[QUOTE=Markntosh;36538718]I swear to god, I die almost instantly now. I'm not sure I like the +10% base damage. I always did fine as a pyro without it.[/QUOTE] I've been backstabbing left and right. Everyone wants to try their new weapons, so they're easily distracted and or not doing their job. Not to mention how much of your screen is taken up by the rainblower and it's particle effect.
[QUOTE=Markntosh;36538718]I swear to god, I die almost instantly now. I'm not sure I like the +10% base damage. I always did fine as a pyro without it.[/QUOTE] Well, it used to deal that damage anyway, and now at least you have higher DPS than the fucking Syringe Gun.
[QUOTE=Markntosh;36538718]I swear to god, I die almost instantly now. I'm not sure I like the +10% base damage. I always did fine as a pyro without it.[/QUOTE] I think Valve waited too long to fix their mistake of nerfing the flamethrower in the first place. Now everyone that started playing after April 2010 can't deal with the veteran Pyros that have been playing since 2007 even more. All I can say is, get better and don't get in ambush range of Pyros. And I don't mean that in an offensive way, you'll just have to get used to it. Because I don't think Valve is going to nerf it AGAIN after 2 years of it being crap. Weapons like Bushwacka and Southern Hospitality are death wishes now though. Their weaknesses need to be lessened because a Pyro can barely poof someone using those and do massive damage now.

*Cuts wrist* I JUST WANT TO TRADE.
[QUOTE=PX1K;36538914]*Cuts wrist* I JUST WANT TO TRADE.[/QUOTE] I managed to get the trade working. Sort of. We both have out backpacks available, but only HE can put up items to offer. We're both raging.
It was a real pain for me. I was looking for a bunch of normal weapons so I could craft all the new stuff for me and a friend. I didnt even argue when the guy went "LOL TWO SCRAP FOR EACH WEAPON" when we finally got it working after fifty trades. I already had an overabundance of metal anyway.
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;36527055]:suicide: Valve just nerfed Soldier,[B] hard. [/B][/QUOTE] Thanks for the laugh dude, splitting the equalizer is in no way is a "[B]hard[/B]" nerf, just a slight one really. Any soldier worth it's salt wouldn't deliberately try to slap someone in melee range with low HP unless it's really a last resort. The speed is what made it really good, so you can escape easier to a health kit and regain HP.
Here's hoping the robot chicken promo is a craft hat
I wish they did a limited edition Genuine hat then after the deadline make it a regular drop hat.
[QUOTE=DelBoy;36536918]At first I thought this was a new hat. Then I realized otherwise. [img]http://i45.tinypic.com/2zhe0dx.jpg[/img] I've heard of hats clipping but this is definitely new to me.[/QUOTE] Heh, his name translates to Bug.
[QUOTE=SFC3;36539345]I wish they did a limited edition Genuine hat then after the deadline make it a regular drop hat.[/QUOTE] I bet they would make it a non-droppable, non-tradeable, genuine hat.
I bought Svdl's sniper rifle earlier, and when I tried it out I found out something incredibly depressing. It doesn't actually decapitate on headshot. /wrist
Guys. I need to make my Rainblower related to Fassad from Mother 3. Have no clue what to name/describe it. Any pointers?
for some reason im popping headshots way better with this new sniper rifle than all other sniper rifles. i understand there's no upscoping in FOCUS MODE but even in normal mode there feels like a significant difference. or maybe i'm crazy.
[QUOTE=Cajun;36539643]Guys. I need to make my Rainblower related to Fassad from Mother 3. Have no clue what to name/describe it. Any pointers?[/QUOTE] You could have it named after his Japanese name too: Yokuba, or even Locria as his formal [sp]Magypsy[/sp] name. You could have named it after his affinity for bananas if the banana peels had more significance in the update beyond the ARG :v:

I really like Doomsday. In fact, I like it so much I made a video of me playing it. Playing it badly, yes, but playing it nonetheless. [video=youtube;A66eYCIvd7E]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A66eYCIvd7E[/video]
Doomsday is now on my favorites list. I like it quite a bit.
got the adult swim code, registered it, not showing up in my backpack :(

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;36540223]got the adult swim code, registered it, not showing up in my backpack :([/QUOTE] It isn't showing up in mine either. Considering how messed up things are right now, you'll probably have to give it a few hours.
[QUOTE=MrCasual;36538898]Now everyone that started playing after April 2010 can't deal with the veteran Pyros that have been playing since 2007 even more.[/QUOTE] I got the game for Christmas 2007, just after release. I am a veteran Pyro. [quote]All I can say is, get better and don't get in ambush range of Pyros. And I don't mean that in an offensive way, you'll just have to get used to it. Because I don't think Valve is going to nerf it AGAIN after 2 years of it being crap.[/quote] I honestly don't think it was crap. I admit, less damage output meant it would be smarter and deadlier to weapon heckle and actually use the shotgun and flaregun, but that's not at all a bad thing. It means the player has to be familiar with the class and how to correctly use its weapons. In my opinion, adding +10% base damage just makes the pyro less strategic use of weapons and ambushes and more W+M1. In my time as pyro, light, puff, then Axtinguisher or shotgun/flare gun made for a very effective method of attack, while leaving enough room for the enemy to escape or fight back if they have the skill to survive. It was a workable system. Feel free to disagree with me, I'm rather enjoying this debate since it's still relatively friendly, I just have a different viewpoint. I'm not saying the new pyro is crap and Valve is a piece of shit, I just don't think there was anything wrong with the old system.
Wait so degreaser's damage has been nerfed basically? Its still the same to me.
[QUOTE=7331;36540390]Wait so degreaser's damage has been nerfed basically? Its still the same to me.[/QUOTE] It was nerfed by 10%, but then all flamethrowers were buffed by 10%, so it balances out to be the same.
Eh no problem for me I can still take out dumb pyro's like before only problem is the afterburn nerf needs to be removed.
so all in all Pyro just got a buff.
so I got a Hazmat for a key and a ref. [thumb]http://s14.postimage.org/jv9st9eht/hazz.png[/thumb] and it clips with everything :(
