Looks like valve are looking to make changes to balance some of the items better for competitive play. I'm hoping for lots of interesting changes.

I'm hoping the stupid Sandman gets fixed, same with the Huntsman.

It is a good idea for them to do more large scale testing with the updates so that they dont break something too much.

PUT THE DAMN HEALTH BACK ON THE BACKBURNER!


Ok, maybe I don't need it anymore but I still feel gipped on losing that.

you might as well just say "break the game and make the overpowered piece of shit pyro even more overpowered"

Heh, yeah. That extra health on the backburner was pretty insane. I remember tanking sentries that I had no right to be able to kill with it.

I say if we're giving that pyro health back, we should also give him the full damage at the tip of his flame like how it was when the update was first released. Also 301 foot flames, because 300 isn't cutting it anymore!

I find it funny that you all call pyro such an easy class and make fun of it and then turn around and say it is overpowered...how could such a "simpleton" class be overpowered?

Easily :)

Flame that reaches so far and kills people faster than a rocket to the face :)
I dont mind pyro's as they are, but give them any more of a buff and its insane what they can do, no matter your skill with them.

it's simple to say they're overpowered and easy, them being overpowered MAKES it an easy class. you kill half the team with your super 300 foot flame then anyone that escapes dies from burning

I don't think pyros are overpowered in their current state. Then again, they are a lot easier to deal with when you play soldier :)

Yeah, currently they are annoying but balanced well enough.

Confrimed things

Yeah, I am wary of the "confirmed" things. Aspects of them sound neat but others sound bleh.

I'm a little dubious about the Flame-resistant spy suit...though I'll gladly trade away my revolver to pick that up. 90% flame reduction on top of my already ridiculous use of the Dead Ringer? Yes please!
