you don't use the FAN to kill people
you use the FAN because you think it's awesome to go from the floor of Turbine to the upper balconies without using the stairs

Last night (because I am still playing this game for some goddam reason), I snuck up on a fully-healed Heavy, shot him twice point-blank with the FAN, and after he was done being pushed out of my melee range he turned around and killed me.

Minutes later, I snuck up on a (possibly the same) Heavy with full health, shot him point-blank three times with the scoot, and he died without much fuss.

I guess I'm not pro enough to want to use the FAN exclusively yet.

The mistake here was being anywhere in range or LoS of the Heavy after he was done being pushed back. Even if you were just holding S like some sort of slow backpeddler after you connected with the FAN shots you ought to have ended up out of Sasha's easy kill range.

Unless the Heavy has low mouse sensitivity or is distracted with putting down fire somewhere else, a Scout has no business being in anything resembling melee range with a spun-up Heavy.

On defense. During overtime. Running as fast as my fat little legs will carry me to the point, only to see it captured just before my gun finishes spinning up, and then dying without killing even a single lowly burning Scout. Several times in a single round.

This happened. It happened four out of five points on Steel. Captured during overtime. In only one case was I not there to shoot ineffectually at them, and that's because I was dead - and I was following someone else who did the same thing as a Pyro.

If it happens once it's tense and dramatic. If it happens four fucking times then I don't know what the fuck.

I think Bongo only remember that vividly becaase he couldn't kill the scouts.

Misha · « **Reply #228 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:08:03 PM »

steel can get REALLY fucking frustrating on defense. 20 second respawn plus having to sometimes navigate a fair distance to get to the action is not fun.

Stop dying so much, Dier?

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #230 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:13:17 PM »

How do you suggest I avoid showing up literally the same second that the point gets captured by a swarm of tiny cowards that never posed a credible threat until after the timer ran out?

James Edward Smith · « **Reply #231 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:16:51 PM »

Not die right before the round ends, Dier?

Heh, it's like deja vu all over again!

yyler · « **Reply #232 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:18:11 PM »

If it's overtime, and the point is being capped, don't spawn as a slow class.

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #233 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:25:48 PM »

That just means that they'll kill me before they capture it, rather than after.

Why you think I am playing the class with 300 HP?

Kazz · « **Reply #234 on:** June 30, 2009, 08:26:02 PM »

If it's down to Point E, don't spawn as Engineer unless you already have buildings up.

Okay, then they're right. Quit being bad.

Is BongoBill upset about something in TF2 again?

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #238 on:** June 30, 2009, 10:16:35 PM »

Just a bad round, is all.

Multiple times, I will be clicking the button as a sniper - I will hear the start of the "fire" sound effect - and then I drop dead.

So aggrivating, because 9 times out of 10, it's a beautiful shot. Through the heavy, right into the medic. Or right at that spy who's about to sap.
