Pyro changed/fixed

[armored cow]

So, Valve just released an update to Team Fortress 2 which took away the Backburner's +50hp.

I voted that it sucks, but it won't make me a bad Pyro.

Makes the game more balanced IMO.

That's how I feel too.

While I do like this update very much, I hate how the community whines so much, they actually get these things changed. There were at least 37 topics on the steam forums whining on this subject and they got it changed. A million threads were made about how "OP" the soldier is, and he got nerfed too.

But this update is pretty cool.

I think it's a smart move but to be honest the extra 50hp was why I used the Backburner. That and the cool snake head.

Another good fix is if a player kills themselves it credits the last person who injured them. Now when a soldier blows himself up after you nearly kill him you still get a kill. Hooray!

I like using Flamethrower any way...

I thought the same thing. Pyros lose 50HP but now they get a kill when a soldier kills them both with a rocket to the floor.

[Keptron]

Yeah, at least there won't be a bunch of noobs with Pyro yelling "ROFLMAO I WON, LOOK MAH SCORE, IAM DA B3ST!"

TF2 sucks
TF2 sucks so hard, that's why it have a lot of servers and players like me :o?

Wrong, you'll get it next time.

Lame. Should have knocked it down -25 health instead of the whole 50. No reason to use Backburner anymore now.

Uh.. what, 100% chance to crit from behind isn't good enough for you? Do you need auto-crits in front of people too?

Please. pre-pre nerf is was always 100% crits from behind. Then they "fixed" it, and it now suffers from the same problem that the Spy's backstab has; shitty client prediction.

It has such a narrow cone to crit from now it's ridiculous.

I have to agree.

Is there a way to find a good balance?

Facestabs are only funny when you're the spy.

XD

Honestly, I don't really have a problem with crits from behind as pyro. Spy, yes.

WHAT ABOUT BAM CRIT ROCKETS?
