Team Fortress 2. No.. really.

Considering one of my achievements seems bugged or something I may need to resort to that. :/

Granted it'll probably just get reset... they detected everyone who did that /unlockall command so I don't see how they couldn't detect this.

Maybe with all this cheating they'll realize to not make the next batch so retarded. I'm all for "heal X points" or "kill X enemies", but don't make a bunch of random shit where it's based solely on luck (or finding a group of friends to cheat with). Progression is fun... not random luck.

Demo, spy, and engy are the 3 I'm really, really looking forward too. And, amazingly enough, the classes I'm playing the most right now.

If you were a shitty medic before, you will still be a shitty medic. If you weren't, they're a nice bonus - at least two of them, healgun is a weird alternative.

The healgun is actually quite nice. Once I got it, I switched and have never looked back. I'm now able to take out people who are attacking me, whereas previously I could usually only kill people who were low on health. Think about it this way: Each round has 40 syringes and you get 3 points of health on each hit. If you hit each time, you've nearly fully healed yourself (120 health with a max of 125). It can definitely be very handy when you don't have anyone around to protect you.

I'm talking about the Kritzkrieg.

Spy's knife upgrade should be throwing knife. Hehe ;D

or one that backstabs thru ubers.

[Cybsled]

Or longer range backstab so you don't fucking miss because they are 1.1 feet away instead of 1 foot.

Not being critical of you at all, but I don't get that. I consider Demo to be the 2nd-3rd easiest class to play. I think Hatorade has the right of it... once you get used to the idea that Stickies = main weapon, you will do much better. If you are just trying to get big scores, play Demo on Warpath, Goldrush or Demobowl and sticky/spam like crazy.

To someone new, I would also suggest playing on insta-spawn servers. Much less frustration while you learn the classes and the maps.

Spy, OTOH, is a bitch against a decent team. The braindead decision to have all Spies show at half health makes it even worse. Though i prefer Sniper and Engineer, I really think Spy should be up next as they could use some love.

don't play too much these days, but TF2 is the only game I'm playing at all right now, so I'm still looking for a decent server, so if anyone has suggestions, lmk.

The Doorman servers are pretty cool, though I think most are insta-spawn and you can get kicked due to reserved spots.

Or longer range backstab so you don't fucking miss because they are 1.1 feet away instead of 1 foot.

My favorite is going through the animation, having the "stab" sound go off, and still missing.

Yeah, don't get me started on that. Not leaving in armor was a bad move. It not only gave a penalty for spamming the shit out of your own team, it gave Engineers a "medicy" role (Engies could fix armor with metal.)

The achievements will keep me locked into TF2 for a while when the other classes' start coming out. A criticism I have is that I hope they release multiple classes at a time now, because the first few days after the Medic stuff rolled out half of a team would be medics.

I like the fact that the Kritz at least is highly situational...something I hope the other achievements are too so they aren't "must haves".

And for the little girls crying about adding depth to a game to stop the numbing repetitiveness, go blow your neighbors cat...maybe it will be a little more rewarding for you.

[Amzin]

I love having new gear to use, and situational stuff like the kritzkreig. But making them so hard to unlock was a bad idea. This is an FPS, not MMORPG. I don't want to have to play medic for 200 hours to gain access to a gameplay element just because I'm not in a clan.

They should change the unlocking system a bit. Make it so that you've unlocked all the gear by the time you hit 50% of the classes achievements, and the last 50% can be new shiny things or something, just visual stuff.

P.S. Fuck non-kreitzkreig crits, still.

[cdyhybrid]

Yea, seriously, using a cruber on a soldier is a waste, half their rockets are crits anyway.

I dunno, an every-critting soldier is a big fucking steamroller.
