Valve has a tendency of making broken weapons more broken (Phlogistinator) and nerfing items that didn't need nerfing (Ullapool Caber). It probably will happen again.
It's 2010 all over again
>>383020476
Do we have a bingo for this update?

Ahh yes, people still play this decade old FPS shooter. What's it called again? oh yeah, Overwatch for stupid people.
>>383023020
I would fucking love a classic buff. Easily the most fun sniper to use.
>>383024002
It's such a cool concept for a gun.

Fuck off Wegee
>flamethrower that deals less damage in exchange for a slight movement speed debuff on hit
>flare gun with extra damage against buildings
>add static flames so mojo isn't a thing
Would there be a more perfect update?
>>383025109
that would be a not bad update if they did that.
>>383025109
>>flamethrower that deals less damage in exchange for a slight movement speed debuff on hit
>people already complaining about how unfun it is having your player movement taken away by the sandman but this shithead wants to add this to the arsenal
Favorite hat?
pic related.
>>383025563
>Sandman
Why do you think they're removing the stun. It's more about being helpless than just slowed around, because a stun is just extending the TTK and taking your time out of the game so someone can get their kill off a luck first hit, dingus.
>>383025814
>Why do you think they're removing the stun
Because taking away player movement and speed is unfun. Why do you want to put in a weapon that does that again?
>>383026161
>not reading was what just said
The bigger complaint would be that Pyro already has the ability to lock people down with airblasts. Curb your autism.
8 tiers need to go
>Patch notes
>removed airblast, players were complaining about the pyro having too many options
>reduced damage from scattergun, too powerful up close
>reduced heavy's health to 250, players complained they were too hard to kill
>removed ability for non-soldier classes to get uber, soldier class was too generalist. needed to be specialized in something.
>added mini-pocket. Replaces second slot weapon for soldier. Adds passive heal and personal ubercharge can be built with it. soldier class struggles on his own against three or more players.
>>383026582
I'm basing the stats of the weapon from Mei's ice blaster. Please tell me how your stats work and what the percentages would be. Meanwhile, I'm going to write a few paragraphs on why I disagree on your weapon idea.
The thing is, TF2 is based on momentum and speed. A weapon like that would disable any means of escaping once a Pyro ambushes you.
There are only 3 classes that run faster than a pyro: Scout, Medic and Spy. I cannot see a possibility of the weapon getting implemented without reducing Medic and Spy's speeds below 300 HUs, and that makes 8/9 classes not being able to run from a W+M1 pyro running straight towards them, provided that the pyro ambushed them or flanked them. If a pyro did flank them, it makes the pyro's team easier to catch up and attack the enemy's team while they're getting flames up their screen adding to the panic.
>b-but soldier can rocket jump
True. However, what I fear is that the flamethrower would also decrease the momentum of the Soldier from the rocket blast that it hinders his ability to do so, thus reaching sub-optimal distance. I'm also afraid that even the speed of the rocket jumper would not reach more than 300 HU or just be slightly over it, making the pyro capable of chasing the Soldier down.
>just shoot the pyro, it hurts less so you've got some time to do so
This argument is the one I think would have the most weight on balance of the weapon. I can't find a good argument against it other than it would pair wonderfully with the new Axtinguisher that it would become the new Puff and Sting. New Axtinguisher deals 133 damage, enough to kill 4 of the cast and severely cripple a Medic. The new Axtinguisher's downside was that it took forever to take out and that most people would be able to run away from the Pyro if they were in medium to long range of the flamethrower. The new weapon you proposed would take the Pyro really up close and personal with the victims of it since you're basically outrunning them.
>remove airblast knockback
>pyros will have to aim their shots now
>pyromains uninstall
>>383029820
seriously what the fuck is with them and airblast, everytime one of these retards attacks me they puff me and then airblast me away immediately and then start to flame me again, its always fucking airblast instead of actually burning me.

Holy shit grenades are back!
me waiting for update.
>>383020476
Half a year for an update with one new weapon and cosmetic crates as well as some number changes on weapons.
Worth the wait I'm sure
Is the Party Van server still up?

looks the the autism is still up
>more than 24 slots
NOOOOOPE
>Overwatch just had the Doomfist reveal.
>TF2 still hasn't got the pyro update.
>>383030394
Maybe if the flamethrower actually did enough damage to be effective in close range, Pyros would start using it to roast people. Right now juggling targets with airblast is practically mandatory to throw their aim off and prevent them from simply running away or out-DPSing you and then use one of the ten bajillion ways Valve added to remove afterburn that practically every class has now
>>383032643
Almost never reaches 24 anyways
>>383032957
>Maybe if the flamethrower actually did enough damage to be effective in close range
You dont need a damage buff to kill anyone in close range as a pyro unless you are a brainless f2p which just uses the w key and runs up at enemies from the front
>>383021350
I see you weren't here before the engi update
>>383033463
not even that guy but the pyro is more often than not forced to rely on a secondary weapon
>>383033803
give me examples
>>383030905
i mean its been 10 years cant you forgive them for slowing down
>>383030905
>half
its been 1 year since meet your match
>>383034065
fine but im a rush here so dont expect me to to stick around
most pyros rely on flare guns so the ambush class (pyro) wont have to to get close
scouts and other pyros are countered with shotgun variants
rarely you managed to finish off enemies with your primary due to low damage output compared to everyone else
scout outdamge you close or kite you
solly gets creative and shotgun
heavy can outgun you at range but also up close
engineer, okay granted
demoman might have a problem against pyro
snipers typicaly fuck you over from range or you use a secondary
im forgetting a few but im out of time

>tfw I know I should know better than to have any hope left that the current devs won't continue to make the game worse, but I can't stop myself since tf2 was my favorite game of all time.
>>383020476
Valve only release updates on Friday so they can't fix the game which they inevitably break until next Monday.

Opinions on this YouTuber?

>afterburn damage starts higher and goes down with each tick while total damage is the same, this makes being on fire a more time sensitive issue.
>afterburn duration and damage is now dependent on how long you've been set on fire. If you get grazed by a flamethrower you are on fire for a much shorter duration than standard, while being burnt for several seconds would cause greater afterburn damage and duration than standard.
>All items that put players out now just reduces the time a player is on fire.
Rate.
VAC ban wave going on atm

Boring gimmick videos that have been seen a million times before in other """TF2 YouTuber"""
Go shill again when it's at least not boring
