I hate to say it, but he kinda needed something. Put a demoman into a somewhat capable person's hands and they could change the game. Have an awesome demo on your team and you are leaps and bounds ahead.

That said, I still don't like it too much (though I haven't played with the new updates, so I don't know how it all fits together.)

The medic and spy updates make me happy. I don't see the need for the soldier smoke trail, however. I've heard that an overhealed spy can be seen while invisible because of the magic fairy dust.

I see that this is NOT a true upgrade like the Heavy, Medic, and Pyro. There are no Engie achievements....

So do the stickies blow up when you shoot them? That makes them a little more balanced and still useful.

And I still think that the black irish cyclops get the shaft in this world.

Yeah, when you shoot a sticky, it is destroyed.

Weezer, the teles do look different. Level 3 has a crazy hex pattern on the "spinner" and level two has rings of light radiating up from it.

I found that two lvl 3 dispensers can make a heavy almost invinsable.... almost. (Darn sniper... :()

If there were a way to make a heavy invulnerable to a snipper headshot, the game would be broken... :/

That discount this weekend was too good to pass up. I'm installing (more like downloading) TF2 right now. I'll be the n00b that has no clue what he's doing and causes his team to lose. Hope to be online tonight.

I mean come on. Singularly those groups get screwed over. All of them together leads to these kind of travesties.
