Giordano Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 On a head on basis, soldier is the hardest to kill for me. Cuz the whole rocket @ feet thing.

obfuscator Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I don't find soldiers hard at all, I prefer to take them from a distance(20-30 feet) which generally means you can dodge the rockets and they can't shoot them at their own feet. Crap heavies are easy...good heavies are harder but not impossible depending on the environment.

Giordano Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well I was talking with the FaN, sorry for leaving that out. With distance with Scattergun becomes easier but longer. Can't say anything about his new pea pistol shooter shotgun My best class without a doubt: Spy. Who would of guessed.

Giordano Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Apparently so, but I don't think I would be good with it. I'm too used to being up close with Scatter/FaN. But hey, I said that about the Dead Ringer too. #1 Watch in my opinion. <3: "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."

Shiny Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I find the clock and dagger in general a lot more versatile. I got 13 kills and no dying with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I find the clock and dagger in general a lot more versatile. I got 13 kills and no dying with it.Can you get around the map effectively enough, or should I say fast enough? If not, the CnD isn't helping. 13 kills and no deaths doesn't mean anything if you aren't causing mass paranoia, breaking engineer nests, and other silly shenanigans. The DR and IW are better in that regard. Surprisingly, it's worse in pubs than in higher competitive matches. Probably because spies are usually employed as a "one life" deal, where one of the scouts will swap to spy to quickly dispose of the medic, even if it kills them. And losing the medic usually puts you at an absurd disadvantage. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal. OPEN WIDE HERE COMES THE HELICOPTER.

Shiny Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Fair call. I do think that mass paranoia thing is definitely better with the dead ringer now you say it. It is especially fun getting half the team chasing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orpheus Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Yeah, I'd love to play with you aussies/new zealanders, but as Shiny's seen, 250 ping isn't that workable, even if I was doing alright before getting kicked for high ping.

Shiny Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I think I can play with an asian population, with 120 ping or so. I found that hard. When I was a huge noob I played on 300+ ping servers and wondered why I was getting owned so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furah Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I do find that CnD is a worse watch, except for when it's 2 people on the server as they get extremely paranoid. All it does is encourage spies to camp in one spot for 5-10 minutes waiting for the 'perfect moment' where they usually fail. Ever since I bought the Polycount Pack I've only used the DR. The only nuisance for me is not being able to disguise straight away. Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement. Quote of 2013. PCGamingWiki - Let's fix PC gaming!

Well I do, but not to the extent of dying and not getting close to killing him. It's so easy to lure people into your sentries or your teammates, it's unbelievable. Then we got the pyros who's magical fire can still reach you even if you're far away. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."

Seriously, people will start keeping an eye on their backs the instant they see a backstab in the killfeed. There's a reason they're so feared. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight.

Furah Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 The razorback is the spy's best friend. A razorback sniper who I can keep out of my melee distance will never kill me. Paranoid enemies are easy to kill too. Just make sure they see you going around a corner while cloaking. As soon as you're cloaked go back and get behind them.

Dupin Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I'm thinking about buying this game. Is it worth the $20? Pros/cons? Also, I've noticed some weekends it's only $10 on Steam, does this happen regularly? Lastly, got any tips for a TF newbie? Thanks for any advice.

Alg Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 See if you can get it as a CD. I bought my copy at best buy for $10 not too long ago. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Buy it off Steam. It regularly is at a $10 sale price. And, unlike a CD, it will always be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dupin Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Bought it from Steam for $20. Was feeling rich. Now I've gotta read up on the Wiki so I know what's going on. Are there servers for noobs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Cons:?No perks,No aim down sightsNo machine gunsCartoony graphics :rolleyes: TF2 > CoD. That should be enough reason to buy it! But yeah, I'm late on my post. Go pick a regular server, I never came across a "purely noob" server. For a first class to play, I suggest soldier for it is the easiest to control until you get a manage on tactics, maps, and gamemodes.
