[PhatoseAlpha]

Oh jeeze. It's really like Valve is trying to render the game unplayable.

Scared of change much? looks like fun, AND I bet its super easy to hs them with a sniper rifle ect. Scout lives because he can run, and it seems to me he will be stationary for quite sometime while using this. Plus no double jump. Really no different than airblast too imo.

Sweet! Can hardly wait.

Been playing the Scout a bit more recently and loving it.

I'm sure it would be real easy to HS the scout if he were going to be doing this somewhere the sniper could even get an angle on him. But the whole point of having the uber is to go in places where you don't have easy shots - there ain't gonna be no sniper to HS him, cause the sniper ain't going in where all the sentries are going to be.

And yes, it's very similiar to the airblast, which has already pushed the game further in the direction of defense. We don't need anything else keeping sentry nests safe from ubers.

It'll be the same as with any other update, for the first 2 weeks, everyone will play as the scout then it will die off. Not too many people even play scout at all, especially when on defense.

It's nice to see Valve making more defenses against TEH ALLMIGHTI UBERZ!! Maybe a Scout and Pyro can team up against an ubered pair. The Scout can knock the ball on the Medic, then the Pyro can airblast the Heavy/Soldier/Demoman away from the Medic, breaking the pair. Or vice versa, whatever.

this is true but when updates come out more ppl will play especially over time

Sandman or not give me Sasha and I'll calm down any Scout trying to play baseball on my way.

So, should it be implied that the Scout is getting 6 updates based on that website? Or are they giving two characters 3 updates each?

They are also adding another game mode I think but he has 3 weapons so each of the 3 can be upgraded. Also I have a question can you be VAC banned for achievement hacks? only answer if you know

 

[coreyb]

no you cannot. its non-detectable from what i've seen.

 

[coreyb]

I thought they did catch a bunch of people and reset their achievements.

Maybe one update is for the new achievements and the others are for new maps?

 

[coreyb]

Not sure about that, I'm only speaking from personal experience. I've used the hack since the first updates came out.

There's probably more than one. When they originally released the first batch, there was a console command that gave the achievements. Valve put a stop to that one. Personally, I don't care, it takes me around three days of regular play to get 2/3 weapons via achievements.

Keep in mind one thing, you will destroy your stats

my pyro has like 721 kills being my best..

its quite annoying because i decided i wanted to go legit later

you can reset your achievements, but you cant reset your other stats
