It's passable. Probably a bit slower than today's average, but yea, I used to have like 30 kb/s. (Now I max a bit above 1 mb/s)

As for what class is best for beginner's - I'd say medic. Makes you more useful than if you played pyro (I usually see too many pyros and too few medics), although you don't really get to experience fighting. The best thing to do is to try every class - which I really should get around to doing.

Don't pay attention to anyone telling you what class to play.  Try out all of the classes and play the one that seems the most fun to you, if you get bored of it or see that another class has a cool ability, switch to it.  No class is "better" or easier than another, it's all a matter of personal preference.

Keep in mind that items you get are unlocks, and NOT upgrades for the most part. They are sidegrades, usually letting you play another playstyle.

I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

Are there still issues with the unlock system? I haven't found but one item since the update, and that was the day after, and yesterday I got soldier milestone 1 and got nothing. Then today it told me I found the equalizer, but I only had the equalizer I had already found (the aforementioned single item).

I think they fixed the milestones. And they ran a script that gives everyone their missing items.

Just had an epic run as engi. 9 dominations, 83 kills, 1010 healing, 6 tele's, and no idea how many assists in one life.

 

The attackers were Blitzkrieging the first part of Gold Rush, and they were about to win when I set up in the on the top floor of the house next to the first cap point. They couldn't get back to the cart! I finally died when a pyro found a way to get to me, but some soldiers that came through my tele kept the sentry safe until I could tele back. I got 5 more kills before the round ended.

Total for the game. (I only played one round before that. All but one of the deaths was before the engi run.)

Wow, beats my engie's best. But I don't like engie. >_>

 

I killed as Scout-Heavy last night in Well and then in Dustbowl, 1st round as RED. 1 Heavy and 1 Medic were enough to push the entire BLU team from Point A to their spawn and hold them there for a couple of minutes. They had no balls whatsoever.

So, how do you get these hats/items? Just random drops in-game? If so, what do they look like :???:

Item Drop checks are done every 25 Minutes sometimes resulting in an item. (This also applies to the Camera Beard Hat)

Hat Drop checks are done every 4 Hours 17 Minutes or so sometimes resulting in a Hat.

 

When you obtain one you can wear (Hats) and/or use (Items).

So they just appear randomly in-game? Do they float above the ground, shining, just saying "take me!!!"? I don't quite get it :mellow:

They appear randomly in your inventory. A screen will pop up and tell you.

Any idea how to get the Cloak and Dagger back? Steam deleted it for some reason and I'm having a hard time playing without it...

Really, the regular watch is vastly superior to the cloak and dagger, even the deadringer is better.

Yeah. The watch is a ton better, I get a lot more done with it.

Every so often the chatbox area will say "[player] has found [item]" and if it's you it points out, the item is automatically added to your loadout. No floating or nothing.

 

Also a joke about your mother saying "Take me".

Unless you play on a map where the enemy spawn doesn't have any ammo crates, then you're in trouble. The cloak and dagger allows you to take your time. The only advantage I've seen with the regular watch is that it encourages you to move quickly.

On nearly every map there's more than enough metal to make it from your spawn to their spawn without decloaking once, so if you know where the metal is that shouldn't be a problem. Also i do notice the c & d does encourage you to slow down, which isn't really a good thing because as a spy you should move around quickly so they don't know where you are.

I mainly prefer the cloak and dagger because you can stay out of sight for longer, which allows you to choose where you decloak. Alot of the time with the watch I have to make an emergency decloak RIGHT BEHIND THEM. It's pretty exciting, but I haven't had as much success with it.

I preferred the normal watch because, to be a successful spy you gotta be a fast spy. But the Cloak n' Dagger's good for ambushes though, for Defense, no doubt about that.

It makes me rage to see cloak and dagger spies staying invisible behind three or four enemies, just sitting there. 95% of cloak and dagger spies i've seen are absolutely worthless and stay invisible for half the game only to uncloak and make a fail stab on some sniper.

 

 

 

 

Spy is probably the weakest class in the game, if your playing with good people then you'd be lucky to get more than a couple backstabs in a game. The uncloaking sound can be heard through walls and from a long distance away and if you uncloak behind someone they're guarantied to turn around.

It's easier to get someone while they're fighting, since they'll be too busy fighting to turn around and risk getting killed. The CnD is hilarious though for causing paranoia since a spy is nearby and they could pounce at any time.
