[QUOTE=poptart TF2;49524691]Im going to disagree with you on that, Id say for every 1 good balance change there are 2 stupid ones[/QUOTE]
I can't think of any in the last year that were truly awful, outside of being really pointless.
People will say the Phlog, but the invincibility while taunting is almost the same as what it had before, it doesn't charge that much faster than before (though charging it with secondaries is annoying, but it was always able to do that), and people have only been slaughtered by it lately because suddenly everyone is using it, not just the Valve server potatoes.
edit: also, the Engineer changes were pretty great. Gunslinger has reached some sort of equilibrium, wrench Engie is more fun to play, and there's that sapper change which I haven't had a chance to really test out yet but might fix years of Engie getting better and better at countering Spies.

Then again, for every post you make you make four complaining about something.

how do you have these opinions when you make it seem you haven't played engineer in ages
[QUOTE=Hell-met;49524880]how do you have these opinions when you make it seem you haven't played engineer in ages[/QUOTE]
I've played Engie since the big changes in the summer, but I haven't played much since November.
edit: Engie, I mean. I've been playing other classes because I played enough Engie for my team as Engie to start overtaking my time as Medic. The balance must be preserved.
[QUOTE=Hell-met;49524323]the irony is, it got right back in the game a couple months later and counting[/QUOTE]
Yeah I always found it funny to see that picture when I see Crazy Legs all the time.
rest in peace our sweet update bot

I don't have any problem with wickedplayer, but I don't think sweet is the right word.
At least now someone else can post updates without him throwing a fit.

Ummm yeah, theres no point in discussing balanced weapons and game mechanics because nothing needs to be done to them. Seriously theres a reason the "what annoys you in tf2 thread", gets significantly more traffic than the what you love in tf2 thread.
Also if I remember correctly you made quite a few posts complaining about the red tape recorder.
[QUOTE=Cosmic feel;49524771]yeah, cisteam scum stop triggering me[/QUOTE]
You ignorance is triggering me! Check you privilege.
I mean, wickedplayer had the stuff in the "Rumor has it" section of his posts so we're gonna miss that

actually i'm happy he's gone because it pissed me off it was called rumor has it even though none of it was rumors, but rather confirmed facts
now that he's gone i made possibly the second most worthless program, the tf2 update checker
checks if there has been a tf2 update and notifies you
woo
what the fuck is a wickedplayer and why do any of us give a rat's ass

He's usually been the first person to post about the upcoming updates for the past uhh, four years? Probably even longer.
Did he leave or something?

well i wouldnt know, I'd rather be playing the game rather than reading about it on an online forum
[QUOTE=ikes;49526781]well i wouldnt know, I'd rather be playing the game rather than reading about it on an online forum[/QUOTE]
Or posting about it?
He was permabanned for making a rather stupid(I might be underselling this) [URL="https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1501338&p=49518971&viewfull=1#post49518971"]post[/URL] in Sensationalist Headlines.
However, it's neither here nor there really.
Wicked said, in reference of the news, it was the child fault and postal got so offended to give him 6 bans in a row
[QUOTE=ElderLolz;49521711]Guys, stop mocking Scout
He's transteam.[/QUOTE]
Huh, that places Tough Break as definitely post-TF Comics. (Scout, you seriously need a little more selling sense)
I guess that means the Admin didn't kick it after all, and the Gravel Wars were restarted. (I was rather fond of the "Admin is turned into GLaDOS" theory myself.)

I really wouldn't look too deep into what are basically just easter eggs.

Hey now, I want to believe someone in Valve still cares about the lore and continuity and art direction.
Even if that someone is the potted plant.

Never seen anyone get banned that hard.
Hey look, I found the [URL="twitter.com/TF2notification"]new Wickedplayer![/URL]
Honestly, something like that only notifies about patches or item schema changes when they're already publicly released.
We need a new hero that has access to the HLDS mailing list so they can give a heads up about incoming updates before they happen.

But there are so many people that get the email, don't worry about that.
Honestly we just gotta make sure someone always posts a thread when a new update hits. I have no problem doing it (and I have a few times in the past) but I work third shift and the TF2 team usually ships updates right around the time I get up, but sometimes it's an hour or two before I get up.
While the post was stupid, he had a role and if they ain't reverting it the role needs to be taken by someone else.
