ozfortress - team fortress 2 in australia

Wrangler isn't broken, just have people bomb the engineer and win with respawn advantage.

So far the Wrangler has proven to be a serious PITA on payload maps with long fire lanes (particularly Upward/Barnblitz where you can get LOS into spawn) and to an extent on Gpit (where it can be setup behind the B house to cover both the far left approach and the one from C while being almost impossible to bomb due to the house providing cover. A wrangled gun on top of B has proven somewhat interesting as well, though difficult to pull off if the attackers bypass A and go straight for the B cap).

I've actually changed my mind on the wrangler. I'm happy to keep it. Like people have said here its only as good as the engineer, and it also makes the engie more vulnerable to spys and side / back attacks.

From todays update:

"Fixed a problem that would sometimes allow the detonator projectiles to crit on burning targets"

Should be fine to unban it now?

Wait and see if its been properly fixed. The detonator had the critswitch bug, but it sometimes had odd behaviours even without that - it might well be that only one of the two issues is resolved.

Care to point out the other issues?

It'd sometimes do a critswitch without actually weapon switching, and its hit detection was dodgy on the alt-fire detonation. Hopefully those are fixed, because its an interesting weapon to have available in highlander.

I'd assume that is fixed or you are playing on a random crit server.

tf2 has bad hit registration for every class, that isn't even a glitch.

There's bad registration and then there's "two people stand still equidistant from the blast, only one gets hit" bad.

There is bad registration and there is "I got a direct meatshot and dealt no damage bad"

No, literally everything has the same bad registration, it's not a gltich.

I can vouch for that, it happens more than I'd like.

I would like to see the holiday punch allowed. I was looking forward to bashing the shit out of EDF then laughing along as my team slaughtered their hopelessly hysterical members in an orgy of blood and mirth.

The items I would like to see banned are: the Wrangler, the Enforcer, Phlogistinator (not that I expect anyone to use it), Pomson 6000 (not as I expect someone to use it), Tomislav, Sandvich, the Machina and Polycount sets

UGC set rules

Is it likely that the detonator will be allowed now the bugs has been fixed?
