Guy's, is there any chance of getting a limit on gunslinger per team in servers such as hightower and harvest. These pub 'fun' servers are being totally ruined by this weapon spam, I play a lot on these 2 and sometimes there is way, way to many just slinging these sentry's. Their range, ease of hiding and etc make for death of open fun, gameplay.

Constantly, when this is happening in the server the message box's are flowing with complaints. There is not a way to votekick the spammers so no control, and once it starts the sheep follow and there end's up with just way to much computer controlled aiming on these open maps. Kill's game play.

It is not a problem to deal with if there is just a couple, but if there is many its almost impossible to have open fun fighting. This is a particular problem on hightower, or harvest which are so open. Would make for much more fun with a limit on this weapon per team.

Weapons are only limited if they involve exploits or crashes. Although I hope the Gunslinger dies in a fiery pit, we can't do anything about it.
Can we lock this before it gets worse?

Someone quick, discover an exploit about this weapon so it will get banned :troll:

Because scouts were meant to take out sentries.

Scouts should at least be able to take out a minisentry. A normal engy has to take time to build up a sentry, but a combat engy can basically just drop his minisentry whereever, and drop another one if that one get killed, which isn't the most easy task at times. Again, just make it so that it don't start at 100% health even after you've shot it right in it's face 500 times.
 
Well, I don't see what is dumb about limiting a class. Not engineer's - but gunslinger. JMHO.

Personally, I see it time after time. The spam starts, increases, then the server clears of all your regular's. You want donations, support. This comes from your regulars no? so if they are clearing to other servers, maybe you should at least consider why. Personally, I think you have a issue. I've watched this happen on hightower and harvest today, every day.

It is not about classes, all can take a mini out, scout up, but if there is multiples of them also covered by the opposing teams you got no chance. No class issue at all. You attack the engy', he will just run and drop another and keep on running in many cases. It is only the open maps it is a issue, there is no cover from them.

There are three people in the thread that want it out, only one guy actively pursuing the banning of it (which is you), we all know besides you that this is not how Skial works for several reasons, such as advocating gameplay as vanilla as possible, being enabled on quickplay etc. We can all hate the Gunslinger but it's not the Skial way to remove weapons just because a guy wants it to.

I have no problem with mini sentry's they arent that bad even if there are 10 of them. I think it's your skill level needs improvement. its not that hard to get a medic and heavy and whipe them all out in seconds or spam grenades from behind a corner or snipe them from a distance or even shoot rockets at them from a distance and also there is that sapping thing which spy's have and they never get hit by sentry's to begin with. only class that would have a problem is another engy or possibly a pyro or scout. but the pyro one shots them with the hammer.
 
I actually saw La dustbowl go to bots lastnight over minis. Some guy on blu was bitching about red mini sentries being worthless, next thing you know red has nine mini sentry engies and everyone else went pyro.
And for some weird reason, it worked. The engies would just hide during uber, and the pyros kept knocking the medics away while the minis wore down the blu team. Engies run back out and placed more. Was a blood bath.
 
Nope, I'm not perusing banning it at all. Never said that at all. If your going to quote, don't misquote. As for the other comment, as I said, it is not about class ability to take them out, any can sure.
 
On April Fool's Day, Valve should make all mini-sentries heal their targets instead of dealing damage. That would make for a fun day.
