Official Team Fortress 2 April Update Thread

Why is it when some characters are ubered and are getting hammered by sentrys they cant advance? Ive been ubered before as a soldier before and the sentrys pushed me back. Tonight though it seems ubered pyros dont suffer from this and can charge straight through the barrage.

The tip is to tell the medic to go out first. The sentry can only aim and fire at one person at a time, thus leaving you to take it out.
 
This thread seems to have died - how is everyone doing?

I'm up to 30 on the achievements, including two of the milestones obviously so 8 left to get. Although I've had some contrived sessions with friends to get a few of them, I'm trying my best to do as many as possible properly - including "First Do No Harm" which was seriously hard!

I'm sure a few of these are all but impossible to get in normal play unless you "fluke" it, which is a bit unfair tbh.
 
I think the hardest to get is helping a heavy get 20 kills without either of you dying. One headshot from a sniper or a backstab from a spy and it's gameover :(
 
Just bought the orange box via steam. So bored of sitting around at home, bored of bf2142 and thought why not..

TF2 19% and 1.2 MB/s :rolleyes:
 
Bit of info from the next release now out in the Update news bit.
I wasn't expecting anything for a while but could be sooner than I thought :)
We've almost completely wrapped up the next big release for Team Fortress 2, which will focus on the Pyro class, along with the Meet the Sniper movie. We've spent time looking at how the recent Medic release went, and have rolled feedback from that release into the new item designs for the Pyro and into the design of the achievements required to unlock those items. One item, shown here in concept form, will be the Axtinguisher. Although it does about half of normal damage to standard run-of-the-mill non-burning enemies, once you light someone on fire the Axtinguisher will guarantee a critical hit.

Along with all of the new content, we're also going to be making some significant changes to the Pyro class for everyone, regardless of whether they have unlocked any new items.
