Will the Pyro ever recover from uselessness?
she's good at giving you sick burns
>>336207061
No, seeing as the game is dead.

>Implying Valve will ever get off Soldier's dick long enough to give a shit about Pyro
>there are people who don't master pyro
Awful lotta soldier mains itt
yes by removing him from the game
>>336208323
Spotted the pubshitter
>recover
that would imply pyro has ever been good
>Pyro
>Bad
Maybe if you're bad at the game.
I don't play TF2 since 2008, what is wrong with Pyro nowadays?
reminder that the REAL scrub class is engineer
>>336209383
Still no movement options
Still not enough damage
>>336209735
Objectively correct opinion checked

>tfw every structure placement you make is immediately followed by a rocket or a backstab/sap no matter how hard you try to prevent it
>>336210123
i can't see the enjoyment in paying engi
it seems so inactive and dull
>>336210264
I don't get it either.
I imagine those minecraft kids wanting to try an arena shooter, but instead of actually playing an arena shooter, they go back to their old habits and just build a basein fucking king of the hill.
Valve balances to pubs and casuals don't they?
>>336210264
its fun as fuck building shit, and having to defend yourself from everyone trying to get your sentry's blind spots
>>336210370
the thought of that makes my blood boil
i just wanna go fast
>>336209383
he requires immense amounts of skill.
walking foward while shooting off your phlogistinator at the sametime and doing nothing else talks skill
>>336210264
I just like playing Jag Engineer like I would mini-sentry engineer, just with level 1 sentries instead. People really underestimate those, and all you gotta do is put them in one killer blind spot. As long as you accept it's going to get destroyed quick, it's pretty fun.
>>336210264
My attempts at Engineer are just enraging more than anything else.
>>336210509
fair enough
i just find playing engineer and heavy boring as fuck
>>336210674
destroying mini-sentries is good fun as a sniper
but it fucks with my scout fun
>>336210735
The main thing with making Engineer fun is that you have to realize that the shotgun is baller as fuck, and that the Sentry Gun is more like a pet or summon that only exists to help you shotgun shit to death
>Main pyro since 1 year after release
>MFW almost a decade of bad pyros
>MFW people STILL don't know how to pyro
Pyro is a high death class. Some people think that means it's a low skill class. A life used wisely is never wasted, If I die pushing the uber off a bridge, i contributed a hell of alot more than the spy going 17-0.
FFS people are so bad at pyro, they had to put extinguish incentives.
>>336210264
Am I only one that set-up custom binds just for combat engie?
N takes me straight to placement for turret and M is quick-destroy for turret
>>336211505
sounds fun
im guessing you have the crit shotgun
>>336211634
It is fun.
>Get chased by heavy or demoman
>Round a corner
>Realise my sentry is sitting on a few kills
>Hit M to destroy it
>Suddenly armed with at least 5 guaranteed crits

>>336209383
Same problems that have plagued him since day one. Outranged and out-DPS'd by literally everyone. That coupled with everyone now having some kind of anti-afterburn option or another means he's even MORE useless now.
>>336211281
>People still don't realize the Homewrecker is the only melee that's not shit
>People still don't realize how good the shotgun is
>>336212127
Those weapons aren't fun tho
>>336212028
annoying as fuck
im always not sure what flare gun to use
i always end using airblast+mini crit shotgun
>>336208425
lol no
>>336212127
Homewrecker is shit
You gotta roam boi
>>336207061
>mfw some pyro who knows how to airblast suddenly thinks he can 1v1 me as soldier
>mfw I just shoot the ground or a nearby wall or pull out my shotty and two shot him
>mfw pyros get so mad they can't reflect like they normally do in their shitty pubs
>Pyro will never be useful.
Literlly useless I'll rather a phlog wm1 he might be a distraction at least then some faggot who "mains" a shit class and acts like he's hot shit doing something as easy as reflect kills. Also delete the class it's trash
>>336209227
>Pyro
>good
Maybe if you just pubstomp valve servers
>>336207190

>>336207061

>ever revert axtinguisher nerfs
Meanwhile other Strong melee unlockables like escape plan,ubersaw,gru and sandman are left untouched for years.fuck you valve
Playing Flamer Shotgun Wrecker.
>mfw a degreaser flare axetinguisher pyro near me
Literally free kills.
>>336207061
WHAT THE FUCK

Holy fuck, do people still play this game? Did Valve finally stop ruining it?
>>336212848
I use the Backburner, just so I have a way to semi-reliably kill Heavies
nothing short of a complete rework from the ground up would truly fix pyro
but that ship sailed long, long ago
Make Pyro's basic speed that of powerjack'd Pyro, make Powerjack give you more health and overheal on kill, but no faster running speed. Here, I fixed Pyro.
>>336213142
well, lmaobox premium is detected by vac as of a couple days ago
that's the biggest improvement this game has seen in years, even if valve had little to do with it (someone leaked them the source code)
