The backburner requires a pyro to get point blank always. The back crits and +50 health give him the upper hand almost over all other classes. Overpowered? I don't think so.
Take Soldier vs Pyro. Pre-update the soldier had the upper hand over a pyro in long, medium, and short range...
I lol'ed at your acheivement server experience because I was there myself. I went through about 10 of the worst griefing server experiences of my life until I found one where people actually used voice chat and cooperated.
However for the Valve comment, hindsight is always 20/20. The fact...
My thoughts on the pyro update:
Soldier vs Pyro playing field leveled - the pyro being able to deflect rockets levels the playing field between the two at best, and allows a pyro to escape his own ambush more of a reality at worst. Overall not a bad thing!
Engineers are going to love pyros...
I bet it does more damage than the shotgun- but has a way slower rate of fire.
As much as I think the shot gun is the most boring weapon for the pyro I might stick with it over a slow firing flare gun. I dunno, can't knock it until I try it.
But hey, if the hit detection is improved for...
Engineers are going to have open season with their sentries from this release since spies are going to be getting roasted left and right. That is until ubered pyros arrive.
All I can say is this.
NO MORE ANT LIONS PLEASE.
We have done ant lions, we have done ant lion gaurdians, we have done ant lion workers, we have done ant lion grubs. We have done ant lion pherome pods, we have done ant lion pherome extract.
I am done with them. Please no more. Let them...
My condolences.
My dad died at age 59. Hurts like hell. Time doesn't heal wounds, IMO, you only learn to wait longer before reopening them over time. []Deace
Don't eat peyote while playing TF2. Last time I did that the pyros flames came out the monitor and lit my keyboard on fire and it got on my hand and traveled up my arms then I was engulfed in blue flames the fonts turned to mayan symbols then I was suddenly an eagle over the amazon rain forest...
Um.. so are you saying if there was no way to download it online these same people who have spent $50 to use the game just for benchmarks? Because I don't think they would.. therefore sales weren't lost to piracy because they never would have bought the game if it were their only option.
They obviously didn't take a lesson from Crysis.
Most gamers are not going to shell out an additional $250-300 on a video card (in some cases also a new motherboard, ram, and cpu to accomodate the video card) just to play one game.
I checked out the Crysis demo when it was released and...
