Childhood is when you idolize gunboats. Adulthood is when you

>>376111467
I still prefer boats. For some reason I literally cannot use the shotgun effectively if I'm not an engineer, and even then, I'm not good with it. I like boats so I can shoot my feet to kill cheeky spies and scouts who run too close

I don't know how the reserve shooter is seen by the community but I feel like it's pretty great considering how many opponents I end up blasting into the air with a rocket shot.

It's quite possibly my favourite side weapon ever

Considering getting Overwatch sometime later. What are good picks for a Soldier main?

>>376114476
There isn't one, people compare soldier to Pharah but she hovers and can't rocket jump reliably and takes much less skill to master. Overwatch is a baby version of TF2 made to appeal the casuals and waifufags. Gameplay is 4/10 at best.

>>376114476
Soldier is usually supposed to help take down Pharahs, but if your team isn't supporting you (shielding you, damage boosting you, or if Zen puts an orb on her which I feel helps most.) You should be able to take out any of the flankers Reaper (stay far away from him though), Tracer, Genji, Soldier, D.Va (again stay of her range) and Winston.

Soldier is often a target so don't be afraid to use the sprint if you're ambushed by multiple people. You should probably be able to 1v1 just about everyone if you're careful to stay out of range and use that healing beacon. Also, just use that beacon. Heal teammates and yourself and practically just keep it on cooldown.

While, being out in the open will allow you to more reliably hit stuff, try to stay behind a shield or at least keep some kind of buffer between you and the enemies.

Side note: Your first three shots will be right down the center then spread starts. Just tapping the button no longer helps that, so let it spread a bit, then stop and you can get those reliable three shots again.

>>376118343
>getting killed by heavies
lmao how bad are you

>>376118397
I believe the scattergun does more damage point blank but less at range, and vice versa, but barely noticeable

>>376118458
what're you gonna do hotshot, hit him with your shovel

>>376118317
Even if they un-nerfed axtinguisher tomorrow I still wouldn't replace powerjack, speed is way to valuable to give up for a weapon that's only really needed against heavies and demoknights

>>376118397
Actually no, the scattergun has higher point-blank damage.

Look up "damage ramp-up." Not every weapon in TF2 has the same damage fall-off. Some do disproportionately more damage up close (like Scout's scatterguns), some do disproportionately little damage (like rocket launchers.)

You think they'll ever unfuck the righteous bison? I wish they'd return the piercing effect for the Pomson as well, but remove the uber/cloak sapping effect in exchange, I don't think anyone uses the pomson for draining spies and medics anyway

who sandman + guillotine here?

>>376118674
What did they do to the Bison? That was my favorite Engineer weapon.

>>376118241

lol

How does it feel being a shit soldier?

Any conch faggots here? You can easily farm 480 damage from retard pubbers then boost for days.

>>376118581
The RS was never not better than the axtinguisher for easy kills on trapped enemies

>>376118397
>>376118470
Scatter gun has better ramp up at close range (175% vs 150% of shotgun) and different reload intervals (with reloading first shot at .76 of a second vs 1 sec of shotgun). Shotgun reloads consecutive rounds faster and the damage beyond close range is the same for both. Scattergun also does more maximum mini crit damage

It's quite a bit better

>>376118806
I think you're a little confused dude, the bison is the solider's laser pistol, and they crippled the speed and hitbox of the projectile, plus they pretty much gutted the piercing effect, claiming it was a bug when it was a fucking tool tip for YEARS.

The pomson has been really not great ever since the pierce effect was removed, it also has a tiny hitbox.

>>376122462
Having played TF2 a lot. I admit that it takes skill to be good at, I only really competed in Steel UGC, but I was still pretty decent at it. I just hated that Comp took out random shotgun spread and random crits because they were my favorite part of the game and I just wanted to play Highlander without these dumb rules that make Scout and Engie way too powerful when they knew exactly how their spread would move. I got sick of only having cosmetic updates. I made it a point to collect one of every weapon (I didn't care about reskins) and unless more recent patches changed some (I believe Darwin's Danger Shield is different from what I remember) But after three years with no new weapons (plus I stopped playing it daily when Evolve came out and went back when it died) I decided to go for Overwatch because it was basically TF2 but with more diversity in weapons and characters, but shittier maps. I love cp_Steel; it's my favorite map of any game ever.

People complain that all the characters are OP and "too easy" to play, but fact of the matter is that if you think it's casual you haven't played long enough. There are many nuisances to skill, placement, weapon/ability use, and just understanding how team composition works which is more difficult than TF2's simply because of the size of the rosters. Also, because if you were playing Highlander you never even needed to worry about your team comp.

>>376127643
Half of which are banned in competitive. Plus, the weapons (aside from the clusterfuck that is Demo's items) are mostly just slight variations of weapons you're already using. Which can be nice. I actually liked the Iron Bomber more than stock grenade launcher, but it's not like a totally unique and changed weapon. Also, any weapon that's downside is "no random crits" is pretty much going to be the only melees used in comp because no one has crits there so that weapon has no downside now.

>>376128268

Well, at the range that Demo is force t pull out his melee weapon hitting people with the skullcutter extra damage and range aint that hard.

Pain train is pretty good tho

former TF2 pros who are now pros in Overwatch agree that Overwatch takes much less skill, especially in regards to movement.

I find pistol to be much more effective at aiding the pyro as engineer.

Engie used to have (i don't know if he still has, haven't played in years) like ~200 reserve ammo and the reload for the pistol took no time.
You could literally run around carefree shooting at everything that moves

>>376128678
>especially in regards to movement
Well, yeah no doubt. The only skill in movement that isn't in Overwatch is proper rocket jumping and sticky jumping (which kind of is in Overwatch, but I'll agree it's got much less movement skill). The maps play a big part too. TF2 had well crafted levels that were often tailored around the classes but, with Overwatch's maps it's much more difficult to build a map around the ever expanding cast.

Last note: Needing skill does not equal fun.

Q to people playing the game.

Did highlander get more popular after the competetive update?
I always found it more fun than regular 6v6 matches but for some reason it always appeared as less popular option.

>>376131296
>Needing skill does not equal fun
True. However, higher skill ceiling does directly translate to game's longevity.

>>376131570
It's more like 6 v 6 was just more popular because it's easier to organize a team of 6 than it is 9.

TF2 naturally leans towards matches of 12 vs 12, while most other FPSs(e.g. COD) go for 5 vs 5 or 6 vs 6, with larger teams being more of a novelty game mode than the standard.

it adds a random element perfectly suited game created with casual gameplay in mind and where competetive mode/gameplay was added as an afterthought or by the community.

and by definition they're random, which means you have no control over it therefore it's fair.

Well, quasi-random, They're almost like the killstreaks of TF2 since the crit probability is dependent on the damage being done in the past 20 seconds. To kind of even the odds of someone going from skirmish to skirmish against someone who just came from spawn/a dispenser.

>>376136427
Wow, you're so out of arguments that you have to make up your own meta just to win. Implying I give a fuck about competitive play.

Post loadouts for soldiers

>>376137602
Soldier is the best class and the most fun you can have on TF2.

What is the best loadout for an aggressive Engineer?

>>376137715
Stock shotty, short circuit and gunslinger.

>>376137715

Battle anything is a cancer that plagues TF2.

>>376137715

Widowmaker
Short Circuit/Pistol
And Mini

I haven't played tf2 in about five years. Sometimes I wonder how much useless cosmetic trash I would accumulated if I had kept playing all this time.

>>376137715
If on anything other than payload just use stock and gunslinger

Honestly on payload I find the Jag to be way more fun and effective

I think people just hate getting killed by Pyros, I hope the update for him makes his flamethrower not a garden hose damage wise.

>>376136057
defend them from what? asspained esports babbies saying they're "not competitive"?

>>376116670
True

>>376113040
Nigger, the Gunboats don't reduce damage to you if an enemy took damage from the rocket. You are literally not getting any benefit from having them equipped in that situation.

>>376138636
You are a retard anyway if you let a Pyro get close enough that he can flame you, airblast you and shoot your face off. It's the only weapon keeping Pyro from being a complete non-factor in any situation other than being an Engie's lap dog.

>>376138653
Play watergate when school is out.

>>376133239
invisible walls were a mistake

>>376139847

>>376138653
Play more Medic.

>>376139939
Yeah, unlike most players on watergate.

I want to use the shotgun with soldier, but I have to use the concheror because nobody plays medic

>sniper isn't his least used class by a huge margin

>>376140098
Sniper at least has huntsman as a goof around weapon, spy should be your least played class

>not most after scout

>>376140098
unfortunately, my least played is engineer

>>376139759
not him but pyro shouldn't have the ability to completely destroy a players mobility by just looking in his general direction and pressing M2

>>376140098
that would be heavy. I dont know how anyone but an ex consolefag can enjoy him

The only thing Overwatch is better at is getting people to play other games out of boredom.

>>376140540
this might be a hard concept to wrap you head around but walking fucking backwards completely counters a w+m1/m2 pyro retard

>>376132535
People use the direct hit?

>>376140639
because its too effective while also taking no effort to do. how is it fair that a soldier who is very good at rocket jumping can just get shoved to the side by a retard pressing mouse 2?
>>376140818
>walking fucking backwards completely counters a w+m1/m2 pyro retard
never said it was hard to fight a pyro, you retard.

>>376138653
I think the stat screen keeps track of points in a single life

>>376114367
wow youre so mature and pseudo-intellectual, really make me think

>>376141246
9/10 times a soldier is rocket jumping and a pyro is near by the result is either:
Soldier shoots the ground quicker than pyro can airblast him, soldier goes flying away,pyro hurt
Pyro is too late to airblast, soldier is gone, pyro is hurt
Soldier is airblasted straight up, soldier looks down to shoot pyro

>>376141246
you get ambushed by a close range high damage class, and instead of killing you they fuck about airblasting for no reason and you're complaining

>>376141246
>getting hit by a flamethrower when you can just backpedal

>>376141439
i'm complaining about how a pyro can completely destroy a players momentum while jumping with little to no effort

>>376141845
and this bothers you more than a soldier shooting rockets at the ground and killing everything with no effort

>>376137715
Shotgun, Pistol, Gunslinger/Jag

>>376141246
>because its too effective while also taking no effort to do.
by that logic removing spy would be a much saner choice than nerfing pyro even further.

walking behind someone and stabbing them in the back takes even less effort.
With pyro you don't have cloak nor disguise to help you.

Pyro is already a severely underpowered class as-is and the only scenario where it is effective is catching people off guard.
Any skilled dps class will dominate a skilled pyro.
Your only chance of having fun as pyro is pubstomping, which sucks when you're on the receiving team.

Why does this happen literally every other game? I thought the matchmaking could balance teams depending on the player's levels

>>376142409
it's not

>>376122329
>>376127816
This

>>376142545
how is it not?

>>376142674
you've failed to explain what's so bad about being airblasted when there are alternatives like dying, and why it's so bad to be pushed away from a very short range class

>>376142828
dying has nothing to do with it. the point i've made multiple times is that a pyro can destroy all of a player's momentum by pressing a single button.

>>376143205
>momentum

are you playing quake or tribes or something

>overwatch devs wont balance properly and instead just tell people to switch to a counter

>>376142502
I have 1000+ hours and TF2 and I could stomp on 90% of the people playing casual, but I barely play it. Medals don't mean shit

>>376143650
They never said it was op, they meant it's annoying. If a person jumps the opposite direction and a pyro manages to airblast them their jump away is negated even though the airblast pushed them the same direction they were flying. And for the record, they never denied that the soldier was easy.

>>376143650
No it's just a fantasy
