So what class do you guys think will get fixed/overpowered/made interesting next?  My money's on Scout.

I'll place my bet on Spy.

[Versus]

Demoman. Valve says they want to fix his stickies...

I think Spy's backstabs need more fixes

[Scary Womanizing Pig Mask]

What needs to be fixed about them?

[Versus]

Valve calls them "winbombs" due to their high damage.

Valve thinks they take out sentries too easily, especially with an uber

The real problem is there is no way to destroy stickies, you can only knock them away, at least in TFC/TF you could destroy them with an EMP burst. Id bet for the engineer one of the replacement weapons will be some sort of sticky nullification device.

[Mission Difficult]

I've heard that sniper is next. Some dude found new sound files in the French cfg after an update pertaining to a new weapon. A similar thing happened with the heavy (I think) so it seems like a semi-solid lead.

Epic twist: THEY'RE ALL NEXT.

What a twist!

Demo's fine the way it is, people need to stop QQing.

Ok well Demo's not fine, but it's not his stickies that piss me off. It's his pipebombs. They always one shot me as Scout yet I never one shot Scouts with them. Pick one Valve, either > 125 damage or < 125 damage. Fuck damage curves.

People seriously think Valve's just gonna release a fix for backstabs? I might be way off but surely they've not intentionally programmed the hit-boxes to allow the odd facestab? It's just shitty net-code that makes the models appear to lag between stabber and stabee. I reckon if Valve had overhauled their code, they'd be looking to get it out ASAP not hold out for a class update.

Stickies are a joke but that said so are rockets. And the scattergun.

Like a har har that's a good one kind of joke or a omgnerfnow joke? In my opinion none of those need a fix. Demo's supposed to take out sentries easily, Soldier's rockets do take very good aim to even do anything with, and the scattergun...well it also takes aim. I'm starting to wonder if I just suck as Scout or if their's some trick to hitting full force with the Scattergun at anything but point blank range. Even then I manage to screw it up.

Stickies are notoriously over-powered. As stated earlier, even Valve have acknowledged so. I'm a terrible demo but I get along fine just chucking a sticky in someone's vague direction and getting a kill off the massive radius of splash damage. Not sure if you're joking about soldier? It's my most played because it's like playing easy mode for people who can't aim, you just need shoot in the general direction of an enemy and watch your kills mount up.

The scout's a weird class. They're nothing more than a slight nuisance 90% of the time but put in the hands of a player who can actually aim...

[Dave]

splash damagereally fucks scouts over, we survive by dodging, you dont dodge unless you need to tho, so when a sticky comes in your usualy not in a position to move before it blows up infrot of you,
same with rockets but you can guess when soldiers are goign to shoot, radio only fucks me over cause he guesses where im gonna dodge to.

[Honest]

Meant long range as Soldier, I am very very tired. Also it takes 2-3 rockets to kill most classes if you're relying on splash alone which, being nearly all of your rockets, puts you in a bad spot. I dunno, maybe I suck but I can't just fire randomly into a crowd of people and get kills, unless it's a crit but relying on crits is shouting for Superman to save you. He very well could but your better off banking on what you know will happen instead of what could.

And I dunno Dave, I find it incredibly easy to dodge Demo stickies. Soldiers always fuck me up though because I get too close.

Also Pyro's easy mode for people who can't aim. *runs*
