jjrox32 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Pyro is good against spies, but that's kinda balanced out by how much he/she sucks vs. all the other classes. Pyro is awesome, fire + airblast + axtinguisher = beast.(No hats though :cry: ) Pyros problem is getting in close... Any good player will completely dominate a pyro just by staying out of range. Through maps that require you to get to something draws anyone in the Pyro's range. ;) That would be ambushing, then? Because yeah, that's really the only way to play pyro against semi-competent people. Even still, a lot of classes can still gib a pyro point blank before the pyro can kill them. Scouts can land a couple meatshots (200+ dmg), soldiers/demos can land 2 rockets/pipes, etc in the time it takes for a pyro to kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is landing those shots while you're on fire, flailing in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrox32 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 We can have this argument until we're blue in the face. Why don't we just go into a game and see how many times you manage to kill me as pyro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't we just go into a game and see how many times you manage to kill me as pyro. :thumbup: I'm not even that good but I don't have problems with pyros. Also on the spy topic I find that I don't have a huge issue with pyros spy checking. Sure, sometimes it gets pretty [bleep]ing annoying when they just randomly shoot over by you but it doesn't happen to me often. Of course I'm really good at jukeing people with the C&D too. Oh and it is funny as [cabbage] to kill a scout 1v1 with the revolver as a spy. It honestly happens more than you'd expect, some scouts are terrible. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Random. It'd be real cool if you got all the achievements for the class that you'd get their hat automatically. Only saying that because I don't need many more for spy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 The pyro's air blast sounds mighty useful in this map. :lol: "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzle229 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Gah, when I try to change my weapons only the defaults are there, though I'm using what I had equipped yesterday, and when I look at class loadout it says "Cannot connect to Steam." Well I'm logged in on the main site, and I restarted the program itself, and it still doesn't work for some reason. :? Get back here so I can rub your butt.

I think I'm up to 220,000 or so, something like that. And I'm almost at 24 hours as Pyro, too. Awesome. I think I'm trying to make a taunt kill vid, but it's a lot harder then I would have thought.

I'm doing mostly pyro kills, but I might slide in a few sniper, maybe even DR spy if I can. I've gotten 2 so far, and on the same guy :lol: Ah, snipers. So oblivious. The second time, his buddy sniper saw me but was too late. I managed to taunt the first, but the second killed me. I may have killed him with afterburn. I've got them recorded as a demo, you can make movie files with the console, too, I think. Also, I fail so hard at the hiding around the corner method. I've come close so many times, but been just slightly off. Command the Murderous Chalices!

jjrox32 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 There's a way to turn demo files into avi's, however it's a little complicated and fills up your hard drive insanely fast because of the quality it's at. For the record, I think knex mastered humiliation taunt killing. At the end of every game he gets at least 1 taunt kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
