Bless free weekend.

Will probably be back on later tonight, but... after ten minutes of banging my head into a wall made of Snipers and Demomen, I just need a breather.

And, as promised:

Ohakubi's melon seems to attract my bullets somehow.

also i got 2 acheivements due to bugs: Enemy at the gates (kill someone in the first second of the round, it was about 30 seconds in when i got the kill) and the one where you kill someone with the huntsman while you are dead (I DONT HAVE THE HUNTSMAN)

From what people were saying, pyros can set friendly arrow on fire, maybe you actually did that and it counted the arrow assist to you while being a dead pyro.

Saturn · « **Reply #806 on:** May 22, 2009, 09:52:11 PM »

nah, i was sniper when it happened

i think it was because i died right as i shot someone and the lag made them die "after" i was dead

Got the Ambassador. It's a fun piece of iron, even if it doesn't do much damage.

Niku · « **Reply #809 on:** May 22, 2009, 11:06:19 PM »

Got the Huntsman while AFKing at work.

The system works!

Saturn · « **Reply #810 on:** May 23, 2009, 12:21:17 AM »

Yeah, i dont get it, the Ambassador page makes it sound really powerful, but the actual gun is kinda crummy

Malvado · « **Reply #811 on:** May 23, 2009, 07:16:18 AM »

The ambassador crit is just too weak and after the first shot it's hard to hit someone in the head. Although it used to be pretty decent when it was bugged and shot people in the head even when you missed.

If pub spies continue to be as horribly terrible as they are, I can probably stomach playing engineer still. The only real change now is there are always two spies instead of somewhere between zero and one spy.

Seriously. I keep bumping into them, seeing the outline... And they don't flee. They just stand there like I'm going to walk away and leave my equipment for them to sap.

Brentai · « **Reply #813 on:** May 23, 2009, 11:21:14 AM »

Yeah it's kind of difficult to gauge whether you need to play Spy/Sniper now because... well...

For like FIVE MINUTES on Well there was a Level 1 sentry up COMPLETELY OPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OF THE TRACKS and three each of Spies and Snipers. Someone has to account for that shit.

What was I doing? Playing Engineer, protecting my own stuff against Demomen that nobody could be arsed to kill.

patito · « **Reply #814 on:** May 23, 2009, 12:21:20 PM »

I've been playing mostly sniper since the update and I still haven't gotten the consolation prize achievement.

I had a couple of pretty epic Pyro rounds last night, wherein I would kill 3 Spies in the span of five seconds and then start going Axetinguisher hunting. "Oh, I just killed 3 Spies, surely I can turn my unprotected back to the world long enough to take the two seconds to AXE this demoman a ques

And the Dead ringer is fucking LOUD when you uncloak, making it less of a threat than you'd think

Brentai · « **Reply #817 on:** May 23, 2009, 04:31:19 PM »

People will catch onto the Ringer very quickly.

There are specific strategies to using it which make it much more effective though. Taking into account that people know that you're putting them on when you flop over immediately allows you to play some mind games.

Royal☭ · « **Reply #818 on:** May 23, 2009, 04:32:49 PM »

Actually, if you use it only after the first one or two times of being hit you might be able to fool people pretty successfully.

Brentai · « **Reply #819 on:** May 23, 2009, 04:37:27 PM »

Oh yeah, that definitely works. It's tricky to pull off but I managed to give whole groups of guys the slip by doing it. Just give them some scenario where they believe you can't possibly have survived.
