      Team Fortress 2 update Sniper VS Spy

      Anyone else loving this update? I have to say my fav part of it is the fact that you don't have to do achievements anymore to unlock weaponry. That was annoying as hell.

      Just got the Cloak and Dagger Watch for my Spy. Haven't had a lot of time to play around with it yet, but it's still pretty cool.

      I miss the old system. Achievement farming was fun and it was like a noticeable "TF2 event". But now all we have is complaints and whining and not getting to try out all the things they showed us for the whole week before the release. This is a very bad decision by Valve, seeing all the complaints.
      You might have gotten a new weapon right after playing for a bit, but others have been playing for 10 hours and haven't gotten anything or just copies of the old stuff. So yeah, this time I'm not really going to stand up for Valve, but I'm sure they'll fix it.
      Oh and I forgot... There are also a ton of bugs, which don't help the shitty situation either.

      I played it a bit today. I Learned that the game is a lot less fun when being sniped and being stabbed are your main causes of death.

      Probably be better when the class balance evens out (and the unlocks actually unlock).

      I really only liked TF2 when it first came out. After that, everyone started using the same type of classes :/

      It kind of pisses me off how the game seems to be getting more complicated and everything you can possibly do has a counter. This is good for game balance, but it also feels like everything you do is even more specific to certain situations.

      I just got it this weekend, I've been liking it a lot. Perhaps even too much, most of yesterday was kind of a blur. I don't know what the game used to be like, but I like the current balancing they have set up. I personally use all the classes pretty evenly (except mechanic, borrringgg) and find they all have good uses for different parts of the matches.

      I'm not liking the unlock system though. I don't mind the concept, but I hate how random it is. I wish it still achievement based cause that sounds like it'd be right up my alley.

      If anyone wants to game, my Steam account name (i think) is speeshums.

      Feel free to add me. Sourceyeahbaby.

      The randomness of the unlocks is becoming annoying since i've gotten three copies of the medic gun.

      Also, it's engineer, not mechanic And they are actually my fav class. Sniper is at my bottom.

      Same with me. Engi has almost twice the recorded play time of any other class for me. I would play sniper more, but I just feel like a useless douche on the team when I play it.

      (Why, why does the attacking team need 3 snipers!)

      Also, after about 5-8 hours I got... another damn Bonk soda. I wants me my unlocks.
