Soldier is my favorite class anyway, so I'm not complaining.

Poor Engie needs something so badly, give him more sentries or something, I want a flamethrower one. Honestly, they should have given him the laser pistol, it doesn't feel right in the soldier's hands.

Since I play mostly Pyro and Engineer, it is only natural that I would be sore about the Heavy and Soldier getting all the cool stuff.

In fact my Pyro never had anything worth using since the Pyro update in 2008, until the Degreaser came out. Mind you, the Pyro naturally evolves well with the rest of the game with all these new projectiles to start throwing back.

I wish they woulda use the Griefblower from the polycount contest, it was a lot cooler than the degreaser.

I liked that entry. They could also make use of one of the many, many buildings submitted.

You know.

The ones with their animations, sounds and even gibs completed and ready for implementation.

It'd be cool if they used the new soldier weapons as a precedent to give the engie a laser sentry that lights people on fire. They could say he reverse engineered the soldier's stuff.

Also, they should give him a building that he'd be able to use in medieval mode.

It is funny, because there is actually a laser sentry kill icon in the grfs. Ever since that was spotted, the users have wanted the Engineer to have some form of laser sentry.

Plus points if I can have a laser mini-sentry. <3

New Darkstalkers announced at Comic-Con.

Let there be various confused mixed emotions towards Capcom.

Stuck on the Khezu... Giaprey armor isn't exactly the best for this fight. So, any tips for fighting it? Most likely I may be able to beat it with gear I'll be recieving tomorrow, when my friend and I play togeter, but..


So, here's my current set up:
Giaprey Armor set
Giaprey Claws + (working towards Snow Venom's branch)

I have a pitfall and shock trap made, but I have a hard time setting them up with my Felyne hardly doing much distracting. I also am running out of Green Sharpness (as to be expected of DS) and am just struggling with it's frequent electric-body attack (it's like a more annoying Lagiacrus with how frequent it is).

So, any tips and armor suggestions? Giaprey is clearly not cutting it. XD I'm thinking Vespoid, because I can possibly gem it to fix the Paralyzation problem and it has good Thunder Resistance. It's just getting those parts is not fun at all... XP

Soldier Fortress 2 huh, well I just dl'd it since it was free.



Anyway, I downloaded a game; . It's a short, yet interesting exploration platformer in the vein of Cave Story.



Probably not needed, but also shows the antagonist's origins. It's a bit clunky, and a bit harder to me however.

I don't think it's quite that bad, it's just that those classes are very straightforward and easy to play.

A friend of mine mains spy, and he's fallen in love with every item they've gotten save the Big Earner. Eternal Reward spies can be a nightmare to deal with if they're any good. I've also been able to be effective with the Dead Ringer + Enforcer.

I've also been able to take out heavies with the Soda Popper, and the Atomizer is extremely useful on certain maps.

Also the Bazaar Bargain is the most infuriating thing ever. I can't use it for crap, but the people who can ruin my day. Huntsman sniper is really fun though.

Really the classes that don't get the cool stuff are just Pyro, Engie and Medic, though in the case of medic their job is to heal you, and Valve has given them the ability to do so with all three weapon slots, I particularly like the crossbow. It'd be cool if they gave them a weapon like the medpack from the first game, maybe not make the infection spread, though.

It is unfortunate because I just so happen to hate dealing with Soldiers and Heavies, and they just so happen to be the most played class. I will ignore the fact the four classes available in the screenshot are just better than the others, because every class has some unique quality that is irreplaceable.

Heck, I got a funny experiment you can do:

Join a random vanilla pub server.
Join Spectator.
Watch the team that wins.

90% of the time it will be the team with more Heavies.

Like dropping buttered toast.
A wounded emu.
Feline graceful fall.
Edgar's coin.
A besieged tyrant.

The fate is predetermined.
