So, should it be implied that the Scout is getting 6 updates based on that website? Or are they giving two characters 3 updates each?

They are also adding another game mode I think but he has 3 weapons so each of the 3 can be upgraded. Also I have a question can you be VAC banned for achievement hacks? only answer if you know

Keep in mind one thing, you will destroy your stats

my pyro has like 721 kills being my best..

its quite annoying because i decided i wanted to go legit later

you can reset your achievements, but you cant reset your other stats

My son took Heavy to a bot farm server and just sat there at a spawn and just killed hundreds of bots. Messed up my stats big time. He was banned from using my account.

Are achievements that important to you? Why?

I like getting them through regular gameplay, it makes me feel as if I have actually achieved something. To each is own though.

Yep, scout is a fun class to play. I enjoy getting the new toys.

Scout, sniper and spy are all I play.

Hmm, new maps:

Arena Watchtower

CP Junction

I never play arena maps, so no idea about that one, but Junction is pretty decent, though I have not playe dit in a while. Some good tight spots for close combat and a lot of little hallways and areas to get into. It will be interesting to see what, if any changes they made.

Not really interested in this update. I think I have like 3 hours on scout... I have over 300 hours total in TF2. It's even worse cause I get raped by them most of the time.

I've practiced as Scout in CP maps that aren't very populated. They are a very fun class and can kill most classes with ease.

It's nice to see Valve making more defenses against TEH ALLMIGHTI UBERZ!! Maybe a Scout and Pyro can team up against an ubered pair. The Scout can knock the ball on the Medic, then the Pyro can airblast the Heavy/Soldier/Demoman away from the Medic, breaking the pair. Or vice versa, whatever.

This requires too much coordination. I don't think it'll work in pubs. I rarely see pyros using the airblast on ubers as is.

True, but I'm a stickler for playing games without reverting to cheats or not earning upgrades legimitely.

I'm a killer scout so I'm pretty excited. I'm an even more killer heavy which makes me more excited!

In my opinion, no Pyro on defense should ever be using the backburner. Compression is such a useful and often important tool I can't see why anyone playing defense would ever use it, unless maybe they are just stat whores and not concerned about team play.

i don't think i'm a stat whore, but sometimes i play backburner pyro on defense when i pretty much play offense on defense...its not a classical defense but it throws teams off nonetheless because you're out there where they're not expecting you, picking off key members of the team.
