No, it's not ruined forever. It is kinda annoying how hard those hats are to get. The bonuses should apply to just the weapons together, or better yet, not at all. It's adding an unnessecary layer that's hard to read.
If you see a sniper with the rifle, shield and hat, you'd assume he can't be headshotted. He might not have his melee though, and you're not going to see it to make that decision. Similar problems exist with the other sets, they're too hard to read.
If they were going with bonuses, I'd have 'em like this:
Equip the Powerjack, get the speed boost and damage taken increased.
Equipping the Degreaser over the flamethrower has no real disadvantage. Not that that's a bad thing, it's exactly the kind of skill based buff the Pyro needs. The whole disadvantage of the set bonus is giving up your insta kill axe. Giving the bonus just to the power jack would remove the complications there.
Remove the scout's bonus completely.
It's unnessecary. Everything is balanced as is with the new kit.
They need a more interesting bonus, and one that has a downside at that.
Have the soldier's sentry resistance tied to the Black box.
It's the lack of rockets that hurts when dealing with sentries, not your shotgun. It's easy to see when he has his secondary equipped though, so I don't mind this one.
Have the spy's bonus tied to the set without the hat.
readability doesn't apply to the spy; misdirection is more or less how you use him effectively, so having it being a full set is okay in this case, sans hat of course.
Remove the sniper's bonus, and his weapons.
They're absoluely terrible. Except the knife. That one's okay.
The can't headshot/can't be headshotted thing is incredibly stupid. The absolute worst idea I've seen for the sniper in fact. I expected a lot better than that. Hell, anything would have been better than that.
The shield is like the razorback, only worse.

No. It's not true. "Rapes different series?" How, exactly? Metroid is their product, Zelda is their product, and if I may link [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.127546-Nintendos-Unsung-IPs-A-Treatise-On-the-Idiocy-of-A-Particular-Critique#2712243] you to an article I wrote, you'll see that Nintendo DOES make their own 'damn IPs.'Ultratwinkie said:
Metroid is awesome, Zelda is awesome, and I find your lack of faith disturbing. And lack of argument; you simply make a statement and don't back it up? Come now, let's talk this out.
Metacritic [http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii/metroid-prime-trilogy] politely [http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii/the-legend-of-zelda-twilight-princess] disagrees [http://www.metacritic.com/game/ds/the-legend-of-zelda-spirit-tracks].Ultratwinkie said:
Once again you give no evidence to support your claim. Your 'opinion' doesn't count as evidence, so don't try that; give me hard, reasonable evidence to support your claim that Nintendo doesn't make good games besides Mario and Donkey Kong.
I give you evidence, I expect evidence in return. How is Mario 'cash cow milking?' They continue to be one of the best platforming series in gaming. Shovelware, well, the only 'shovelware' actually developed by Nintendo are the Wii Sports/Wii Play series of games.
And 90% of Nintendo-programmed games make their way stateside, what kind of crack are you smoking?
First off, kindly don't insult me. I'm not insulting you, so let's keep it civil, yeah?Ultratwinkie said:
You can't say "it's my opinion" and then just end it at that. Support your argument. All you've done so far is make blanket statements, without any evidence, and insult me. And if your argument is seriously based on 'your opinion,' then explain it. I have my opinion, and I have evidence for WHY it is my opinion. So show me precisely what leads you to believe what you believe.
If you seriously think that Nintendo developed all 649 of those titles, then I have nothing more to say to you. We're talking about Nintendo-DEVELOPED titles, not Nintendo PUBLISHED titles.Ultratwinkie said:
Sonic has absolutely nothing to do with Nintendo by the way.
I hadn't noticed any ruining. Just seems to me like if you really want that hat soooo much you can go and buy it, if not just see if it drops. Keeps both players and Valve happy.
I like the sleeper at long range (the distance on the last defence on Gold rush or longer), but otherwise prefer the huntsman.
