I'm getting lots of double items that I can't trade as a F2P player, and I don't have a credit card. If receiving a gift can make my account premium, I'll give Ali Baba's Wee Booties in exchange for buying me the cheapest item in the store so I can start trading. If not I guess I could share my Steam login info with someone trustworthy so he can make the purchase on my account and send himself the boots.

 My god so many dings it's amazing.

It goes from so many dings to a buzz.

[breadbocks]

as well as changing the pitch depending on how much damage you deal.

I just realized what this means.

Ode to Joy on the Ambassador, anybody?

That's why it's beautiful.

[Aklyon]

So, how do you change it, then?

[Duke 2.0]

tf_dingalingaling 1
tf_dingaling_pitchmaxdmg 80
tf_dingaling_pitchmindmg 120
tf_dingaling_volume 0.75
tf_dingaling_wav_override

All relevant commands, with my recommended settings. The wav_override one can change the sound effect to whatever sound you want, so if there are any game hit sounds you like customization is there for the taking.

Say, a man screaming no u? You could have a *lot* of fun with replays like that. Shoot a guy; "NO U"; Light a guy up; "NO UNUONUONUOONUONOUNUON"

And then somebody coats them all in Jarate, and the dings become minicrits.

Oh gawd, the ear-destroying glory!

I love the hit noise as demoman and it also helps a lot with the scout pistol.

[PTTG??]

I say replace the sound with the spy decloak noise.

I actually once set my dingaling to the wilhelm scream. You should have heard me playing heavy. AUGUAUAUUAUGUGUAHAUGHAUHHAUGUAHHAUGHHAUGH!!

I would basically just be running around screaming and shooting in every direction.  Back when I PvPed a lot in World of Warcraft I would go into attack mode whenever I heard a similar sound, even in real life.

EDIT:  I gave up trying to get good at scout, and have returned to hating him and everything about him.  It's for my own good.  That rocket magnet thing hasn't stopped and I've lost all good humor about it.  If I turned a corner and got hit with a rocket, or a pyro sprouted out of the ground behind me one more time I was going to have a heart attack.

I only rarely use the scout myself. The only classes I get killed more often as are sniper and spy.

I'm usually a terrible spy unless the enemy is running around in our base (I got something like 5 or 6 backstabs in a row once when that was going on, without Your Eternal Reward, over half a year ago, and that's pretty much the only time I was ever successful as a spy).

I generally just don't play sniper. If I try to counter-snipe a sniper, I just get sniped. If I try to snipe someone else, I end up just wasting my time. I've had some success with the huntsman in the past, but there's too much luck determining if I hit, and whether I get shot and die, and it's quicker and more effective to be another class using a better weapon instead, or be a medic assisting someone else to kill them.

I tend to do best as demoman, medic, or engineer, but I occasionally switch to other classes as needed (soldier can deliver immense amounts of damage to a single target with the Direct Hit, but is very slow, Pyro can light an entire group on fire and moves fast, or light someone on fire from far away, including snipers, etc).

The key to scout is to of course take routes no one else is taking, and if someone sees you, run away and come back at a dif angle.  There are usually 3-5 different ways into the next "area".  Find one not being used and sneak in behind enemy lines, find someone, approach from side or behind and fire two scattershots, back off and run away(Or pistol them to death).  If it's a heavy, you might be able to jump on their head and bat them to death before they can realize you're actually above them.(Hit indicators don't point up)  If you're no good at that, a quick two shot and run away still helps your team take down the heavy later.
