That's because you don't receive items on reaching milestones anymore, I thought.  You know, picking shit up randomly...

No no, there is milestones and picking shit up randomly. I got all my unlocks from milestones. Some people have not been receiving theirs until a few hours after achieving the milstone.

[WiiClock]

direct hit is so good.
and i like the sword

[PowerGloveClock]

i found the buff banner and earned all the milestones, have yet to get any of the new weapons i also haven't found any hats yet although i'm sort of all set with my bill hat and the gibus

[TequilaClock]

Oh yeah, increased drop rate on Camera Beard. Got mine a couple of hours ago.

SUCK IT

It was my very first hat when they released this update and I was like OMG LOOK I GOT A HAT, but yesterday I got a second one and I was like "huh."

you should give me your second one

[Steve]

i haven't found any hats, have got all soldier unlocks though par the boots.

[SoBe Clock]

The only hat I have is the Cheater's Lament.

I want hats.

I'm not usually one to complain that an item is overpowered, but Direct hit needs a nerf. 150 damage on a direct shot is too much, that kills a bunch of the classes in a single hit!

Honestly it's great enough with the 80% increased speed and lowered splash but I think the damage is too high.

Not really, because the damage boost is rewarded for being able to hit them directly.
Heavy has enough health to take one, scouts are too fast to et a half decent shot on.
Just keep moving and the direct hit isn't much of a problem.


As for hats, i only have the Scouts batter's hat that is a single class hat, the only pother i have is ghastly gibus that i wear on my demoman 24/7

THEN L2P CORPSEGRINDER U NUB.

Don't you dare compare soldiers with direct hit to faggot, luck-dependant "snipers".

[SockpuppetClock]

Technically if you are at a certain range from someone with the direct hit, it's literally impossible to dodge it because of how far you can move in the time frame and the size of your hitbox.

So "just keep moving" is a pretty ridiculous suggestion.

Pyros can airblast, though. So at least they stand a bit of a chance.
Also, depending on the map, getting that close in the first place can be a problem.

[TequilaClock]

I just tried the buff banner. I don't find it that overpowered, and its a bit hard to activate.

[Marlin Clock]

I like the direct hit, its more my kind of weapon.

Funny thing, I farmed for a couple achievements in order to get the Direct Hit, and then when I joined the server, the first new weapon I got was the Direct Hit.

I hope you're only talking about huntsman snipers, if so I agree.

dude no way just spam rockets and you can fill it by killing like 2 enemies then if you want to go back for ammo or health or something just activate it when your teammates are nearby and they can kill anyone you didn't, its not overpowered but its nice

[WiiClock]

do buff banner and jarate stack?

[Flounderpa]

Bump for the release of the Contribution Site

maybe we can get something Clock Crew Related there

[ProqagandaClock]

Spy is still my absolute favorite class and in my opinion the most OP in Arena etc. UNLESS the entire other team is good and has 2+ Pyros.

It is not as versitile in other gameplay mods but still great and impossible to ever kill if played right.
But soldier is more of a meatshield and tiebreaker in a sense.

[Marlin Clock]

Dead Ringer is a cheap piece of shit I just want you to know that.

[Odo]

why are people complaining about soldiers when demomen are on the loose

edit: also i hardly play soldier or demo so i present no bias here.
