    I don't think they actually nerfed the Soldier, it says that Rocket jumping is not affected. I think what it means is that if I bounce a soldier's rocket back at him, he takes full rocket damage, not 40% less.

    Oh, okay, then that makes much more sense.

    That is the TF2 Competive server it isn't open to the community at large. They have tournment rules on so no crits and class limits. Play on HONC or Detiers server.

    It's a brilliant tactic - drive the fans wild with insanely awesome buffs, and then discretely apply small nerfs that no one will notice while things calm down. I don't expect all this to last but by god, we've earned this moment of sweet ownage.

    Then you'll prolly have to play on a pub or message Tiny Lobster, Rak, or Ducom to see if they will let you in. I usually play on the Evil Avatar server if PA is full. Lots of the EvAv guys play on the PA servers so their server is a pretty good place to play.

    Hadouken kill icon is awesome. I really need to fix that OS memory problem, I've started getting it, but it only usually crashes maybe a few hours into the game, but now it's getting worse.

    Okay, after being abandoned by my friends on the 360 version of TF2, I'm just gonna buy it for PC. Plus, the updates and custom maps are oh so very tempting.

    Also, can I get a invite to the PA group? (Steamid: sjchszeppelin) Hopefully I'll see you guys online soon, and proceed to get my ass handed to me by you most likely.

    it's easy to reflect them straight back at the soldier or is it just easy to reflect them away from you?

    It's a blast that costs 25 of the thrower's ammo, but there's no cooldown.

    IT'S ABOUT MOTHERFUCKING TIME

    But really, this is the ideal way to balance pyros and soldiers. Any dickweed soldier that tries a frontal assault will end up eating the full damage instead of the splash with a well-timed backdraft. And the Backburner will finally let pyros take out soldiers from behind before they can go "UR A MAGET" and suicide-bomb them.

    I found this while digging around the Steam forums to see why they wouldn't give credit for all the previous kills. Some guy hit the 32-bit integer cap on all his stats: http://steamcommunity.com/id/altpluzf4/stats/TF2?tab=stats

    e: floating integer...?

    No, the reason is because it doesn't keep track of flame-specific stats, just overall.

    I might give this a miss actually. Surprise surprise, this game is complete shit when everyone is playing the same class.

    You can't even earn most of the achievements when you're only fighting other pyros.
