It is pretty easy to kill soldiers now, but if they know any better they'll get out their shotgun, then switch to rocker launcher, etc.

at first i didnt mind because airblasts still killed people and still pissed soldier off
but now its literally "press right click and you get a kill" because it really doesnt matter where the rocket is

i should find a video of reflecting and just see how large that radius is actually


also, how am i crying
im like "its getting more frustrating now than annoying ugh"
you're like "wahwahwah you're crying ololol i kill u ohhohohoho"

the reflect area is kinda huge its basically a 90 degree angle from where you're pointing because the airblast basically works like a mirror and rockets are light

I dunno a lot of pyros still suck at it and so you can usually just aim at their feet.

tested airblast size with chief, he should have pics up soon. anyways, as long as you can see the projectile and its within about 5 feet, you can reflect it. im serious, you can just barely see something in your peripheral vision and reflect it

edit: since FOV is 95 it does have a 90 degree area cone but its more like a square cuz it doesnt get smaller farther in

its more like a square cuz i was reflecting rockets going BEHIND me

Get the Xvid (or better yet h264) codec and use the startmovie command.

Or you know, do some searches.

i think wegame has a plugin that will do it, but make sure you record the demo first, and then use wegame plugin on demo playback. otherwise it will be laggy as fuck
