Have yet to meet anyone with any of the new weapons that can consistently defeat me and my default weapons on Solly or Scout, so *shrugs*.
As for the notifications, as others have said you can turn those off.
I'm personally completely lag free so I can't help you there, try defragmenting your hard drive and closing other non essential processes.
Oh, and the compensation you got for paying for the game was being able to play it 2 years before everyone else (more or less depending on the person).

This. I don't get why every is so unhappy about it being free. No new players are joining and we have played it for 3 and a half years more than them. It's nice to see new people and have the crazy awesome support this game has.

sad to hear youll stop playing. but you can easily win against all the new weapons 
sure the demos are annoying. but i know you play pyro so just airblast and axe them. still works. and yea the heavies are annoying with their no spin-up time. but they are still beatable.

Forget "+1," this gets a +2.
I only have a little bit of lag on Valve Maps because it's the way the server runs sometimes.
You can turn the notifications off, and other than having to press B once every few rounds it really doesn't bother me.
Kevi is 100% right about the compensation. I bought this game for $10.00 at Best Buy last summer, and the year of fun that it's provided me was well worth the money.
Also, the new weapons aren't OP. Sure, it takes, like, 20 grenades to kill a Demoman with the new set (*exaggeration*), but you can still kill him. The Tomislav isn't very good in my opinion...silent spin up time? I was getting wrecked by stealth heavies way before this update! And the new launcher is only OP in very small spaces where spam can win over skill. That being said, if you're a decent and smart player who knows how to approach attacking enemies with certain items you won't have a problem. I mean, these new weapons can't make people play that much better...I haven't had a problem topping the charts since I was a noob a few months ago.
i lol'd.
Hes right, it never was overpowered in the first place. No matter what weapon a heavies using, if you get caught within close-mid range with one, your more than likely going to die. Like Dalsia said, heavies have been sneaking up on me WAY before this weapon even came into existence. The Tomislav just makes this tactic a little bit easier to pull off.
I didn't use the Tomislav before it was "nerfed" so I can't say how op'd it really was. I do think that it doesn't matter about the weapon for the heavy. It is the heavy that is op'd imo (at close/mid range with a medic mind you). This is adding to what Dal and Sup said basically.
Lag can cause the greatest of rages. Once Thereven gets the lag problem solved (or Valve) all the other things making him mad won't be that big a deal I think.
Use this time as a small break rev, it will be refreshing.

It has a negative. Complete lack of a ranged weapon. A good sniper should be able to get rid of any demoman who has the new set.
Agree! I had to be careful of Snipers and all the guns a Heavy uses. The one point I think part of the set is a bit OP is when you pick up a weapon that a kill drops it almost heals full health like the Half-Zatoichi does upon kill this would allow me to charge in a crowd and commence chopping of body parts and picking up their weapons for health proceed with more chopping and walk away from the carnage. Now that does not work all the time but quite often it would.

This this this , damn is so easy to kill demo with soldier if you're facing it , just make him jump with your rocket and then spam him , or just shotgun him, heavy is a little hard but if the heavies dont have skill , they can have a minigun with 100% more damage and still the player with more skill will win

CRY SOME MOAR!
All silliness aside, I have not run into any problem with the new weapons. They are powerful, sure but a heavy is still a heavy, and the ways to answer them is still the same. As for the new demo set, it's good, but (as it has been said before) long distance warfare will murder them any day of the week. You just need to play correctly and make it so the demo man doesn't get in melee range (like staying on higher ground, or placing yourself on a different path that they can't charge to, or being a sniper).
Also, I am pretty sure everything is OP against the 1.5 million new players running around.
