I am so tired of demos... the sound of PHOOP and BEEP BEEPS and THAT REALLY CREEPY SMILE!!!

So what if...WE HAD A DAY WITH NO DEMOS!!!! huh? huh? :P

:( ok I know....im bored, whenever i play im garunteed to get dominated by a demo in any class....

JOIN ME IN THE REBELLION BROTHERS! :w00t:

w00t :lol:
 
you just have to know what your doing......if you hear that Phoop Phoop...beep beep....get out of the area.....i mean all players have strengths and weaknesses ya know
 
What would you do without us?

Get whomped by sentries and soldiers, that's what.
 
:D I'm actually starting to get really good at Demo :D especially in Blackmesa.

Demomen are holy poop godly, in fact.

I love playing demo (it's my best class), but the more you play as a class, the more you understand the weaknesses. Most demos are extremely bad at close range, and are therefore vulnerable to scouts and pyro ambushes.

Also, most of them will just spam walls and floors with stickies. These can be easily cleared away with a heavy/medic combo, especially if the demo is a nub and doesn't bother to shoot grenades at you.

If you find yourself losing to a specific class all the time, play as that class until you understand its weaknesses so that you can exploit them :)
 
I find demo to be a very easy class to pickup depending on the map.

Dustbowl is by far the easiest map for a Demoman to dominate in on the first day you decided to play it.

However, I also believe the Demoman has a VERY high ceiling cap for skill level.

As mentioned before, there is much more to be done than spam Dustbowl on Red and I think most demos wouldn't do so well on CTF maps.

Short range for a demo is relatively easy, but until you figure out how it works it's the worst thing ever.

Strategically placing your stickies in the heat of battle is a skill that is not easily acquired and I think regular nades are even harder, and more situational, to use and master.
 
Well, I don't get killed by demoman so much so I am thinking you are doing something wrong.

It is however a helpful fact to study demomans behaviour, if you can think like the demoman, you can pretty much guess where stickies are placed so you will get no suprises. So playing demoman yourself or healing one of the top demoman can easily reveal their tactics.

However, there are people that play demoman that are hardly a threat at all, but once you put enough time in playing the demoman, you can achieve so much, they can pretty much do anything. There are a few counterclasses, like the heavy, scout, spy, pyro, but once you masted all 3 weapons they are not as much a threat for you.

Except that annoying spy, since he can critical front(back)stabs you :(
taking him out with pipes at close range really causes more damage then it is given, and if you are going into melee, you have a chance you will get a facestab. So I am still working on that part :P
 
I dislike demo's, maybe thats mainly because im not that good at them lol. But i find there a boring class. Others will disagree. ;)
 
Stop playing dustbowl OP?
Try a map where other classes have it easy...like blackmesa. :P
 
I love demo. Demo and Engi, my favorite classes, well I love spy too but I am horrible at it but I love Spy also!

Just get close to the Demo, most will panic and die.
 
stickies are REALLY annoying especially when your a pyro with the flare gun, you just cant get rid of them. But i take pleasure in knowing i can ambush them from behind and own them.
 
excellent advice, b4k3d b34ns. playing a class to discover their weaknesses is very effective. especially when you're learning to play a class (demo), you'll find you get killed more frequently, and those classes which kill you the most are often the best classes to use in an attack against, for instance, demos, if you're learning to play demoman.
 
omg yes i hate jumping of the battlements on 2 Fort and BAM head shot.
 
If there were a day without demos, the Steam forums would fill up with 'QQ Pyro is OP' threads, except with every single class
 
Demos are cool but they are just spammers
but a soilder or a spy or a sniper or a sentry can take them out no sweat :]
 
Well demos are OP
I kill them pretty easily as a scout; they're OP.
Their reload time is super long; they're OP.
Their stickies can be shot the pipes deflected; they're OP
