    Yeah, it's just timing out when trying to connect to Valve servers. Keep hammering your way through like everyone else.

    Valve plays Soldier, they lose to good Pyros, nerf Pyros.

    how is the detonator a nerf?

    uhh, items in the beta don't exactly count. It also doesn't even seem that good, considering how easy it is to put out fire.

    so you're saying that giving the pyro an item we all knew was coming and making no other changes is a nerf

    The official site isn't loading, the wiki said it was a beta item, and I didn't see any other mention of it.

    Besides, it was a joke. The pyro has been fucked over a bunch.

    This went up yesterday or the day before, I think: http://www.teamfortress.com/uberupdate/thedetonator.html

    That page is loading fine right now, but just in case the whole site is borked and anyone is interested here is a screen grab: http://i.imm.io/6LAr.jpeg

    I was gonna say that, because I saw you say it I think before, but that just sounds ridiculous. Spies have it hard enough. I say just if that engy destroys any sapper on any friendly object, his pistol then minicrits, as a way to deal with said spy.

    But gets 4 shots instead of 6.

    And the 3rd item:

    The Ratchet
    Repairs buildings at twice the normal rate
    -40% damage
    No random critical hits

    This game is now free to play, forever

    free accounts won't have access to all the trading and crafting abilities, and they won't get the rare or cosmetic items, but the gameplay is forever free.

    And accounts are upgradable at any time, with any purchase from the Mann Co. Store. So, it costs about 1.99.

    A triple jump that takes away 10 health every time you use it? Sounds fine to me.

    I'll probably stupidly kill myself with that fairly often.

    Yeah, and you can't pair it with the Milkman set. Sounds pretty balanced to me, quite honestly. The only problem I see is FaN scouts maybe being able to get up to some places they shouldn't, but since rocket jumping has been around forever it probably won't be a big deal.

    I'm more concerned with the new flaregun.

    unless he refused one out of pride


    or because it's a video game and there doesn't need to be logic
