Team Fortress 2 Megatopic + Trade: SCREAM FORTRESS? MORE LIKE JUNGLE INFERNO!

[Jokey365]

so basically
you hate it because it's a good weapon...
in that case you probably also hate around 25% of all other weapons... right?

No.
I hate it because it makes Pyro easymode, and it's not as effective as different flamethrowers with a slightly altered approach.
I never said it was bad or good, you're the one dragging that stuff into the argument, expecting me to come up with twenty reasons why a flamethrower shoots fire.
You're getting worked up over my opinion, like, seriously.

I absolutely refuse to go axtinguisher on pyro. The amount of times one of those bastards has blown me up helpless, only for me to meet with a 1-hit-kill crit axe to the face infuriates me. Am I being less helpful to team? Maybe. But by God do I refuse to become one of them.

'Course, instead of getting better my usual response is to go rage-heavy. Always the easy way out.

[Freeze]

I'm not getting worked up lol.

If a weapon is easy mode that makes it easy to kill people... that is a good weapon...

[Ceist]

Apparently i'm a "noob" spy by this guy's definition because I use a dead ringer. I also use a le'tranger and a reward, so I think that i'm pretty damn well balanced. But the enforcer is just a cheap chunk of stuff.

i dont care about dead ringer or le-tranger or the reward. i use the enforcer but it's loving OP on a crit server.

God.
I never said it was bad or good.
I said I hate it.
Because it's easymode.

I'm not getting worked up lol.

You're coming up with ways to make me prove that my own opinion is wrong.
I'm sorry, I didn't realize I wasn't allowed to not like a certain weapon.

[Ceist]

my pyro loadout from start to beginning
A. Degreaser + Shotgun + Postal Pummeler/Electric Box of Doom (Powerjack)
B. Phlogistonator + Manmelter + Third-Degree
C Stock Flamethrower + Flare Gun + Volcano Fragment (ALL ABOUT THE FIRE HERE MAN
B. Assburner (Backburner) + Shotgun + Back Scratcher.

Because it's easymode.

You are playing a class with literally 2 options: wm1 or m1m2m1m2m1m2

why are you complaining about easymode?

[Treynolds416]

But airblasting does.

Is this different from knowing the map somehow? Neither takes more skill than the other to successfully accomplish

I hardly ever play Pyro.
I never said I play Pyro a lot :|

[Freeze]

Haha it's just a debate lol, at least I'm not saying THE LORDS NAME IN VAIN.
Define what you mean by easymode in general please, not just talking about degreaser.

I'm pretty sure getting timings right when something like an arrow is speeding towards you takes more skill than knowing where things are...

I thought you were talking about the airblast used to trap oppenents to axtinguish
If you're talking about airblasting projectiles, then yes that takes skill but the backburner can airblast too (phlog is complete crap, I was defending backburner mainly)

Yeah I'm talking about projeciles xD
The problem the backburner has is that if more than four things come your way you're screwed. It's a good weapon but sucks in comparison terms.

[skill4life]

does this make me a terrible human

Smart pyros that use the backburner (me) know to how avoid projectiles when possible, and to tie ammo deposits in with attack routes

[masterockets]

I always get screwed over by degreaser pyros as scout
fire then pushed up against a wall, can't shoot and instantly die, although I use PB pocket pistol so it's a given
