Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
Valve, I am dissapointed with you this time. Yes you gave us weapons, and yes you gave up many payload maps, but you know what? No one plays tf2 for those things. WHERE ARE THE HATS VALVE. Tell me, where are the hats!

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
Instant setup sentries are decent ninjas, but not very good.
Instant setup machine gun nests are aawwwwright. Though not as good as the levelable ones.
And.. Yeah.. Where ARE the hats, Valve?

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
Very good assessment. I concur with all of the points listed. Wrangler + Mini-Sentry is brilliant for offensive Engies, good support fire from range and cheap. Set up a dispenser and a Mini-sentry. You won't be disappointed.
Question is, does hiding in the bubble allow you to avoid being sniped? We must test this, FOR SCIENCE.
Good God. Valve, what kind of hatless horror have you unleashed upon the world?

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
All of which is beside the point.
If the the Gunslinger sentry gun eats some enemy health before it dies, then it has done it's job.
They're basically the zerglings of sentry guns. They're spammable and expendable. And Engies can stay mobile and do a lot harassment without staying invested in a nest or spending a lot of time upgrading sentries at spawn. (But since he has metal to spare, he can still upgrade *your* sentry.)
Comboing it with Wrangler isn't even the worst choice. It can eat about 40 health at long range in about a second. And do it accurately.
My big complaint with the Gunslinger+Wrangler is that it really reams the Pyro. A few seconds under this combo is enough to kill him.Last edited by LurkerInPlayground; 2010-07-09 at 02:46 AM.

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
I'd like to add that, while many people are focusing on the sentries, and rightly so, I love moving dispensers and teleporters. They never were terribly expensive, but I really like being able to move them around so easily. Stick the exit close up, move it around a little, fall back if you must... I enjoy playing support, and it's fun to be able to keep players coming and ready for combat. Sapping a teleporter gets more difficult when the only one that isn't moving is the one beside spawn.

Can you pick up a building that's being sapped?
I write a gaming blog. It also hosts my gaming downloads:
Fatescape - FATE-based D&D emulator, for when you want D&D flavour but not D&D complexity.
Exalted Mass Combat Rules - Because the ones in the core book suck.

Yes, and it removes the sapper as well.

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
I am SO glad I'm going away this weekend...TF2 is nothing but a headache for me at the moment.
The Wrangler and moving sentries may well be balanced, but not when each team has 3+ engies moving together.
Also, the fact that the Wrangler has no damage fall-off, can out-snipe a sniper, out-damage a Heavy, out Tank a Heavy/Medic combo, out-rocket a Soldier, AND be healed and reloaded is WAY to powerful.Last edited by Djinn_in_Tonic; 2010-07-09 at 11:01 AM.

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
I think that's really the part that matters. Every bit of what you said at the bottom is true, but not a huge deal if we were playing normal games. You have one engineer doing this? Two-four people on the other team will take him out. Two engineers? They're going to have to work together, and play smarter. And on any given team, you typically only have one or two. When we have 3+ all running around with sentries and such, like this update, Engineers are a force to reckon. I'm hoping that, with the post-update fall off of Engineers, things won't be such a pain. (The Wrangler is fun, but I already wasted a number of rockets as Soldier against one of those. I don't want to continue to face multiples.)

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
Well, I like all the Engie chaos. I doubt I'm going to get another opportunity to run around Robo-Rengie punching Mini-Sentries and feeling this badass.
What I find absolutely strangest though is the appearance of a Misc 2 slot. What the heck do you do with it?
Oh, and why does the Gunslinger have absolutely no achievements linked to it?

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
I finally managed to break myself away from Just Cause 2 to try out the VS Survival mutation for L4D2 last night and I must say it's quite a blast. It's probably my favorite mutation so far. I'll have to see about getting a mutation selector on the server.

Fun fact: The only Spy achievement I need is Sap Auter for destroying 1000 buildings.
Spy is INCREDIBLE right now.SpoilerOn behalf of YoSaffBridge, a collected gent who also hails from the UK, I would like to apologize for the time (times?) he told your lovely children that they were possessed by El Diablo. He has his own issues to work out, and occasionally suffers from the honest delusion that small children are demons. Plus, he’s a bastard. I guess that’s not really an excuse, but I did say these would be sincere.
