    Meet the Pyro was kinda disappointing. Not that it wasn't good, but it was "only" good on the level of Meet the Sniper and doesn't reach Meet the Spy or Meet the Medic.
    Plus some things people expected to be resolved in this trailer, weren't even hinted at all. Like who's exactly hiding under mask. But eh, I guess letting the cat out of the bag could've led to even more disappointment.

    About the patch:
    Heh, you could think Valve lately read my complain about most weapons being a useless piece of poo. ^^
    Some of the item changes are nice on the other hand they nerfed the Tomislav so stupidly hard. Why? The weapon was balanced in my opinion. And now there's barely anything that makes it worthwhile. :/

    Just because people demand to know her gender, doesn't mean valve have to expose its gender. If you look at the past you see that Valve constantely plays with the mystery of his gender, it would break mystery aura of him if they would just expose it, it would be a bigger disappointment for the audience, like you said. The video exactly shows how insane she actually is. you have no idea what goes through his mind seeing how he likes cute hats and flower bags in the game yet being so serious, and suddenly you can see that it just thinks it's in her happy world all along. The Meet the team isn't really about getting to know more about the history of the guys, you get to see more about the personalities of them. either way, I think it's a great video.

    Rainblower taunt can kill through walls too. Must admit I've enjoyed abusing this :p

    Thank you SO MUCH Valve, I was so scared of the red blood splatter on the walls /sarcasm
    How about you remove low violence instead of fixing it, I'm speaking for all german tf2 players here.

    i think it's beyond valve to remove it (same with some weapons in L4D2) so i don't want to sound like an ass here but i think you should be glad they made the low violence thingy (dunno what germany has against games but hey it's the higher ups running the show)

    Blame your government for that. it's because of them, that developers have to censor their games (DE versions) to ponyland if they want it released in germany. It's beyond valve, like bucket said. It's either getting censored version or none at all. *excluding importing*
    so eh...unite all the german gamers and protest? :D

    Haha fuck yea!
    Meh... It's just that I cant bear to see those cheeseburgers, ducks and tricycles flying around anymore. I should have bought an uncensored version from UK when tf2 wasnt f2p. :D

    Germans are so scared of fps games with gore and blood, they are afraid of children running amok in schools etc. (you've heard of these cases). The politicians are too narrow minded to actually see that these children are being mobbed by their fellow class mates like crazy, that this is the REAL cause why a person would do such horrible things. Getting crushed and pushed around by school society (including teachers). And seriously, it's not like they get guns out of computer games. Why the fuck are guns available to youngsters?? How about you start there, Germany.
    And it's because of the education kids get nowadays, most parents give a shit about their children. They dont take care of their problems, and the kids dont know how to handle them, because nobody taught them how to. In addition to puberty it leads inevitably to these killing sprees and suicides etc., they cant think of any other way to end their pain. It's pretty much like poking a dog til he finally flips out and bites you.

    All in all I blame education, politicians (or government), the police not having control of the weapon market (even an old friend of mine, I think we were 15-16, showed me his imported kalashnikov dafuq) and teachers not trying to help these persons. And dogs. Don't like dogs :/.

    So basically if a child killed people with a gun, germans start to think like this:
    child = likes to play games
    guns were used = guns are available in shooter games
    people were killed = you have to kill people in shooters
    At this point everybody will say that he probably was playing CSS and he started to like the feeling to kill "people" ingame.
    Aggression problems etc.
    Now what to do? Ban all gory games and censor bloddy shooters (tf2 is even comic-like, srsly?).
    Problem solved.
    .
    .
    .
    Oh look, somebody was running amok again! HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

    Edit: The guys back then in WW2 also used to play lots of shooter games you know. Thats why we had so many wars going on.

    Aren't Valve particularly singled out too, due to one of the first of these school shootings being blamed on CounterStrike?

    On topic, today's patch removed Rainblower taunt kills through walls.Gonna have to work harder to add to my 55 kills with it :p
