I really don't get how a mounted pistol that really has no impact on whether or not the objective is completed is more annoying than a soldierheavy who's constantly getting health and ammo refills and brings the game to a complete halt until it's dead or time runs out. "Fun" my ass.

@Wanta loves Mayu: Hi there, I'm the guy who wrote the article. The names in the caption were listed clockwise, meaning in this order:
1 2 3
6 5 4
I'm pretty sure I got them right, but I can see how that would be confusing. Next time I'll do it differently, sorry about that!
[url=#user_comment_357838]@WOLEad[/url]: Yep. Good game, a bit rough here and there but the overall experience is positive.
I'm not super fan of the story thou. Supergiant is pushing the nihilist approach a bit too much.

I enjoyed that interview more than I thought I would.
"Angie was basically my mouthpiece and while she was fun, she had little depth." FUKKEN CALLED IT.
I also liked "A robot or a monkey were the other options."
I have not lol'd so hard at a NerfNow comic in ages. This was perfect, thank you.

Has Jo ever played/finished Transistor? I remember the comic a while back ... and the crayon drawing, but surprisingly nothing else about Red showed up in relation to Engie there.
If you'looking for suggestions:
-Bastion
-Hard Reset
-Lichdom Battlemage
All three have some interesting things that could be worth comic material. They're also good games on its own.
PS: NerfNow taunt for TF NAOW!

The main problem with mini-sentries is that they're a very cheap way to deny an area to several classes. While they have less health than regular sentries, their hitbox is also significantly smaller and makes it difficult to hit them without being hit back. Hell, pyros and scouts can both take out
level three sentries in the right context, but minisentries are straight up more versatile and can be left out in the open where classes without high burst damage vs buildings have to either find a new route or sacrifice a large amount of health.
[url=#user_comment_357824]@GarketMardener[/url]: Last I checked you are wrong on all accounts.
100 HP, 3 second setup and less dps than level one sentry. And runs out of ammo faster since it relies on ROF.
Looking for a harder game? Play Dark Souls or Dark Souls 2. Both are good. Both are also insanely hard for people who don't learn the controls and have no patience whatsoever. They're still challenging for those who learn the controls and do have patience, though.
[url=#user_comment_357816]@Aegis[/url]: If they do that, maybe the engy's not good, because well, he can build another one, and it's faster to build, gives less metal, has more health...
annoying/10
At least they're doin' it doin' it doin' it well on taco bell :^)
Minisentry: 135 hp, 2 sec build time, same DPS, more hits, cost 100.
Don't say that's balanced.
Also if you're looking for a new game, i recommend Super Meat Boy for some difficulty.
Hey, you taold u was looking for a new game. When i see game what you like, u should test Dungeon of the endless. Anot expansive indie game, as a TD/MiniRPG/RogueLike. Veru good stuff.
I don't get it. If it's a "fun server" shouldn't the big ones be the ones that are banned? Since the small ones are, well, fun-sized, in candy bar terms.
It looks like they're in 2Fort, so it makes sense for them to use full-sized sentries anyway since they're defending. Mini-sentries are best-suited for KOTH or Control Points and other maps where the Engie is attacking instead.
Regarding finding a new game to play, have you seen Depth? Besides that it almost never gets stale, I think you'd find an overabundance of material for the comic in there.
Oh, so is this character supposed to be a female? back when it appeared, in the 300th comic, most of us though it was a snape clone or something, i believe!
Also, since you finished Deus Ex, now it's time for Baldur's Gate... you know this in your heart! I can feel it!
wow, the memories... a good, solid team fortress cartoon in the old school super kawai style. at first I thought I was at the wrong web page, ya know...
