Yeah, the thing about the tomislav is Sasha actually spins up nearly instantly as is, and the heavy's health more than covers the moment of spinup time. If you can aim your 500 dps in vaguely the right direction at close range, it honestly has no downside. Now, if an unlock boosted my walking speed while firing instead of halving a time at the beginning of fire, I would be all ears.

The think is the tomislav basically completely protects heavy's from scouts.
That spin up time was the way that scouts could kill heavys without getting filled with bullets.

Anyone have a cute/funny Name/Description combo? Or a planned one?

I named my Your Eternal Reward "My Suit"/"You got blood on it."

When I told someone that was my plan, they donated a name tag AND a description tag, so I thought that was a good sign.

Tomislav is god. A silent, violent ninja GOD.

As for the speed boost, get a whip soldier. The speed boost applies even when spun up; spinning you move as fast as unspun, unspun you move like a medic :P

I mainly use the Tomislav because it is always really accurate for some reason.

As for name/description combos,

"The Rocket Launcher strikes you in the head. The severed part flies off in an arc!"

Sorta like that?

I'm going to use something like that on my ☼Iron Repeating Crossbow☼ (AKA Natascha, since it is the gun which I have gotten the most use out of as Heavy.)

I think, if I get a tag, I'm gonna call my YER "Look Behind You" with a description tag of, "When someone shouts spy, you don't trust team mates." or something. Every time I backstab a froobie, I am helping them out with ADVICE.

The YER allows for some amazing things, assuming you can get behind the enemy lines.

Just as an example, it works amazingly well with heavy-medic teams. The heavy's looking one way, the medic stops healing him, but he's obviously still there...

I'm having some trouble with my custom hitsound. "tf_dingaling_wav_override" is apparently an invalid sound, and a 3-second clip I made and named hitsound.wav, placed into the tf/sound/ui directory simply makes the "ding" totally silent.

What am I doing wrong?

 I assume you need to place the file in a specific place, but I don't know where that is. You'll have to google it.

...tf/sound/ui...

My problem is that Instead of getting the sound I want, I'm getting nothing at all.

Fixed it - the sound I'm using is the last 3 seconds of Mind Heist, and it's a very low frequency tone. I just need to set tf_dingaling_volume to at least 5.00 to hear it.

Ah, the sweet symphony of someone being lit aflame by my flamethrower...

And I've found the so called hacker. ^2<^9pTsD^2> ^2Khorne
Part of our group. So insult him and follow him around insulting him if you want.

No it's not.  The guy was ^8N-^8O-^8O-^8N-^8E

And I'm pretty sure he wasn't hacking anyway.
