[QUOTE=iRunner;35374224]Do you really think that getting +25 hp by wearing a hat is okay?[/QUOTE] the bonus balances out the fact that the weapons don't work too well with eachother. Shortstop goes well with something like the Sandman or Wrap Assassin, with one of the Sodas in secondary; basically, something to do more damage at mid-long range. Milk goes well with the Scattergun, something that does tons of damage so that you can restore health as soon as possible. Scatter+Milk+Wrap works nicely. Fish goes with just about anything though. It's the same thing with the Croc-O-Style; you have to use the Bushwacka without Jarate, but you become immune to death by headshots.
Saxton Hale players that run away and hide in a spot so he doesn't lose more hp. (Like buildings) I'm getting tired of wasting time for people to be dumb enough to find Hale and get killed by him...some players like me wanna play VSH, y'know.
The concept of the Milkman is covering your weakness. However, that hurts your strenghts, and your weapons lack synergy. Balanced.
And the Milk is a better choice for people who suck at using the pistol. I'm not sure why, but I can never hit anybody with the darn thing, whilst everyone else can land every single bullet. I still use the pistol though, because I wanna be a good Scout like all those people with less than 10 hours as Medic.
[QUOTE=Lolkork;35374560]You probably try to use it at medium range while firing constantly, it's actually a very inaccurate weapon, so you can only use it at its full potential at short range.[/QUOTE] I might as well be using the Scattergun though, provided it's loaded, which is most of the time. As a scout, I usually hit and run if my Scattergun clip runs out, using the Sandman to stun them if they pursue me, provided I didn't kill them.
Each Pistol bullet is stronger than each Scatter pellet. I can't use the Pistol either, be it as Scout or as Engi, but I can see its potential and have taken several sentries down with it.
Just about every weekend a group of people I've managed to find myself associating with host TF2 playdates. They're bronies (as if being DevaintArt people wasn't "bad" enough), but that isn't really a problem for me. What is a problem is usually two of the people who help organize and always come around. They're big TF2 players, and they often dominate the scoreboard, though I don't know if that's due to skill or the fact that the people they're fighting (including me) aren't the best players around comparitively. Their playing style, I have to admit, does get to me. One of them usually goes Demoman with the Eyelander, Chargin Targe, and Loch-N-Load. THe other goes Pyro with either the Degreaser or Phogslator, and nearly always takes any chance he can get to puff-n-sting with the Axetinguisher or Postal Plummerer. Considering what reputation those setups have, along with the fact I'm skill-lacking to where I'm often falling to their melee-based attacks, are among the reasons I'm usually only there for a few of the meetings, and even then I'm usually there for only brief times. Though on the bright side: [IMG]http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m239/andrewnuva199/Annoyance.jpg[/IMG] (Ponies pixel-blurred for your viewing convience, names pixel-blurred to protect the identities) These are also the occasions where I love to insert some of my sprays into the masses where people seem to spray them the most. I think Matt Smith here sums up what alot of us would be thinking.

[QUOTE=Suttles;35375819]Do you really think someone is going to bitch over the ponies, and go stalk the people in the picture?[/QUOTE] Not even that, they'd be impossible to stalk because there's probably a couple thousand Rainbow Dashes, Fluttershys, and Derpy Hooves.
[QUOTE=Suttles;35375819]Do you really think someone is going to bitch over the ponies, and go stalk the people in the picture?[/QUOTE] Just not wanting to take chances, considering the flame wars that can sometime erupt over their mention. Though admitedly, those days of extreme fever are perhaps past, so I admit I may have gone overboard. But still, I thought it would be a bit more pleasing that people wouldn't have to get clear images of those sprays.
That sharp dresser I won was part of a troll raffle. Ticked, but not upset. I saw it coming, it was a very sarcastic title and it IS april 1st, I just wanted to believe.
My first post in the TF2 forum! :smile: I hate sniper syndrome, where if I am sniping and an enemy sniper comes on the scene, we can never just say "Let's ignore each others presence and instead spend our time killing lots of our respective enemies and helping our respective teams to a respective victory!". No, they always have to be "Aw holy shit what the fuck enemy sniper to hell with the heavy who I could shoot to avoid defeat, I gotta kill that guy way on the other side of the map who looks like me!" and they adopt a damn-the-torpedoes attitude and ignore the entire battle except for me. I sort of understand how I am a threat because I can reach out and touch them (no homo), but if both parties could just fuck off then it would be beneficial for both.
It's a normal day on pl_badwater. Things are finally looking up for us at BLU as I finally got my Ubercharge ready and the server's best Heavy just stocked up on ammo as well. One good push is all we need to win this. Oh wait, this Soldier is currently low on HP, lemme fix that, we need everyone for this push... ...oh this Demo as well... ...no, Scout, not you as well... ...okay, just oooone more... and then the guy you planned on ubering gets snipered or some unexpected counter push or crit awards you for trying to get your team together.
[QUOTE=Redsduck94;35373327][url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/1009744[/url] Argh!! its on1y beeing sold as a set so U MUST OVRPAY!!![/QUOTE] So, they're themed because that faggot added a line to their descriptions? What is this bullshit? Could i sell my soldier set for 170$ in promos by adding "Endorsed by tenacious d" to the description?
[QUOTE=Lolkork;35374241]1. Hype should build up even though you're not holding the Soda popper.[/QUOTE] This alone would balance or break the weapon, making it nearly useless for scouts who just run around . The tactic of using the soda popper compared to the fan is -no extra jump +minicrits when you need them. It's not that bad of a tradeoff but I wouldn't know because I only use the default and I rarely get killed by that piece of shit. Something that I want badly now is Phlogistinator: -same stats- +crits or minicrits extend to your other weapons.

I've ran into people like that also. They type like "can i hav a hat for teh scouut" and you tell them that you aren't selling anything but they keep asking and can get annoyingly persistent.

It kind of makes a bit of sense to off them when you see them so they can't pick off your team one by one or kill a medic. Then again, I hate snipers. I believe that unless you're so good at sniping that you can hold back BLU team all by yourself from capping a point, nobody should be playing sniper.

The axetinguisher is already annoying enough thanks to it's ability to instakill most classes and even fully overhealed light classes.[/QUOTE] So essentially by that logic you're saying the sniper rifle is overpowered because it can 1-hit all classes? The axetinguisher is annoying, yes, but not overpowered, because it has an (extremely) limited range, coupled with the Pyro's already underwhelming range (unless your using the flare gun) makes it a hit and run tactic, not something you should be trying to use to take out more than 2 enemies at a time, that will only get you killed.

[QUOTE=AlphaAGENT;35397818]So essentially by that logic you're saying the sniper rifle is overpowered because it can 1-hit all classes?[/QUOTE] I never called the weapon overpowered, only annoying.
[QUOTE=OffTheRoad;35400610]I never called the weapon overpowered, only annoying.[/QUOTE] All weapons are annoying with my soul exclusion of the medigun.
[QUOTE=AlphaAGENT;35397818]So essentially by that logic you're saying the sniper rifle is overpowered because it can 1-hit all classes? ][/QUOTE] Except, you know, the Sniper's game play is focused around the idea of getting one shot kills. Same with the Spy. Whereas, at least initially, the Pyro's job was ambushing, area denial, spy checking, and so on. He was never a one-shot kill class to begin with.

Tomislav's handle goes right through the viewmodel's hand, the shotgun isn't properly rigged, the fists clip through the Heavy's hands in more ways than one, and the hat is a smushed Fancy Fedora. Why is the set even in the game jeez
Allegedly, VALVe really liked the style of the Tomislav. Doesn't stop the whole thing being a rather poor effort compared to some of the real gems in the emporium though.
