Team Fortress 2

Gotta be careful about Minies, but unless the engineer has an incredible advantage to play around with, you can avoid them, or fall back and pick a better time to hit the engie, aided by some friends.

That is the greatest disadvantage of the engineer: his greatest firepower is static and cannot move.

A lot of the reason I like the gun whose name I can't remember that teleports things into your hand.

Rescue Ranger?

I've got a strange one... it's kind of... Strange.

Ninjaneering with it is fun. And the fact you can use it to repair.

It is probably the best gun to use.

Personally, I do not use it because I find myself at the frontlines, or defending against spies very often.

My loadout uses widowmaker because I use it to print metal.

Is all that metal really necessary?

More metal is ALWAYS necessary.

Like Pylons, Overlords, or Dakka, you can never have enough metal.

Widowmaker is my weapon of choice. As long as you don't miss, you never have to reload, which is a huge benefit.

Maybe I should try it out sometime.

You never reload it at all. If you miss you run out of ammo.

Well, technically picking up more metal would be "reloading", since you're loading metal in.

But yeah, never having to reload, and only running out of ammo if you can't aim, make it pretty effective.

A charming little video about rocket jumping.

That has some seriously impressive rocket jumping. The Hightower bit, wow.

I still need to learn to rocket jump in directions other than "up."

I can't even rocket jump up half the time, I get a little bunny hop at best.

^^^^ Damn, that's a great video. Also giving shoutouts to some jumpers in-story. That was really well done.

^ Just so you know, bunny hopping has a different use in TF 2. It's a part of strafe jumping to increase speed.

My favourite jump movie has to be Freedom. But there's lots of good ones out there.

That was fantastic. The only part I thought was animated kind of weirdly was where the BLU scout was shaking the dead Engineer's arm. Other than that, that animation was five-star work.

Becoming the Mask has never been so literal.

That was really good.

What do you guys think of the Classic? Is it good for someone who isn't good at sniping?

It's a decent weapon for offensive Snipers, particularly those that fight in areas where there aren't any good nests and thus need to be able to anticipate incoming attacks.

Guys, I need a name for a festive rocket launcher. I can't think of any.
