This "quick-fix" thing sounds like they're trying to imagine a world where medics and scouts actually interact.

The problem with the quick fix is the no overhealing.

The faster heal and uber build rate is the real bonus(because yeah, scouts are too ADD to help out with something like that).

But without overheals, it's far too easy to take down the heal target.

Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.

Id say its meant for keeping 2-3 guys running on the front lines at once.  I med a fair bit (public and 6v6 comp) and in pub I find there are 4 ways medding will work
1.  Backline building uber
2.  Few meters behind frontline keeping the troops rolling
3.  Behind the line pocket medic on good well, just about anything
4.  Self ubering, taunt killing, crit needle spitting stabbing everything that moves combat med
The 50% extra uber charge is what makes me think the quick fix would be decent, you would spit ubers out every 15-20 seconds, as long as you can dodge your heavy would be close to invincible.  In public the scout boost would be fairly useless, VERY interesting in comp, pocket med on scout can be brutal with a pro scout.

Also, here is a vid of me on a 7 kill streak as pyro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzvXYaI8Iss&feature=BFp&list=WL311E2463E2B3DEFD&index=1

I don't know if they really want to encourage more combat medics...

Wouldnt, ubersaw/standard uber is the solo meds loadout of choice.  Self uber can be a great way to camp a spawn for giggles

I figure it is more for
2.  Few meters behind frontline keeping the troops rolling.
not for personal medic work, med is dodging like a fiend and trying to keep 2-3 frontline troops at full health

I found myself wishing I could make a replay last night but it was off.

Was an engy and a pyro managed to destroy my sentry before I could get back to it, I finish him off with a shotgun and two snipers come around the corner.  Using the rest of my shotty ammo I kill them both, and then a scout rounds the corner.  I back off switch to wrench and wrench him straight in the face as he rounds the next corner.  All in about 6-7 seconds.

How about a giant melee needle that heals the medic on hit? Or a Medigun which Ubers like the Buff Banner and everyone nearby (Medic included, he can swap weapons) gets Mini Crits. Maybe one that can repair Engineer buildings as well?

You need to make said elf leather into the most amazing work of art.  Embed it with every kind of gem you have, stud it with metals, and sew images into it.  Erect a shrine outside your fort with that in the center.  Let the elves know that you view their very skin as naught more but a medium for your dwarves to work on.

Hey, if anyone has any skills in making weapon/hat models, we could probably make a fake update. It would be fun =3

I wished keys dropped. Or there was a way to get them without buying them. Oh well, no unusual hats for me. Just scrap metal for crates...

You should learn the secret technique of Profit Trading, thats how I make and lose my fortunes. I've traded alot of hats for games recently.

From what I've seen, the only requirement for game-trader trust is a SPUF account. Maybe a TF2items link, so they can confirm you have the hat you're offering. Oh, and of course, your promise that you're not going to take their gift and then run laughing into the sunset.

So, um, yeah. Near as I can tell, there's a reason these morons get scammed so frequently.  ::)

Well you get people to vouch for you, people don't regularly do that atleast in my experience.

Oh and im also a confirmed trader on SourceOP, that helps.
