    Woah, I totally missed that. Maybe there's hope yet.

    And maybe I'm the King of France.

     

    Valve will only respond to a controversy that directly affects profits. Even then, it usually takes upwards of three days and a completely nonstop torrent of complaints. Neither condition applies to this case.

     

    So, no, you aren't the King of France.

    Yeah, I haven't quite figured out why people expect a response. Maybe, maybe Old Valve might have, but even then Valve's never been known to possess great communication skills. New Valve definitely won't, just like EA hasn't responded at all after being named "Worst Company Ever" a few times (above the likes of BP and several banks, no less). It's all user-generated rage, which means diddly. Money talks waaaay louder than complaints, and as much as we'd all like to delude ourselves that we have an input... we don't.

     

    Actually, Valve is apparently worse than EA in this case.

    Their proposed change is a really weird one, since usually if you're using Bonk you're either dead in the next two seconds or you're completely home-free. A slowdown isn't really going to change the weapon, or make it require any more skill than it already does. Hell, I think its current cooldown and deprivation of a pistol is already enough of a trade-off for what it does.

    They should just nerf it so it's harder to pop it to avoid 1v1s. So, just a longer initial animation maybe.

    I like most of these changes, except B.A.S.E. Jumper, Guillotine, and Ambassador. Those changes just seemed unnecessary.

     

    I understand that the Guillotine is still good, and the stun combo never was particularly amazing, but the fun factor is more important to me.

     

    Out of the list, my favorite changes have to be the Darwin's Danger Shield finally getting nerfed, and the Manthread buff. I'm looking forward to seeing what 200% extra air control is like.

     

    Not entirely sure how I feel about Bonk. I've gotten to a point where I prefer the pistol wherever possible and only begrudgingly equip it to get past excessive defenses. I guess I'll just have to see how that plays out.

    Holy shit, it looks like Nintendo decided to release the floodgates on games people have been wanting. I personally don't care about most of those (though a new Kirby sounds great, I love those things for road trips and stuff) but I know a bunch of people who'd individually be excited for either Xenoblade, Fire Emblem, Metroid, or some combo of all 3.

     

    I'm actually kind of excited for Metroid Re-2, though I've never played any Metroid but the first one (I didn't even beat it). Maybe I'll get it and catch up on the Prime series (they did a re-release a while back didn't they?).

    Yes, you have your choice of the Wii or Wii U for the trilogy. I believe you can download the trilogy for $20 on the Wii U.

    Loose I want to congratulate you on your spectacular taste in loadouts, especially so because I barely ever see the Direct Hit anymore. I've been attached to my Direct Miss ever since I first picked up the game and I've never found any of the backpacks useful enough to warrant switching away from my shotgun.

    I renamed my strange shotgun "underestimated," and while I doubt anyone will see it, it rings true nonetheless. It easily ranks as a top 10 item to me. It essentially gives three classes firepower almost comparable to the Scout.

     

    Not the Heavy, though.

    'e-sport types' don't play pubs in the first place because it's a low skill shitfest

    Those aren't cheaters, they're just slightly less incompetent than your average pubber.

    The other day I did run into a hacker who was blatantly hacking, but he didn't understand that the Sniper could scope to get headshots. Also, he changed his username to match the name of someone on the other team.

     

    Some people are cheaters and incompetent pubbers.

    The inability to even join friends while they're playing a server really pisses me off.

     

    That's also a benefit for people who want to stream TF2 though, as it's harder for their server to be joined.

     

    I've also found the party system to be a bit buggy. I was trying to use it yesterday, and found it weirdly difficult to try to join a friend's party or invite them to mine.

     

    Plus, you then have to deal with the queue, only with more people. Yay.
