jarate > razorback

(they both replace SMG)

jarate is dead useful imo, the mini critz are awesome, and you can pee yourself and team mates, to get rid of the flames

still waiting for my huntsman, ambassador and dead ringer

the cloak & dagger is very nice

For some reason I always feel dirty when I've been peed on

Also, I don't think many people realise they can now put out flames with the flamethrower compression blast which leads to an awful lot of sad face going on when my health is slowly draining away due to fire and a pyro is just staring blankly at me.

Been on HH#1 for an hour or two and got the Jarate and the baseball for the scout - not tried that yet tho.

Mine is filling up, what happens when all the boxes are full?

You have to delete items if you want to keep new items.

Dist said:
Flaming arrows add a DOT effect to the target. If the DOT kills the target though and not the initial arrow strike, the pyro gets the kill not the sniper.

No they don't, I've gotten a flamethrower kill as sniper because of it.

MikeHunt79 · 27 May 2009 at 18:26

Yes!

I think I've got all the spy and sniper goodies, good to see someone with a hat tho.

thats why there is delete button.....

:/

So you've filled yours then?

psychas · 27 May 2009 at 18:36

no i did not u can delete 1 item at the time ^ i deleted duplicated natasha, as theres no point having duplicates at moment.

also lucky shizzle i wanted that bow and i still have only 1 new uncrackable death ringer

and spy is least playable class for me ;/

Skeeter · 27 May 2009 at 18:55

Its the whole randomness that annoying me. Idled for about 6 hours, unlocked 8 things, 5 of which were duplicates. Then Idled for about 10 hours.... and all I got was a duplicate Sandvich..... it make no sence?!?!

PikeyPriest · 27 May 2009 at 20:37

Yea, i joined an idle server and about 10 items were distributed within 5 minutes. 3 to the same person and they had been on the server for <5 minutes. I left idle for 3 hrs and got nothing. I must have 10+ hrs of playtime and have only got the longbow and 2nd natasha so far.

Lyon85 · 27 May 2009 at 20:57

Finally got my huntsman, and..

After all this fannying about I'm a bit burned out on the game though.

Nate--IRL-- · 27 May 2009 at 21:19

Do the hats do/give anything, or are they just for show?

Nate

DampCat · 27 May 2009 at 21:46

Just for show, but they're super rare apparently.

They just look stupid. The cloak and dagger is rarer for me

Skeeter · 27 May 2009 at 22:05

Anything that isnt a friggin pyro unlock is rare for me! 4 Axtinguishers, 3 BackBurners and 3 Flare Guns is stupid!

Stevev · 27 May 2009 at 22:08

Meh.

So now they decided to tell people that if friends is offline, you don't get any drops.... They could have told me that 2 days ago

Since I've turned friends on, I've had 4 drops.

SB118 · 27 May 2009 at 22:39

People seem to have it in for spies of late ...

millsy888 · 27 May 2009 at 22:50

not bad going so far
