Loose Cannon on Medieval Mode?

I think it is better to wait until the weapon has been tested and seen ingame. All by all the melee (and huntsman) fight stays the key factor in medieval. It's better to wait and see whether it is OP or not, because it can ruin the gameplay of medieval when a few pro's fire from up the walls.

I got the Loose Cannon and it isn't OP, because of low damage and no explode on impact.

I have no idea, haven't encountered it yet. Perhaps a trial period to see whether or not it is a succes. By the way, Valve Maps | EU is always empty...
 
Hell no it's an explosive. That would allow Demomen to spam and bomb over the wall, supporting their teammates in times of need without letup. Use Demoknight if you really want to play as that class.
 
Pretty funny how I get all the ratings while others disagree as well. Looks like some folks are touched in the butt.

It has the range of the Grenade Launcher and a shorter fuse than the grenade, so you can't really spam because it'll blow before it touches the ground.

Then maybe we should take out the Caber, since it is an explosive as well.

I don't know about this, it just causes too much knockback when it explodes, but it does sound like a pretty nifty weapon to have, given some of the drawbacks. +0 for now.

Valve has to implement it, right?

I think Bottiger or someone could probably do some sort of mod that allows it but even then I doubt it would be done because it wouldn't be "stock" or "canon" game play at that point. That being said from what I've seen Bottiger likes to keep his normal servers...normal, if that makes sense so I doubt it would be modded in.

It's really hard to aim at those opponents because of the normal projectile speed, and critical hits only appear randomly.

If its implemented, I really, really want to bomb those snipers.

Edit: Even huntsman arrows can crit 192 damage without headshot

Huntsman don't have critical hits to begin with.

And besides, demomen are already the most powerful class in Medieval, he doesn't need a kiting weapon or a knockback weapon. You'd basically have an unstoppable monster machine if the demo have a 4-head eyelander as well.
 
Who cares about the loose cannon? Seriously, all I want is friggen Jarate, because apparently in Medieval time people didn't piss.

I don't see that in the description of the Huntsman: No random critical hits
Edit: Did you forget that Huntsman arrows crit on headshot?
