I'm not really going to bother playing again until they're nerfed.

Huh, I've been owning soldiers as scout and sniper recently (my two most played classes). Soooo easy to dodge
I was wondering why last night I was in a game where a Soldier had a rocket launcher type weapon that shot what looked like lasers. He also so happened to help score a lot of points for my team, not sure if it was mainly due to this Cow Mangler or not.
So.
The Patch on August 3rd added a bunch of Promo items for the QuakeCon pack.
Featuring:
"The Wingstick", a misc item for the Engineer for pre-ordering RAGE
"The Pip-Boy", a misc item for the Engineer for owning Fallout: New Vegas
"The Anger", a hat for the Sniper for owning BRINK
"The Tamrielic Relic", a hat for the Heavy for pre-ordering The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
and most importantly...
"The Original", a Rocket Launcher for the Soldier for owning Quake 4
The Original brings back memories...
I would like it if I wasn't attached to my Liberty Launcher currently. Been running with soldier as of late - still haven't decided on a secondary weapon to compliment the Launcher (other than the stock shotgun for spy checking/finishing off enemies).
Either the stock shotgun (or that other unlockable shotgun, never tried that) is the best alternate for the soldier, really. Especially if you have a 3-shot rocket launcher.
I still prefer the regular rocket launcher sometimes, though. It's so much easier to kill sentries with.
Oh, and I hate the Direct Hit and the Black Box.
Black Box is a useless weapon, it's really more of a crutch for people who can't get a pocket (medic). Direct Hit is a good weapon if you can actually aim, albeit a little hard to counter because it's fast.
Also, i'm pretty mad that they make you buy a bad game (Quake 4) to get The Original. I mean, if it was the good quake games, it'd be fine, or TFC, since that's the reason it is important to the game, but really, Quake 4?
Yeah. Quake 4 has nothing to do with the original Quake (which is where Team Fortress started). Why couldn't it have been "have the original Quake to get the original Rocket Launcher"?
Especially since Quake has been on Steam for at least two years now. (I bought the id Complete Pack a few years back). Or at least they should've had Quake 4 in the complete pack. But noooo.
At least we'll be able to craft it. Maybe.
I'm assuming you guys saw the Chinese rip off TF2 right?
Gotta love the sexified sniper as well.
But yea, I'm also hoping the Original is craftable. s:
I find it a bit disturbing that as a Medic I can easily roll in the top 3 for most points on my team just by healing and doing the occasional Uber push, without ever killing a single person. Is this supposed to be normal?
Also, is Hard an appropriate setting to train myself when Off-line? At least for me, it's much harder for my Bot team to win than it is with a real team. On the other hand, the Bot Medics never seem to heal anyone other than a Heavy or themselves and all other kinds of stupid derp happen like a Spy standing still for the entire match, heh.
Original seems to be craftable, from the email Robin sent out.
And don't play bots, IllegallySane.
Infection, it is normal for that to happen as medic. You usually disregard medics if you want to compare points.
Robin said after the promo, it should be craftable.
OMG THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING.
^ seen it.
Pretty cool video. Sentry gun looks legit.
