How the fuck do you people shoot through the grates?
Pyros can shoot through any gates and demos used to be able to but I havn't seen them do it latley. Some one also said you could snipe through one specific gold rush gate though im yet to see it.

I was backstabbed once after shutting down my computer.
Actually I have seen the spy able to get into the first enemy spawn in Badlands, which is a bug that has probably been discussed ad nauseam. Not sure how to duplicate it.

It's really easy. Wait for someone on the other team to open the spawn door by leaving, and go in at the same time. That'll put you into the spawn, but you can't really do to much there, because you seem to clip a lot on invisible things.
ust a quick update for what Version 1.1 is going to have in store. I am hoping to have a release for this sometime this weekend or early next week.
- Limiting Pyros on RED. This will either be a straight cap or a percentage of the team. The exact amount or percentage will be able to be determined by a CVar, since larger servers can accommodate more Pyros.
- Fixing "Victory/Loss" sound bug where the victory sound is not played sometimes.
- Fixing "No Engineer" bug from instantly selecting a new Hunted instead of waiting 20 seconds.
- Fixing Hunted self death respawn, so that the Hunted suiciding or falling from a great height will not cause everyone to respawn.
- Fixing respawn when a new Hunted is selected.
- Disabling respawn if the Hunted is switched during Setup.
- Adding in some rotation methods. The Hunted will now automatically change at the beginning of a new round.
- Adding in the "votehunted" chat command. This will also auto-execute if The Hunted dies more than a set amount of times within a minute.

It's not as simple as "pyros can shoot through" because it has to be at exactly the right position or angle or something. (never have been able to figure it out) I do it by accident every once in a while.
The worst thig ever is getting headshotted on well before game starts. that is whack.
Well, there is a gap between the train car and the building. You can fire a number of things into there.
I am well acquainted with the gap. And I do not mind getting shot by many things through the gap.
But being headshotted, that usually means death, which is crap.

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say it results from the door objects not being "airtight", as it were. Functionally, they're two big boxes sandwiched together, so there might be a chance that you can slip an object between them at the seam.

My favorite musical instrument is the air-raid siren.
I don't mind the pyro-flame-through-gate thing that much but demomen who fire pipes through grates are scumbags.
I've even seen people do it on the PA servers. They're still scumbags.
Yeah, that was me yesterday. I'm despicable and dastardly. It's wrong and I know it pisses me off when someone else does it, but Pyros firing through the grate are equally scumbaggy and those were the fuckers I was aiming at.
Before anyone even dares say "you shouldn't stand so close to the grates" fuck you, you shouldn't be firing into the spawn and those who say "oops sorry lolz didn't mean to kill you" can also go fuck themselves, your intentions were rather clear what with your spraying fire at the fucking grate, obviously completely unintentional.
As a demo I toss all kinds of shit over the trains in Well. Whatever I can find - forks, sunglasses, cats - it all goes into the grenade launcher like a blunderbuss. I'm training you guys for the real world, so man up.

On Well you're not firing into an enemy spawn, doesn't count and it's pretty much standard practice firing over the trains now.
I shoot through the grate as a pyro all the time. I think its along the lines of demos and soldiers going over the well cars before the round or at least shooting between that crack of the car and building.
At least the pyro and soldier doing it is avoidable by standing 1cm beyond touching the grate, with a demo you throw nades all over the starting area.
There is a Hunted plugin out there and from what I heard, is pretty bug free. Since we don't have a community of douche bags, perhaps we can try it out on one of the servers?

I never asked for this!

True story.
I was disappointed to find that the Pyro's hadouken can't kill people though gates, even if the flame is going right through them. Damn!
So fucking crafty!

The flames usually don't go through for me.

It seems to vary a lot- if you're the pyro, just spew some flames and see what happens.

You should know better, Ginger. You injured me, a fellow demoman, and I don't think you so much as clipped our ass-pyros. You've sunk to their level!
