latest tf2 update. shit is bizarre
Don't see the problem. Not like the game hasn't been filled with ridiculous shit that makes no sense for years now. I stopped playing after the Spy/Sniper update that added Jarate.
>Been trying to save up some money to upgrade my CPU so I can actually play TF2 again for half a year now
>All these updates have me asking myself why I want to play tf2 againWhat's the cheapest CPU I can get that can run TF2 consistently well?

Is this real? Saw there was an update earlier but I've been dodging TF2 like the plague for a long time.
>>320552989
Why Valve? Why? Why make the most annoying character in the game more of a pain to deal with?
call me when extingushing a teammate gives the pyro a guarenteed minicrit
>>320554896
Probably because Pyro is the shittiest class in the game and has been for ages.
>>320555154
Pyro might be the shittiest class but Valve has to know their playerbase is full of the shittiest people. Like how spies get shit on by literally anyone who isn't drooling out of their mouth.
>>320552989
its a reward system for doing right things like "healing/uber" Volvo want to teach noobs do right things using this, i think
>>320555416
I didn't think of that, that's pretty good. Maybe in the next update, extinguishing someone will force you to change to a better class.
Given how they murdered combos using the degreaser/axetinguisher, I think it's plenty fair.
>Airblasted Projectiles deal 75% bonus damage and past medium range become Critical and no longer harm Pyro
>Extinguishing 2 allies within 30 provides a 3 second Uber charge, ramping up to 12 seconds if 6 or more extinguishes are triggered within 160 seconds
>160 seconds
Might be typo or hilariously overpowered.

Guard dog style defensive pyro is the SHIT tho man. Makes playing medic actually fun having the lil guy defend you from shit. And don't even get me started on pybro and friendgineer combos!
>>320557141
pyro supporting engineer / a friendly encampment (airblasting ubers and stickies / projectiles and spy checking) is the only good use of pyro
Literally a non-issue.
This is a way to get pyros to be better team players. If anything, it's a good thing.
>>320552989
>They still wont fucking do it
Glad i stopped playing
>>320557141
I never enjoyed the "guard dog" style of the Pyro/Engineer dynamic. If I was aware we had an Engineer, I'd mostly use him as bait to flank tunnelvisioned enemies, fixing his shit up if he got wrecked.
haha I get it
>Axtinguisher
Properties changed
100% Chance to crit against burning targets
33% Damage penalty
20% Slower attack speed
75% Slower switch-to speed
>Charging now removes debuffs from the Demoknight (Bleed, Fire, Mad Milk, Jarate)
What the hell, volvo.
>mfw these fucking balances
>tfw Mad Milk Scout main
Noice. It's abetting my scrubiness, but I'll take it
It gives an incentive to extinguish teamates. What's wrong with that?

Pyro has always been the shittiest class and valve just made sure it always will be by nerfing the only things that gave it a chance compared to other classes and buffing W+M1 phlog shitters.
>Go on server to do new contracts
>Literally 5 Phlogs on each team
Nice "Nerf" Valve
>implying pyro isn't best class
>>320560432
>buffing W+M1 phlog shitters
>Removed 10% damage penalty. When activating 'MMMPH', the taunting Pyro gains temporary invulnerability and immunity to knockback effects
not gonna lie, I was pretty surprised they buffed phlog again like that. It was bad enough when you had a chance to kill them before they got the crits.
They need to reduce the knockback effect of his airblast, that shit has always been bullshit.
>>320561197
They did, you fool

Let them circlejerk in peace.
They obviously think the way they do because they regularly get their asses lit.
