exactly how did they fix the antinguisher

Dropped Sandviches? I apparently haven't played in a while - how do you get one? Kill a heavy while he's eatin', then scrounge it off the ground? Do you get health?

 

[Eejit]

Yeah, sandviches drop when you kill a heavy who's holding one. Have done since they were added to the game afaik.

Killing anyone causes them to drop their currently equipped weapon. Usually picking up the weapon gives 50% ammo/metal. In the special case of the sandvich, it gives 50HP to non-Scouts, 75HP to Scouts instead of ammo.

Another special case is the Engie's toolbox, which gives 100% ammo/metal instead of 50%.

It wasn't critting ignited people like it's supposed to.

So the new bat wont do -%50 damage to non-stunned enemy's?

I hope that is the case. I thought removing the double jump was enough.

 

[Adabiviak]

Sweet! I guess I've never seen a heavy die during lunch.

I think they should update the Bonk! energy drink to make it so you still go into 3rd person to drink it, but you go back to first person to run around, maybe have a motion blur around the screen then when it wares off everything could blur for a second as you grind to a halt (well slow down). I also feel they should allow the drink to make you 10/15% faster as it would make more sence to why you are a "blur" plus it will make the "crash" after seem even worse!
