HEY LOOK SCOUT UPDATE ON THE 24TH

[Blues]

Yeah I'm pretty much not touching the game for a week or so, because Valve can't release a major update without breaking the fuck out of everything.

This would be due to everyone screaming "MORE NOW" and Valve doing their best to get it out to meet demand. The ironic part is, it's generally the exact same people who demand updates sooner who throw bitchfits about how some things are broken after fully updating the game. There isn't some magic button they press that goes "ADD ITEMS FOR THIS CLASS WITH THESE STATS", they have to program everything in and shit is bound to happen they don't catch.

Natascha is broken. And it's still not fixed, even though they fixed Axstinguisher.

Wouldn't call it "fixed." I jumped down on a heavy, gave him a quick poof to catch him on fire, then pulled out my axetinguisher and started swinging.  Three connecting hits with it. None of them were crits. He looked up and shot my quick to be lifeless body across the field.  Later on too with a random demo on fire. I swong at him twice. Nothing.

Hell, I'd say they messed it up even more. At least 75% of my hits were crits before they updated.

That confuses me. I thought the Axetinguisher was 100% crits when they were on fire. :S

Lol, how long did it take for the Scout update to come out?

And what was in the update? Community maps and forum unlocks. How was the laziest update the longest one? D:

[3clipse]

I personaly (and Confear) think this is one of my favorite updates.

[KarthXLR]

I think wrong

fixed.

The cons outweigh the pros in an immense fashion.

oops, just read it propperly, he never said he thaught they implemented any good ideas, or that the new items are amazing OR that the customs maps are bad-ass,

maybe he just dislikes the scout, makes you think sometimes, how we rush to conclusions and try to get cheap points online.

well, anyway, i have some knitting to do.

P.S. thats a euphamism for eating dicks

love and kisses, Karth esq.

Eh, if you don't like it you don't have to use the gear...

Exactly!  I kinda like the FaN myself, the sandman also could be useful, and I don't have bonk yet  :'(

[SAVAGE-0]

you know, with the limited play time I've given it, Bonk drink seems like it is a VERY good distraction.  1 for pulling sentry's fire, and 2. for scaring the shit out of people defending an area, while your back up comes in un noticed at first. 

I kind of think the ladder will slowly fade away, being new makes it more suprising, but I can still see it being quite a team based strategy...

Use it to clear sticky traps, most demos will blow their pipes on the first person that runs through

It was always broken to some extent. Every now and then it just decided not to crit, but now it outright refuses to crit at all.

The FaN really grew on me. After using it for a bit, I was able to find some awesome jumps that I can only do with a triple jump. The other I saw a scout run up the building next to the third cap on Badwater. I was able to jump from the stairs before the cap over to the balcony.  I pulled out my bat and bonked him down when he came up the stairs.

Finally unlocked Sandman and I like it.  So far this update has been pretty fun and I like it more than the other ones.  Still don't think Sandman should stop Ubers cause two scouts could just cancel an Uber out entirely, but I find it pretty fun.

Rest of the unlocks suck so much it's ridiculous.
