It's a funky thing, and I don't think I'll ever get used to the lack of being able to detonate stickies without seeing them. So many intuition kills.

 Really waxing for the new soldier shotgun. It sounds amazing, but I only have one Frontier Justice to craft with and I used up all my other weapons for scraps.

I have it, its decent not really that useful unless you have quick reflexes and good aim.

[PTTG??]

I can't stand the Frontier. When your turret gets killed, you're more than likely going to die immediately anyway... and then you loose all those crits.

Next time I see you online, remind me and I'll give you mine.

You're playing attack engie wrong then. You should never stand by your turret if you're going attack engie. You have to make the opponent choose between shooting you or the turret and realize the job of your turret is to die, nothing else, just die while you shoot people. Any second they spend shooting your turret is a second you spend shooting them.

Yea, I typically ninjaneer a T1 gun,l wait for it to get a couple kills, and then detonate it myself an attack.

That being said, I would advise never using it and a wrangler at the same time because you just have no firepower at that point.

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, I like the FJ because it looks cool and I have a vintage one so it makes me feel good when I use it but I think I've gotten like...  one kill total off of revenge crits.  Ever.

[Darvi]

Sooo, I returned to the server and got meself some achievments because nobody was there.

Should I reveal the PW so other guys can play too?

[Duke 2.0]

 More often than not I waste revenge crits, but it's a fun little game to play with yourself to accumulate more and more of 'em. Seeing a 10 on your sentry and laughing with glee over how many revenge crits it'll grant is half the fun of that thing.

[Darvi]

So I was thinking. How about making a training match for all the newbies? Like, team RED is full of experienced players, who do whatever, like setting up sentries, building up überpower and stuff, and team BLU are the newbies, and they get some sort of goal to achieve, depending on their class.

Like, spies and demos gotta try to destroy all the sentries, while the engies gotta try and find any spies RED sends towards them. And of course they'll get all kinds of helpful hints, like "Hit everybody who comes close to you in case he's a spy trying to backstab you"

[Nistenf]

I support the idea, and I like blu

Don't we already have the tutor/trainer/whatever mode for that?

Unless they removed it, you can use in any server that allows spectators. You can point stuff to the newb player like a RTS sort of game.

[Darvi]

Unfortunately the tutorial only covers 4 classes and even then only the basics. Also I believe that learning by doing is generally more effective.

You can "Be a coach", with the possibility of a coaching-specific hat if you were really good according to them.

He means the coach mode, not the tutorial.

[Darvi]

Oh. That thing. Ya know, that's even better. Then we can have 2 newb teams competing against each other and stuff.

[Enzo]

Do people actually use coach mode? I've never touched it myself.
