One of my favorite "fun" loadouts is Direct Hit/Buff Banner/Whatever melee (usually the Half Zatoichi). The DH's damage boost fills a banner so quickly, and when you toot your buff horn your DH rockets suddenly one-shot Medics and below from all ranges thanks to your minicrits. The katana is there because it's fun when you pull it off and if you chop another katana user that will fill your rage meter all by itself.

e: Here's my nametags. The hit ding of a DH with pitchmod reminds me of the piano chords in this song, which is also pretty fitting and I like it:


Nice Johnny Cash reference. Do you have a third that's "The Whirlwind in the Thorntree/It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks"?

Someone just got really mad at me for switching to the winning team on dustbowl. We were getting rolled on red after 2 stages so for stage 3 an opening popped up on blu so I joined. Is getting yelled at for switching normal?

You've probably seen me on a server, my calling card is "Defending is for suckers".

Mercury Crusader posted:

Nobody on BLU team made an attempt to push through the spawn camp or try an alternate route. Nobody thought "hey, this Demoman on our team killed a third of RED team somehow, I wonder what he did?" Instead, they all just hung out by the spawn door whining about how unfair the map is and how impossible it is to break a spawn camp.

I was playing 2fort and some guy was throwing a fit because he was getting spawn camped on the battlements exit. People on both teams (including the guys spawn camping him) told him he could just go through drop-down but he refused.

edit: And he kept calling everyone asshats as that was apparently the only insult he knew.

Regarding MVM_MANNHATTAN there was a fan-made map called that but this doesn't look like it. There was a fan made map whose name I forget that looked like an italian seaside town and it was very well done. I hope they pick that up for the second map.

It sounds like it's an automatic thing, where if someone dies the medic can heal the corpse to rez them.

Well he heals the little orange hologram of you and it shows a health bar filling up to 100 as he "heals" it to bring you back. It shows a small heart beat monitor in a speech bubble instead of the red + as well.

This update seems to have introduced an odd bug - barrel props on some maps (Harvest I've seen in person) are no longer solid objects and sometimes appear as two barrels next to each other. This lets the enterprising jerk crouch down inside the barrel model and shoot unsuspecting passers-by in relative safety.

Oh so this is why the catwalk things on Dustbowl around the very first point stopped being solid objects.

Max! is the name of probably the best Sniper in comp TF2.

Or am I missing a joke? e: I guess it's also likely that there was a hacker using his name

This dude was blatantly obvious. I don't know if he had the name as a reference or it was just coincidence. Unlike a lot of aimbotters he didn't change his name constantly it just stayed "Max!"

I saw one of those name changing aimbotters last night. Some dude joined our team and sat in spawn trying to kick him, except he was clicking the wrong name so instead half our team got kicked and so we lost.

I traded for a Professional Killstreak just because someone wanted to unload it for cheap because they think Phlog is garbage. I honestly like Phlog a lot and on some maps can easily get a killstreak going with one so this was a great deal.

Just uh... don't equip a killstreak with Pop-eyes I learned... kinda ruins the effect.
Since we're all talkin' metal and trading and junk, what is the best spot to buy Buds and stuff? Is it just TF2 Outpost or from Vacuum Full of Bees or what do you all recommend?

Are you kidding? Pop-eyes look amazing with it. That's like saying "don't equip x with Macho Mann". Everything goes with it. Everything.

I recognize a lot of those names. Especially hellz87. He's a nice guy and a good demo, iirc.

edit: I still play with the controller and aside from scout and sniper it's not very different. Most classes have either splash damage or you just have to be in the right-ish area at close range to hit them. Scout is really hard with a controller because you basically a fast engineer without the ability to build sentries.

edit2: there's also no voice commands on the 360 except "Medic!" so if you see an engy with full health yelling "MEDIC MEDIC MEDIC" it actually means "SPY".

Why not just bind the space bar to it and whack that real fast whenever there's a spy? In face, you could bind the whole bottom row to useful voice commands.

You can't bind voice commands at all. Even on a keyboard the 360 "sees" the game has them turned off. Or at least I never figured it out.

2Fort is fun for poo poo like sniper duels and engies and generally loving around because there's no need to capturing the flag. Like if on most maps if you aren't a) capturing the point or b) defending the point you're probably about to lose. On 2fort you can stand around or throw bodies at the other fort for over an hour and make no progress. It's boring if your trying to complete the objective but for screwing around it is perfect.
