I stopped playing engi muchly because my sentries are so weak, area denial is fine, except you never get any action. Then a demo comes along and BOOM.

Airblast is total win, I love when soldiers frustration reaches top and he takes out his shotgun and run towards flamethrower range

Airblast isn't that good, soldier just has to make the pyro get out of sync, which is quite easy to do

Or you can pull out your shotty, hit them a few times and if they draw if just wip out the launcher and kill them

Where it the freaking website update? Its freagking Tuesday! And it said it will come out on freaking Monday? For fraking fucks sake! Valve will fucking die!

What are you talking about? The site update is here and it's absolutely ridiculously funny! Can't wait for the announced TF2 comic Valve will be releasing. ^^

By the way - the poll states that the items will be released by Valve? Did they finally see the light? No more unlocks through achievements or simply a time-delay for underachievers? If that's the case I'll love Valve with double strength - they really are the most awesome video company EVER!

Which of these three Scout unlockable items should be released first?

It's unclear what exactly Valve means with this, but the weapons are still gonna be unlockables = bound to achievements.

It reads to me that you'll get the first unlock after the fire milestone, i don't think they'll change it.

FaN looks good, jump in take your (probably only 2) shots then get out, it's probably more powerful than the scattergun, due to limited reload speed.

doesn't it nearly look like ze old scattergun? :S

jeez, this might actually be a contender! if it has 4-5 shells and allows me to jump to new heights... I might just have to try it out!

It should all be released today i think, they said out on tuesday. expect it about 11pm GMT. If it's out tomorrow i think many peeps will be dissapointed.

I'ved played scout as my main for the past 2 / 3 weeks, think i've improved loads, nearly my most played class now!

Now it's gonna annoy me that everyone else wants to play scout, haha.. and the reason i started playing scout was ready for update... haha.. such a hippocrit.

Yeah, I think they are simply asking which of the items should be unlocked with the first milestone!

Afaik it will be released wednesday as the other patches were? (info days + 1 day to release). Got no source, but that was my logical thinking.

"Made available to all players" sounds as if it were an automatic process, not connected to achievements...

how about 2-3 days all spa servers go scout only ?

or scout team vs heavy team

Blaze the enemy a little 2. Blast him away 3. When hes confused about why he is flying take out the shotgun 4. and before he can think of anything shoot the living crap out of him

I'm kinda pissed, due to some factors, might be the less sleep I had (watching the oscars), might be pwnage tv, because of that I missed nearls 2 maps and had to watch on quadtv, and then this delay, if they cant make it in time, then they shouldnt set dates, when they promise it to come out/update. That is something I cant stand at all.

They didn't phrase it like that "which item would be unlocked first" etc., they wrote: "We will use the results of this poll to determine the order in which the new Scout items are made available to all TF2 players!" "Made available to all players" sounds as if it were an automatic process, not connected to achievements... Well, we'll see - after all I'm not one to care too much since I won't be grinding for achievements anyway. ;-)
