If you snuck up on a sniper while he was in scope it'd be easy to do...wait..
Shit..now people are gonna try it on me..

I was thinking this would almost be the only way to do it unless you stand around a corner as the cart comes just spamming the taunt :x

Shit, I'd love to see a whole team use that as a defense strategy. Just stagger them so there's always a fireball there. It'd be stupid and not work at all, but it'd be funny. ^_^

hopefully scout will be next

AGREED!

but i mean the scouts abilties arent in there weapons like pyro and medic, its about his speed and ability to cap/push twice as fast so i dont see  what they could do for weapons, probably just 100% crit from behind?

I seriously hope they deal with the fact that the scout cant do shit against sentries.

Maybe switch out the pistol with a sentry paralyzer, paralyzes sentries but does no damage to them or something.  Has very low ammo.

Because seriously the scout is worse than useless if there is even one sentry up.

You can edge them around the corner if the engineer isn't camping it. Also you can out strafe SGs, depending on which directing its facing and the distance

I thought everyone was at a consensus that the sniper was next?  Including the boys over on the Steam forums. 

Although just because "Meet the Sniper" came out, doesn't mean we have to get the upgraded sniper pack yet. 

What order were the videos released?

JUMP FUCKING PADS :O

NO

This would make engineers even more useless. Seriously, if you gave this to a scout, that means the only classes who couldn't viably take out a sentry with be engy and medic. Just because you're a scout doesn't mean you don't have to play as a team. Ask your team to distract (or take out) the sentry, then you're free to do whatever you want.

[Dave]

like a tazor pistol or something, 1 shot for reload, has same lifespan as a sapper can obnly have one at once. unlim ammo, arcs and you cant swap out guns or it cuts off


but if the sentry is lvl 1, i can take it and an engi out with it with a little timing.

Admit it though, the reason the scout play time is so low is that you have to wait till your team dismantles the defenses and then rush in.  If you try to go into a teams flag area or capture point alone you gonna get raped.  And that sort of makes your speed useless if you got to wait around for your other team mates.

The one thing scout is good at though that probably wasn't intended is it's the ideal harassment class.  You may not get as many points but if you are defending in a cap and defend map and you've got one scout defending, there is nothing better at running down that clock.  Even if you aren't really killing anybody the whole attacking team will stop and try to kill the scout running and jumping like a retard instead of pushing the point.

[Surf314]

Id like to add that waiting around as a scout is a bad idea, the scout's strength is only in his ability to be hard as fuck to shoot.  If you are waiting for your team all the time your going to get killed pretty often.

It seems the scout is the new disadvantaged class and needs some tweaking.

Also the engineer has now become super effective duck as long as he's working with a pyro.  Engy + pyro is the new heavy + medic.  So don't go saying he's useless.

Maybe you're just not playing the right maps or the right teams. There should be plenty of other ways for you to get around and harass the other team if it's not Dustbowl or Goldrush.

I lol'd. I'm not sure what you're really trying to say here. That pyro's can protect your shit? Don't count on it in pub play, not even for a second.

In competitive play? I'm gonna still go with no. A pyro might be able to break ubers, but my instinct tells me the second he hops out of the shadows to harass the uber, there's going to be several heavy-hitters waiting for him, so at most he'll be 'an inconvenience.'

I disagree, I can solo pretty much any CLASS 1v1, scout is not underpowered, its just yet again people dont understand its role.

Sniper Quite easily.... do i even need to explain that?

and ask anyone who plays heavy on the Brb.U servers, I commonly kill heavy medic combos.

Read what he said, then reply. He said any class 1v1. Without a medic, a heavy is a sitting fucking duck. It doesn't take much for a scout to peck him down from 300, one harassment run at a time.

[ZoSo]

he obviously hasn't 1v1 with me as sniper

[Dave]

I have, a few times.

The trick with snipers as a scout is misdirection with pistol fire, being unpradictable as you push about his aim with pistolfire lets you get close enough to the sniper, and in close combat any scout who isnt a retard can molest a sniper.

sniper has 125 health? (thats about right)
a scattergun does rouhly 80-100 damage close range, 180 on a crit, thats two shots to a sniper, 4 at medium range, all 6 shots if you suck at aiming.

but if you are an extreme distance or dont know where the sniper is, ofcourse you might die, thats the snipers lovezone, if the sniper doesnt see you your golden tho.


also, thanks to the mass amounts of snipers who allways use the same spot on maps, i pretyt much perfected the art of jumping on there hats when they are scoped and batting them to death, there hat provides a kickass platform, works with spinning heavies to, but i just use the scatter gun while crouched, 4 shots -6 with overheal and you just molested a heavy.

[ZoSo]

Dave I don't even remember playing against you, much less a 1v1.

From the Stats Page:

91. United kingdom    Dave -BRB,u- 6 4 1.5000 3 0.38% 0.38% 0.5000


So if we did 1v1, you obviously lost.
