Fuck XD does that mean there will be a rainbow flamer thrower now?


God I hope so.

what made it more funny to me was that my sister was also watching with me & she was holding her baby XD

It was good but I was hoping for it to be a bit more extensive like meet the spy.

It was everything I couldd have dreamed for! =')

I knew they weren't going to reveal anything.  If they did it would have killed the Pyro's mysteriosity and frankly made him less of a character.  I like the outcome.
[/quote]
Agreed wholeheartedly
[/quote]

I acknowledged that as well but I still wanted a little bit of history :/

There was also that little part of me that wanted it to be the scouts mom. They could've done something like the scorned lover of the spy considering the counter-class aspect would add to it.

None of the weapons seem particularly great.  Nothing I'd change.  The only thing that might be a bit nasty is the sniper rifle in the hands of someone like liquid.  For people who as a rule don't body shot at all, it's a flat upgrade.

Well, sort of. It's true that if you never bawdyshawt, the stated downside to this weapon doesn't really apply. However, the benefits are pretty negligible. Players like liquid tend to rely on quickscoping and will only charge up shots for things like heavies or sentries. In this, there really isn't a huge benefit to this, and in fact the "focus" can actually be a hindrance; not being able to unscope can be life-threatening sometimes.

Doesn't say anything about not being able to unscope, just that it doesn't automatically unscope when you fire. And since many good snipers jump right after shooting, it wouldn't change anything if you didn't want it to.
