  1. Personally I've been doing things slightly differently as a pyro but I tend to go for burn first then airblast them into a wall so I can shotgun them at my pleasure or just airblast them so they travel a predictable path so that I can shotgun them in the face.

    I do however miss being able to really damage people with fire though.

  2. there's a couple clues, I think.

    -Hammer he smacks his project with at the end should be obvious. (either that or the arc welder)

    -There is something behind the Lvl3 Sentry at the begginning of the video. It has the same gas tank as a dispenser, but the front of the object is different and it looks like it has an attachment with a lens of some sort on the top.

    -Robotic arm blueprint behind engie at end of video.

    -somehting that looks like a welding mask with a glowy eye under the blueprint

    -also, the propane tank used in the pyro's weapons is sitting on his workbench in front of him

    is there a copy of the video with high enough definition to read what is on the soldier poster in the back?

    The poster is the propaganda competition winner just with a RED soldier instead of a BLU.

    As far as I can tell anyway.

  3. Only good spies may don the Billycock. Imitators shall be left to their beards with film.

    I have a billycock and I wear it.

    Yet I am an awful spy I get more kills with the revolver than I ever have with the knife.

    Thusly I do not think this really applies.

  4. I think it's more of a "rolling" time period, as opposed to discrete 28-day frames.

    For my part, I guard my global Backstab, Ambassador, and Sapper awards jealously. I had the global Revolver award for a while, but it's passed to someone else recently.

    I stole the Revolver award with my 3 maybe 4 days of nothing but DR revolver spy. lol

    I used to have the global award for Flaregun kills but I gave up trying to maintain it.

  5. It wasn't so bad before Valve pushed up the winner start points. 1 is where 2 used to be, and 2 skips the first hill entirely now.

    It also has an extremely high tendency for RED to win, even more-so than Goldrush (which favors RED 2:1 in the official map win stats). Heck, usually RED wins Hoodoo in the first stage.

    Valve's official stats don't cover maps that ship with the game buy aren't made by Valve. :(

    All the more reason to... not play it unless you happen to like winning more often than not and can get on RED.

  6. you know as much as I dislike Egypt I'm kinda missing it just because we seem to be playing the same maps over and over...

    I miss that random bit of variety we used to get every other week when a random custom map would wander into the rotation then disappear off for a proverbial cup of coffee only to return a few weeks later.

    I just think I'm fed up of a set list and prefer a more dynamic one also I haven't seen gorge in the last 3 days and I believe I've played Dustbowl 20 times in the last 2 :(

    edit: also Viaduct sucks.

  7. I would like to raise a point that is a mild annoyance to me and I think others too...

    er why do we lose points for Crits? I mean not just random ones I mean skill crits too like headshots, axtinguishes, backstabs I think kills with the Kritzkrieg and even the backburner and the Targe and well I don't think we should be punished for killing people with those types of crits =/

    Can we fix this?

  8. It gets slightly annoying with Pyro, since it'll go off for each tick of damage dealt by afterburn, too. Not to mention the fact that fire damages via a stream of particles, so using the flamethrower at all makes your ears bleed.

    I tried modifying the pitch/volume with the new commands, but I couldn't figure out the best way to make it noticeable-yet-subtle. Meh.

    I have it on myself and I play Pyro quite a bit... I don't really find it ear breaking but I can see why you'd think that.

    Personally I just use it to work out whether someone I've set on fire remains on fire.
