Stuff that annoys you in TF2: Constructor doesn't make this thread Edition - Games

[QUOTE=L_Dawg;35790972]That damn thing always seems to crit whenever it's used against you. And when you're using it, it never does when you REALLY need it.[/QUOTE] You tell me. Dying from 3 melee crits in a row while having 60 to 80% über can make anyone mad, especially when every single time it's the first hit that lands on you.

Degreaser + Flaregun + Axtinguisher is truly the most piss-poor loadout I have seen on a Pyro

[QUOTE=Hilarious Pill;35793577]Degreaser + Flaregun + Axtinguisher is truly the most piss-poor loadout I have seen on a Pyro[/QUOTE] I find it humorous when they try to defend it as well, saying things like "It's instantly countered by not being in the Pyro's flamethrower range." That's like saying never be in the view of a Sniper. Or don't run into a stickybomb trap. Or possibly the ever-so-famous: Don't bump into anyone while cloaked as a Spy. If it was as simple as that, I would never die. It's bound to happen eventually, but when it does, you're pretty much fucked with little chance of fighting back.

[QUOTE=GastricTank;35794186]It's bound to happen eventually, but when it does, you're pretty much fucked with little chance of fighting back.[/QUOTE] Unless the horrible melee hit detection goes against these kind of pyros. I was the lucky one not to get instantly killed by that as a Medic. [sp]And then the Pyro felt the same way as his victims of this cheap ass combo. INSTANT KILL RIGHT FROM MY UBERSAW[/sp]

I've never understood the flaregun-crit rage, a regular shotgun blast at the typical flareshot range does more or less the same damage with five extra shots. Granted the flare has a sizable hitbox but I personally believe it's a sidegrade to the shotter. As for the Axetinguisher, meh it's unbalanced as all hell but I normally have little issue with pyros, even when lit. Maybe give the it like, -5% speed when wielded or something. I've been using Detonator/Backscratcher roamer pyro, of late, living healthpack to healthpack. It's fun but we really need a jump-height buff, at least to the Harvest roofs, preferably to the second level of Badlands last (though that might be a bit much, to be honest).

But I can't jump over to the bridge's roof on 2fort. I know it's possible, but it's pretty tough to time it perfectly. Like you said, to the Harvest roof would be lovely too. The detonator really needs a buff. The explosion is too small to be useful, and the jump sucks. Even if they boost it just a smidgen, it would make it that much more viable.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;35794471]The TF2 beta Detonator was so much better.[/QUOTE] I never played it, but saw videos, the height/range was waaayy better, but didn't one have to detonate it in the .0005 seconds before it hit the ground? Sounds like a pain in the ace.

My friend recently started playing, and he's using the Swedish version of the game. This is annoying the living fuck out of me, because even though I also know Swedish, I have not the slightest fucking clue all the achievements, characters, and weapons are called in the Swedish version. He also frequently asks why some classes can do certain things and what weapons they're using, and is also trying to get the achievements for all the classes. This is confusing as FUCK and I'm not very good at helping him when he doesn't understand what I'm talking about and I can't translate everything back into the same weird fucking translations the Swedish version uses. Yet, he fucking refuses to use the English version instead so that I and everyone else in the game could have an easier time talking about the things in the game with him.

It's bound to happen eventually, but when it does, you're pretty much fucked with little chance of fighting back.[/QUOTE] Not sure how it works with DR, but with IW it's actually quite easy. Just make sure you don't take the main route, there's usually plenty of ammo packs along the sideways, and you're guaranteed not to bump into anyone. When you run around a corner and there's a pyro or you run out of cloak because engie stole your ammo pack, then yes, you're pretty much fucked and it's not your fault. Shit simply happens. Yeah, and a good counter to Deagreaser + Flare is pyro with shotty. It's the only force in the universe that is capable of making them switch their secondary.

Even if you bump into someone cloaked it's still easy to escaped since you're surprise! cloaked! don't take a predictable route, pretend to go left than turn right and boom escape.

Late, but still > Call for medic > Never get one Also, i always forget to use the compression blast when i need it

Also, The gas jockey set would be so much more fun if it was just Powerjack and the Attendant.

[QUOTE=Hilarious Pill;35793577]Degreaser + Flaregun + Axtinguisher is truly the most piss-poor loadout I have seen on a Pyro[/QUOTE] It's so easily countered by playing pyro with a shotgun and the stock flamethrower or backburner.

[QUOTE=L_Dawg;35795789]It's so easily countered by playing pyro with a shotgun and the stock flamethrower or backburner.[/QUOTE] It's not, Axtinguisher does work on Pyros

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;35795584]Also, The gas jockey set would be so much more fun if it was just Powerjack and the Attendant.[/QUOTE] The Degreaser is perfeclty fine, it only got a sorta of bad reputation from the Degreaxtinguisher combo.

[QUOTE=J-RcZ;35795815]It's not, Axtinguisher does work on Pyros[/QUOTE] Wait, is the tiny amount of time when the pyro is on fire still enough to pull out the axtinguisher and swing?

[QUOTE=L_Dawg;35796056]Wait, is the tiny amount of time when the pyro is on fire still enough to pull out the axtinguisher and swing?[/QUOTE] I once got a flaregun crit on a Pyro because of the fast weapon switch. I also crtikilled a Pyro once with the Axtinguisher. That was because of another Pyro W+M1'ing the Pyro I killed.

[QUOTE=L_Dawg;35796056]Wait, is the tiny amount of time when the pyro is on fire still enough to pull out the axtinguisher and swing?[/QUOTE] Yep, I killed plenty of Pyros that way. Fuck, I used to be a really big noob

Being puff-and-stinged as a Pyro has got to be one of the most humiliating ways of dying ever.
