Team Fortress 2 - Heavy Update, New Maps, New Mode are all live now!

Thanks to Spudly, Willy, Magnetro, and everyone else who helped achievement farm last night.

Direct Hit blows, but the Equalizer is lovely.

I take it you don’t know how to play vanilla Scout or what? Vanilla Scout is fucking ownage.

I did Demo milestone #2 and got no Eyelander, that blows.

Also, the Direct Hit is fucking amazing.

This is my suggestion for what to do with the Sandman: No matter how far you hit someone with a ball, it doesn’t stun them. Using it sacrifices your double jump and 124 of your hit points. It does 5 damage when you hit someone with it. Who is with me?

Fuck the Sandman.

Fuck the Scout in general.

I think the valve servers were broke last night, I kept getting the errors about not being able to connect to steam and get my loadout, so I think we may get the items once all that is sorted out. Like next time you log in, it’ll be a ton of unlocks waiting for you.

Crafting is crazy, the only thing remotely worth crafting right now is Hats, unless they do randomized stats on regular weapons, and to get a random hat is like 90 weapons, and a class specific hat is 112. Haha. I’m saving for that 112.

You can also change 2 hats into a third random hat

yeah I own with vanilla scout, and I used to own even more with the original FaN

my rage is because instead of sidegreades these updates are just plain motherfucking downgrades

and playing vanilla scout as the only viable way of playing is lame compared to all the other options the other classes has

So what’s the general consensus on the better stickybomb launcher?

GG’s to all last night…the random drop rate was insane.

After what I’ve read…it looks like GOOD soldiers like/love Direct Hit. I agree with them. I usually try to aim directly at the target.

Equalizer is apparently the best thing to happen to soldier. After taking enough damage…you can outrun a scout and kill a heavy with one hit. Oh, and did anyone confirm that soldier using and Equalizer can NOT be healed? I tried it last night, and I couldn’t heal a soldier using that weapon.

Demo players are not liking the Scottish Resistance for some reason.

I’m going to start using Spy now…love C&D.

As for me…I got the weapons I wanted.

Confirmed.

Makes sense though. If you have it out, it’s better with less health.

I was having difficulties stick bomb jumping with the new Demo weapon.

imo.

So, for a bit of fun, apparently theres a bug where spy can disguise as engy (or not even disguise, heard different stories) and open the console, and type “build 0” and build a dispensor. Haha, good times.

Currently I can’t get to my backpack at all. It just says “Cannot Connect to Steam - Unable to Access Loadout”

I’ve been playing some Arena this morning and the Targe+Eyelander is INSANELY FUN. Seriously. It’s incredibly fun to just be spamming grenades, then dash cross-level and take off somebody’s head.

I was actually exchanging with some medic, and noted an engy off in the distance w/o a sentry. I ended up backing off from the medic, dashed cross-level and chopped down the engy. Was awesome.

“Checkmate, Stalingrad!” LOL

“You’re like the cyclops of Greek myth, except you’re Scottish and I HATE YOU”

“Scotland is not a real country, you are an Englishman with a dress!”

“Ich bien I JUST KICKED YOUR ASS”

This is too good.

“It’s campers like you that give war a bad name!”

also, is the SRK server still going???

Yes it is…we usually meet up on Sundays.

there gonna be another srk game tonight?

last night was rather awesome

hopefully with more insane drop rates

I want in this time. got legit the 1st milestone last night but I want the rest!

you know, I’ve had this game since it’s release on PC. I still haven’t played it.
