Soooo... The Engineer Update (For TF2)

[The Paradigm]

Thoughts? Hopes?
Found anything yet?

To me, the new items are cool, but i feel that they may need to balance the Gunslinger.

 

[Pegghead]

I'm looking forward to it, but let's be honest

The new maps look cool. Though everyone will be playing engineer this following week...

I like to play TF2, but I don't play it often, and with all the character updates, I have no idea what does what, how to craft shit, or barley how to use W+M1 on a Pyro anymore. But I play it for fun, and that's what I get out of it.

In before they rebalance every single weapon

 

[sgtshock]

Loving it so far. Only got the first two weapons, but the wrangler looks fun as hell.

I'm looking forward to it, but let's be honest

-video-

Yeah, but that's the fun of it. Sure, it's stalemate central, but it's still a fun novelty, and if it really bothers you, just wait a week or two and it'll be back to normal.

You wanna know what I call this update at the moment? Sapfest 2010.

Which is exactly why I won't be playing it for a while. I still have nightmares of the Heavy update... that day, the servers were so busy I couldn't even open the game... when I did get in, there were entire teams made up entirely of Heavies... the sight of watching five of them running in a row down a ramp towards the cart in a payload map... it was too much for me.

I think the gunslinger is good as-is sentry take long too build so a smaller sentry at a lower price is a good solution

spy sappin, mah update

 

[tombman888]

I can't play it yet because i went over my internet quota. Now everything is taking 20X to update. well, on the bright side, it resets in 2 days.

The gunslinger looks cool, and the new shotguns crit ability sounds alright. but i can see me using it's overpoweredness. on dustbowel, i got 50 kills with a sentry. whats that, 100 criticals! (probably die before i use them all)

hehe, i can see it happening now
*thinks about 10 engineers simultaneously saying "spy sapping my *insert building here*"

 

[Mister Awesome]

the new weapons are pretty awesome, and what people say about engineers spamming sentry guns everywhere is true. it is happening everywhere, but it should all blow over in a few days

 

[AlphaOmega]

It will be glorious

Seriously, Frontier Justice and a Power Fist, heck yeah.

 

[WaNNaBJusTLiKeU]

Just crafted the new Wrench. I'm just enjoying destroying the mass amounts of sentries that are in every game at the moment. Can't wait for it to die down tbh.

Kind of disappointed to be honest. I thought they would come up with something creative. Or at least something different in regards to the Dispenser and Teleporter.

They tried replacements for the dispenser and teleporter but it didn?t work out in play tests.
They replaced the teleported and it slowed down the game and made stalemates more likely, getting rid of the dispenser did something else rather unfavourable.
