About that thing with pyros, when I am heavy I always see n00b pyros rushing towards me and I kill them. But I recently faced one of them who burned me, airblasted me away from health kit and ammo, took the ammo and finished the job with axtinguisher when my ammo was off.
A really pro pyro indeed.

You need an airblast when a crit rocket is flying your way.
You need an airblast when there is a sticky carpet to clear.
You need an airblast when you need to block an uber.
You need an airblast when you have to blow opponents off a point.
You need an ariblast to push enemies on fire away so that ou can finish them off with your shotgun/flare gun.
You need an airblast when a baseball/flare/arrow is flying towards you.
You need a backburner when you want to get killed twice as much.'Nuff said.

Oh, l almost forgot....you need an airblast if you want to extinguish a burning teammate!

For those who don't know about it; I present the TF2 Backpack Examiner.

I also just got a Lv. 100 Texas Ten Gallon.

I've just started not deleting my items. I figure we'll be able to do something with them eventually.

That hat sucks. Congrats anyway. I'm happy with my miners helmet.

Kooper's backpack

In one arena match, while I was waiting to play, I decided to delete all of my duplicates. When I was finished I realised that VALVe was going to do something with them later on. Oh well, shit appens.

I did the same. And I deleted new ones.

Then, maff.

6 items per class (upcoming updates and whatnot)
9 classes
= 54 items.

Surely, the Misc slot will give us something, not to mention the Overhealer (maybe), and the Gloves of Running Urgently when we get those. With 100 slots, Dupes will have to be for something.

So now I keep them.

Nope, this is never going to happen. The Overhealer is just way too overpowered. You can just overheal a whole team at the start of the match, and they'll just dominate. Seriously, Heavies with 600 health that doesn't decay?

and the Gloves of Running Urgently when we get those.

Yes, this is urgently needed. Personally I'd probably welcome the change if they removed the crit effect with the KGB, and gave you the speed boost when armed with them.

Well, that much we know. Trading etc, is but one avenue that's expected to come from all these. Hopefully Valve will let us know soon.

Yeah, I really should do the same.

Backpack - All neatly organized and such in terms of highest level to lowest. And i have at least 2 of everything (besides hats).

Well, here's mine. I've got everything ordered as well, by class, and then all my duplicates at the bottom, ordered by type.

I liked my Soldier sig so much, I went and made ones for the entire team. You can steal them if you like.

In this pic the quality's been raped to try and fit it under the NG picture limit. If you want a better quality version with your name on it, or something, just ask.

Hey, they are actually very nice...l make my sigs every once in a while, and l always wanted a tf2-related sig, but I couldn't think of a way to combine TF2 and tanks :(

Cheers. But why does it have to be Tank related? Can't it just be Heavy related?

Alright, this is TOO weird. When I try to open tf2 and ANy other steam game, I receive a notification saying, the game is currently unavailable next time. Please try again later. All the time. Why this happens?

Well, this is for the lolz. My STEAM.exe dissapeared, and reappeared and now my mods are gone and I have to install again all my STEAM games. I merely ask, WHY THE HECK THIS HAPPENED?

I haxxed you.

I just had an idea for the Item Crafting system.
You insert an item (eg Sandman). Sandman is a lvl 15 bat.
You simply gamble for hats. Level 15 = 15% chance of receiving a hat by giving a sandman.
Maybe they will use different levels again. Level 80 sandviches, level 45 backburners etc.
Level = chance in %
Scout Item = Scout Hat
Seems fair to me.

Whoa there, the Beta Overhealer heals to 150% like any other Medigun, and it's heal rate is 50%. This means you can heal the entire team to 150%, but you can't be a pocket medic since you don't heal anywhere near fast enough.

Although the HP debuff that comes along with it is a bit steep. (-100 HP or -6HP/s while in use)

It's been too long though.

Well, because I like tanks, not heavy things...
Also, poor TBK...now he will have to spend 6 hours reinstalling all the TF2 updates :(

I finally got Steam, don't know when I'll get TF2 though. Just joined the Steam group, name's Fuhjem

Get the Orange Box instead of just TF2. It's cheap ass hell nowadays and worth it.

Not according to tf2Wiki.

"The first Medic unlock, for example, is called the Overhealer. Instead of temporarily buffing people's health to 50 percent above their normal maximum, it permanently boosts them to double their standard health. The downside is that it'll be dramatically worse at building ÜberCharge - in fact, Valve are toying with not letting it Uber at all."

Although the HP debuff that comes along with it is a bit steep. (-100 HP or -6HP/s while in use)

Yeah, that it is. If you have a good Medic with you, the -6 HP/s shouldn't be too bad, since you can both run to the front lines, then before you jump into the fight, switch to the Minigun/shotgun/sandvich and heal. The reason it has to have something like this is because otherwise people will run around meleeing all the time. I don't think that the Melee damage should be reduced if you're going to lose health as well. One or the other would be better I think.

DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS.

You were talking about the 'new' overhealer. I dunno, but it sounds like a shitty unlockable to me... 180 HP scouts running around all the time doesn't really appeal to me.

And not only this. HAlf life, Portal, dawn of war, empire, making shortcuts again e.t.c.

EPUC HEAVY AND MEDIC FOREVER!

Lol. I can't believe I hadn't seen that before, what with all the awards it has. A good laugh, anyway.

Also, I think I've been converted... I'm sticking to the original Syringe Gun from now on. That boost to your native healing, while it doesn't seem like much, is so good it's insane. I was playing a ctf_turbine match, and managed to cap the intel 3 times just due to that healing, and some good dodging (and with some help from a soldier, but I generally ran the intel back to base by myself).

The blutsauger is really only better if your opponent has already managed to kill your teammate, and you're left fending for yourself. Otherwise though, the Syringe Gun is much better (I find).

You may be right, but the blutsauger is the best for W+M1 pyros, and do not forget that while you are in action you drain MUCH health with the blutsauger. In my opinion, and ask HeavyTank too, the medic would be perfect if he was using a Phoenix Medi-Gun(the medigun from resistance 2). It is a nice thingie with a lazer that damages enemies and drains health from them. Then, you use this health as a rocket who heals teammates by MUCH health who are in its blast radious. Would it be good?
What do you think guys?

Leave all subjects. I installed tf2 but happened this.

It is good for W+M1 pyros, but really, if you're draining "MUCH health" while you're in the action, you're not being a particularly good medic, since you should be healing your team instead of going nuts with the Blutsauger.

Because plagiarism won't get Valve sued at all.

Oh yeah, as for this, it looks like certain fonts/images to do with the UI haven't downloaded/installed properly. Try verifying the integrity of the cache, and if that still doesn't work, re-download it again.
