The Huntsman broke snipers.
Thank you. The Huntsman takes away from the actual sniping aspect of the Sniper. Sniping is sitting there in one spot FAR AWAY with an ACCURATE gun Shooting people in the face.
The Huntsman however makes you a medieval bowman who actually runs up to shoot people instead of staying back. Plus the streak kinda gives away your position, which makes people kill you. That thing needs to be nerfed hard. It's too powerful and too easy to hit people. I mean come on, I play a Scout a lot, sometimes I get hit by the Huntsman (not the head mind you) Full health and I die. Some of you might say that the charge sniper bullet does that, and yes I know, but you have to CHARGE that you can't just run around a corner click mouse one and kill someone with the sniper rifle.
Also if you think my caps mean I'm yelling, I'm not, I just don't know how to do bold lettering.
[*b] at the beginning of the word/s you want to be in bold, [/b*] at the end of the word/s you want bold; minus the asterisk.
Anyway, the Huntsman isn't so bad, I believe. Yeah, It's over-powered, but it'll be nerfed. The whole point of the new weapons is to give the classes different playing styles, if they just went ahead and made them the same, but better, then all it would do is further the gap between the more easygoing players and the obsessive players.
My favourite upgrade so far must be the Cloak & Dagger. Something funny about sitting still as enemies run around you, suspecting a Spy, blasting everyone that moves just in case they are a Spy. Cloak & Dagger just made me sadistic, even if I am wholeheartedly crap as a Spy...
...Want to see what they'll do with Demoman and Engineer upgrades. I can't even imagine.
