Some of my ideas: The Buck Wrangler: Lever Action Rifle Replaces the Shotgun Description: This good ol’ toy from your Pa made you realize that being an Engineer doesn’t require always using a darn shotgun for keeping away them darn pests. He suggested this! The Buck Wrangler Lever Action Rifle! Your Pa constructed this baby to do more damage to enemies farther away. It fires faster than your Shotty, and even does extra damage if shot in the head when the enemy is furthest away. Unfortunately, when your enemies get close, the Wrangler gets less effective. The bullets become weaker as they get closer, so you’d best have a stronger-close range weapon on you, or a good teammate on your six. Pros: *20% faster firing rate *Farther away an enemy is, the more damage it does *Mini-Crits on a headshot when enemy is maximum distance away. Cons: *Closer the enemy is, the less damage it does *No spread The B-Grapple Bionic Arm Replaces the Pistol Description: Have you ever been in one helluva pickle while trying to set up an offensive base in enemy lines? Well this B-Grapple solves the problem. The Engineer thought building in enemy territory was too darn difficult. But after he designed a fix to that problem, he risked life and limb (literally) to create his new arm. With his new arm, he can now grab any type of metal from long distances. See a shotgun in a pile of stickies? No problem. Just lock on, grapple on to the shotgun, and pull it back to you. Pros: *Grab metal/ammo from afar. *You gain 25 extra metal for each dropped weapon you take, if your metal amount is already full. Cons: *Replaces Pistol The H.H.357.Eng. Revolver Replaces the Pistol Description: You Pa always told you that some weapons are meant to be good with others. After hearing this, the Engineer went back to good ol’ Texas to create a fine weapon that would go well with his other weapons. After few tests, he came up with all unsatisfactory weapons. Finally, he found the one. He took an old rusty revolver from his Uncle and turned it into a killing machine…if put to good use. That weapon is the H.H.357.Eng. Revolver. With this revolver, the more enemies he kills with his other weapons would make his revolver more powerful. Unfortunately, it has a much smaller clip than the regular pistol, and the Engineer still has not found the solution to recoil. Pros: *The more kills you get (with any weapon), the more damage it will do *Gets faster and stronger *When Redneck Rage meter is full, you can pull out a second H.H.357.Eng. for 12 seconds or until your clips run out. No recoil either. Cons: *Starts out weak and slow to fire *Large recoil *70%-40 % slower firing rate (depending on how many kills you have) * 50% smaller clip *After using Redneck Rage, your revolvers become 50% weaker. The Pooper Wrench Wrench Replacement Description: Your Grandpa had a special wrench that no other engineer ever had. It has been passed down to your Pa, and then passed down to you. Your Grandpa had a strange name for it. You never knew why it was given it’s specific name, but WHO CARES? It was called the Pooper. With this specially designed wrench, you have the ability to upgrade your buildings faster. Unfortunately, it takes up more metal. But nonetheless, it also has a longer reach and you can even gain more metal every time you hit an enemy with it. Sounds fun doesn’t it? Well it is, and it’s specially designed for YOU! You can even drop metal for a friend if you have any to spare! You’ll be the kindest engineer ‘round. Pros: *Faster upgrading (100 metal to upgrade) *30% Longer reach *Gain 10 metal every time you do damage to an enemy (max 400 metal, the rest falls on the ground for anyone) *Ability to drop metal/ammo for a friend (max 100) *If next to any of your buildings, you get mini-crits. (all your buildings at once, full crits) Cons: *No random crits *Uses more metal to create a building *Slower firing rate *Takes 10 metal to remove a sapper *Cannot speed up building time
These would be nice but i'd like to see a sentry replacement of some description.

Cons: *Replaces Pistol [/quote] That might actually work, but the 25 extra metal is a bit much. "Bionic arm" is completely out of the art style, rather a gravity gun or grapple hook of some sort. [QUOTE=redBadger;19103293] The H.H.357.Eng. Revolver Replaces the Pistol [/quote] Basically a ranged version of Eyelander combined with buff banner? That wouldn't fit and reusing ideas is a bad thing. [QUOTE=redBadger;19103293] The Pooper Wrench Wrench Replacement Pros: *Faster upgrading (100 metal to upgrade) *30% Longer reach *Gain 10 metal every time you do damage to an enemy (max 400 metal, the rest falls on the ground for anyone) *Ability to drop metal/ammo for a friend (max 100) *If next to any of your buildings, you get mini-crits.

My version of this weapon would be faster upgrading, more expenisve building -wrench with possibly ability to give metal and as a con the metal cost to remove sapper. That way the engy could supply teammates with ammunition but would require protection for his buildings. I'm not sure if it's good that to use metal donate ability the player also has to use the building extra cost and upgrade speed. That might work, but it seems very cluttered overall.

It's probably old news, but the sentry model files all end in "_light", so we can probably assume there's a "Heavy" sentry.
How about a R/C Sentry, but you have to be out of the safety zone, build a sentry lv 3, dispenser lv 3, and wheels.
[QUOTE=yuki;19109751]It's probably old news, but the sentry model files all end in "_light", so we can probably assume there's a "Heavy" sentry.[/QUOTE] Wrong! There's actually 'Dark' Sentries. They're camoflauged (translucent), deal slightly less damage. They also rap and shout swears instead of beeping.
Put dispenser here!

[QUOTE=Markntosh;19113967]That doesn't mean it's guaranteed in the final update.[/QUOTE] Of course not, this was just to prove the source, which you doubted here.

[editline]bla[/editline] It just occurred to me, you are taking this beta wrong. It is not a beta for the class updates, it is a beta, containing some specific players(most if not all competitive) to improve the utility of the little used classes of Comp play. The GRU are in there too, which have been proven before. Reread the steam thread I linked. The whole OP. And note that it's from after the spy update.
Hi, I'm that Pyro that sticks around with Engies and protects their shit from Spies, Soldiers, Demomen, Ubers, and the like.

[QUOTE=CrazyBaconLegs;19118018]:love: Pyros like this are great company. Demomen that sticky up valuable sentry nests to instakill spies are also a rare and valuable commodity.[/QUOTE] I believe that when guarded by a decent Pyro that can airblast worth a damn, a Sentry's effectiveness is increased 10 fold. Actually just today, an Engie built a nest outside of the other team's base. Normally it would be mince meat. With me guarding it it was virtually unstoppable. (This was against a team of almost only Soldiers and Demomen.)
If he doesn't get a guitar that will give your sentry mini-crits I'ma be dissapointed.
