I don't understand the hate towards the Gunslinger, Short Circuit and Pomson. The Pomson fires visible projectiles that can be avoided with a bit of dancing. The Short Circuit after the nerf is much more fair and at least requires the engie to swap off the SC to receive metal and the Gunslinger provides high mobility. Obviously the minisentry is horrible and is the bane of everyone's existence but for a class like Engineer, these weps provide something that lets the Engie be an active part of the team. In conclusion, no I don't play engie. :p
mini sentries shut down scout and pyro
short circuit stops soldiers and demos from destroying mini sentries
pomson has uber drain and that's just autism
 
Engineer is a fun class imo, but not one that I play too often compared to most other classes.
 
I'm am engineer main c;

I'd really love to play comp engie, but my internet is constantly bad.

(I've said this 1000 times, but it is worth repeating!)
 
I only play engineer if I can roam freely and piss off people with a mini sentry effectively. I will never turtle as an engineer. Ever.
 
I remember a time when it didn't collide with players. If you had a line of dweebs running at you, and you shot a crit pomson. Dead ... Dead ... Dead ... Dead.

Crit Pomsons were the equivalent of a boulder rolling towards you.

You know it's going to hit, and there is nothing you can do it about it.

Ping isn't something that matters for some classes and not for others. That's true for a competitive atmosphere and a Pub alike. Disagreeing with that is just silly.
 
In comp it does. Hard to keep your stuff up when you are swinging at air with 200 ping.

I think you might find this amusing:


Though to be fair, that actually had nothing to do with ping and everything to do with the server being absolute shit.

>Implying I wasn't being silly
 
I like gunslinger!Engie a lot.

But, then again, I also like being the biggest asshole on any server too soooo
 
So apparently I'm wrong for using Minisentry, Hows about ya'll learn how to aim and take it out in one rocket or two stickys, overextending is your fault not the engies.
 
I love playing widow maker engineer on pubs. Pub heavies cannot aim for shit, you can literally jump around them until you kill them.
