Unless I've posted here before..
I have recently obtained TF2! Huzzah!
Anyway, after spending some time with my friends on a server, I have discovered that my favourite class is..
Ze Medic!

I really do like this game, and I don't understand how I can ever go back to console gaming now..
[I've always loved the PC but the FPS's.. They felt like they were missing something.. Hrmm.. To me at least.]
But TF2 is just.. Great..
And I've been looking at the Fancy Vs Nasty [fake] update, and I was wondering.. How would I go about obtaining the marvellous Detective Noir?
I've downloaded it to replace my selected hat.. But then what?

[Collic]

hmm off the top of my head it's a reskin so you'll need to place it in the right folder, steam forums or fpsbanana will show you where. Be aware though, it may not show on some servers due to the sv_pure cvar, I think. I'd give you better advice, but I've never bothered with custom skins myself.

EDIT: I just grabbed it myself and looking at it all you need to do is unrar it (winrar is available from http://www.rarlabs.com if you don't already have it) to: Steam\steamapps\[username]\team fortress 2\tf. Let it overwrite any files and it should work fine. Test it out by creating a server before you go online with it ,because as i said, server settings may stop it from displaying even if it is correctly installed.

Yeah, what Duke said. Also, pipes still fire faster than airblasts, a demo can easily out-fire a pyro.

But can he out-fire boooollet?

"We have buffed the Pyro with increased intelligence and tact. This causes bullets being fired at him to start to veer away due to his intelligenting them away."

 The pyro shall now outsmart boolet.

Meet the Psychic Pyro?

Team Fortress 2

I hate you Valve, I hate you I hate you I ha-

- Flamethrower changes
- Increased base damage 10%
- Afterburn duration increased (from 6 to 10)

I Love you Valve!

- Flares that hit a burning player at mid-to-long range will crit

Ok.

- Reduced Backburner damage bonus from 20% to 15%

Sounds good...


EDIT but not really edit: Damn ninja...

I like the flare change, but the rest seems like they are doing a complete 180 on their previous changes.

[Bandages]

Pyros are pretty much the same as normal except now flare guns are useful, and their airblasts are still way too strong.

Overall, People should be happy about this.

[Sensei]

Cool- The afterburn is important for the pyro, in regards to spies. Also the flare gun crits actually give him a pretty powerful weapon. The airblast should make up for the loss in damage as well. This seems better; maybe we'll see if people start complaining (not likely the pyros though).

[SHAD0Wdump]

Didn't the flare gun already fully crit on burning people? Or was it minicrits?

neither?

[Sensei]

I didn't think it did...

[SHAD0Wdump]

It did at least minicrits. I know this from having used it alot. I'll have to experiment with it again.

Maybe on your server?
