    Anyone interested in a Strange Shotgun?

    http://www.tf2items.com/id/orikae

    That shotgun still up for grabs?

    Got quite a few items and would be willing to trade another strange weapon (Natascha / Direct Hit) or some spare items for it.

    Hey Ebo I was gonna post that replay where I shot those guys with a kritz but whenever I try to watch it the game crashes and says getdynamicbaseline: findstringindex(bullshit)

    thanks valve

    Mine does this too. :(

    A great exchange from last night:
    Me: "Youuuuuuu Butt."
    A bunch of other people: "Butt"
    Jakorian: "How many times can you say 'butt'?"
    Me: "I can say butt a buttload of times."

    All this talk about OP heavies makes me wish the TF2 stats page worked, and worked right. It used to be heavy was the least played class by far.

    Dude's tunnel-visioning pretty hard; if that'd been me and Jakorian were on the other team it would have ended about five seconds in.

    (I agree that in practice a Heavy with a Medic is going to lay waste to the other team.)

    I seem to recall seeing once that the melee hit detection is actually based on your character's axis-aligned bounding box rather than their on-model collision volumes. That contributes a ton to the strangeness of melee collision detection, because sometimes they attack into your diagonal (a huge range advantage) and sometimes you attack into their flat (making an attack miss that looked like a hit in other circumstances). Throw in lag compensation, and ugh.

    That's why I'm not crafting any of the new melee weapons (and I actually got the Disciplinary Action by random drop). Melee is garbage on a good day.

    I think melee exists mostly so the Sniper can feel good about himself when he chops a Spy that tried to backstab him.

    The pyro can't airblast with any flamethrower or use the detonator.

    And I'm not sure if it's a honc thing I'm just sayin. Because I sweat another pyro airblasted me.

    The pee gun is shit. Equipping it is basically like equipping a sign that says 'I'm too bad to fullfil the role for the class I picked'.

    Also pyro without airblast is pointless. HonC continues to be awful at stuff.

    What are you talking about? The Sydney Sleeper is an amazing defense weapon.

    *whole team is looking at a single door, waiting*

    *bad guys show up*

    *BANG! jarate gun!*

    *whole team shoots the bright yellow guy*


    I may not get many kills or score very high, but I get a shitload of assists, and actually help hold the point or whatever we're doing.

    Also it makes the best noise....so there's that.

    Applying Jarate to enemies from afar sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me. Especially if it still has enough power to kill Medics and Snipers with a single charged shot.
