its not like ammo really makes sense in tf2 anyways

[QUOTE=Xanthias;39556202]its not like ammo really makes sense in tf2 anyways[/QUOTE] i find it perfectly reasonable to create molecular-tearing flame particles out of a jar of a supposed crazed gunman's piss. but then i live in central park and befriend squirrels in preparation for the upcoming mole-person raids by the way, the moles are coming

Why not give yourself 2 crits/building? [editline]11th February 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=AbeX300;39556069]Here's a few possible buffs that it could get ([b]Note: It should be only one of them[/b]): #1: Increased accuracy. Having it be [b]perfectly[/b] accurate, however, is debatable. #2: Faster reload speed. 20% or 25% faster reload speed [sup](0.928s or 0.87s reload time)[/sup] would most likely do the job. #3: A larger clip size. Even just [b]one[/b] more bullet would be good enough. #4: Faster decloak time. 30% faster decloaking [sup](1.26s decloaking time)[/sup] seems reasonable. #5: Faster disguise speed. The most unlikely buff to be chosen, but if it was, it should let you disguise twice as fast [sup](1s disguise time)[/sup]. Again, one of the buffs will do.[/QUOTE] What if we made a thread buffing the least used items?

[QUOTE=mphayes97;39556329]Why not give yourself 2 crits/building?[/QUOTE] It'd still be useless without enemy Engineers, but in the scenario where there actually [b]are[/b] enemy Engineers, it's fine as of now; there is no need to buff that mechanic more. That's like saying the Sun-on-a-Stick should have +50% damage bonus on burning players; it's not going to fix the problem that it is dependent on enemies being set on fire.

[QUOTE=mphayes97;39556329]Why not give yourself 2 crits/building? [editline]11th February 2013[/editline] What if we made a thread buffing the least used items?[/QUOTE] I'd certainly see this legit. It should use the hurt/heal voting system for all items.

Major Update Speculation Thread v12: The Original Weapon Ideas Thread

[QUOTE=HerSilverHammer;39556487]Major Update Speculation Thread v12: The Original Weapon Ideas Thread[/QUOTE] There is a difference between buffing/nerfing weapons, and making completely new weapon ideas.

[QUOTE=HerSilverHammer;39556487]Major Update Speculation Thread v12: The Original Weapon Ideas Thread[/QUOTE] Okay guys, okay okay, guys, I have this idea NOONE has ever heard of. Okay, ready? Ready? Okay. Let's fix the red tape recorder.

Red tape recorder: All sapped buildings are instantly destroyed when the engineer dies. No damage to buildings. [i]They used to love the gunslinger, I showed them how to hate it[/i]

[QUOTE=LightFlock;39556504]Okay guys, okay okay, guys, I have this idea NOONE has ever heard of. Okay, ready? Ready? Okay. Let's fix the red tape recorder.[/QUOTE] Wasn't it fixed recently? (The first nerf didn't apply to sentries, which was fixed IIRC) EDIT: Well ok, never mind, it removes arrows from teleporters, fails to disable Dispensers, and destroys itself before the deconstruction finishes. And according to the wiki, the original nerf only applied to teleporters, and was not fixed, though the info on wiki can be doubtful at best.

Fuck, i think NECA will get jealous if i buy the Gaming Heads action figures.

[QUOTE=Pedomedic;39556716]Fuck, i think NECA will get jealous if i buy the Gaming Heads action figures.[/QUOTE] You mean the ones that aren't coming out because Valve pulled the plug on them because they had a working prototype for like an entire year and didn't actually start selling it and planned on selling it for like fifty dollars per figure?

All I want from NECA is a 1:1 scale Gunslinger. [sp]Then cut off my hand and wear it pretending I'm Radigan Conagher[/sp]

[QUOTE=TheDrunkenOne;39556895]All I want from NECA is a 1:1 scale Gunslinger. [sp]Then cut off my hand and wear it pretending I'm Radigan Conagher[/sp][/QUOTE] Do you think the Engineer cut off his hand before or after he built the Gunslinger?

[QUOTE=The Calzone;39556786]planned on selling it for like fifty dollars per figure?[/QUOTE] hopefully the additional hats and unlocks weren't the cause of them being pricy.

[QUOTE=The Calzone;39556911]Do you think the Engineer cut off his hand before or after he built the Gunslinger?[/QUOTE] At first, I'd assume it was obviously after, but then I considered the fact that it was due to an accident... So with that said, I'm going to assume the hand was cut off before the Gunslinger was made.

[QUOTE=The Calzone;39556911]Do you think the Engineer cut off his hand before or after he built the Gunslinger?[/QUOTE] Do you think its a robot glove?

Might be late to the Diamondback discussion, but maybe another buff for the weapon would be, you gain one crit for every Medic backstabbed? Dunno if that might be too good or not though.

[QUOTE=DrCactus;39556945]Might be late to the Diamondback discussion, but maybe another buff for the weapon would be, you gain one crit for every Medic backstabbed?

[QUOTE=AbeX300;39556977]Hell no. For one thing, that's another situational mechanic added to the weapon, but another, it makes the Medic's life even more miserable...[/QUOTE] Hey, it's better than [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1208596&p=39388363&viewfull=1#post39388363"]some[/URL].

One of my ideas for a Diamondback buff was 2 crits for each Building Sapped and one crit for each kill.

Well, it'd be less situational, because the team is more likely to have a Medic then an engie. And it doesn't really make a Medic's life even more miserable because you're already dead if they backstabbed you. Not to mention it's alot harder (normally) to backstab a medic then get a free crit from a lone teleporter. Medics should be top priority anyway for a spy.

Dumb idea, but what if the Diamondback got a crit on kill with it, as well as the sapped buildings thing.

The Diamondback Gives one guaranteed critical hit for each building destroyed with your sapper attached On Critical kill: Instantly reload -15% damage penalty No random critical hits Eeehhhh?

[QUOTE=The Calzone;39556911]Do you think the Engineer cut off his hand before or after he built the Gunslinger?[/QUOTE] He cut off his grandad's hand and tested it on him first.
