I stopped playing Medic after binging it halfway through last year. I got pretty good, but it got pretty boring compared to how much I was enjoying other classes. As I believe I've said in this thread before numerous times, I mostly only play Medic now if no one else on a decent-sized team is playing it.

[EDIT:] And yeah. The DFC server has been crapping out a fuckton recently. Time to switch providers?

I've been playing sniper and demoman with some scout the last few days. I got 28 points as my best as a demo.

[Jakkarra]

That's odd, so do I!

[ILikePie]

Yay, TF2 works again. I can finally join the fun.

New update is out, http://store.steampowered.com/news/?appids=440.

Not sure I like the changes to some of the classes, particularly the nerf to the pyro's flamethrower.

[Dr. Johbson]

I would call it a buff, myself. 

[Tradanbattlan]

Is it just me, or is Steam's new UI completely buggy and unreliable? I constantly disconnect, and I can't play TF2 now either

 The reduced afterburn time means the same damage is done in less time, meaning that victims have less of a time to put the flames out. Could be nice, although it makes the pyro slightly more reliant upon afterburn. But this also means the backburner does normal damage now, thus making it slightly more useful. Except for the minicrit buff.

 I suppose overall this is a Pyro class buff. I'll have to play to find out.

 Also, fire arrows for all!

[Soulwynd]

I liked most of the changes, actually.

Specially for the heavy and pyro's AB.

I need to test the new Bonk! refresh rate tho. I loved using that thing.

[ToonyMan]

Faster mini-gun rev time?

Awesome.

[dragnar]

I think the pyro's flames shouldn't appear on invisible characters. I have no ulterior motives for this desire. Nope, none at all.

Seriously, I like most of the changes, especially the change to fire arrows.

[Greiger]

I won't have to light my pants on fire to hold a lit arrow anymore! Yay!

[debvon]

Hopefully these pyro tweaks will get rid of some w+m1 pyros.. but probably not. I think the direct flamethrower damage reduction was necessary.

[Zai]

Changed bow so you can start charging it while you're jumping, but you can't fire until you're on the ground.

Dun like the "can't fire until on ground" part, but oh well. =/

Added a slight speed reduction to stunned players.

THANK YOU.

• Airblast re-fire delay reduced by 25%.
• Airblast ammo usage reduced by 20%.
• All reflected rockets/grenades/arrows now mini-crit.
• Airblasting enemies into environmental deaths now awards the death credit to the Pyro.

Yea!

[Sensei]

I see they're trying to encourage airblasting- don't think the normal flamethrower needed the nerfs though.
