Brand new video game articles, every day!
Fun fact: Das Hazmattenhatten is a really annoying word to type, even worse than Otolaryngologist’s Mirror. But since it’s a nice hat and it’s got a stupidly long name, not to mention that it’s got some unique properties, I feel it’s worth an article. So here we go! The Das Hazmattenhatten was added in the July 10th patch in 2013, also known as the Move That Gear Up! update. This was the same update that gave the Quick Fix overheal, made the Vaccinator the best choice for cp_orange and nothing else and changed the Crossbow’s projectile to a giant syringe.… [Continue Reading]
One of the things that makes Team Fortress 2 unique, apart from the cartoon style, the unique classes, the cool weapons, the hats and a bunch of other stuff, is all the chatter. Most of this talking comes from the voice lines spewed from our favourite mercenaries while killing each other, so you don’t always hear them. In this article, I’m going to rectify this problem, starting with the Scout.
Everyone complains when there’s too many of one class, particularly if said class is a Sniper or a Spy, but what if every slot is taken and there’s an abundance of classes? What do you do then? My advice? Go Soldier. And here’s why.
Pyros are the bane of my existence. They’re the one thing that can screw up a perfectly good push, apart from another Ubercharge. They have a lot going for them yet are also considered the weakest class in the game, despite their ability to completely screw over multiple classes. So what about them? The issue with Pyro is simple. Pyros are bloody annoying. Ask someone to name some of the most annoying things to be killed by, and a Pyro-related death will almost certainly be on that list. Even when they’re not killing you, they’re still annoying. Time to break… [Continue Reading]
Instead of the normal stuff, let’s take five minutes to pause and think about how TF2 would be like without respawn machines.
Last night, I had a genius idea. I worked out how we could fix not one, but two weapons at once, and you wouldn’t even need to do much work. Yes, folks, I believe I may have the answer to our Quick Fix and Vaccinator worries! Maybe. Possibly. Okay, probably not, but oh well.
I can hear the Soldiers screaming at me already. They’re charging towards me in their fancy BLU uniforms… Oh wait, I just Kritzed a Demoman instead of Ubering a Heavy. All that’s left are gibs. Yes, after much consideration, I have realised that the Demoman is just as, if not more versatile than the Soldier. Let’s have a look at why.
Like a lot of my work, I don’t often feel that I’ll bother writing a part 2, since my best work is normally a one-off thing that can’t be repeated. But on Tuesday, the 4th of February, I purchased my first non-Medic unusual, and the fourth unusual I’ve ever bought. That prompted me to write a new article.
Δεν έχετε ιδέα τί έγραψα. Ούτε εγώ ξέρω ακριβώς τί έγραψα. Είμαι ο Γιατρός. Τα άλλα μέλη της ομάδας μου είναι ο Βαρύς, ο Κατεδαφιστής, ο Κατάσκοπος, ο Μηχανικός, ο Εμβρηστής*, ο Ανιχνευτής, ο Στρατώτης και ο Ελευθερος Σκοπευτής. Αχ, ψέματα λαλώ. Άλλαξαν το όνομα του. Τωρά είναι ο Ακροβολιστής. Όμως δεν έχουν αλλάξει το όνομά του σε μερικά, μικρά μέρη έξω από το παιχνίδι. Μην ανησυχείτε, θα σας δώσω μια μετάφραση μετά. Το παιχνίδι στα Ελληνικά δεν είναι πολύ διαφορετικό. Εκτός από το φόντο, φάινεται το ίδιο. Οι φωνές στο παιχνίδι είναι στα Άγγλικα, αλλά τα περισσότερα είναι μεταφρασμένα,… [Continue Reading]
Let’s be fair, there’s lots of things I don’t get. Rocket jumping, surfing, Freak Fortress, generic aiming and all that. But King of The Hill is just something I can never wrap my head around. They seem popular, they’re multi-purpose, they’re generally fairly good looking and they’re often a good choice for Halloween maps, but I just don’t see the appeal.
