Things wrong: 1. Spy can already “sprint” by cloaking. 2. Sappers disable buildings while active. Listen, I’m all for the mindset you have here. But making weapons useless shouldn’t happen.
You just nerfed VERY HARD the Eureka Effect. -HALF FIRE SPEED SENTRY??? Goddamm man. That is just, I dont have words for that "BUFFED", that hurts. And the 2-way teleporter is just another nerf, what happens if someone just stay forever in the teleporter? Going foward and backward. The cooldown is still there, no one can use the teleporter in that case.
I like how a lot of the “buffs” were just straight up nerfs. Like come on. The candy cane just got put into the ground. That’s a worse penalty than the sandman, and we all know what the -15 max health does to that thing. Same with the eureka effect. Sure, 2 way teleporters border on overpowered, but your sentry becomes useless. It’s just not worth it. And lastly, I know it’s a nerf, but come on. The Diamondback. Oh boy. You might have created the new worst weapon in the game. It’s nearly impossible to proc that thing’s effect. There are so many issues with it that I don’t even want to go over all of them in this comment. This guy clearly does not play the game.
If you seriously want to buff spy, buff more of his abilities and maybe some of his base stats, that's should the most important things to focus on. Make it so that he can fake a reload animation while disguised and *maybe* buff the damage of the revolve by 25% if not less than that. He should still be weak in head-to-head combat, but I do think he should still be able to better defend himself if he's caught out without being a viable damage-dealing class, that would be absurd on a class that can be anywhere. No offense, Grouch, but several of the "buffs" you proposed in this video and the previous one were literally just nerfs, like with the Caber and the Red-Tape Recorder. The same thing also applies to several of the "nerfs" you also proposed which were just buffs that made unbalanced items even more cancerous the fight against, like the Scorch Shot and the Vaccinator. I have no idea what was going on in your head when you reworked the Scorch Shot the way you did and called it a "nerf", that would possibly be the most AIDS-inducing thing in TF2 to fight against. You could've just gotten rid of the stun mechanic, nerfed the damage, and reduced the afterburn duration so that it's a less rewarding but easier-to-use sidegrade to the flare gun, perfectly balanced. In this video, the "buffs" you proposed the Red-Tape Recorder, like a lot of your "buffs" in the previous video, was just a straight up nerf. Why? Making engineers have to swing two more time in order to remove the sapper is not as useful as you think and having the sapper do no damage is a massive downside that doesn't nearly justify the pro. Plus, de-leveling a building can actually be useful in a more instances than a lot of people think. Again, just a simple buff to the deconstruction rate or damage would've made it a viable sidegrade to the default sapper. You also really didn't have to rework the Conniver's Kunai the way you did and just giga-nerfed it into being nigh-unusable. The whole point of the weapon is that it's NOT a throwing knife despite looking like what, but you just went and made it into one anyway. The whole reason the weapon had such as harsh penalty on the spy's max health was to compensate for the overheal it gives to the player, the upsides you've given it don't nearly justify it's downsides. All you had to do was nerf the amount overheal a spy receives on backstab so that they can't gain soldier-level health by backstabbing one clueless sniper
YOU DIDNT BUFF THE LIBERTY LAUNCHER OR THE RESERVE SHOOTER THEY BOTH NEED A DESPERATE BUFF BUT YOU BUFFED THE BISON AND IT STILL SUCKS. This video sucks but not in the funny way in the way that it sucks
tbh nice changes, love bringing back old amby, eternal reward changes, I like the idea of increasing health of red tape recorder but I would keep the undoing the building, also I would change sprinting while being disguised from holding space to "r" key, like vaccinator has option to change resistance on "r"
Here’s what I think; If you kept your changes a lot simpler and only reworked the weapons that needed it I think everyone would be happy. And I think you should’ve focused on keeping the general identities of weapons intact. Also I don’t think you should change weapons like the iron bomber or the tomislav. We need the smaller, less bombastic weapons in order to make the more gimmicky weapons more special. And they’re weapons of preference that are kind of necessary
Honestly what a fucking chad. He gets shit on for his previous video and what does he do? Does he get defensive or complain or try to play the victim? No, he owns up, listens to the criticism, and has another go at it.
This is the worst TF2 balance video I've ever seen. This not only reads as if it was made by someone who hasn't played TF2 longer than 1 week in 2014, but also hasn't played any other first person shooter ever. So many nerfs are out ot touch, and the buffs that are nerfs in disguise. Some changes you've made only make sense CONCEPTUALLY if you haven't played since Meat-Your-Match, which if you don't know, the game has had TWO balance changes since then (Jungle Inferno, and Blue Moon). For instance, your Jag complaints only make sense if the Jag didn't have its Jungle Inferno nerfs. The jag isn't even the best wrench, and do you know what is? Eureka effect, the one you nerfed into the ground and gave an insane two-way teleporter gimmick, BECAUSE YEAH I SURE DO WISH THAT RUNNING THE EUREKA EFFECT GAVE MY TEAM ACCESS TO INFINITE JARATE, MAD MILK, AND BANNER SWAP GLITCH. And that's only the tip of the iceberg in terms of out of touch, and awful changes you've made. EDIT: It is also amazing how much of a nuke this was to the community. This one guy who NO ONE AGREES WITH is now the example people have been using of "THIS IS WHY TF2 PLAYERS ARE FUCKING IDIOTS". Some random 20ksub goon said 36 minutes of nonsense and now we're all dragged into this
Why is everyone shiting and crying over this? It's not like theese changes are in the game. Only like half of theese sre horendous and a 4th is bad. Theese aren't the best oddsbut it's not worth sending death threats worth
not removing the shield on the wrangler means the damage vulnerability doesn't even matter in certain sentry spots- you can place your sentry in the middle of a doorway, and nobody can hit you because you are hiding BEHIND YOUR SENTRY GUN. this does not solve any problems. you should say "reworked" if you are giving both a positive and negative change to something.
sooo the huo long heater (which never actually hits a single person because the rings of fire don't even touch spies because they can just jump over it) is getting buffed by... making it do even less damage unless there's a pyro on your team. making it even more situational this is the exact reason why the sun on a stick is never used unless you're fucking around
The reveal of the new Scorch Shot has a comedic timing few people can achieve. "The problem with this weapon is that you can just spam it into a general direction. So here is what I did:" **Proceeds to spam 8 shots per second**
By far the most bafflingly change in this video, which is really saying something, is making the Razorback jarate…after they backstab you. When you’re dead. Yes, this will help play sniper better.
"The SVF is worse than just using the flamethrower at melee range, so I reworked it into still being worse than the flamethrower at melee range! BUFFED" The government should put you in some sort of research facility in order to study a being of such indomitable ignorance
I'll be honest grouch I haven't really seen you before I mainly saw your fixing the bad weapons To be honest I liked it I mean I do agree There are some changes that are questionable but I like the video And i'm tired of pretending that I don't also Would it possible to do rebalances for MvM?
This is the WORST video ive ever seen. 1. You basicaly made the Vaccinator a spammable weapon that gives your pocket invuneberality every 4-6 seconds making it more op than the Medi-Gun 2. All of heavys primarys are already good/balanced and you still made the Secondaries 1 nerfed and 2 buffed. 3. You made all kunai spies more OP. The trickstabs are legit coming and gives you PTSD than ever. 4. You legit reworked the Scorch Shot to be WORSER. Just give it 1 nerf change and its done. 5. Whats up with the bleed? It basicaly dosent do anything since bleed lasts 4-6 seconds and your last resort is killing him with your primary and you seriously think you going to kill the guy you inflected bleed to? At this point, Typical Colors 2 weapon rebalances are better than your type balancing shit. NEVER LET THIS SOLDIER MAIN COOK IN THE KICTHEN EVER AGAIB🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥 (P.S im a medic main and i RARELY uber soldiers for kritz and uber. Demoman and Heavy is more versatile for this. (800 hrs medic main)
"Good communication is supposed to be Spy's counter" Good communication is the counter to everything in this game. The fact you think that communication should only be used to counter one class in the game, is exactly why this video and the ideas inside, don't work.
