Where are you guys playing now a days? Whenever I check the official server and Love me Sexy, they are always empty.

I usually just find 24/7 servers of the map I feel like playing and join the lowest pinged one.

 

[omgimaninja]

I see most people on Love Me Sexy. Last night we had a full match going on. What time do you play?

 

[Twig]

I was thinking that tonight we should probably play on the GAF server. O:

I expect a lot of people to play tonight simply because of the pyro update, so it might be prudent to make sure there's no interference from a bunch of achievement-farming bastards.

Plus there should be more GAFfers than usual, I'd think. I dunno, we'll see!

that'd be dope, that server has been dead. I check bout every night and it is always empty

 

[Xizk]

I hope tonights update fixes the damage done by the goldrush update to my performance D:
My fps drops to 15 in firefights, which makes it kind of hard to hit anything.

Yelling at me will be responded to in kind by rockets to your face. Thank you.

 

[ice cream]

[Twig]

Yelling at me will be responded to in kind by rockets to your face. Thank you.

But I'll be playing medic! ):

 

[eznark]

i'm normally a pyro, so no yelling this way

 

[sonicspear64]

But I'll be playing medic! ):

A medic who forgets he can heal!

 

[Ysiadmihi]

But I'll be playing medic! ):

All the more reason to target you

 

[Twig]

A medic who forgets he can heal!

It's not my fault being an attack medic is so fun!

 

[Xizk]

It's not my fault being an attack medic is so fun!

Sure was fun to chase you as a pyro!

 

[Twig]

Sure was fun to chase you as a pyro!

SURE WAS FUN KILLING YOU

 

[Xater]

So about that update.....

I can't wait.

 

[Won]

Sooo syringes are projectiles, aren't they?

 

[Twig]

Sooo syringes are projectiles, aren't they?

Haha that's a good question. I wonder! I'm thinking they probably don't count for the pyro punt.

[Xizk]

Yesterday when on cp_Well I killed Twig as a pyro and after that I taunted and got shot mid-taunt by a sniper D:

 

[Visualante]

British Summer time? Probably up in the next hour.

 

[Davidion]

Let's all shoot at Twig tonight.

We always shoot Twig.

From SA forums:

I'm going to bitch for a moment about the Demoman.

In theory, the stickybombs are for making traps. Thus, they need a huge blast radius and good damage. Otherwise, the bombs will never be close enough to kill an opponent.

But right now, stickies are used as superior rocket launcher. Here are some neat tricks. Hold down the launcher charge for about 200 ms or so. The sticky will travel MUCH further, in a flatter arc, and it'll travel faster. It'll explode fast enough to hit Scouts and Pyros that are right in your face, and the explosive radius is very wide and very damaging--anecdotally, I'd claim that it's double the size of a rocket and deals more damage.

You don't have to worry about striking your target remotely close. The sticky radius is really very tremendous. If you score a critical, it's a free kill. Plus, it's an indirect fire weapon, making it easy to hit targets that are running away around corners or over obstacles.

But lastly, and most importantly, lots of people are good at hitting stickies on target now, and because the weapon is so horridly forgiving, this means that a good Demoman has little trouble destroying lots of people very quickly.

I think the sticky launcher should have a significantly reduced blast radius and slightly reduced damage. This would make the weapon less forgiving and more balanced.

I very much agree with this and quite a few of us think stickies should only detonate when they're on surfaces.

Wah wah wah.

That's what you get! ):<

Only reason you killed me was 'cause it was a crit flame. I had plenty of health, and I was about to bonesaw your FACE.

EDIT: Wait why is everyone shooting Twig! Twig's a nice guy. Don't shoot Twig!

 

[Davidion]

We always shoot Twig.

Let's shoot Twig more.

Wah wah wah.

:lol

 

[Won]

I will stab Twig.

 

[ice cream]

Wah wah wah.

Let me guess, you're a demoman whore?

 

[Volcynika]

Wah wah wah.

I was told we would be fighting MEN.

 

[Davidion]

I will stab Twig.

We can even set him on fire. Then you can stab him, and Cheeto can shoot him, maybe Kak can blow him up.

Maybe Javaman can build a sentry on top of his corpse after we're done.

 

[Ysiadmihi]

Let me guess, you're a demoman whore?

Maybe.

 

[Volcynika]

We can even set him on fire.

Shooting Twig is an American pastime!

Everyone knows that the Demoman class is broken, but it works at the moment. Lets wait and see what Valve will do with the class with the Demoman update. Probably the next one anyway.

It seems like they're doing in the order of least played, so I doubt demomman will be next.

Does Twig post on GAF?

 

[Ysiadmihi]

Does Twig post on GAF?

No. I wouldn't show my face if I were him either!

Spoiler

Yes.

Does Twig post on GAF?

Look for the one being defensive. :lol

[fallout]

So, on goldrush, if we kill Twig on the tracks and the cart runs him over, does he die twice?

Also, is EviLore going to have to update the server before we can play on it?

 

[Confidence Man]

That wouldn't really affect anything. Shooting a sticky at people's feet is just as easy.

A solution would be to correlate the damage and explosive radius to the amount of time a sticky is left undetonated, so a quickly fired and detonated-in-the-air sticky would do little damage, and each second it sits on a surface it gains a little more power until after maybe five seconds it reaches it's full power (i.e. where it is now).

 

[notsol337]

Shooting twig is better than shooting anyone else!

Trust me, I used to live with the guy.

He gets really really mad.
