    The thing that gets me about KOTH_Harvest is that there's a window where a Sniper can get a good sight-line to the enemy spawn. As in, they step out of a metal sliding door and they're in your line of sight. Even Nucleus has bulletproof glass and bottom-floor exits if it's a problem, but Harvest? Step out of your spawn and die. Yes, yes, Scouts Scouts Spies Spies Stairs Stairs what the fuck ever. If I'm going to die instantly from across the map I at least expect the courtesy of getting the option of not being subjected to it.

    Two Heavies, side by side is basically a mobile sentry now. And the medic(s) behind them is the engineer babysitting his nest

    God damn it. The other day (due to all the talk of toasters running TF2), I upped all my settings to supermax'd awesome. The game started crashing every 20 minutes. Changed some of the settings. Crashes every 60 minutes. Changed them back to what they were before, crashes every 60 minutes.

    Just when the Pyro becomes decent again, TF2 has to start shitting.

    God i love the flare gun changes. Such a wonderful way to deal with heavies at decent range, just pop in and out of LOS letting a flare off until they drop. I held the enemy sewer on 2 fort multiple times against a heavy medic combo because 2 flares into a medic is pretty much fiery death. The heavy didnt notice and just kept slowing advancing down the pipe and gave me more than enough time to put enough flares in him to end the fight.

    Plus holy hell 10s of afterburn at 5 damage a second, knock any class down to 50 health and its over without some form of dousing. I was putting out burning teammates left and right.

    I have 2(Technically 3) hats. A Fancy Fedora and a Masters Yellow Belt.

    I just crafted a second Fancy Fedora.

    In my rage, I threw my first Fancy Fedora into the crafting area and thought for a moment:

    "Do I get rid of my masters yellow belt, or my spys beard?"

    I chose the beard.

    I got a mining light out of it.

    I now have hats for three classes.

    Did I make the right decision? I think so.

    In addition to this, I can now rock my new miners light for the Engy update. It is a good day gentlemen.

    Maybe it'll be in the engineer update!

    I just checked when trading was first mentioned on the TF2 blog. It's two days away from being a year ago.

    Wow.

    That video is worse than I imagined.

    And I have an excellent imagination.

    There is nothing redeemable about the video except for the fact that it was going to end eventually.

    Holy shit what a flaregun [strike]nerf[/strike] buff! I mean buff! Sorry, reflex.

    They've been doing nothing but buff the flaregun ever since it was introduced. Increased impact damage, mini crits to people on fire, etc.

    I think I'll give it another shot now.

    Nope. Steam forum accounts are completely seperate from Steam accounts. It even says so at the top if you're not logged in.

    I voted for Moonshine, but I kinda doubt it'll make a difference. I would assume that Valve have already figured out what custom maps to include in the next update.
