I have the new shotgun. It shoots out a sort of bubble burst that hits 3 times, each for 20 damage. The thing is, this burst travels somewhere between the speed of a direct hit rocket and an arrow, so it's sort of viable at long range and will always do pretty good damage. However, at close range, it's totally inferior to the shotgun's superior damage/fire rate.
Has anybody else gained 50 ping from the uber update on? Every server I've joined seems to be unplayable....

And what's with the non-reflectable note on the alt shotgun? I thought shotgun pellets couldn't be reflected anyway.

Because it specifies that it shoots projectiles, all others of which (rockets, bombs, arrows, flares, sandman balls) can be reflected.

No, Valve clearly hates Engies. They're never getting an update again.

Has anybody else gained 50 ping with this latest update? I can't seem to play on any servers well....  :-\
I love the game, but I may never play it if it doesn't perform well...

I only noticed slightly higher slowdown, but one or two people on the server were complaining about massive lagspike glitching.

In related news, about 4 people on each team were using the new soldier launcher. Maybe I should wait a few more hours between a weapon release and playing from now on. The floating kills are also very distracting.

Actually, I think this gun nerfs the soldier versus engineer. While a soldier can disable a sentry for 4 seconds, it's REALLY hard to get charged up so that you can fire at the sentry without getting torn up by it first ( you move SO slow when charging up) and furthermore, this gun does like 10 damage a shot to a sentry gun. No really, any soldier using this gun without excellent teamwork won't be able to take down a sentry. A team that coordinated would have no trouble taking it down in the first place. So, while I think that versus everything else it's op, I actually think this is a buff in disguise for engineer. Any soldier using this becomes a free kill instead of the guy who can kill your level 3 in two hits.
