      @red suffer thing about spy is that he ain't in no hurry, and he is a spy, there supposed to be sneaky, not fast and athletic. Kinda same with sniper. Snipers are also to a extent supposed to be sneaky, plus sniper doesn't need to run, because he most of the time will not be in the battle zone. I personally think scout is simply faster than the others because he is athletic , also the reason he can double jump. Also scouts runs compared to sniper's and spy's semi-fast jog

    PBPP is like a better version of the clearers carbine, in the sense that they both serve as a midpoint between stock and the throwable liquid. It even compares in the same way as both options give you the effect of the liquid item, but it's passive, rather then being usable by anyone on the team. The main difference is that the carbine loses waaaay more damage then the pocket pistal does. And the effect of Jarate is so strong that it's hard to justify putting it behind any kind of barrer, even when it means you have something that shoots bullets.

      @@lilsunny7399 Similarly, the carbine doesn't lend itself to Sniper's long-range focus, while the pocket pistol suits scout's in-your-face style perfectly.
      Sniper's jarate lets him contribute to his team in mid-range conflict a ton by throwing the jar and then fucking off to snipe. Scout can do more work by himself with the pistol up close, at the minor cost of a non-support class losing a bit of team support.

    I think it is a misnomer to call the pocket pistol overpowered.
    I 100% agree that it is the best pistol - but not by that much.
    It's only marginally better than stock (and worse in some scenarios) and the stock pistol is the baseline for secondary balance. Yes a scout using it will be slightly more effective than one using stock, but not enough to make scout unbalanced or unfair.

In that regard the stock can be more consistent and can handle uberhealed enemys better, due to it doing more damage PER RELOAD. You just hit the kill threshhold more often. That said, u always have to consider maps and if u are using a 6 shot, or 2 shot primary. When there are more corners to reload until the enemy pops up at your screen, or many health packs get taken the pbpp is way better. If the game has more medics, the gun gets worse however.

      @@Skullhawk13 I also did say MINI-Blutsauger, meaning it isn’t going to be quite as good in terms of general use. That said, it’s still more than a viable pick for Scout’s secondary weapon if not for that Oppurtunity cost you mentioned. As Medic: if you’re using the Blutsauger, you’re not healing ANYONE else on your team and basically being as useful as an SMG sniper. Yeah, it’s good for a hairy situation when your team is all dead, but that’s it.
      But with the Pocket Pistol, it’s a secondary weapon that can be used in every single situation to great affect that still contributes to the team ON TOP of healing you, it just doesn’t have the oppurtunity to heal you as much as the Blutsauger in a single clip.

    I’ve always wanted the engineer to get a revolver, maybe an equivalent of the winger with less combat potential but a speed boost on hit, or something with slower firing speed but better damage at range, to deal with people outside your sentry’s range when you can’t do chip damage with your primary. Engineer really just needs more secondaries in general.

      Pistols tend to be so dope. The Black Mesa Glock shown at the start, the many options in PAYDAY, the rifle-grade handguns in Borderlands 2, the wimpy but trusty universal sidearm in XCOM 2012, I love them all.
      Though I gotta say, ever since I tried the 9mm Autoloader in Ashes Afterglow, I've found my favourite handgun ever. Don't even need to upgrade it to the 3-round burst (which is another monster entirely) or at all for that matter, even if it's in the rusty ill-kept stock form it works great for spamming against thugs or finishing off a mutant once your shotgun is dry and melee is a bad idea.

    I am the storm that is approaching
    Provoking black clouds in isolation
    I am reclaimer of my name
    Born in flames, I have been blessed
    My family crest is a demon of death
    Forsakened, I am awakened
    A phoenix's ash in dark divine
    Descending misery
    Destiny chasing time
    Inherit the nightmare, surrounded by fate
    Can't run away
    Keep walking the line between the light
    Led astray
    Through vacant halls I won't surrendеr
    The truth revеaled in eyes of ember
    We fight through fire and ice forever
    Two souls once lost, and now they remember
    I am the storm that is approaching

    Descent in misery
    Destiny chasing time
    Disappear into the night
    Lost shadows left behind
    Obsession's pulling me
    Fading, I've got to take what's mine
    Lurking in the shadows under veil of night
    Constellations of blood pirouette
    Dancing through the graves of those who stand at my feet
    Dreams of the black throne I keep on repeat
    A derelict of darkness, summoned from the ashes
    The puppet master congregates all the masses
    Pulling strings, twisting minds as blades hit
    You want this power?
    Then come try and take it
    Beyond, the tree, fire, burns
    Secret love, bloodline, yearns
    Dark minds, embrace, crimson, joy
    Does your dim heart
    Heal or destroy?
    Bury the light deep within
    Cast aside, there's no comming home
    We're burning chaos in the wind
    Drifting in the ocean all alone

    I don‘t think a damage nerf will do well. The firing speed would be canceled out by it. If you really want to nerf it, reduce the ammo you carry (forcing to to make those shots count) or maybe something else that needs the Scout a bit (like less health from other sources)

    • @white2765
      @white2765 Рік тому +1

      A lower clip means Less Health per clip (HPC) And less damage. Since the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol Fires Faster, It means that the ammo in the clip Wold Fly out of the Gun so fast you wold find your selfe reloading contantaly. So, you Now have a Pistol Wich haves a smal clip and a fast firerate that makes It FEELS like the Quick bomb Launcher and has the damage potential of the Winger. Getting Less HPS (Health Per Second) From medics and Health packs or anything Else is a smart move. Just dont make It too Rash.
