We could all use Aimbots! Oh oh oh. We could have a Billy Mitchel Memorial "fun match" where everyone gets to cheat their hearts out. Imagine entire teams using aimbots, wallhacks and speed hacks.
Then three months down the road, everyone going "Hey, I just got VAC banned, wtf? Fuck steam! "
Does VAC care if you use cheats/hacks on non-VAC servers?
What's this? I leave town for 3 weeks and come back to golden wrenches, people fisting machines, and some sort of vertical map? Well look out, here I come.
Of course the engineer update comes out while I'm gone.

I have been thinking a lot about sandwitches these days. I just sent the following email to Robin Walker regaring my idea to bring back Heavy Sandwitch Parties.
With the engie update, came a huge nerf to the Heavy’s Sandwich. Though the idea is solid, it takes so much fun out of the setup time for the hungry Heavy. Before the nerf, setup time meant it was time to eat a few sandwiches and taunt the other team. I really miss this. I have come up with a couple of ideas to allow for both systems.
1. The bar is not emptied if a Heavy with full health eats a sandwich. It does not heal, though.
2. The pressing the taunt button will allow you to eat as many sandwiches as you want, but they do not provide healing. You only get heath from using “m1”
I hope something can be worked out. There was just nothing like having a Heavy Sandwich Party.
but then you go medic and you uber a soldier using it and you're all psssh
there's 8 seconds of my life wasted

Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.
I got the Gunslinger yesterday, and boy howdy does it ever make the Engineer play like I always wanted it to. Plop the sentry down and go. Having to spend two and a half seconds of combat time (as a floor) just to put up a fragile little dink-shotter was never fun nor useful, but man do mini-sentries ever come through in a pinch. On Thunder Mountain, the last point, I managed to hold the top for my team (preventing the defenders from getting onto the platform) by Pistol/Mini-Sentrying a targaxe Demo, then deliberately 'sploding the sentry and killing an overhealed Soldier with two straight-on 180-damage crit shotgun blasts. It's just... it feels right, man. Screw the Wrangler, the Frontier Justice and the Gunslinger are enough.
EDIT: I installed the Oxide HUD, and I'm sort of conflicted. I don't like having the various bars and numbers just floating out in space doesn't feel like it's "reduced clutter", it feels like it turned a visually engaging UI into a debug display. On the other hand, I love (love LOVE) having actual numerical readouts for allied HP counts. Is there any way to activate that and only that? Anyone know how the UI system works in the Source engine?

Make sure to email him something about being able to toast heavy sandvitches with the flamethrower too.
kritzing a wrangler engie doesn't do anything right

earlier today i had a ridonks round as direct hit soldier on badwater, i was hittin all da shots, barely a miss among them
several times i would come up behind them in the tunnel on the first point and use all my rockets and watching everyone clumped up take 100-120 damage from my rockets was so beautiful
then the shotgun would finish off the rest
i also had some good airshots which made me feel good

The Wrangler + a level 3 sentry = Its like an orgasm, only with bullets

Pistol + Mini Sentry is too good to pass up. Honestly, at the point where the pistol's ramp up damage is doing 18-20 a bullet, it's awesome.
We just played Coldfront on the drama chamber. Overall I like it, but I think the final point is too easy to defend. In the two rounds we played, each team managed to hold onto the final point for a very long time. The point wasn't even captured in the second round because tha map time ran out.

considering it can't see those, no!
but i still wouldn't risk it with tf2 sooo
Like, you want to lose or somethin?
There is no contest
Direct hit sucks
I kill people with splash from the direct hit.
It makes them so mad.
its like I'm able to pull the worst possible quality out of every weapon, and infuriate people with it.
no it doesn't, though
It sucks so bad. I crafted it away and would not be sad if I never found another one.
As a scout I support this message. The direct hit sucks everyone stop using it.
but for straight up utility, i would 8/10 times use regular rocket launcher
i wonder how often it's used in comp play
and if it is, if it is mostly on pocket or roaming
but then you go medic and you uber a soldier using it and you're all psssh
there's 8 seconds of my life wasted

That's what she said.

It does
The rocket launcher doesn't need to do more damage, having splash is much more useful
i totally tauntkilled a guy when i thought i was nowhere near him
EDIT: also I shall be joining the srs bsn tournament; gottabegaming and all that jazz.
NO ONE EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION! Oh bugger.
NOOOOOOOOO
I HAD THE BEST THING EARLIER
AND MY TF2 WASN'T RECORDING EVERYTHING I DID
I COMBO CRIT WITH THE GUNSLINGER TWO HEAVIES OUT OF THEIR TELEPORTERS
THEN I TRIED TO TAUNTKILL THE NEXT GUY OUT OF IT
AND GOT TELEFRAGGED
what the fuck did i just watch?
Ha, I know.
The part where he is riding the sentry should be the default wrangler animation.

Right... blocking that from my memory.
good
cause i have a hat for that class
although a spy hat is pretty bad, considering it'll like be not seen for the whole game anyways
I like the part when I sworded your face in
Also dunno if this has been posted yet

my favourite is the spy

This is entirely due to the team they're stabbing. You'd think having everyone playing engineer would help teach them anti-spy techniques, but nope.
i think i still got the old skills
and to be seeing in killscreens, eh
Valve needs to put in a Bartholomew Cubbins hat. No idea how the character would keep taking hats off to reveal the next one though.
