Unluckily for them, we're also going to attach gameplay attributes (probably of a game destroying nature) to these items, sullying their perfect work with our clumsy attempts at game design

I bet you a dollar the pyro items are going to be ridiculously underpowered. Valve's solution for making the pyro less "nooby" is to make the pyro completely suck as a class.

Why did they pick those scout items >_> there retarded looking. Hell they don't even fit the personality of the scout.

I am saddened by this.

+ Why didn't they pick any new medic items. There were plenty of awesome medic items.

:smith:

edit-

Yeah looking at all the awesome items that where there I am guessing that Gaben was drunk when he picked those.

I like how that chamfered box won a soldier slot. Interested in the new sniper rifle though.

They better do something cool with the flamethrower after the backburner's horrible dissapointment.

Scout already has 2 useless drinks, they better not fuck up the milk

Additionally, the Suburban Scout pack looked way more appealing, I would loved to have used the tirebyte scattergun :[

Even with the pistol it can be really effective.
