Declined Baby Face's Blaster in VSH

[Sarge]

The Baby Face's Blaster was recently changed in an update. Now you gain speed as you shoot enemies. This makes it unfair for Hale, as the scout is running 2x faster than his regular base speed. Most Hales are unable to kill a Scout with the BFB due to his speed increase. I would like to see some changes to the BFB so that its fairer for Hale.

it was always like this. the tradeoff is that the scout is initially slower than a demoman

actually, max speed is 1.2935x faster than normal scout

Wait, this was disabled before. And it should be dissabled again. It doesn't fit in the gameplay of VSH at all. It's not made to do damage, and it's a waist of time to keep running from hale

I thought BFB has been banned in Skial's VSH servers for an eternity?

 

[Avenger]

Hale is basically forced to rage, because unless the scout is a complete fucktard, he can always run away

 

[KinCryos]

I wonder how hard it would be to make a plugin that creates a decay on the Boost meter.
basically, with that a scout would have to continually attack in order to be able to outrun Hale. that way, Hale could back off and wait a few seconds to slow a BFB scout down

Use rage and the problem is fixed

If this gets removed again, i'ma be all bored again as a scout... given, I've done like 2000+ damage with the babyface, just because if you get a melee hit, you receive full boost, and when I get full boost, I just melee him continually after that... But then there are those scouts, that just refuse to fight like men, and run like tiny baby men.

Yes, but I already used rage to get the Pyros and Scunts and Engie nests. But the time I try to get the BFB scout, then I get called a rage noob.

 

[Phaiz]

You people act like hale doesn't already rage on every scout

who cares the rage is there to fix problems like these if you wanna impress every one in the server and show them how good you are then great lose to baby face scouts skial doesn't need to to change the weps just to suit mlg pro hale players that care about being called rage noobs

 

[mike-kirby]

Why do you think that everyone wants to rage just to get one scunt

I careless about being called a Rage Noob. I care more when they try to vote slay me.

For raging? That's Vote Menu Abuse, you can report it.

 

[Avenger]

I care more about the fact that if there's four of them, four engies with sentry nests, I'm running low on rages

id point out that bfb scouts prolong a round, as running as fast a demo seldom seems to matter when playercount is above 10 or so.
rage is almost always needed to kill bfb scouts, which is a cause for much griefing as votes to slay are usually triggered by raging esp. single raging.
im personally in favor of rebanning bfb since it doesnt seem to promote high damage scouts and just annoys most everyone.
re mono sentry nest and bfb scouts there is almost 0 sentry nests that truely require rage in vsh, they just demand 2k etc health.

 

[Ergoman]

Use Rage or CAP (Gasp, that's an option?!?)

Their incompetence gets them killed anyway.
Besides, hale scouts don't really use the BFB all that often, from what I have seen as a regular on the US Server

 

[michael doe]

ill try to be mlg hale and not rage, plus unless ur overtiming i dont ever see a need to cap, given with rage every spot is reachable on all the maps. bfb scouts do seem to run into things a lot lel, i dont run into issues with it but i see so many nub hales running around forever not even jumping. re usage its not that it happens 4x every round just that when it does it detracts from the user experience and leads to false votes 10x. id ban just for convenience to get more rounds in.
