Pyromania update is done now. What do people think of the new map? I feel like it's kinda a rehash of Viaduct, and it's too short. I'm not impressed at all.

What do people think of the new weapons? I only have the carbine so far, and have yet to really test it out.

Thoughts?

[akalazou]

i havent played in a while, i don't know what's happening with my computer, sometimes, i can reach 4 fps ... so i go from 20 to 4. that's not fun at all

[Muffinman]

I've never played this game before, but saw this video and think of it every time I see this topic bumped:

Erik, you should start to play it if you are interrested in shooter games. its a 2007 game and it changed a lot since it came out and it will change again and again and again.

my favorite game since Half-Life 1 !!(which i played for 6 years, i stop because i had computer issues. i don't play it because i'm not as good as i was back in the days.

[C-Fan]

It really is a great game. It's also super fun to play with other footbaggers, especially when they're on your team. I've played with Zac Jackson, Julien, Mike Green, Mathieu, and Reilley Adamson. It's just awesome when footbagger teamwork wins a map, and then you both appear in the top 3 MVPs of points.

Also, TF2 is now free to play, so there's no cost barrier to playing.


Back to the question about the new update:

Pyrovision is interesting, but I've already stopped using it.
None of the new weapons seem broken yet. I have some concerns about the gun that can make the scout run double speed, but I haven't seen it abused yet.
The new map kinda sucks. It's like viaduct meets an intel map. Most of the sniper spots are overly obvious, and the tower at the end is ripe for minisentry spam. That said, i've been trying to get all the new map achievements.

Some recent trades I'm proud of:

Traded a Skullcutter for 2 scrap metal.
Traded a banana peel for scrap metal.
Traded a Loch N Load for a Rocket Jumper
Traded Bazaar Bargain for scrap metal, ash, and a Holy Hunter (sniper hat)

Crazy what some people will do in trades.

[C-Fan]

Most recent trade I was stoked about, mostly for dumping crates:

I traded:

3 scorched crates (which disappear in a couple weeks)
Something like 10 random crates (which I will never open, since I refuse to spend money on the game)

I received:

Vintage razorback, vintage axtinguisher
Something like 7-8 other normal weapons
"Business casual" shirt for Spy

My spy loadout now is a purple Janissary hat, a vintage camera beard, the business casual shirt, and a rage-inducing knife. Feel like a pimp.

[akalazou]

awesome !

Set new personal bests for kills as Medic (7), Scout (8 ) and Demoman (19) recently.

I got my strange detonator the same day I got my strange sniper rifle. More than any other strange I have, the detonator was really hard to level up. In the time it took me to get to 400 kills with the sniper rifle, I only got to 41 kills with the detonator. It was really frustrating. That's why I was stoked when...

...I traded my strange detonator for a strange shortstop! This is great for a few reasons. First off, I only use the Milkman set (the extra health compensates for me sucking as Scout), so I'd only want stranges in that set. I already have the strange mad milk, so between these two stranges I can always level up something playing as Scout. The other reason I'm stoked about this, is that I'm still trying to accomplish the 2004 kill achievement as Scout (I'm in the 1200s somewhere now), so now I have a strange to help motivate me to get there faster. I got more kills with the Shortstop in half a night of playing than I did in a couple of months of having the Detonator.

[akalazou]

stop sucking at scout and play with the sandman !! 110 hp is enough i used to play scout only, then i found out that soldier is pretty fun too. when i play, im trying to get as many kills as possible with my strange dansman, it now have more kills than my strange pistol, weeeeeeeeeeee

[C-Fan]

Some more recent trading wins:

Traded soda popper and scorch crate for a strange bottle and a frying pan
Traded cleaner carbine and two weps for a soldier hat (helmet without a home)
Traded gunslinger for a description tag
Traded one ash, for one scrap metal
Traded 6 ash for a strange lollichop, and strange part: demomen killed (which I put on my sticky launcher)

[C-Fan]

Never thought I'd be in this boat, but I now have more Strange weapons than I know what to do with (16!). In a weird way, I'm proud of this since I don't spend money on the game, which means I've acquired most of these through savvy trading.

[HooD]

Username is mahoody if you ever want to play. I play a couple times a week.

[C-Fan]

I couldn't find you as Mahoody for some reason. I'm Somolinos...add me.

In the good trades department, tonight I did:

frying pan for strange part critical kills, paint, description tag, and scrap metal
strange persian persuader and two crates for familiar fez

I also traded my strange overdose for a strange diamondback, which felt smart since I have a strange syringe gun and was never going to use the overdose.

[C-Fan]

Today I did the following trade:

I lost:
eternal reward
big earner
conniver's kunai

I gained:

Strange market gardener
Strange sticky launcher
