    I ran a tournament to find the "best" loadout years ago. The format was a bit different, it was a 1v1 MGE tournament, but just like this players could choose any base class and any loadout, with the restriction that only engineers could build and only spies could disguise and cloak. This was way back in 2014, so balance was very different. In particular this was during the days of charge turn scripting.
    The winning loadout, and it was clear without question that this was the best loadout for the challenge, was Heavy with Minigun, Charge'n'Targe, and Claymore. The Charge'n'Targe with turn scripting gave ridiculous mobility, so that no class could escape fighting a point blank heavy. It also gave beefy resistances to fire and explosives. The minigun obviously deals massive damage. The Claymore was there to extend the charge duration, making it even harder escape from the Heavy.
    I recorded some footage from the challenge, which you can see here: ruclips.net/video/g_QlKgijyB8/видео.html

    Low key busted: Heavy with Quick-Fix.
    Suddenly you have a 300HP Medic running around, since Quick-Fix matches your speed to the patients if you're slower, at Scout speed. Or blast-jumping alongside Demos and Soilders.
    And since Quick-Fix is a *secondary* he can still pull out a Minigun. Just imagine a Heavy launching himself through the air with a Quick-Fix alongside a Soilder; swapping to the Tomislav mid-air and bombing you.

    Hear me out, Scout with:
    Ali Baba's Wee Booties
    Buffalo Steak Sandvich
    Preferably the Bushwacka as your melee
    Scout is fast, has a double jump, but he has low health
    The boots increase his speed even further, and gives more hp for melee
    Buffalo steak sandwich gives minicrits and keeps you in melee and makes you even faster
    The bushwacka turns those minicrits into actual crits, plus Scout uses his melee faster (I think)
    TLDR, Hella dangerous use for the steak sandwich

    The beauty of Tf2 is how carefully balanced it is. Notice how even slight balance tweaks, let alone massive overhauls can really bring out the scouts nasty side.

    It's kinda amazing that 6 out of the 9 classes had some sense of utility.

I dunno what use would have the other classes tho, except maybe a mix health / mobility for demo and soldier

    0:18 Quite a while ago there was a bug that people used to equip a minigun in the melee slot so they could use Buffalo Steak Sandwich to get a minicrit boost on miniguns. When spawning, you would simply have NO melee (not a second minigun either) - just a primary and secondary. This was fixed in the November 13, 2014 patch. I remember using it quite a bit on ctf_turbine. This was a different exploit than the 'stand inside dispenser' exploit.

    Rewatching this a year later, did nobody think of Natascha Pyro? Pyro's natural immunity to afterburn plus the slowing effect of the Natascha seems like it would be a big help against the Phlog Scout. You could either combine it with the Battalion's Backup and Powerjack for extra speed and health OR a Shield and the Eyelander if you're feeling ballsy for stacking speed and health.

    For one, the Huo Long might actually pose a threat to the Brass Beast's dominance if heavy could set things on fire himself. Or you could banner stack with heavies.
    Added bonus: Also apply this to the robots with custom waves. You could do some evil shit, like extended backup Heavies with sniper rifles.

    Years ago, there was a community server i used to frequent that would occasionally run a plugin allowing you to select any weapon on any class. My favorite was always minigun scout. similar to the charge n targe heavy you mentioned, but with double jump and no charge cooldown. I actually did mess with direct hit scout a bit, but i was never effective enough with the direct hit to make it as much fun.

  • @stinkylizard
    @stinkylizard Год назад +4

    I just recently got a plugin working that allows any class to pick up any weapon from the ground. While making it, I had questions as to whether it would be too unbalanced since I had seen this video before - what if a scout picked up a direct hit? Or a spy could cloak with stickies? But it turns out that, since you can die pretty easily and often in tf2, you would always die before you got too big for your britches and lose the weapon. Even if you did go on a good killstreak, it wouldn't be too hard for lots of people to rush you and kill you, since they only needed to kill you once before you lose your advantage.
    Not to mention you need to find a good weapon in the first place. You can equip a weapon on one class, killbind, and switch classes, but with respawn times it becomes not worth it and simply unfun to be waiting upwards of 30 or 40 seconds each death.
    I know this doesn't have much to do with the video, but I figured it's tangential enough to write down. The difference between choosing what you want and finding what you want is a lot bigger than I first thought, and it really cast a light on how huge death is as a balancing tool.
