CVG.com got a confirmation from Valve that the next Team Fortress 2 unlockables goes to the Pyro. Just like the Medic you have to get unlock the achievements in order to access the new unlockables. [br]Valve plans to roll out the unlockable weapons system for the other TF2 classes in the future.
 
I figured this. And I'm pretty sure I heard it before as a rumour.
 
I wonder if this means that the Scout is after the Pyro. It seems like they are going from least to most used. I'll certainly be interested to see what they come up with, I do like the Pyro even if I don't play him very often.

BTW I just noticed that the Medic is now the 3rd highest played on official Valve maps (with data taken from over the past week). That's a rather dramatic improvement, even if there is still farming going on.
 
He went from being almost bottom class played to being second. I didn't even notice!

I play Pyro an awful lot nowadays. He's just so fun. Achievements would be nice.
 
Is it me, but i find the pyro the weakest class, and the whole best close quarter class is rubbish. Even if you keep the cross hairs on the enemy its still takes a long time untill he is burned to death.
I have the feeling that there is some kind of delay when the flames arrive to the target, hence you have to fire in front of the enemy?

As for close quarters, heavy is better yet slower, soldier can blow you up no problem, demo same thing. and all the other classes it takes to long, up close to kill them.

They should increase the amount of damage up close of the flames.
 
WOHOO! My favorite class! I'll just have to get them weapons fast..
 
Sounds good to me. These will make the whole class more enjoyable in general, I think :)
 
It'll be epic fighting hordes of pyros when the achievement craze hits. It was at times horrible with the 4-8 medics ? team, but this sounds fun, although I most probably won't be playing spy for a while...
 
Napalm rocket launcher please.
 
Looking forward to these. Pyro is my most played class at nearly 40 hours play time.
 
It will be hilarious seeing hordes of newb pyros trying to set eachother on fire.

Spy will probably be next as once these are released there probably won't be many people willing to play spy anymore.
 
200 hours as pyro and counting... so many newbs gunna go pyro D:
 
That's not up to me, it's up to you to disprove it.
 
I heard someone say it was gonna be pyro, and they said release date was aimed at being June 26th. I wonder if it will actually be June 26th.
 
200 Hours? I only have 14 hours, and THAT is my most playted class.
 
I often play spy, and find that the Pyro effectively nullifies the Spy from games. Spy can hold his own against other classes with cloak/disguise but if Pyros just spam fire everywhere (which they do) Spies can't really do much against it.
 
Psht, you'd be surprised at how few Pyros there are. A good spy can easily outwit a pyro.

Hordes of Pyros will be fun. Certainly an excuse to play as Demoman.
 
That's not up to me, it's up to you to disprove it.

Actually, it is up to the "believer" to prove that their claim is right. It's never the job of the critics or disbelievers to prove their disbelief. It's one of the easiest ways to see that religion and theism is stupid.

Anyway, on topic:

Yay pyro!
 
All the other characters are male. It doesn't make sense to me to have the only female character the pyro.
