Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (> 3 Months ago)

Jarate (pee bottle) is awesome, but still want to unlock don't know the name, i see some snipers with some kind armor anti spy on their back? Looks cool.
Pyro has been cool to take a break from sniper, new unlocks for it really fun.
I like new unlock system. It's not perfect, and just angers me sometimes, but i started to get unlocks! Before was crazy servers with achievments whores and such, now it's just some *idle* servers :P
They need just need to fix we unlocking the same unlocks. I already got like 3 of the same guns for medic, spy, 3 axes to pyro etc.... Make some kind of trade system don't know, because it's worthless have the same unlocks over and over....
It's a cool game. Got it since last year with orange box, but never got to play it seriously. It's been really fun.
And they want you to have duplicate items, because there is a trade system coming, it just wasn't included in this update. Has anyone received any head gear yet? Do they actually do anything? I've only seen a Scout running around with a baseball helmet so far... I guess head drops are rare?
Hats i hear are VERY rare, and i don't think they do anything. Just a cosmetic change... I didn't see anyone with a hat unlocked so far.
Can't wait for the trading system...

Apparently Pyros are for noobs too. I guess Scout is the only offense class you could possibly dominate with and not get bitched at by the crybabies getting their asses kicked. Or would they cry about that too?
All I know is that I love setting people the fuck on fire.
I just love running up behind the enemy team and lighting them up and seeing confusion and panic set in when they start running and gunning in every direction!
I must say I do also enjoy playing as a pyro. They only problem is that he doesn't have a gun, just the launcher which can be a bit slow...

Pyro FTW though. I can't stand how much people cry about Pyros and Soldiers though.. or heavies and dets for that matter. It's like no matter what class you chose people have something to say about it. Earlier tonight I heard, "The late Neo Bogard has killed [so and so], that must be a hard class!"
At least it was a sniper calling me out this time, and not an equally scrubby kit.
This game owns so hard.
Unlocking stuff is a pain in the arse though, i just leave it afk in servers all the time, i dont have the time available to sit there and play it, especially with this random system theyve put in. Still aint unlocked half the spy stuff.
Got all the sniper stuff though and plenty of duplicates.
I love playing as spy and backstap snipers (Uruk especially!). Some levels like dustbowl and fastlane are awesome to play as spy! I kinda think that shield for sniper is useless. You can see him using it so I just use the gun.. 3 hits or so and sniper dies and mostly players doesn't even try to move. When I get the better gun it's even easier!
Pyro is indeed good. I kinda think he might be the most deadly character in the game. Now I just want to try out other characters too! Then again I haven't even tried the new pyro weapons out yet..
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2
I'm certain the Pyro is the most deadly class for me. Soldier is a close second. People don't seem to cry about Engi's.. who are a terrible combat class and all of their kills come from deployables! You don't have to do shit!
Spy is fucking sweet too though. I'm getting a little better with him. I still am not sure if I prefer Dead Ringer over the default watch. It's a lot trickier to use... but it's definitely not bad in the hands of a skilled spy!
I never played TFC.. but this is quickly becoming one of my favorite FPS period. Battlefield and Call of Duty have some competition! I'm lost to the world when MW2 hits though... I only hope my clan is interested in competing in COD again. Our COD4 team died... and there seems to be little interest outside of my own in resurrecting it :(
Valve rules.
I still need to get the spy/sniper weapons... I don't have any of them yet. I have some pyro stuff like 4th time already. I already had those before this update :(

If you have the Axtinguisher, one of the coolest things to do is light up some enemies and get whacking. Crit heaven.
The bow and arrow for the sniper is immense fun, I feel almost cruel for using it. It's one of the most satisfying things pinning your foes against walls. Sniper battles with it are a good laugh too.
Still haven't found any Spy unlocks though :(
One of my favourite things about this game aside from the brilliant gameplay and style, is the things the classes will say during the round. Some of the stuff they come out with really is perfect. Cry some more!
Gentlemen.
I didn't get much into the bow for the sniper. I just grew used to the normal sniper gun. Need to try it more.
And lol nice killing there Grift with pyro :P
I have to say heavy is quite hard character to play.

Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:
Team Fortress 2
-The Ambassador now does full critical hits on headshots, instead of mini crits
-The Dead Ringer now fully drains the cloak meter, even if the Spy leaves cloak early
-Fixed Spy disguise menu not being visible in HUD minimal mode
Server log improvements:
-Added "player_extinguish" event for servers to log when a Pyro extinguishes flame with the airburst
-Fixed kill descriptions for Force-A-Nature & Sandman, so server logs can distinguish them
-Identified feign deaths in the events sent to server logs
-Fixed server crash related to the Jarate
<3 Valve (oh, and you too Epic!)
It's a good game. Shame that it's not still $10 though. At that price it was well worth it.. even if I won't play it as much as Call of Duty (or even TF2). Still.. good game.. shame about the bots!
Back to TF2:
""Grass grows, birds fly, sun shines. And brotha'- I hurt people." - Scout
Holy shit, does this game just keep getting better or what? The more time you put into it, the more it opens up to you. I spent some time over the last two days trying to master (or at least improve) my Scout, and it's been well worth it. He's just so much fun to play.
The only thing I don't like about him is that he's just.. not very effective for me outside of 2fort. I can spend all day on 2fort terrorizing the enemy. Not only is he great for capping the intelligence, but he's an incredible assault class on that map. You can quickly zoom from one base to the other, pulling your punches when you need to. Quick hit and run tactics are as fun as they are effective.
But when it comes to capture point and payload... I'm mostly useless (with the Scout, that is). I had to fight my KDR back up to 1.0 (with the Scout, that is) in 2fort. Speaking of which.....
I know I already linked this to most of y'all in our Steam group, but I love this little application. I was a little annoyed at Valve for not including more detailed statistics in game and on Steam.
The Unofficial Team Fortress 2 Stats Parser: http://www.erlenddahl.net/tf2stats/
It will take your stats, which are stored locally (also good to know, in case you want to back them up!) and give you more detailed information than Valve does. I know they don't want you to play purely for your KDR in this game, and I suppose that's why they don't offer you that information... but I find it helpful.
Personally.. knowing I'm not doing as well as I should helps inspire me to play better. It made me kick my Scout into high gear. It also showed me just how Pyro I really am. More than half of my total points (and total kills) are from Ms. Flame.
This game is going to rule 2009 for me.. at least until MW2 hits.
PS. No weekend deal advertised yet :/
I've only just started to play Arena and that game type definitely is great for the scout.
That stats parser is pretty useful. Thanks again for the linkage.
The only reason I can see for valve to not include it with the regular stats is so that during games people aren't always thinking about improving their Kill/Death ratio.
It also makes me glad there isn't a ranking system, because again it just takes the focus away from the game and into statistics.
But every once in a while stuff like that is cool to look at. And like you said it can help you with your strengths and weaknesses.
Gentlemen.
I'll keep working on my Scout. He's definitely not my main squeeze though, and I don't know if he ever will be. As much as people bitch about the Pyro, it's just a fantastically fun assault class to play... and a team with a couple of good Pyros can dominate a team without them.
In this game you really do need a balanced team to succeed. You need Engis and Medics, and you need good offensive players. It's all about a healthy mix!

Lol. Fucking 60€? As if 50€ wasn't expensive enough for a digital game. Fuck Activision, COD4 after 2 years it's still 50€.
And screw EA too. Lowering price on some of their games on US Steam, while Europe still paying 45€ for Mass Effect for example... >_>
