Is there more to the Rescue Ranger changes than just "repairs now cost metal?"

The exact wording isquote:Doubled the amount of metal applied (per wrench hit) when upgrading buildings during the "Setup" period Why would they be talking about wrench hits when the Rescue Ranger isn't a wrench? I agree with Countblanc - sounds like it was a formatting error and the change is related to the Engineer class and not specific to the Rescue Ranger

It downloaded, I hit play, and the music started looping and it froze and then crashed to desktop. So fitting!  (It did work on the next start)

Thankfully I held onto 3 years of Swissmas-gifted backpack expanders - they upped the maximum number of pages! Maybe when the servers unclog in a few hours I'll even be able to apply them

Does the Kunai still steal HP? Does it give the spy all that extra max HP?

My favorite spy-trope is still the 10-hours-as-spy ineffectual and useless Cloak & Dagger user sitting in a corner for 10 minutes waiting for "the perfect time to strike" and then forgetting to disguise and uncloaking a foot from a sentry they intended on sapping. poo poo will always be funny to me.

For the Pyro Slapper-weapon contract, I had to get double and triple kills with it. I loved DR spies because it meant an easy double-kill. It seems like more spies are using their guns these days, too. If you're ever looking to change things up a bit, give no-knife spy a try. Can be very fun and rewarding.

Convert it into keys ASAP. Don't accept paypal, don't accept "half up front, half after trade" and if anyone tries to alter the agreed upon deal, immediately unfriend them and move on. TF2Outpost and backpack.tf would be where I'd start first by listing the item for sale and your asking price. It may take a few days to find a serious buyer, and expect to be added by a dozen scammers who will try to trick you somehow.

I dunno, if I was given the choice between Valve adding some new weapons, or fixing 1) matchmaking 2) hacking 3) hitboxes 4) melee detection 5) balance, I'd definitely choose neither - give me more hats.

cock hero flux posted:tf2 received plenty of support and I'm okay with the fact that they're not really doing much with it now but the matchmaking thing is awful and I have no idea why they forced it You're playing with friends, or being very selective with your maps then - I have most of them selected (except for Special Maps and 2fort) and typically get matched to a server within 15 seconds.

Ariong posted:Why Darwin's Danger Shield? I haven't had much trouble with Pyros as a sniper. As a pyro, I hate DD snipers. They have about 1-2 more seconds to get off a lucky crit melee. As a pyro, I also hate demoknights. Though, as a pyro, I mostly just hate myself.

Check out scrap.tf for weapons you want - don't buy them from the store. If you want to buy something, grab a key and sell it to scrap.tf and buy every single weapon in the game and have a bunch of metal left over for some hats. I'm sure I'm going to miss some, but here are some of the more decent weapons that are situationally superior to stock weapons, or at least very strong sidegrades. I'm sure others can add some "OMG YOU'RE WRONG YOU DIDN'T MENTION THE _____" but this is what I primarily use situationally when I'm not using stock loadouts. Scout: Primary: Use the scattergun. It's amazing. Close-range meatshots ruin everything. Secondary: Bonk Energy Drink allows temporary invulnerability allowing you to get past enemy lines or distract a sentry so a teammate can kill it. Mad Milk splashes onto enemies and gives tiny amounts of health back to you and your team when you cause damage to anyone splashed Winger lets you jump higher when in use Melee: Atomizer allows triple jumps Holy Mackerel will display hits in your killfeed and can allow you to see if you thumped a cloaked spy or not Soldier: Primary: Black Box removes a rocket but allows self-healing Direct Hit fast rockets, little splash damage - great for destroying buildings Secondary: Buff Banner: No shotgun but you provide a few seconds of minicrits to your team when you cause enough damage Concheror: No shotgun but you provide a few seconds of movespeed and heal-on-hit to your team when you cause enough damage Melee: Disciplinary Action: Whip teammates to grant you both movespeed, has a higher melee range and can hit enemies behind you Pyro: Primary: Backburner: Very strong - grants crits when attacking enemies from behind, slightly better damage than stock, airblast costs more ammo Phlogistinator: Causing damage builds a meter, rewarded with a few seconds of Minicrits - no airblast Secondary: Flare Gun: Crits burning enemies, pretty useless against other pyros Melee: Powerjack - runspeed bonus while in use Homewrecker - Removes sappers from friendly buildings, increased damage against enemy buildings Back Scratcher - health kits heal you for more, reduced medic healing - great for roaming pyros Demoman: Primary: Loose Cannon: I don't use this but some demo's who have the timing down will consistently wreck me. Secondary: Unless you're doing a demoknight loadout, use stock stickybomb launcher. Melee: I prefer stock bottle unless demoknighting - both Eyelander and Half Zatoichi have their benefits and disadvantages Heavy: Primary: Tomislav - no spinup, no noise, reduced spread Secondary: Sandvich: Right click to throw for a teammate (or enemy) to eat, left-click to self-heal over 5 seconds Melee: Gloves of Running Urgently / Eviction Notice - these aren't for killing, they're for running back from spawn after that spy stabbed you for the 12th time Engineer: Primary: Rescue Ranger - allows healing and moving your buildings from a distance, bad at killing Widowmaker - if you hit every shot, you'll never run out of ammo Frontier Justice - Kills by your sentry store crits granted when your sentry dies - useful in conjunction with Minisentrys. Secondary: Wrangler - you remote control your sentry Short Circuit - situational, destroys incoming enemy rockets or grenades Melee: Gunslinger - instead of a level 3 sentry, you have a rapid-fire level 1 disposable sentry and won't cry when a heavy murders it effortlessly. Medic: Primary: Crusader Crossbow - heals teammates too far for your medigun range Secondary: Kritzkrieg - instead of invuln, grants crits when used Quickfix - useful when healing lots of teammates in rapid succession, grants rapid regen when used Vaccinator - difficult to get the hang off, allows you to select bullet, explosive, or fire resistance by cycling through each mode. Melee: They're basically all upgrades over stock, but I use Solemn Vow to see enemy health and sometimes the riskier Ubersaw option which grants you medigun charge on hit. Sniper: I don't play sniper. Huntsman is fun but not too serious. Jarate can be useful situationally. No idea what preferred melee option is. Spy: Primary: Ambassador - headshots are crits, hope you can aim! Secondary: Get used to the stock invis watch, it's really the best option. Dead Ringer - Triggers invis when you get hit tossing out a fake dead body. Only idiots will think you're really dead. Can be used as a Get Out Of Jail Free card if you're trying to get behind enemy lines. Cloak and Dagger - Please don't use this as you'll spend half the time standing like a statue somewhere thinking you're being sneaky but you're really being useless. Melee: Spycicle - silent kills, enemy team doesn't see your kills on their feed, but a pyro will melt it and you're now useless and probably on fire and dead. Eternal Reward - you cannot disguise unless you stab someone, and now you're them until you attack someone else or die because you're a heavy in the middle of their entire team who just saw the kill. If I missed something, feel free to add. Stock loadouts are really super powerful in nearly every situation, and there's nothing that I'm aware of in the game that is seriously more OP than stock. Also this post is the most effort I've put into TF2 in years. VVV Thanks Broken Cog, updated and reworded Frontier Justice.

Thanks all, definitely knew I missed a few Grapplejack posted:I prefer the bomber for demoman primary TBH but all of his stuff is to taste. I think I've used the Iron Bomber for all of 5 minutes when it was first released, and I typically don't see many Demo's running it... how do you use it differently compared against the standard grenade launcher?

here's how to get what you want in tf2: buy a key find someone to give you 50-60 refined metal for your key buy what you want with the metal instead of playing a lottery - you can afford every single standard weapon in the game and at least a hat and misc for every single class in the game. but for reals, this man knows whats up: Peanut President posted:do not put money into this dead rear end game, that's my advice

ArfJason posted:thundermountain is good and stage 3 is one of the best maps in the videogame For as much as I make Hightower jokes lately, Thundermountain can run entirely too long - like, excruciatingly long - Dota length matches long - getting to that sweet third stage. Every Casual matchup on Thundermountain I've ever had is either a complete roll for one side and the map changes in about 15 minutes, or you're now about to spend an hour and a half watching 5 of your paste-eating teammates run around ineffectually playing Secret-Agent-Man or repeatedly running head-on by themselves into meatgrinders instead of grouping up and pushing the drat objective. EDIT: I just played it and the 15 minutes part is inaccurate - I forgot after you finish rolling or being rolled the sides switch. Yeah the map takes ages.
