Team Fortress 2, and my ideas for it

I can't begin to mention how many times I've had a medic healing me then stop healing me instead of Übering me me to make that much needed push into the enemy base.

And almost every time I play some 2fort on Doorman is God or Critfest, the RED team (my team) has few or no medics or heavies, and the BLU team has two of each.

>_>

I feel kinda guilty for training my brother to be one of those medics, but I'll normally tell him to heal someone else who needs it if it doesn't look like I'll die.

Adding on to this idea from elsewhere: when having the blut out you will not regenerate HP. If you switch to the medigun/saw, you'll start regenerating again but if you switch to the blut your healing resets (and by this I mean that you know how the passive healing builds up over time if you don't take additional damage? If you switch to the blut that counter resets as if you took damage.) It's not much, but it's the best idea I've seen for balancing the gun so far.

Medic is the only class I feel I'm "good" at since I heal ****ing EVERYONE I see that isn't overhealed and I can juggle people pretty well in the middle of combat (unfortunately this tends to lead to me healing a lot of spies since I'm a tardface)


unless I'm playing on Draku's server because then I just go in to retard mode

WHY DID YOU STOP HEALING ME RIGHT WHEN THE ENTIRE RED TEAM CAME AT ME

Reminds me of long ago when we were playing arena and I was pissed at Draku for something so I always refused to heal him, heh

LUPO NEEDED HEALING YOU **** HE HAD LIKE 30 HP AND CALLED MEDIC LIKE SEVEN TIMES

ps why does this always make me laugh

And now I've learned something.

i had a similiar idea for the ubersaw

normal saw has hp regeneration

ubersaw replaces it with uber generation (really slowly).

probably really bad idea eh

Yeah, still overpowered as most classes with less health fare better without the HP regen, and it means that there's a time where it's impossible for you not to have an uber unless you're dead (as the generation would eventually reach full, with the ubersaw hits speeding it along even more, aswell as the normal charge rate).

Erm...I assume using this the 25% boosts would be removed too

Either way it seems a silly idea to me.

backburner would be nicer with slightly longer flame reach imo. as it stands i don't see a reason not to use the normal one what with the ability to confuse ubers by blasting them upwards

now to wait for the complaints

flamer range is already pretty decieving, twice the length of the particles or so, when fully extended

bb is better if you want to do damage, imo

iirc, backburner already has a longer reach than the normal flamethrower. But yeah, I prefer using the flamethrower too because I love the airblast.

no

Real men don't need a backburner

Although for Arena it's occasionaly useful, but it still doesn't beat being able to survive rockets.

"i can't get behind people like someone with skill so i will say that the backburner is bad"

TF2 needs drivable vehicles.

Like a BLU leviathan or something.
