TF2 Thread, now featuring HALLOWEEN!

I have 2 name tags, but I can't think of any good names. I want to name my face-melting knife.

"Roberto's Stabbin' Knife". If you had a description tag, you should describe it: "Stand back, I need to practice my stabbin'! HEE-YAH!"

Meh, tbh I am not too fond of that name.

I think I also wanna name my gore-spattered scattergun.

I renamed my Eternal Reward to Mr. Skinner. I figured it was appropriate considering what the weapon does.

I have a Sydney Sleeper with the description of "R. Kelly's weapon of choice."

test bump etc

EDIT : ok cool

TF2 is really the only game I can play when I'm at uni now so I'm getting back into it. Tomislav is getting a -50 max HP debuff added to it in the beta, which from what my friends tell me is pretty big.

they also told me stop using natascha ;_;

Next thing they'll tell you to stop playing heavy .

Next thing they'll tell you to stop playing heavy .

I don't see the problem though. I had little problem murdering stuff as Heavy so long as a Medic is following me. Same for me keeping a regular Heavy alive: nothing survives as long as the Heavy can't be bursted down. I do admit though an Ubered Pyro leads to lots of lols and mass destruction as well.

Bummer if the -50 HP thing is true - I truly enjoy the Tomislav now that I started playing a Heavy. My main classes right now are Scout, Heavy, and Sniper. I'll still switch to Soldier and Pyro from time to time.

yeah, I played the beta, the Tomislave nerf is true. I think the -50hp should be switched to lowering of 25-50% of Heavy's ammo when using that gun. The 10% damage increase to the backburner has been removed, and the original flamethrower has been bumped up in damage by 10%, the degreaser has a 10% decrease, but afterburn damage is still the same as the normal flamethrower.

Also: a long with that nerf, the next update would bring in new weapons and hats, with the ability to wear two misc items, though not all combinations are possible because of clipping.

Don't forget the 4 loadout slots that's pretty awesome. Oh and the Pyro being able to use the reserve shooter too.

HP decrease added to tomislav is perfect. Makes it what it was intended to be, an ambush weapon.

There was a time that schema was leaked for a moment, causing people to have default loadouts, but some people had updated stats from the Beta.
here is some of the items:

I don't get the Flamethrower changes. How's a 10% damage increase/decrease going to change the fact Backburner will still rule against unsuspecting targets, and the fact the Degreaser is for hit and run Axtinguisher kills? 10% boost to classic Flamethrower seems nice though, may make killing people a whee bit easier. Now that I think about it though, Backburner is now not a straight upgrade to the Flamethrower damage-wise, so maybe Pyros can use the classic a bit more.

I'm no Pyro pro though, since I only got in about ~2 hours of playtime. My opinions are based on what I have experienced on the receiving end from other Pyro players as well as seeing videos of the Degreaser in play. I only got the Achievement Flare Gun, working my way to the Achievement Backburner.

Backburner's airblasts are more expensive (this is huge, you know), Degreaser is more melee-oriented, regular Flamethrower is better at mid-range.

Some cool stuff added in the Manniversary update
