What of it? What's the best class? Best weapons? Best maps? Best game mode? Best players?

Personally, I like either the pyro (I know, I'm a noob) with the Backburner, detonator, and the Axtinguisher; or the Spy with the Ambassador, Your Eternal Reward, and Cloak and Dagger.

The best weapons?
Scout - As a primary, the Soda Popper. Easy.
Secondary?Um, probably the Crit-a-Cola, but I'm sure that could be arguable.
Melee would be the Sandman.
Soldier - As primary, currently either the Black Box or the Cow Mangler 5000. Which do you like better?
As secondary, the Righteous Bison or Buff Banner.
As melee, probably the Half_Zacotchi (sp?)
Pyro - As a primary, easily the Backburner.
As a secondary, the Detonator.
As melee, the Back Scratcher or Axtinguisher.
Demoman - My favorite primary is honestly your straight up Grenade Launcher. You can't go wrong.
Secondary is the Scotish Resistance. God forbid the Charge 'N Targe.
Melee is obviously the Eyelander.
Heavy - Natasha, Family Business, and Gloves of Running Urgently
Engineer - Shotgun should be the Frontier Justice. The secondary should be the Wrangler. The wrench should be the Jag. You should be building full sentries, not minis.
Sniper - Machina, Jarate, and I don't know... none of the Sniper melees appeal to me very much.
Medic - The Kritskrieg (sp?), any of the more advanced needle guns, but not the Crusader's Crossbow, and the Amputator or Solemn Vow.
Spy - Handgun should be the Ambassador. If you like disguising, the Conniver's Kunai. If you don't, then Your Eternal Reward. Your watch should be the Cloak and Dagger.

Overall, the best weapon of all time so far is the Kritskrieg (sp?).

The best map is Pipeline. The best game mode is payload. The best player is "[TSElite] Latisan".

What do you think?

Yeah, I agree. However I don't play the game for weapon balance or hats (even though I have quite a few), I play it because it is the most fun FPS out there, name one other FPS where you can eat sandwiches and throw piss. gallon.


The weapon balancing was one of the reasons it was so great. They offered plenty of weapons but still an even battle. Now it's less so. It's still very even, far more then most games, but they can't leave it perfect with such a wide range of weapons.

But yeah, unusual hats and trading ruined hats :/ I remember when I was amazing because I had the texas ten gallon.


Yea, i have a friend who spends 90% of his time on TF2 trading, it's idiotic. Before hat's became so easy to get, me and my brother (we used to share his account) got 2 or 3 hats by just the extremely rare drop. Now that hat's are thrown at you like monkey feces, we have 29 hats :/, provided 5 or 6 of them were given through game purchases or events. Though we still got about 8 or 9 of those through just random hat drops.

I main as Demoman, Medic, Heavy, Sniper, Engineer and Soldier, so I'll post those loadouts.

Demo: I use a normal grenade launcher with the splendid screen and Persian Persuader.
Medic: Overdose, Medigun, Amputator
Heavy: Tomislav, Sandvich, Fists
Sniper: Machina or Huntsman. Depends if I want to kill a lot of people or pin distracted people to bait sprays. Jarate, Bushwacka.
Engineer: DEHR kit with Gunslinger. Ultimate in battlengy.
Soldier: Liberty Launcher, Bison, Disciplinary Action.

I want to see a pirate based update for TF2. Featuring weapons for Demoman, Engineer, and Scout. I already have some ideas for new Demoman weapons.

...
Soldier of Fortune is the only proof of being an oldtimer in my opinion. Proof of purchase... TF2 was made free a few months ago.



I have a friend who sells and buys hats for real money, it's sad.

As a medic, I personally like using the normal medic gun vs the kritzkrieg just because of the ubercharge effect. I also love the amputator and the upgraded syringe guns. As a scout, the sandman is invaluable.

Anyone else play the dodgeball mod? I love it. I also like Prophunt, and Vs Saxton Hale is decent.

Dodgeball is fun for the first few rounds, then i don't really want to play it again for another few months. Prophunt is fun depending on the servers rules and the players skill. Saxton Hale is always a fun mode to play when you're bored of the normal game.

Just thought I'd like to share that I got 125 points in one life with Spy against real players on 24/7 Harvest_Event server It was mostly sapping, they had 4 engineers. (Why they had that many on a small KOTH map is beyond me)

Some hats in a set give you bonuses if you have all the other items in the set equipped.
