Already have one...

I've yet to actually try anything, but I have to say I'm really excited for this update. Each weapon looks fun, innovative, and only slightly broken.

I know i made that too, that was to talk about what updates might come, this is the real deal.

The only real thing that let me down was the maps. I was underwhelmed.

yeah the ability to grab and move a building is a little crazy.

you can now get a lv3 sentry up in about 7 seconds if you've grabbed it from another spot (like spawn). It makes the engineer ridiculously effective on offense. Also you can repair it while its being built which makes it even harder to counter.

no problem with the items so far. I Love the robot hand thingy. It suits my kill crazed attack frenzy when playing large open maps and combined with the new shotgun you do some nasty damage.

Anyone been able to get the combo attack to work with the gunslinger? I've tried, but I haven't had any luck. I'm really enjoying the revenge shotgun. I enjoy the gunslinger too, but it's primarily for the aesthetics. I can't think of any other reason I prefer it over the wrench. The lvl 1 sentries would be great if you could have more than one, but as it is, not so much.

When you hit people twice with the gunslinger, your screen goes redish (kinda like when you have jarate thrown on you, but it's red instead of yellow) and you have a blood drop on the lower right hand corner of the screen. No luck hitting people when i was like that though, they ran away after.

I've noticed a red screen and a blood drop, but that's when I get hit by the tribal shiv.

I just got all the weapons, gave away my useless razorback for scrap in order to craft the Southern Hospitality and found the Wrangler as a random drop.

Well... back to crafting for hats.

[Melissia 7]

I've gotten it to hit. though in my case it was two hits on a demoman and then the third on a soldier.

lucky. I keep getting FaNs, seriously like 5 in the past 2 days. I'm getting sick of that screen.

[Oww My Nose 19]

I've noticed a red screen and a blood drop, but that's when I get hit by the tribal shiv.

O.. i saw that after landing 2 hits and thought i proc'd 100% crit chance for the next few seconds (too much time playing wow apparently...). Thinking about it now, it's just silly, but... actually, I might have been playing wow at the same time. I can't remember...

I got the wrangler as a random too, then i got the 3rd milestone.
