flare-gun (which is easily the hardest-to-aim-weapon in the game).

Not really. I'd say Demo's 'Nades and Stickies are harder to aim accurately at long distance.

Backend item system update? TRADING? THAT THING THAT WAS PROMISED WITH THE SPY/SNIPER UPDATE MONTHS AGO?

And cause some serious "WTF"s at the same time.
(not quite exact - I never found any of these except the Equalizer, because the unlock system hates me - it never gave me my milestones, even before this bug)
All at the same time:

Jay has found: The Chargin' Targe
Jay has found: The Eyelander
Jay has found: The Scottish Resistance
Jay has found: The Equalizer
Jay has found: The Direct Fire
Jay has found: The Buff Banner

Nah, I used an achievement unlocker.

I inverted all my legitimately earned achievements and reverted them so I can keep all my real achievements while getting all the unlocks. I don't have patience nor like to grind achievements and I like using the new weapons while keeping my real achievements.

It's called the Steam Achievement Manager 5.2 if you guys are interested.

I'm going to assume this is one of those things valve will get a little pissed about.

Yeah, that's what I told him last night. Still did it anyway. But when I woke up today and saw all of his "achievements", I laughed.

So. Today I was a bit surprised. I actually legitimately killed someone with my Targe bash in a game today on the DFC server. I thought that'd be near impossible to pull off in an actual game. Too bad I already had that achievement.

Thing is, why would anyone ever bother to use the targe bash?

Melee weapons do more damage, and you wouldnt want to charge straight into some enemies with the GL...

Yep...


And the targe actually -bashes- people? I've always only got the melee crit bonus.

You dont even have to melee using the Targe.
Just Charge and Pipebomb for win.

Here's a page with more info and you can judge for yourself how risky it is: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=839397

Besides, my actual achievements are legitimately owned and it's funny seeing the spam of fake ones fill up my screen. You guys should lighten up and loosen your panties. I've done this several times now over the past two years and am surprised you guys only noticed NOW.

Thing is, why would anyone ever bother to use the targe bash?

It wasn't intentional. I was just using the Targe to get over some Stickies before the Demo could have time to notice. The guy just happened to be right at the end of my charge with next to no health.

And yeah, Soulwynd. The Targe does some damage if you hit somebody with it. This is usually negligible, as it only does about 19 damage at its max distance. There's an achievement for killing someone with the Targe's bash damage (as in, not just combining the crit bonus with another weapon), but I got that the other day thanks to Greiger. But we arranged that; it wasn't in the middle of an active game like today.
