Any one else?

[? Frisky Dingo ?]

Bummed out that valve didnt release a new weapon yesterday like they do with most updates? Wondering and hoping they release 2 weapons today 1 for each class....sigh doubt that will happen though.

 

[Planeswalker]

Honestly, I'm just too excited about the news for a new class update that I could care less when they tell us what's included .

That way, when I check 1000 times in a day, eventually I'll be surprised and rewarded!

 

[Poison STANG!!]

Yeah that was strange.

 

[xosniper]

ya, I hope they release a new weapon for soldier that is a backstab shield bubble. When a spy attempts any "type" of stab: back, side, face, stair, then they die instantly and cannot choose the spy class again for 8 weeks.


Sorry if it seems unfair but it's my fantasy weapon.

I thought they didn't update the blog at all on weekends, so I think we have some waiting to do. Then again, I didn't think they'd update after 9 PM either

 

[Kamon]

Yeah, their times and the lack of a weapon are kinda strange. It's been bugging me, too. I've been dying to find out what kind of new weapon I can use to blow up some Demomen with after the war's over.

 

[TheHulk]

Suicide bomber backpack ftw!!

 

[Someguyfromcrowd]

Something that makes it easier for spies to backstab them, like Boots of Slowness

 

[stacksondeck]

What times do the updates happen? I usually only have time to check late at night. :[

+200% life
-200% speed

As the backstab is instadeath, im fine with that!

 

[dormedas]

There will be updates over the weekend, this is a WAR you guys...

I want soldier to win.. demoman is OP anyways.

 

[Akisohida]

Grr. I am done with BlackMesa until this update is over. >.> I lost all fun in that map when I saw 3 demo/medic teams + a pyro/medic and a soldier/medic spawncamp. :cursing:

I have all of 57 demoman kills because they seem to be immune to crits. I have hit 5 dead on with crit rockets..only to watch them land and use two pipebombs to kill my 200 HP soldier butt. :facewall:

Ah well, I still wanna know what the weapons are. Come on, Valve!

 

[Hodgepodge]

In time.....:cursing:

uhm sorry but---isit possible that youve no clue??

if you compare soldier and demo
soldier : RL -> rockets flying straight, extrem good splash damage
SG -> its a SG so very good for defense, doenst lose dmg on range, good aiming
soldier has 200 HP
soldier takes 3 pipes to die
he can easily rocketjump and do some deathbomber action (shooting rockets from above)

demoman: -> pipes : its difficult to aim with em well, you gotta be skilled to hit with 3 in a row on the battlement, GRAVITY MAKES IT EVEN HARDER
stickis : ok damage, good for defensive camping, gravity handicap as well

demoman has only 175 HP
so 2 rockets and youre dead

so its definatly harder to play demoman then soldier
else there would be more demoman kills then soldier kills in the war OR??

Well, I think demomen can get more kills overall, but this particular matchup is hard (as I've said before).

And I don't know what everyone's complaining about, since the war started I've had more fun than I usually do in the game, and I don't play as a soldier or a demo.

 

[TomBombadil]

Its way easier for someone to come in as a soldier and be good, demoman actually takes time and skill to be good at. IMO

-200% speed would make them move backwards when trying to move forwards and vice versa, and they'd move at normal speed.

:glare:

 

[stacksondeck]

In my experience, it was easier for me to play Demo than Soldier. There is something more appealing to me about sticky bombs and whiskey than a shotgun and shovel, haha.

[Erithom]

Yeah, I thought they would at least be releasing the first weapons today, but they're probably going to wait until after the war to even start. :/

 

[Ezekiel]

I'm thinking they'll start showing the new weapons on monday, that way they can take the 3 days to show the weapons...and then everything comes out on the servers Thursday/Friday like every other major update.
