Wow, gabe went through an entire interview without asking to eat a baby

Good stuff

I like how valve is defending PC gaming, I agree with what they said on that matter 100%...

[Vandamguy]

that steamcould application sounds cool

Sniper achievements?

Zoso first to unlock rifle that shoots through walls?

They better do more than one of its sniper I think everyone can agree although 1 or 2 snipers are pretty key, any more and the team sucks big time.  Last thing we need is a bunch of shitty snipers running around.

Meet the sniper, not sniper achievements.... Meet the scout didn't bring the scout achievements either...

I think Sniper should get achievements and unlocks after all the other classes.  Sniper is the least useful class for the team.

I honestly want pyro buffs, allthough id be very glad if they just fixed the pyro hit detection.

If 30 percent of tf2 players are going pryo for a week it will be the ultimate cluster fuck. 

Good luck spies.

I wonder what potential achievments would be?  I was amazed how creative/difficult they got with the medic stuff, but seriously how deep can pryo gameplay even get?

my imagined list:
"i see what you did there" - burn 50 cloaked spies
"up close and personal" - destroy 3 buildings while ubered
"here's johnny" - axe kill a demoman in the back
"i forgot i even had a gun" - shotgun 50 people as they try to get out of fire range
"mmmmrrrhmmmggic" - ?????

"here's johnny" - axe kill a demoman in the back

poor poor scatman crothers

I personally think steamcloud will be useful only if you make it a habit of using cybercafes...
