I think your reasons for adjusting damages are flawed. Lower weapon damage won’t reduce spam, the direct hit isn’t a spamming weapon either. The reason the heavy isn’t used is mainly because it’s far too slow. It can’t fight on 5 point CP maps because it can’t deal with back caps, it can’t get out of a lost battle and it can’t get to middle quickly enough.

It’s weird how every main class seems to have a weapon that the other classes think is overpowered, I’d consider that a balanced situation.

play vanilla. dont be a fag

Don’t see the point in prolonging firefights.
Will just slow the game down even more.

Not by much. It will stop the game from flowing super fast because you just did 125+ damage on 2 scouts with your tdh.

I have to agree with admirable: a lot of people are crying that TF2 is slow, and making weapons do less damage will only make this worse. I’m not saying that all weapons should instagib (although that was quite fun gamemode), but you get my point.

Also, sniper bodyshots should do 150dmg. If you cant call/kill a sniper standing for 5 seconds in one place with his vision narrowed to only few degrees, your medic deserves to die. Anyways, sniper is barely used nowadays, and nerfing him would mean he’s useless.

P.S.: snowie, a heavy isn’t “it”… He’s “him” :D

TF2 is slow because of the demoman class, especially players like Byte who focus their game around sticky traps rather than aim. Uber also makes this game slow, notice how much quicker it goes once one team opts for kritz. In regards the heavy, if the demoman was balanced the heavy would be a mainstay, people think it’s focus fire from the soldiers which ruin the heavy, it’s not – it’s the demoman.

I can only read: My team uses a FaN and we need a way to make it work again. Also putting (finally) behind balance TDH is kinda sad.

You know i like you viqun, but you may as well slap a dunce hat on yourself saying stuff like that. Try to discount someone’s opinion based on some solid reasoning than mud-slinging. Something a few others round here could learn.

Edit: I don’t like this idea.

It’s more that I like bait Vlad :D

I won’t judge how these changes affect the game flow or spam duration. It’s simply too early to determine this without testing.

Give it a try.

I already gave that fucked TDH enough chances. Its bugged and i hate it.
