Scout update "week"

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

I am hoping you can't use weapons when you are in god-mode...

[Hell-met]

You can, look at the picture.

Some of these updates lately have been extremely fucking stupid. Hell at first scout was a weak bitch and now he is an elitist cunt.

Wow.

Wow.

Don't you say a word.

What a shitty pistol unlock.

Good scouts will never give up their pistol. AMEN BROTHERS!

I don't know about that. I may. Reloading your scattergun is about just as good as shooting your pistol.

Primary Scattergun 6 32 85-105 (180 crit)
Secondary Pistol 12 36 20-22 (45 crit)

Considering that you'll never really light someone up with all 12 pistol shots. I don't think you're giving up too much. Plus, I think those pistol numbers are a little exaggerated. I've never seen anyone take 200+ damage in a pistol clip. Sure, you also lose some effectiveness from long range, when your opponents is low on health and you empty your scatter clip, but whatever, I'm not fighting someone from a mile away as a scout anyhow.

Don't think it makes you run faster.

You just get a neat motion blur effect and you are impervious to hitscan weapons.

I think it'll just make you faster. Being invulnerable to hitscan weapons would make scout fights ridiculous. Couple that in with some other classes, pyros who's only real defense against you is the shotty, and soldiers when they blow all 4 rockets; that would be way too broken.

so we have a baseball, a weapon that makes him effective against sentries, next we need the stupid fucking god-weapon and we have all of the worst shit from the Scout Update steampowered douche-fest

What are you even talking about? I'd be impressed if a scout could circle strafe a level 2 or 3 sentry well enough to kill it in a real fight, even if they're being speedy.

Weak bitch? Hardly. Elitist? I do not think it means what you think it means.

We also haven't even see what the new primary weapon is going to be. We also don't know how much damage (if any) the new bat does.

Can you use it like a bat and/or a ranged weapon? We can speculate as to what it will be like but won't really know until it's released. The pistol might not even be that big of a loss.

I suck at scout.

My least played class, not that anyone cares but this update is very "meh" to me.

[Drunken F00l]

I like the looks of the blurred up map behind the scout.

Hey, I didn't notice that. Interesting!
