 Yeah, demo-knights aren't a serious threat.  The last time I played I don't think I saw a single one. |

 I'm not saying if it's strong or weak. It's there and it's retarded and it's the kind of thing that drove everyone I know to uninstall TF2. |

 I don't know why - Demos that use the shield are inferior demos. And I say this as someone that normally plays a DemoKnight if I play demo at all - I'm a terrible demo, but DemoKnight can be fun. |

 Thanks.

 Dear Eldaec, Black Scottish Demomen wearing eye-patches get to do whatever they want. Thanks. |

 A fully stacked demoknight is a terrible sight to behold. I single handedly held back a pretty intense attack on 2fort a couple nights ago as a demoknight. I think it's true they are generally less effective but damn if they aren't fun to play. |

 A fully stacked demoknight 2FORT I don't really have a problem playing against demo knights, it's when you need to take down a sentry nest(s) and all you have to uber are a bunch of idiots who charge head first into a heavy's mini gun it becomes problematic.  |

 1) How did you find that?
 If you go to the page (http://www.teamfortress.com/uberupdate/ ) and just keep hitting "tab" it hilights all the links on the page.  There's one buried in the picture next to the Soldier, of the Pyro's face.  Or you could just check the page source for any weird looking divs. |

 Tried this again for the first time in months at lunch. It's still as fun as ever. The new payload map is pretty good as well. Protip: do NOT enable the "Play a hit sound every time you injure someone" when playing a pyro. |

 I've been able to do that with pretty much all classes, the ones that are the most fun doing it for me are sniper and spy.  My aim as a sniper can be a little spotty but when it's on anyone who pops their head out it becomes a death sentence. |

 http://store.steampowered.com/stats/The only test this game has to pass is this:  Have any other online shooters had as much stickiness?  No.  Not quake.  Not counterstrike.  Not TF classic.  Not even my beloved ET.  And if anyone even thinks about saying Halo, I will kill you with my thoughts.  Ergo, it's the best.  Now fire this shit up, or eat a bag of ass.
 While I totally agree that TF2 is the best shooter out there, to be fair counterstrike still regularly has more players: As of a couple seconds ago...
