Only thing worse than snipers who can continuously hit headshot after headshot are snipers with 400+ ping who can continuously hit headshot after headshot, true story

reminder for the new thread that a sniper using the piss rifle is infinitely more useful to it's team than one using the stock rifle, and is also way more fun to play on top of that

I've tried forcing myself to play sniper to improve my aim, but I generally just get bored and start going for jarate/bushwacka kills (2fort is pretty good for this, nobody expects snipers to actually leave the battlements and chase them).

Do not feel shame, for this is the path of a great man. I swear I got 8 kills in a row on a Payload cart once with that combo, and the Jarate wore off the last target right as I reached him - And my Bushwhacka randomly crit him instead for the kill. It was hilarious. Of course that server wasn't running replays. They never are.

Its not stickies, its grenades, try hitting a scout moving at a million miles an hour with it. If I'm playing demoman its actually better to be a sticky-spamming dickhead against the BFB since its the same strategy of peppering the ground with stickies to restrict movement and force him to walk over them, if you're playing demoknight you have to have absolutely rock-solid aim with your grenades and charging is pretty ineffectual since the scout is moving so fast he can often just outrun you. a cock shaped fruit posted:The babyface blaster fits snugly in my own personal category of 'This weapon is a joke to not be taken seriously - UNTIL IT EXISTS IN THE HANDS OF A COMPETENT PLAYER.' It was that back when it had a absurd list of downsides and basically forced you to never jump if you wanted to run laps around everyone else, now though it doesn't have anything dreadfully terrible about it, if you know how to use a scattergun you will do perfectly fine and then realize that moving at 173% speed can be monstrously powerful. khwarezm fucked around with this message at 23:57 on Oct 26, 2014 |

ninjewtsu posted:Personally I would like to take this moment to complain about snipers period. Suddenly dropping dead to a hitscan gun from a dude on the other side of the map is not fun. Seeing dudes on my team play sniper and 90% of the time be absolutely useless is not fun. Sitting around as sniper trying to shoot heads is dumb and feels dumb. Taunt killing oblivious snipers is a lot of fun though.

Although I did once defend a payload point for 10 minutes because the other team didn't work out you could uber classes other than demos.

Man, I have been playing BFB scout for weeks. I absolutely love it. I've paired it with the Guillotine and the Sandman for maximum GIMMICK POWER. Sure, any rocket or demopill that touches me is an instant kill, but that's just the price you pay for moving around at unreasonable speeds and possessing a 7/9 class instakill combo. I'm getting really good at landing the combo, too. I like it so much that I went out and got killstreak kits for all three weapons.

BFB/pistol/ham is how I roll my scout, I love spamming bullets as I rocket around the map. Just hoover up all the ammo crates and piss everyone off.

When I'm rolling BFB i like to use the wrap assassin rather than the sandman, I don't feel obligated to use the guillotine as well, but I still get bleed damage to help me boost my speed. Plus I find it way easier to hit with the balls than the cleaver for some reason so at least I'm likely to get some damage in when I'm flying around at stupid speed. Then I can use the wingman to get some extra height out of my limited jumping, or the pocket pistol to roll with 140 health. Alternatively, BFB, guillotine, fish. use the guillotine to get up speed, slap everyone with a fish and run away. Be an annoying little poo poo.

A knife that does no damage on a backstab but lifts the target 1 hu and inflicts the knockback of a backstab. That's how you do it.
