Updates of the Week (ongoing discussion)

[Eightball]

I think with the increased damage, it will most likely one shot you in air or not.  25% damage increase means in the range of 120-130 on direct hit I think.  Airshots are probably somewhere in the 160-170 range =O.  This thing might totally grape Heavies now too =X.

It seems like every class can buttfuck heavies nowadays :[

Be sure to lube up there Pig mask -_-;; At least it wasn't my first guess which was guided missiles. Although now that I think of it, that probably would never happen...

This just in, the next weapon for soldier is a guided missile!

[K2]

Chicago sucked, Denver worked until 75% then sucked, Seattle sucked, Ireland's good. Just finished.

[Moosendoo]

Servers were jammed so I switched to france and got it in a few minutes.  8)

I assume the servers are being updated or something since they're not coming up on my favorites.  EDIT: Now I see blu but I'm getting a water_dx80.pcf error of some sorts.
EDIT2: ahh, just saw the steamgroup announcements.  gotcha.

So tempting to start trying my hands on some crafting... but I'm not going to waste anything until I know exactly what I'm doing.

[Surf314]

It uninstalled itself? It moved to my uninstalled list and I had to reinstall it.....
