Author Topic: SCOUT UPDATE IS A COMIN'  (Read 16820 times)

Natascha needs less slowing down :(
It's literally impossible to even move as scout when someone with Natascha is shooting you.
If you ever go heavy people always out run you when you're firing your minigun, so slowing them down gives them less chance to run away. You may think thats over powered but Jesus christ, the Soldiers rocket Damage radius is about 2 football fields large making any hits near you hurt you, demoman can easily put a ton of stickys under your feet because you're so damn slow, scouts NEED to be slowed down because they can now 3 hit kill heavys (Who "Bright" Idea was that, loving handicaps). Heavys are about the most balanced class in the game.

I expected the nail gun, am sad now. :c

Good, probably the best order anyways. I'd put Sandman as last in my opinion, but it has like 50 achievements.

I could only see the 'Monday' one on Tuesday and can't see the Tuesday one. Is something wrong?

Hell yes

'Bonk' seems a bit overpowered so it should be last

And the Force-A-Nature looks awesome :3

You have made an excellent point.


Take back what I said, but I still think Sandman shouldn't stun uber'd players.

well now you can triple jump (in a way), right? because of the super recoil?

i think it is kind of stupid, unless it flings people 50 feet in the air where they will die from falling damage, then i think it is a bit overpowered, but the 2 shots thing sort of balances it...

anybody know if it pushes back ubered? because explosions and compression blasts do.

They came last night around 9:30 EST. And the ones before were about 5:30-6:00 EST.

Apparently from the forums it is comming out 7 PM EST. Valve said the servers will be down at 1600 (4:00) PST.

I wanted to kill sentries with it too. :(

I'll bet the next update is either;
A) The download.
B) A surprise revealing the scout update is actually a spy update, and scout will be released with it too, and downloads to both.
C) Double Payload (Most likely)
D) Team Fortress 3. Haha, no that will never happen.

EDIT: It's 7 PM, whars tha update?

Server will be down at 7 PM. Never said when it will be back up. Also, cant log into steam community tab so I know it is down.

:/

As long as TF2 works, I'm fine.

Edit, because I don't want to ruin my 7:00:00 PM edit:
E) Double payload reveal.

i dont see a point in a TF3... they jsut keep updating tf2...tf classis was jsut too bad to be a game so they made a new one, right?

it will most likely be the new game mode, double payload or payload racing, or something else of the sort
