    The Medic can kill just about anybody 1v1 if he gets away and they chase him, but if the Pyro gets in close range the Medic should be toast. If he isn't then the Pyro sucks with a flamethrower.

    Only losers play medic, winners play pyro and burn things

    And that was the day Zombie Monkey was never healed again. And thus always sucked.

    Pyros + Medic = Fast moving flames that are either critting or being spewed without death.

    Seriously, if you don't know this, and you've never seen the power of an ubered Pyro, then no offence but you're probably one of the worse Pyro players out there.

    I was only able to play a few weeks before i left for uni without my pc but i was usually top 3/4 on my team without a medics assistance.

    I love killing medics with my axe, they have never experienced real combat so its easy

    Some of our medics are the most frightening people to be stuck in close combat with.

    You have no idea.

    Only if the medic sees the pyro coming.

    On a related note, I have a question about the public/PA server. There was something about reserved slots for PA members, but how would that work?

    Worst class? No combat experience? Really? The only people who believe that are the ones who either never play medic or who play it and subsequently suck at it because they never bother to switch away from the medigun. Man I'm largely casual on this game with 1 medic unlock and even I've had a tonne of kills with the bonesaw. :|

    Anyway, regardless of all that, there are few classes that don't benefit heavily from medic backup, and Pyro certainly isn't one of them. However good you proclaim yourself to be, a good medic - pyro combo is death on wheels.

    Seriously. I have rained fiery death on so many on the third stage of Dustbowl. That is the most wonderful time to be on a pyro - medic team.

    Pyros need Medics more than anybody, the main problem is that going all the way in is too dangerous for the Medic. At the very least though Medics should top off every Pyro they see. And Pyros shouldn't plan on suiciding, if you make it back out and get healed again you'll do a whole lot more damage in the long run.

    Learning to set people on fire and run away is probably the single most important skill for a pyro to learn.

    I love the giant wall of names... kind of poking a little bit of fun at the mix and match voice samples for the announcer.

    Also, this was the video I got a sneak peek of at my visit to Valve. A few things they changed from the version I saw: Originally there was much less exposition when running to the intel room. I told them I felt a bit confused about what exactly was going on at the start and I see they've added the big board and explicitly say "red spy in base, we need to secure the intel". Also the sexin' the scout's mom story was completely absent. And at the end they had the red spy reveal himself and about to stab the heavy and soldier, but quickly disguise back when they turn to look at him. Then when they go off in search of the red spy, the scout says "right behind you" and walks off while cloaking.

    One spawn per round, exterminate the other team. If the round takes too long, a CP opens up and the teams try to capture the point while exterminating the other team.

    It's about the lamest way to play TF2 I can imagine. Which is a shame, because the maps look splendid.

    For me its on and off since I deleted my stats, things seem to not register a lot more now and some achievements progress (gorky parked for one) were lost entirely but all the scout ones seem to be okay.

    Oh yes and another thing: After watching the animatic they asked us if we felt we had learned anything new about the Spy. We answered no, we felt it fit in with what we already knew. I suspect this is why the Spy+Scout's mom thing: they want the videos to flesh out the characters a bit, in addition to showing off what they're about.
