    WoW is awful play WAR.

    Both are fine.

    WAR has Witch Elves (and Destro in general, never saw a faction in a MMO I could care less about) and the shitty T2 scenarios (dear Doomfist Crater: Eat a dick. kthx.) , which are points against it.

    Is the TF2 thread the longest sustained thread in the history of game threads on G&T? It seems like there has always been a TF2 thread on the first, or at least second page ever since the game came out.

    Not to keep on the Halo topic, but there's been a Halo thread active since the day Halo 2 came out. It even managed to survive the grand megathread sweep.

    I want to know why the shovel has the longest range of all melee weapons, yet it is halfway up the chart in damage per hit.

    If you don't care about the lore for black orcs and the Greenskins in general you are a terrible excuse of a human being.

    Also if you're not playing Morkain's Temple in T2 or fightin' for Keeps you're doing it wrong.

    Spies specialize in harassment and killing singular targets that are hard to reach by conventional means. Also an intangible: fear.

    Any retard can walk forward and hold the attack button.

    So is it that surprising that a class that's 125 hp that has to run through a deadly rain of fire has negative points per hour as a whole when a lot of people are dumb?

    I think it's more of a surprise that a class can get negative points (Pyros do, too) in a game where you can't do anything to lose points.

    I imagine it's a graph of how many points each class has generated, out of some total number of points earned.

    The one with the negatives is labeled "avg points/hour", so I don't think that's the case. I guess it's caused by a couple of fucked up servers.

    cp_steel protip: instead of throwing yourself at A for the entire duration of the map without even touching the CP, why not help that single scout that has capped E half the way just by himself?

    That's why steel is both awesome and annoying. Offense has to run a distraction on E to get people off A, so people can capture A.

    B is just a slugfest and C is where offenses usually get stonewalled.. gotta fall back on the 'ol reliable uber.

    The fight over D and E is some of the best killin' in the game.

    Soldiers are even less capable of spam than demomen. I mean there's nothing to fall back on once you fire 4 rockets, and a soldier who's reloading is easy pickings.
    His shotgun fucking rules though.

    If you're using the shotgun as anything other than a finisher before banking back to the rlauncher, you're doing it wrong

    Bring it 1v1 I'll show you a half dozen other ways.

    You can use the shotgun to lower enemies health long distances, before approaching with 4 loaded rockets. After shooting a couple bucks into an enemy, you'd be surprised how fast he'd die to rockets after.

    I've also been on top of elevated areas, such as B gravelpit or C gravelpit, and the angle the demo/soldier tried getting up was too tough to airshot. Whip out the shotty, shoot a couple bucks into him as he passes by, then shoot a rocket where his propelled destination is.

    Shotgun is very very useful, but most seem to use it as just finishers, which it's amazing at doing also. Much better than any other #2/sidearm for any other class (cept demo ;d)

    Long range? And deal like what, 40 dmg? Most good soldiers (not me, I'm the worst soldier ever) can predict long range, just have to keep your eyes on the feet. I repeat, keep your eyes on the feet. You can be amazed how accurate you can hit at range just by following that rule, you'll make people swear at you, cuss the living daylights at your father, but you'll love every moment of it, you'll love firing that rocket that just clips his legs and launches him, and then in his blind panic he fires willynilly, which you dodge so gracefully, before launching a rocket that just kisses his face in the air, before he yells into the mic "FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGOT"

    ANYWAYS
    Back to the OP

    If a soldier or demo rjump/stickyjumps up to you and lets you shotgun them to death without even hitting you with their rockets/pipes/stickies on the way, they deserve to lose. Plus, the best way these days to deal with rjumping soldiers is to rjump yourself and hit them out of the air. Which is awesome, because they go like "HOW THE FUCK? FUCK THAT ASSHOLE AND HIS MOM"; you'll crave it once you get it right. You'll love the brazen freedom of flight and then compensating for his velocity and squeezing a rocket right into his dick in the air, and landing without a scratch as a pile of gibs lands behind you. I

    Also, I find the scouts pistol to be better than the shotgun.
