Oh don't worry I almost never play medic (in fact, I think he's the least played class in the game). I usually play Soldier, Heavy, or sometimes Engineer. I usually do well as the "heavy assault" type classes in some FPS's. I've been playing a lot of the Mann vs. Machine game-mode, I usually join in on games to avoid the long time of waiting to connect to a server the other way. My loadouts would include: Liberty Launcher, The Righteous Bison, and The Equalizer for Soldier, Brass Beast, Sandvich, and KGB for Heavy, etc. I've also been playing around in Source Filmmaker, it's complex but fun to use.

I used to main Pyro but no one likes Pyro haha

I usually play Demo/Soldier, I just never had the patience for Sniper before.

I like playing Medic but I hate taking flak for stupid people, I mean I'll heal a dude and then he'll run into a bunch of sentries for no reason and then get mad at me, like WTF guy? Don't take me down with ya lol

I think no one likes pyro due to the w+m1 pyros and the back-burner pyros (it's sort of like with scouts who equip the force of nature or soda popper which is unfair in the case of the scouts, I mean I admit they're annoying weapons sometimes but it's the fact that people can't seem to accept the fact they can be blown back from a shot). The backburner could be balanced if Valve removes the air-blast completely instead of increasing ammo cost per use and switching the crits to mini-crits. I sometimes play pyro and I use the degreaser, man-melter, and sharpened volcano fragment when playing pyro.I used to play demo but not so much anymore, with sniper I usually use him on Mario Kart maps and balloon race maps because there are good places to snipe usually. With the medic I can understand that, when someone is being healed there not invincible unless they're ubercharged, they can take few more hits but again they're not invincible. In my opinion a few unfair nerfs to weapons were for the Natasha (like people called it Overpowered which is BS because people couldn't accept the fact they could be knocked back when being fired at, I guess people didn't like the fact that they had no control in the situation), the cow-mangler 5000 (mainly for making the charged laser wimpy looking, it used to be this cool looking blast), etc. OP weapons that I agree with are the dead-ringer/enforcer combo, Direct Hit (if it wasn't for the highly reduced splash damage range, it would be OP), backburner, etc.

Yeah, I was one of those backburner OP guys hahaha, I mean who wouldn't use it?

I feel the same way about Natasha, I mean since the nerf and then brass beast who uses it?

If there is one thing that always annoy me about Snipers, is when you are closing up on them and they think they can headshot you before you kill them. Like, dudes, fight back. XD
Not to mention, headshot = taunt.

Hah, too right, I got into the habit of quick switching to the jarate jar and whipping out the ol' bushwaka

If I'm going to go down it's gonna be a fight!

I'm bad for taunting though, there are 'chieves associated with it so it happens I guess.

A lont time ago I was playing as Demoman on Gold Rush and I managed to get the achievement where you kill 3 heavies with one sticky bomb detonation AND the achievement for taunting with the grenade launcher. There were 3 angry heavies who forgot about the cart and just came after me instead haha

Nice man, you really got some AWPer hand in those games throughout your TF2 gaming life.

AtomicTiki In reply to BB-K [2012-09-28 16:32:50 +0000 UTC]

I use the Machinima + Jarate + Bushwacka

And it kicks much ass

Damage function on the AWPer Hand is identical to the default Sniper Rifle, it looks cool and has a great sound effect though makes me wish I had pre-ordered CS now

I want to get my hands on the Hitman's Hitmaker, that weapon looks like all kinds of fun. I got the Cleaner's Carbine as a drop the other day, not sure if I like it, the crit bonus is kinda weak.

Yeap, you get that reference. Well, I couldn't wait for the crack, Valve really did a nice damn job on piracy on one of the most popular game so far and it's already 5 weeks and still can't crack it. I got it, sadly I didn't have that code but no matter since I don't play TF2 anymore as I stick with L4D2 while waiting for CSGO that time.

BB-K In reply to AtomicTiki [2012-09-28 18:08:41 +0000 UTC]

Well, let's face it, Earth is using multiple currencies and there are nations which find original copies are too expensive to afford. Let's not forget, in my life so far, CS GO is the cheapest, the other games I see, in my country, it cost between $70-$150. Bigger numbers create the fear factor, that's why. Luckily I'm rich enough to afford it even though I was saving the money for this week's windshield tint installation for my car, which cost $150. Now I have to wait for another month instead. Same case for Adobe, it's $1000 for Photoshop alone (I think), that's insane, if I would to buy one, I prefer to pay $50 for it. As for games, $5-10.

Too low you asked? Well, we don't care, we want small numbers and have it cheap, that's all. Business maybe business after all, but in the mind of the Average Joes, nope, we still don't care. And that's another reason why tons of people and myself hates Apple while business people loves it so much.

Believe me I understand, however there are free options that don't require violating copyright and terms of service agreements, they aren't the same but that's what you're paying for.

BB-K In reply to AtomicTiki [2012-09-28 19:18:46 +0000 UTC]

I bought it out of impatience and also have proper value since it really is a great game. The last original game I bought was Condition Zero in order to access some hidden missions and enhanced skins (Except for the Leet, it's a Muslim) in skirmish when the pirated versions don't provide. IF CS GO would have been $70+, I would not dare to buy it despite high temptation, but at least $50 is fine enough and not too financial threatening, unless if it's $30 then it's ok.

Although right now I'm a little worried about the game being updating constantly and the other is being the achievements cannot move if I were in Offline Mode. I'm a big newb to Steam and not to mention I hate it when I own the original CZ before. Even L4D& TF2, all I got was pirated and by the time I update, I always go through non-Steam server systems like Garena or EPC Gaming instead, they're more user-friendly instead, moreover, a lot less painful than Steam since I saw Steam can't download updates properly.

That's good man, yeah I've really been thinking about getting it myself especially with winter coming. I'm not a big CS fan but it looks like a lot of fun.

Steam can be a pain in the butt, that's for sure.

BB-K In reply to AtomicTiki [2012-09-28 21:06:42 +0000 UTC]

Trust me, it's a lot as fun as much as TF2. TF2 was fine but if you want an even faster pace, try or look up Arms Race in Youtube. I had so much fun in that mode compare to the classic mode.

As for Steam, they can screw themselves as I prefer manual patches. Steam is all auto, once the game is updated and if you forced to reformat, you have to download all over again. So I always have patches (Which can get from either Garena or EPC) ready when Steam does not provide. Don't forget, they also have standalone players which people can play on their server instead of Steam since they are also anti-Steam.

Well, that's why I want to use Offline mode, wanted to, but I'm worried that my Achievements will not save unless I'm online again.

I don't mind too, EXCEPT for anti-virus like Avast. I prefer the old fashion way of downloading the EXE file for the update patch, and nothing can beat that! To those who have quota which can be drained, auto-update is a bad idea imagine a failed download.

That's why I need some existing Steam users to find out and I hope to have this question answered so I can set Offline mode immediately. After all, I'm a whole solo player and never multi online.

Never mind, it's no big issue. If the game does get auto-updated for some reason, I'll take it to my workplace and get it updated since I'm not letting my connection to download some possible big files when the quota is limited rather than the last ISP I used to subscribe which offers unlimited quota.
