poopty melee weapon

Hope that means no DJ if it's even in your inventory. Stun is op, especially because it stuns ubers.

Jono2 · February 17, 2009, 03:34:07 PM

hope it just means you can't DJ while holding it. otherwise it would be kinda pointless on any leveled map.

it would be underpowered otherwise, and limited to only flat maps. What scout is going to take this over a double jump on a map that has multiple levels to fight on?

No Crits upon stunning/while attacking stunned person would have been a better tradeoff.

You really can't use "No crits" to balance items, especially for a class with such a high skill ceiling. Of course all the good players will just use the new item since when they do play with crits they don't rely on them.

true, but taking away the scout's double jump just because he has the bat in his inventory means that nobody will use it, unless they're on a flat map.

Nice to see more great user created maps to go official.

No one using that bat sounds good to me. don't want already useless scouts being more useless by standing still and spamming stun balls.

energy drink

Runnin' rings around all them molasses-slow dummies out there on the battle- field is thirsty frickin' work. But when it comes to quenchin' that thirst, only one thermonuclear thirst detonator packs all the "Atomic Punch" you'll ever need. Bonk! is fulla radiation, which as we all know is pretty great for givin' people superpowers. Just one can'll blast ya into a few-second rush of radioactive energy so powerful you'll be dodgin' bullets like they ain't even there!
Note: Bonk! contains several hundred times the daily recommended allowance of sugar. After the beneficial effects of the radiation wear off, drinkers have reported experiencing feelings of lethargy that can last several seconds. Reading this sentence absolves Bonk! of any liability for killing sprees inspired by or deaths resulting from the ingestion of Bonk! Enjoy Bonk! responsibly... Or by the case!
