Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Turtle - 12-16-2009
prepare to get batted to death every time you spawn
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Kirby - 12-16-2009
So this means sollys will haz little to no chance at surviving a dead-on reflected rocket.

Well duh. But they'll have shit for AoE, so I think they'll be a lot less dangerous than normal crit rockets.

But there is no way one can survive it.
Unless you're a fully buffed heavy... and I'm not even sure you would survive the fall damage that would come afterwards.

And this is a problem how? I'm pretty sure nothing but an overhealed heavy survives a crit sticky, and with a second normal sticky (easy to do on a heavy) they're fucked too. Not to mention you don't even need LOS with the heavy to do that...
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Surf314 - 12-16-2009
I added some kills by playing as demoman, and getting killed.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Maxon - 12-17-2009
Soldier gets the Pickaxe. The more you get hurt, the more damage the pickaxe does.
Also gets the bugle that builds up a rage meter. When full, he pulls out the bugle and gives everyone in the immediate vicinity mini crits.
And with the achievements, there is an achievement to kill people with a grenade...Hrmm..."Spray of Defeat
Use a grenade to gib a player."

And that makes much sense.

not trading my shotty
pickaxe seems beast though

You missed the snazzy new demo sticky launcher: http://www.teamfortress.com/demomanupdate/index.htm#item_3
I will probably never pub this game again, it really doesn't need more spam
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - [fr31ns]Karrde - 12-17-2009
Heavy also hates that bugle thingy. However, that pickaxe thing seems ideal for asshattery. Hopefully it does less damage at full health than the shovel to balance it out.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Surf314 - 12-17-2009
This update looks awesome. That banner is something I will more than likely be using. But that's because I'm a bros before foes kinda guy.

That honestly makes sense, it is encouraging people to charge at enemies with a melee weapon and no health.

people didnt do that anyway???
bugle looks decent, a bit situational, pickaxe is flat upgrade (and might get more people to melee battle)

Compared to bonk, nothing's situational. Hopefully it'll inspire people to be more teamwork-oriented though.
Anyways, liking the new melees both classes got. Pick axe vs a sword.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Surf314 - 12-17-2009
Bugle looks amazing, both classes now have something to break stalemates.
Re: I mean... Solly update thread - Turtle - 12-17-2009
They made the achievments so you can basically never do it with just 2 people
god damn valve found ANOTHER way
