For about 2 years it was true.

As for you DUKE, was the game really worth the wait?

I kind of wish this were true, considering how DNF ended up.

Targe: bullets (Natascha)/melee/juggle with rocket/grenade.
Sword: stay the fuck away from them then.
Equalizer: soldier has <60 HP, so be good at shotgun aiming at least.
DH: still needs precision and good prediction (for mid-range and above) to master.
Buff: everyone pile on the banner holder.

Frankly, im sick of this entire update. I can't even leave cover without a few hundred rockets and grenades blending me into a organ-flavored smoothie.

I just LOVE the demos charging at me. They are running in a straight line... sniper crosshair on them... headshot. Or if Im scout I just doublejump over them and no lube to their behinds...

Also, regarding Demoman. There are Demomen, then there are Scotsmen. There is no warrior unless he is Scotsman. ;)

The DH has been fixed since this morning. That bug was taken out.

[url=#user_comment_20356]@TankHunter678[/url]: No random crits, yes. Reduce damage gain, no. Keep in mind the soldier needs to get into "if someone breathes on me, I die" range to get one-hits on the light classes(barring crits).

Chaos: Maybe wait until a majority of players are no longer soldiers or demomen? As heavy I've only ever been decapitated twice; once I was near death from other enemies, and the other time they had an uber. Heavy outright shreds "warrior" demomen.

As for the Equalizer, I would say remove its random crits, and reduce its damage gain a bit. Then any buffs to the shovel can make it a sidegrade.

I feel sorry for Gunboats more though, it ONLY protects against vertical rocket jump damage, not long or wall jumps. If that were fixed...

[url=#user_comment_20338]@Bdonski[/url] The Direct Hit is in need of a bug fix, it is currently applying its damage bonus twice, and the mini-crit detection is working on swimmers and people going down stairs. So yes, its going to 1HKO most enemies because of bugs.

[url=#user_comment_20338]@Bdonski[/url] The 1HKO'ing is the POINT of the weapon. No nerfs are required. And no, the equalizer and eyelander bot fall easily to a puff + sting.
Gamegeneral

The Targe and Eyelander make him a more offensive class. The Scottish resistance is too impractical for normal combat, so it makes him more defensive. The pipebombs are the same because they work in both ways.
Valve's updates seem to change roles of their classes in a lot of ways.
Chaos

Sword and board demo is hilariously overpowered, they cut 4 heads off in a span of several seconds because if you thought regular melee had a habit of being 400 feet long then you're gonna cry when a demo lops your head off from 6 miles away and then proceeds to do it to another dozen people.

As for the targe and eyelander, I really don't know what they were thinking, its just an odd update, they should have stuck with a demo style and made a different grenade launcher.

The eyelander is an interesting idea and I think its balanced. The -25 hp hurts people a lot more then they think.
Bdonski
over 14 years ago
The Equalizer and Direct Hit are need of serious nerfs. The DH will 1HKO 7/9 classes if it hits them while they are jumping or falling, need I say more?

The equalizer will win every melee fight, and makes the soldier way to easy to play, capping points and intel or getting to hp much faster.
