Reflecting a crocket back and hitting the soldier, his medic, and the two other schmucks walking by is one of the greatest feelings.

this steam overlay looks like a WebTV gui from 1998 now...

That's only when you boot with a controller in, the kb+m one is the same.

edit: xander, killing a guy who is touching the cart, or even just touching the cart while someone is pushing it, also counts as defending.

I don't think there's any point in doing the Halloween bonus contracts since they only need 1 star to unlock, you just need 1 or 2 extra stars to unlock multiple paths at once.

Do those stars count towards your other contracts?

I agree that the ambassador change was a bit much (the range should be lengthened I'm) but the Dr was a loving cancer and I'm glad it's been nerfed to death.

Yeah, I've noticed that unfreeze seems irregular too. Sometimes I think it has to do with when you hit a movement key, like how jeopardy locks you out of answering for a sec if you try to buzz in too early.

Correct. That said, if your shotgun is at a range where falloff is a factor, you're probably not going to hit many pellets

That would be the Eyelander and the Chargin' Targe, or the Tide Turner.

Just buy a key, sell it to scrap.tf for metal, and then use their auto-buy functionality to get all the weapons you don't currently own.

He means he saw the claidheamh-mòr. He probably got confused by the load of other demo weapons, such as the cutlass I forget the name of or the handgrenade I forget the name of.

Go to wiki.teamfortress.com and get reacquainted with everything. Even the weapons you remember are probably hilariously different now.

Don't forget, most community servers were loving terrible and you had to search through a dozen with forced ads and awful paid bonuses before you could find one decent one, and then everyone on the 'decent' server would probably have furry porn sprays.

It feels like I'm dying kind of cheaply to pyros at the moment (I'm back after a long break which is why I'm noticing the change now).

I understand that the class needed some buffing but I'm not sure it's been done correctly. Afterburn should punish you if you don't know where health packs are or have a med near you. Currently I just die no matter what I do unless I'm literally being pocketed which is probably 1/20 games.

The idea "I understand x needed to change, but I'm not sure it has been done correctly" is a perfect summary of the last 3 or 4 years of tf2.

Yeah, phlog pyro is also locked in a taunt and the last bit of that is without the invuln. Stickies, a spun up heavy in his face, a backburner pyro right behind him will all keep it from being an issue.

As someone whose main pyro loadout is backburner, I almost always kill them. Not saying it's a guarantee, but if you start early you're at least going to knock them down very very very low.

Super soaker primary, scuba tank secondary. Primary shoots water that makes enemies wet and extinguishes teammates. Secondary lets you stay underwater longer without drowning and move easier underwater. Maybe switch those for balance. Full pyroshark.

I really love backburner pyro, it was my first love in this game close to 8 years ago. People get so loving salty when you get in their face and you light them, then immediately reflect their rocket/pills/flare back into them with the backburner.

So loving salty.

I still want to see a 5cp version of doublecross. Plop the point from harvest into the middle of the bridge, make the flag room point 2/4 and add another point, maybe downhill and behind the fence on either side of the bridge that you get to from the yard between spawn and the flag.

Okay, I know, never buy keys, but I just bought one of each of the halloween keys and unboxed the defragmenting hard hat, an okay strange part, a team spirit paint, and a strange warpaint (the sugar skulls one). I think that might end up more than covering the cost of the keys?

Got 1 Vermin case. Sold it (for some reason I wasn't required to confirm the sale, even though I'm using the authenticator?). Got another 2 - neither tradeable nor marketable.

No indication they're going to become useful in the future. Time to delete, I guess. Wonder what the difference is all about.

The non tradable ones are bonuses with the Halloween gifts (which are also untradable) whereas ones that randomly drop are tradable.

My usual experience with that map is one team completely locks down the lift, and only one or two players bother with the intel. If those people are on the team that cares about the lift, the rounds are quick and it's all good. If they're not, it drags on forever.
