Won't comment on the changes because i dont really have an opinion yet but the sandman is fucking annoying. I know one of Valve's policies about TF2 was NO STUN WEAPONS, originally anyway. It's not even that I die a lot while stunned, because I really DIDNT, it's just that I constantly - and this may ONLY be because there are a ton of scouts around - get stunned out of nowhere. It's just ANNOYING like nothing else in the game.

Actually I will say that these changes don't really address any of MY complaints about the sandman. Personally I like the idea of a universal stun time more, at least it would address the annoyance of scouts sitting halfway across the map just tossing balls.

WHY SO SERIOUS HAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

I played a game today and the sandman is seriously fucking annoying. Like in arena you just get 20 baseballs constantly flying into your base. It doesn't achieve ANYTHING other than annoy the fuck out of people I agree.

i can't connect to any servers.

also comp play people have been bitching about the sandman for a while. they're all really whiny and want to turn the game into a generic Q3 style shooter. for example they petitioned Valve to add an assault rifle to the Scout and an accurate rocket without splash damage to the Soldier.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

All the times I've played the scouts don't use the Sandman that much, every now and then I'll run out of the base at the start of the match and get nailed, but it's not constant. I do hate the Force of Nature though, pretty deadly against Spies and Medics. I think the classes play pretty even, but can only imagine what all the other classes will get, especially spies and engineers. Spies will get an emp grenade to replace the Sapper and Engineers will get mobile turrets or something.

The novelty is pretty worn off on the sandman already. And now that it gives a 50% armor to the enemies you can't kill anyone with it and also it is so tedious trying to get some of the achievements that require sandman kills.

EvilDaed already has a mod that allows him to have fully functional flying turrets (with controls like a plane) on his server

So how's it different apart from style? Is one second charge time shorter? I haven't played in a long time

Dead people.

the difference is probably going to be limited range in exchange for much faster charge and i'm betting the arrows will also do continuous damage until they're removed by a medkit, like being set on fire.

I think it was leaked on purpose, given recent events.

I really hope the throwable sappers become reality, and that they add a "werewolf" sort of gamemode in where everyone tries to guess who the spy is before you have a knife between your ribs.

The vid was pretty rad but that's a given with the spy.
