LOL
Honestly whining about spamming demomen is like whining about engies building sentry guns. The class is doing what it was designed to do. Heck, the previous version of the demoman (TFC) had 4 MIRVs and a detpack...and his pseudo-stickies detonated when he died. Demo's go down easy if you play smart and don't fight them on their terms. You don't back a heavy into a corner then charge him head-on and complain that the mini-gun is OP.
/I would like to see them nerf the targe w/intel problem though.

I laugh at people who say Demo is overpowered. Laugh in their face. Their eFace that is. I think this can only be proved by 1 statistic that it isn't OP. The Demo vs Soldier war. Soldiers totally kicked our arses, for the first part of the week, but after the learning curve had kicked in, Demos would have won it if it wasn't for the propaganda contest.
Demo is a harder class to learn, but when you learn it, it's oh-so-satisfying.
Every class has a downpoint, mainly in the player base.
(Think: W + M1 Pyros, Spamming Demos, n00b engineers with OP sentry spots)
All give each class a bad name. Noob Demomen = Spammy Demomen, Spammy Demomen = What people complaing about.

AAAAAAAAANYHOW. A nice comic.

lol i just wred this on nerfnow, and i knew it would be here on the forums.
okay, what i think is this:
Demomen, are spammy yes but the spam is SUPPOST to happen. the demoman is suppost to be able to hit you around corners, and if the class did'nt have stickybombs to camp spaces what would be the point of the class? stickies are half the point (half now because of the shield and sword) area denial is what the class was origionally MADE for.
the only reason i think they made the shield and sword instead of new explosion weapons is BECAUSE of this, if there were new explosion weapons, especially denial weapons (discounting the scottish resistance which is hard to use >.>) then we would have people doing this even more then today, that crit grenade is SUPPOST to hurt and the 8 stickies are SUPPOST to kill you, if you have a problem with it remedy it with a spy or a sniper, or hell even an uber if you really need one.
also: sword demos fall before shotguns, shield, while blocking a lot of damage, is easily destroyed.

Agreed. Spam is delicious. Don't associate noob-ness with such a delicious meat treat. Call it something bad tasting, like "olives".
What? Olives are tasty. More like balut egg... so gross...
Sorry to all my south Asian brethren, but its true.

I am ashamed to say that I have not indulged in the beauty that is "balut".
But I don't really like olives all too much.

I used to think soldiers/pyros were overpowered, but along with every class you need to pick your fights. The only part I hate about pyros is when you're demoman and the pyro comes around the corner and flames you death. Even then you can solve this by detonating a sticky around the corner to make sure no1 is there. I do this all the time on turbine now.
