What are /v/s thoughts on heavy mains and why are we the best?

If you don't constantly use voice commands you are a shit Heavy.

I think it's good to have a class for the special need

>jump around corners while holding m2

Only real "advanced" skill.

The only other technique involved that I rarely see heavies performing is knowing when to bail and when to keep fighting.

>>375711687
Actually, it's knowing when to use the family business instead of the minigun

Scout = Sniper > Medic = Soldier = Demo >>>>>> Everything else

>>375711354
You heavies are always hurt but I know that is because you're taking it while holding the area. Just don't keep calling medic when you're already overhealed though, I need to heal other people as well.

>>375711354
I used to Main medic and goods heavys know when to throw sanvich. They can save a teammate

Medic main here; Good heavies are my best friends and as long as you keep an eye on my back I will be glad to pocket you and uber through nests

>valve reverted the 20% damage resistance on spun up miniguns to only apply when below 50% health
>heavy still doesn't have some sort of fun sideoption aside from fat scouting but removing the portable health kit on him is huge
>could have had an update where he gets more weapons and maybe some sort of new playstyle
>nah pyros going to get another special update and have even more crit gimmick weapons to use
I know people voted pyro because of this whole flamethrower problem, but i'm still doubting valve to actually fix it and make this whole update a waste on whats the main issue just to weasel out of it with new weapons.

>>375718608
I heard somebody say that they were going to bring the heavy update out anyway.

hey nignogs BOTH classes will get an update the poll was for the priority of it

>>375718608
>>375714676
The stock minigun, sandvich and GRU are a surprisingly dynamic and complicated loadout. You have to have really good situational awareness and map knowledge to know when it's safe to switch off the minigun or you're toast. It changes the medic + heavy combo from a parasitic one in which the heavy has nothing to offer in exchange for health and ubers into a more mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship.
I'm of the mind that if it's not broke don't fix it.

>suiciding as medic to save a heavy
trash medic

Most matches turn into each team's heavy medic pairing duking it out in the main chokepoint and never managing to kill each other while everyone else gets into small skirmishes in side routes
Then a soldier or demo gets out of a side route and kills the medic, leading to their team winning
the game's much more fun when either team doesn't have heavies

soldier main is the funnest version of tf2

ninja jumping everywhere and bombing cunts like it's hiroshima

have fun playing your slow-ass heavy weapons guy

*bombs medic latched onto enemy heavy*
''nothing personal kiddo, just needed another domination''
>laughs in burger

>>375719561
that's how dumb i am
i would do the same even for a scout

>>375719125
if heavies about to die you let him. without the medic the entire team can die a lot faster and your team would appreciate your help ore than a heavy that pushes sniper sightlines

I bet you play with a buttplug in you slut

>>375719682
I've heard others same the same thing about engineer. Why don't we just remove all the classes except scout sniper and soldier since they just slow down gameplay. Why not go one step ahead and install call of duty if you want another bland no fun allowed shoot'emup with no team dynamics or class based gameplay.

>>375720198
is a fun game, why else?

>tfw medic doesn't heal you

The fucking smug soldiers with black box + concheror + pocket medic and shitton of enemy pyros when we have 4 less players bring slight annoyance.

>>375719289

>>375722046
Just stand by him and hit e every couple of seconds (not multiples times a second)
If he's not braindead he'll catch on eventually and then crit heals will bring you up to speed and it all comes out in the wash.

>>375711354
You're alright
As long as you don't play boring ass pyro or 2000+ hours sniper

As a med main I must say Soldiers are superior. Less annoying, better with Kritz, sexier, can whip me, more versatile in general, sexier, can help me get around with Quickfix and they're sexier.

>>375722046
I make it a point to not heal any heavy who spawns and instantly starts spamming med at max HP as if he's the only person who matters in the server. Which is almost all of them. Annoying cunts.

oh please
everyone knows it's demo
unless you're a pub master ofc

>>375722414
I usually do and even when i'm sustaining a lot of damage + dealing it back with pipes and stickies or need some extra juice for blowing up sentries they're usually too stuck jerking off soldierfags like >>375722563 here

Should I pop uber to save a teammate from certain death, if I have stock medigun? Like say, I'm with a heavy and soldier, &demo but the demo that was beside me took a bad hit and is about to die to a rocket, should I quickly uber him to save him and keep the beam on him? Or save him but quickly change uber to the heavy? Or nor just pop it at all and let him die?

>>375722563
They're usually just doing that to get your attention. It's just a shorthand for "hey, I'm back"
Good heavies know that everyone needs healing, but they're the ones who make pushes.
>>375722858
The QF+soldier combo is disgustingly good, but like you say it makes it so that the med almost exclusively pockets one player over the rest of the team. It sucks that soldier scout and demo have so much mobility relative to the other classes. I wish there was a way to equalize it a bit without taking away what makes them unique and fun.

>>375713796
>keeping that giant fucking crosshair over anything
>skill
a ten year old could track with heavy

>>375723562
I'd say pop it to save demo, then play it by ear. Is the demo really good? Is the heavy carrying the team and making an important push and under fire? Who is in more danger? Is one of them low on ammo? Just got to to have to get a feel for it, but obviously the best outcome is all three of you survive the encounter and accomplish a short term goal, such as getting the next cap or a sentry nest down. Demos are important, don't sacrifice them unless you have to.

>>375720198
All I do in TF2 is play gibus scout with a furry avatar and proceed to destroy everyone in matchmaking since the level is terrible.
I collect a few tears, have a laugh for about 20 minutes, quit the game and remember that TF2 will never be what is used to be.

>>375711354
>Haha yes I'll just spam rush with this medic here and boom we won the game
The only counter is a troop of soldiers or one well played spy
