Team Fortress 2

But not too different.

Noticeably different, though. But it ain't that big a deal.

His domination lines seem a lot more subdued than some of the other classes'. I think my favorite domination lines are still the Scout's.

Was it me, or did his lines for the Spy seem just a little rapey? In a Deliverance sorta way?

What are you talking about? He sounds like the exact same VA as always.

Its like how the sniper sounds different from his 'meet the x' video, just happens to be a different tone that's all.

To the pyro: "Sorry Ma'm"
Nice.

Did I spy a Half Life reference in the heavy dominations?

^Nah, he meant a Combine Harvester, which is a type of agricultural machine.

Ah.

I think the gunslinger is a perfect mix between badass and adorable.

Oh, and how long do you think valve will let pepole use the wrangler to sentry rocket jump.

Possibly forever.

But then again, they got on that patch that made it impossible to have a level 3 mini-sentry pretty quick, so whatever.

Wait, how do you do that?

It could be done by using the wrench to upgrade your sentry to level 3, then going back to spawn or something and changing weapons to the Gunslinger. Then you could pick up your sentry and redeploy it, and you'd have a mini-sentry that shoots rockets.

But they fixed that.

Presumably by aiming down, pressing M2, jumping.

It's really so impractical that I seriously doubt it'll be nerfed. Even figuring out HOW to nerf it hurts my head, anyway.

Although its not necesarily practical ,an engie could get a sentry in an unreachable spot. Not that I'm worried.

I remember my first time as an Engie.

Got my first triple domination, rage quit, and accidentally killed an enemy Spy that was probably about to rape my sentry by randomly running around and swinging my Wrench when I was headed back to Resupply.

AH GOOD TIMES.

I had a fun moment earlier.

Was on offense, trying to take Gravelpit B. I snuck in from one side while a friendly Heavy-Medic pair came in the other. Somehow, the Heavy-Medic ended up getting wiped, and it was me, stuck in a room with a Soldier, a Scout, and a Sniper who all knew I was there. For some reason, they decided to go into melee, and that was a godsend.

Backstabbed the Soldier, almost by accident. Knifed the Sniper to death without a backstab or a facestab, and finished off the Scout the same way without taking damage. Finished capping the point myself, then cloaked and jumped out the window before the rest of RED team charged in.

Felt good, man.

Wondering: Why do Spies think hanging around the front entrance is a good idea when it's extremely active with both fighters? I know they'll get a sentry/engie kill at some point, but they usually get maimed when trying to head back to their own piece of the fort.

My brief time as a Spy included.

Relevant.

That clip is complete Character Derailment. Hasn't this taught you that Heavy would be on the bottom?

@rumetzen: And yet like three of his other dominations call him "boy".

My problem with the sentry rocketjump is that it's possible for the engineer to grab his sentry just as he's launched, and then redeploy it where he lands. If he had to build from scratch I could buy it but it's kind of cheese if he can build a 3 behind the wall where you can't get to it, then grab it while it's launching him onto the roof of Gravelpit B or whatever and immediately redeploy..

But that's just me. I'm sure they'll let it go for at least a while, see the stats and stuff and see if it's really broken or not before they decide if they need to nerf it or what.

I've tested. It's really not possible to sentry jump and pick up the sentry at the same time, and sentry jumping in general is pretty difficult and impractical.

You can, of course, sentry jump to an inaccessible location and there build a dispenser and then a sentry, but that takes very long.

I've seen videos though, of people sentry jumping and grabbing the sentry just as they fire so I know it's possible. I'm fine with the latter situation though, if you have to rebuild when you get there then it's not any more or less unbalanced than the old bit where you'd climb and build teleporters and stuff to get there.

Proof. Really, all you need is to do it hit Secondary Fire, Weaponswitch, and then Secondary Fire again in rapid succession.

Relatedly, there's this.

So, I've decided that I'm probably best as a heavy, but I'm having a tough time deciding between Sasha and Natasha. Which is better for just mindlessly gunning down enemies?
