I wouldn't say that. People experimented with it after dismissing it as crap, and they found results. Really, the Vaccinator just demands a completely different style of play than the Kritzkrieg or Stock. It just asks the Medic to think on the fly more.

I'm not saying the Vaccinator doesn't have it's uses. I'm just saying that the way I typically like to design weapons is to have a purpose in mind and then decide what to have the weapon do based on fulfilling that purpose, and the Vaccinator, if it had any direction to its design, was built more around a theme than a real, defined purpose.

I make video games! Or plan to, anyway.

He's a mechanicist rather than a thematicist when it comes to designing game elements, that's all.

Well, I've been considering gettin' rid of my rustiness in Team Fortress 2 as of late, and well, I wonder what would be the best way to chisel the rust off (if anything).

Try 2Fort. Far from the best map, but there are always people there.

Gear Leader, the Madam Dixie is one of my favorite pyro hats. It looks so amazing with the Foster's Facade ^^

Also, Lance, add me on steam. I'll give you a premium upgrade this week (probably not today, unless you happen to catch me on).

Who's the coolest class?

I think the coolest class is Engineer. eh keeps his Southern-styled humor as he builds more gun and doesnt afraid of kickin' yer tail.

Obviously, the hottest class is pyro.

So, I need to share this video, because as much as I dislike Spies who constantly go for trickstabs without really caring about actual stealth, the guy at the end was just too funny. Also, at the beginning, I think they're playing on CP_Junction, which is really its own joke.

Coolest is Sniper. I don't have PSL for any of the classes, but Sniper's voice comes close.

played some more king of the hill.

dumped the Cloak and Dagger for the normal invisibility watch. knowing where the ammo is makes it possible to get really far back without dropping cloak.

Exactly. That's why I prefer the Stock over the C&D. You can technically walk across the whole map without having to stop.

Hey Lance, sorry I had to jet earlier. People were over.

Also, I love my YER, but I don't use it nearly as much as I used to. The only time I go Saharan any more is at the beginning of a round, usually stage 1 of Dustbowl, on defense, with the C+D.

I much prefer the DR, Amby and stock knife.

yeah, I'll be melting things down for scrap forever until I get the refined to make a spy hat.

That moment when you airblast some stickies only to have the Demoman that planted them detonate them on an ally.

Also, I plan to master all of the classes in the order they appear on the class selection screen with the following regime: Get 1000 kills on strange primary, get 30 points in a match, and get a decent hat.

ugh, another fucking premium server. between the invisibility watch that didn't seem to make me invisible to the enemy team, enemy setries that seemed to automatically build up to level 3 and the heavy that was permanently kritz'd just for existing, it was really fucking frustrating.

Ohgod, I saw a Sniper corpse pinned against the wall with an arrow, and it was in a spasm that looked like something out of a GMod movie.

Lance, stop by the edge-gamers servers. The only perks you get for paying are no ads and an unusual hat effect that's broken half the time so nobody uses it tongue

But seriously, no pay to win or anything of the sort, and there's usually some cool people on there.

Woo, managed to get myself a Strange Sapper! It's fun.

Also, made myself a Familiar Fez. Tried out Saharan Spy, and holy shit, it completely blocks out decloaking sounds, even the Dead Ringer! I thought it just muffled them from what I've heard. Suddenly, I realize why they made sure you had the YER equipped in order to get the set bonus. That would be severely overpowered if you could wield any other knife!

So, I got a Red Tape Recorder as a drop. Is it any good compared to the standard sapper? I suppose it would be more conducive to teamwork since it takes longer to destroy buildings and downgrades them for a further attack.
