medieval; at the cost of not being able to fire.[/QUOTE] But you'd be so limited in range, plus the DPS of any minigun at point blank is ridiculous anyway, so there doesn't seem to be a niche a chainsaw could fill.
For fun, enharced movility, and outdamaging any minigun at close range.

[QUOTE=Jacen;32752269]I have that problem. If I know who someone's avatar is I always read it in their voice. :v:[/QUOTE] Then are you reading this post in the Heavy's voice? ...I would love that.

[QUOTE=Eriorguez;32752508]For fun, enharced movility, and outdamaging any minigun at close range.[/QUOTE] but it doesn't matter if it has a DPS of a billion at point blank, any Minigun still mows down any class in a second
im a retard
Read the quote.
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;32752567]but it doesn't matter if it has a DPS of a billion at point blank, any Minigun still mows down any class in a second[/QUOTE] True, but with this you can chase down others, and take on an spun up Brass Beast Heavy. Also, IT IS A FREAKING CHAINSAW. Best weapon ever since Doom.

[QUOTE=En Bengt;32752510]You know, for it to be even be remotely useful it has to deal a lot more damage than the minigun, which would make it extremely powerful in medieval mode, thus destroying a whole gamemode.[/QUOTE] Who said it has to be medieval-enabled?
I did, but, thinking again, it isn't really that needed, Heavy is already great at Medieval, no need to make it invincible.

I don't care if the Minigun is better. I want my Chainsaw.
Chainsaw +30% movement speed +100 health restored on kill
