I really want to believe in a beautiful past where everything was always as bad as it is now, and I truly believe things will get better once the noobtide recedes, but it's hard to look at the past as anything but a rainbow field of competent players when everything I see now is nightmares.

I really feel like I get the pathos of the tea party now.

On the bright side, I traded my spare Tomislav for an atomizer.  Fuck I'm maneuverable now.  I'm like greased lightning if Thor were on an ounce of meth.

Not htat it matters, this is one of those days where no matter what class I play I can't do shit for shit.

Here's my Backpack, hats are on page three. But you'll have to give me a good offer on them or you'll have to kill me to get them :P Feel free to add me on steam, my steam ID is Bdthemag.

RUN FROM THE SCOUT. But scouts are the hard coutner to anything, unless it has splash damage. And sentries. But even then, throw a baseball and hope it hits one. Easy kill.
Also, crit balls give the longest stun at any range and do 45 dmg. If a ball bounces off and hits another enemy, it'll stun them depending on how far away it is. Since crits stun, you can stun an entire group of enemies. Or be like me, and use it to insta kill injured people.

I changed my mind about the free update.  Every doomsayer is right.  Right now the DFC server has five spies and three snipers on one team.
Don't hate on all us freeloaders. I'm mostly playing Pyro, Scout or Demoman on DFC server, though I did play a couple of sniper and spy rounds to break the monotony. And I suck as Scout so I'm not really useful when I play that either, but it's the most fun class and I'll keep playing it badly until I get better.

Fuck yes. If I had that baseball I'd be even better off as a scout. But alas, I am stuck punching people in the face with fish for maximum hilarity.

You know, I noticed that I do a lot worse with Scout at DFC than random servers. Might be that I'm just making up excuses for sucking, but I get the impression that DFC tends to have claustrophobic maps.

Tha's weird. in the DFC server I manage to become one of the top players of the game including several dominations, whereas on random maps I tend to be cannon fodder more than anything.

Personally I also tend to do horribly on DFC. In random servers if I'm playing spy I can get good 10-backstab lives, while on DFC I feel lucky to get 1 kill per 10 deaths.

It's a class thing I reckon. I seem to do better with Demoman on DFC. And I do just fine with spy on random servers, but can't get a single friggin backstab at DFC (I really should switch back from Your Eternal Reward).

kinseti: How does Brass Beast, Dead Ringer, Direct Hit, Boston Basher, Dead Ringer, Your Eternal Reward, and Degreaser in exchange for all my duplicate items sound?

Sure, but you said Dead Ringer twice, and you don't want the Boston Basher. Trust me it's awful. My steam name's the same as my forum name, and I'm online for another couple minutes so add me.

Killing snipers who can't snipe, is just... almost dishonourable. It feels too easy.

After playing on an 8-man team with 3 snipers who couldn't snipe I lost all my sympathy.

'Pologies. Wrote that while very tired. I'll add you here in a second.

Now that you reminded me with that quote, does *anyone* use Boston Basher effectively? I kinda just swing wildly with the standard bat because I'm moving too fast to aim, which obviously doesn't work with the Basher. And I can't slow down either, because a scout that's not running and jumping is a dead scout.

I actually like the boston basher to some extent. I never just wildly flail the bat around, and the Boston Basher can kill a low health retreating enemy pretty fast.
