🤖 Install Mech Arena for FREE here ☑️ clik.cc/hglLO and get a special starter pack to help kickstart your game! ⭐️ This video took way too long to make. I think the oldest alias I use in this video is Banana Man, and I used that when "What Exactly Is Wrong With Sniper" was in production, so about 4 months of practicing with the Syringe Guns until I felt like I could actually say my piece with confidence. Hopefully one single episode won't take this long again. I also felt like I rambled in the script a lot, once I saw just how long this episode ended up being, I realized I probably could have trimmed it down some. Even then there's things I missed talking about like how they're great for countering the Dragon's Fury. I'll probably get there in a future video. Hope you enjoyed this one.

You forgot to mention something important that makes the syringe gun projectiles even worse. Latency. See when the projectile is fired, it creates a fake projectile you see on your screen instantly, where the real projectile (which is invisible on your side) comes in a split second later depending on your latency. Basically this creates syringes that even though it looks like it hit the enemy, didn't actually hit the enemy.

@tgoas35033 жыл бұрын
@play gray If a soldier is right in front of you, and they aren't complete trash or hurt, they will almost always win regardless of your primary. Scouts I'll give you. I do find scouts much easier to take out with syringes than crossbow bolts. I think the crossbow is one of the best weapons in the game for dealing with spies. You can check people by if they're healed incrediblly easily. In combat it might not quite hold up to the syringes but on balance I'd say it beats out syringes against spies. If a demoknight is charging at you, and isn't severely injured, you will die either way. It's a similar story with pyro. If they're in range to hurt you, they'll kill you before you kill them. Besides, superior range is how to counter pyros, and crossbow outranges syringes. I'd rather try for a saw and run away on an unprepared heavy than spray them with syringes and hope they miss long enough to finish them off. Same with demos really. If you try to spray them down with syringes, you run the risk of them turning round and deleting you. Might as well go for a saw, and either crit them or force them to take splash damage. The syringes do have use cases. In my opinion you've identified one situation where the syringes clearly outdo the crossbow without debate. I don't know, 1/10 classes doesn't seem appropriate...

@@OutlawedPoet the quickie bomb isn't that good because you only get 4 stickies, and they have to be charged in order for them to get the extra damage bonus. The weapon is designed to be a long range artillery...thing. The problem is, this is only good against sentry's, and even then the stickies are easily reactable, meaning the engie literally has the time to pack up his gun, or just wrangle the sentry to tank the hits. Plus, sticky spam is objectively the most powerful thing out of the launchers, and the stock does it the best, which is the reason why no one uses the Scottish and quickie bomb, because Scottish has a delay between the stickies, and the quickie requires charging and has half a clip. That is not to say the launchers are bad, I mean they're still launchers, meaning they can absolutely wreck your shit.

Keep stock the same since it's job is to teach new medic that you shouldn't shoot, you should heal with the Blutsager being Medic milestone one it is the games way of telling you "You understand this class now, have some actual defense now" If the Overdose was to have a secondary affect then it could probably be a speed boost on patient depending on uber % with the speed being the old 10% increase.

First of all either all medic weapons reload when stowed or none of them should. Secondly give the syringe guns an effect when hitting teammates. For stock it could give a minor heal, for blut it should heal the medic as it does now and for the speedy syringe speed boost allies and/or yourself on hit. That way theyre never the main thing you use but usable at least with stock still being a downgrade from xbow but not functionally obsolete.

Medic and Sniper are equally overpowered.

As a medic main with well over 1.5k hours on him, it stings how one note medic’s options are to be serious, so I end up pulling the other options occasionally for fun. Stock syringe gun is a meme weapon, not because its good, but because actually killing with it and dying to it is hilarious / infuriating Blutsauger is the best option as its downside of lower passive regen is negated by healing injured teammates as your regen is boosted when you do so. If you want an alternative, this is the next best option. Overdose is kinda underwhelming but with one simple change it’d become a genuine viable alternative. Make it passive. Heck, make only half the boost passive and have the full effect occur when active, then it becomes a genuine alternative.

9:47 I think it’s reasonable to say that their BOTH overpowered in different ways. Medic can demolish teams with ubercharge, give teammates an edge before fights start with overheal, and help hurt teammates get back in the fight with healing. That’s really strong. Sniper can kill people in a very short amount of time from any range. Also very strong, but in different ways. I think the main reason people want to nerf sniper and not medic is because medic can only heal 1 person at a time, and must heal them for multiple seconds in order for the effect to be noticeable, whereas sniper can kill 5 of the 9 classes from far away at any range. Your right, medic is overpowered, but sniper is too.

9:50 Challenge accepted. In terms of why I think Sniper is OP, I’d say I hold the same opinion as Uncle Dane’s comment on your “What’s wrong with sniper” video. The only thing I might add is that in that video, you seem to define “OP” as being both really strong and also being easy to use, which I don’t think is why most people call him OP. So I think your definition of OP is kind of coloring your perspective on the issue for starters. Dane brings up that there is virtually no counterplay to a Sniper that is that good, and your response is you’d be okay with quick scope time being lengthened, but don’t really address the current lack of counterplay for snipers playing at that level. Now what does this have to do with Medic? Well I think Medic matches your definition of OP, as an unskilled medic can certainly have a big impact on a game, way more than an unskilled sniper. But an amazing sniper can have a bigger impact on a game than an amazing medic because of the counterplay issue mentioned earlier, particularly if they are on opposing teams. If a sniper can just quickscope a medic the second he pushes with his team, it doesn’t matter how good the medic is because there’s very little he or his team can do about it. He can’t even really ubercharge to avoid it, because he’d have to know where the sniper is beforehand when sniper can reposition and quickscope with ease. Likewise, if one team has an amazing medic and the other team just has a good medic, the worse medic can still “counter” the other medic by healing the classes that are more adept at countering medic. Sniper isn’t really like that, in part because the best way to counter sniper is with another sniper who is as good or preferably better. It doesn’t matter how good at sniper you are if the enemy sniper is better, because he can kill you almost every time and you have little hope of killing him, so to contribute to the game you just have to hope you don’t run into him. Tl;dr While a bad medic contributes more than a bad sniper, a good medic has more counter play than a good sniper and your contribution as medic isn’t invalidated by there being a better medic on the enemy team in the same way there is with sniper.
@Underworlder53 жыл бұрын
that is the main issue that has been cited multiple times. outside of being a better sniper, the only way to outplay sniper relies on him missing his shots. the entire team can play around a skilled sniper and he will be nearly unbeatable (pocket medic to make him immune to quickscopes, and potentially a pocket pyro to make him spyproof)
@Jebidijed3 жыл бұрын
100% agree, time to whip out my own doctorate-degree thesis - whether or not you die to a sniper is entirely dependent on the enemy sniper's skill, and not your own. while you can theoretically crouch, try to move unpredictably, and do hitbox-adjustment shenanigans, there simply isn't a way to "dodge" hitscan - either the sniper hits, or he doesn't. also, the argument of "just don't go in sniper sightlines" i see a lot is kinda... ehhh? the area where a sniper is dangerous is, effectively, everywhere in front of him. if you get in a heavy or scout's danger zone, that's A: your fault or B: clever flanking/positioning by that enemy --- a sniper's danger zone extends as far as the map lets it, so even with a braindead team, a good sniper can always lock down an entire portion of the map by just existing nearby... medic is extremely powerful and makes his team as a whole harder to deal with via healing, but sniper makes his whole team harder to deal with by staying behind them and instakilling anyone he's good enough to hit - while in a vacuum, sniper is definitely easier to kill when he's distracted or caught off-guard, there's nothing actually stopping him from simply being good enough to headshot you... even if that's technically unrealistic, medic, for instance, is a sitting duck unless you walk in to his syringes or ubersaw RNG slaps you in the face. demoman and soldier are ridiculous damage-dealing powerhouses whether they're alone or not, but you can potentially dodge anything they throw out, and simply outdamage them before you get blasted by 100-damage projectile after 100-damage projectile. ...and then sniper either misses and you win, or he aims good and you lose. i think a lot of people hate sniper for the same reason everyone reasonably hates random crits - you instantly die to something that, while you can TECHNICALLY overcome, is 99% out of your control.

Oh hey, I made a comment about this too. Just gonna copy and paste this here: "Come at me Sniper is overpowered crowd". Okay. I will. No salt here, I just can't stand the pompous self denial here. Get ready for a few paragraphs; I type everything in long form and hopefully you do get a laugh out of this because I like ya: It wasn't the Medic getting spammed by Bots as a means of harassing people into leaving servers. Believe it or not, your low skill ceiling high yield class isn't immune to reality. Love your videos, but c'mon. We're talking about a class where, with a little bit of skill in AIMING in a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER, you can one shoulder every class in the game except the Heavy. In matches where the rest of your team is, at the very least, applying PRESSURE to the enemy team, you can effectively become an unstoppable nuisance. Being that I have watched all your other videos, I know you have this perception that there is such a thing as "Honorable Sniping", but that's just a genuinely cringey gesture. There is no scummier gesture in any game than being instantly killed without hope of something called, and say it with me, "Counterplay", by some dude a mile away you either can't see or can't focus on due to people around you. And TF2 is especially bad because 9 times out of 10, you WILL see them but legitimately can't do anything by the time you do because closing the distance means getting closer to the enemy team. Or running down a corridor. There is zero honor there. That is the WHOLE POINT of playing a Sniper; you effectively achieve the same effect as the Spy but at a safe range. Now I'm not saying it needs to be nerfed or changed, once again, the whole point of being Sniper is what I just established. But to say Medic is the most overpowered class? PFFFFFFFF. Medic is a playmaker. He has tools that temporarily and VERY situationally make you and a single teammate the most overpowered characters. He is, by all definitions, a Support. Helpless on his own, a target while with allies. There's a reason no one likes playing him. And, most ironically of all, his biggest counter is, say it with me: "HoNoRAblE sNiPErS". Get dumpstered on my man. Just own the fact that you play a scumbag class. I do it all the time in other games."

Is sniper overpowered? Yes. Is medic overpowered? Also yes. The thing is that at the highest level of play, the enemy team’s sole healer is always going to be more centralised than any other class, unless that class is able to one shot anyone at any distance with consistency.

You know what would be interesting? A dedicated "battle medic" subclass. You get a new medi-gun, and in doing so medic's coat turns black like he's one of the Empire's operators in Star Wars (the guys wearing all black and having those giant helmets). The coat is so you are visibly distinct from a regular medic, so players will anticipate for you to not be as helpful as one. As for what you get out of it battle-wise, an increase in the rate at which you self-heal would be interesting, and increased damage from your primary as well. Increased syringe speed would be important. The medi-gun itself would have the ability to heal in large bursts. When you start healing someone, a big bulge will appear in the heal beam and they will get healed significantly, but then the beam fades away and they stop getting healed. The heal beam is still locked on and a second or so later another burst of healing comes out of the medi-gun. The overall healing is lower than stock and even the burst is not overly impressive; this medi-gun is mainly to let the battle medic quickly heal someone up a bit and get back to what they were doing. Also you are likely not using crusader's crossbow with this medi-gun unless you want to be sniper, and this still has that burst healing. Ubercharge? Instead of gaining uber by just healing, you could also gain uber by dealing any damage. You can still heal for uber, but that is reduced. The ubercharge, when activated, makes only the battle medic invincible, but they do not need to have the medi-gun selected to have it active on them. That is to say, the uber is purely for the medic and allows him to be completely invincible even while using his primary or melee. All of those combined into stats (the numbers might be ridiculously good or bad how would I know, I'm just making them up): [Battle Medi-Gun] > Heals players in bursts of 35 health every two seconds (each burst gives 2% uber, or 1% if the target is not injured) +2 Self-healing per second +15% Damage on primary +50% Syringe speed +Ubercharge remains active even while medi-gun is not active -No overheal -Cannot ubercharge teammates

"I don't know how to buff the syringe guns without making medic too strong" Giving the medic a more powerful syringe gun isn't making him too strong. As a medic main I can tell you that it doesn't matter how strong the syringe gun is, anytime you're using it you are wasting time you could have spent healing your teammates and building über (which is why the amputator's active effect is near useless). No the medic is not the most overpowered class, if there's no teammates around me (which happens a lot because people think medibeams give them immunity to damage) I'm basically useless. No other class relies on having a teammate nearby to be useful. Oh, I can make someone overpowered with medi gun charge? Useless without my teammates making sure I can get to 100%. Even then, you may have to pop it when you least want to just to survive. Would I use any syringe gun if they gave them more damage? Probably not, because it doesn't matter how much damage it can deal, it can't heal teammates. So again, there's no way Valve could reasonably buff the syringe guns to make Medic overpowered, and if you think that medic is overpowered, you should look back at TFC with all of his weapons and grenades while being completely balanced.

Scout is the most overpowered class in comp especially compared to his TFC counterpart. They gave medic two of the best weapons in TFC and it was completely balanced. The fact is that TF2 is a dumbed down reworked version of TFC and that's not a bad thing; but it creates a community of people who can't think outside the box.

@@cfroi08 You don't need very good players to show the medic is the best class. With 2 teams of equals skill, if one has a medic and the other doesn't, the one who doesn't is at a massive disadvantage. It's the only class capped in comp because otherwise, most teams would run 2 medics to be meta, and this is true for at any level of skill. Of course like most support, they only enhance the performance of the players around them (and thus, if there is a huge disparity of skill, it's not a good idea for the best players to play medic), but when you make 2 peoples perform 3 times better, you have earned your best class award without discussion.

@@antcig if there's two teams of equal skill and one has a medic and one doesn't, that means that other team could have an extra pick class which can kill the medic, or DPS class which can negate healing. I like your argument, and I love playing medic, but overpowered is not what I would call Medic. He fulfills his role but that's it. He's just as necessary as a DPS or pick class. Overpowered implies Medic can do more than what his role requires or that his abilities are unfair which is not the case.

As you asked, here's a take on the sniper being overpowered controversy: I'd say that sniper is not overpowered overall, but is overpowered in theory. Sniper can instantly kill any class in the game even if they are overhealed and an extremely good sniper could theoretically shut down the entire enemy team. In practice, sniper is almost never op, but the amount of power sniper has when played very well overpowers the impact and capability of the other classes in my opinion.

An idea to balance the syringe guns Is that teammates heal equal to damage you would’ve done from syringes . This keeps the crossbows clutch and long range healing while making the syringes more useable. Hell, the blutsager can heal when hitting teamates, with a downside of slower projectiles to make both battle medic and self heal harder.

@demi-femme48212 жыл бұрын
I had an idea for a new syringe gun. I don't have a specific concept for the name, but I know I want it to reference chemical warfare in WWI. Essentially, every hit inflicts poison, a status that's essentially the same as bleed, but every tick of damage causes a significant flinch. The duration would be cumulative, increasing with each hit syringe. There would be two major uses: self-defense and weakening dangerous threats. If you fire off some shots while running away, the enemy's aim getting thrown off with poison could give you the chance to slip away or survive long enough to kill them. On a more offensive role, the weapon would be able to mitigate the threat posed by the likes of a pocketed Heavy. If you manage to land some hits before Uber goes off, the flinch could mess them up enough for your team to survive and push. Poison can be cured by health packs, but not Medi-guns. Granted, it wouldn't last long even at max duration. Maybe 12 seconds at most for hitting 10 shots in rapid succession, and the duration would have ramp-up and falloff as well. The major downside is that it would be the weakest syringe gun for raw damage-like 80 DPS at close range before poison-and that an enemy could learn to cope with poison. Edit: obviously, this would have to be balanced. I don't think this pitch would work if it was implemented verbatim. Maybe the duration should be more because the syringe gun is hard to aim, maybe the damage should be changed, maybe the poison should do less than 4 damage a tick, or maybe it should have a different secondary effect rather than the flinch.

Remember he said that the enemy thinks that they would get a free kill, try to run away like a freak, use corners and walls as your advantage because the enemy has no choice but to approach you. At the same time, fire this weapon where the enemy is going to go since the projectiles will stay active more than almost other weapons.

I honestly prefer classic style TF Medic to TF2 Medic, with med packs and a full arsenal able to stand up for himself, and the ability to infect an enemy player with a disease that they can spread to their teammates, and can only be cured by another medic. Honestly to me the crossbow has nothing on that.

ok so idk why if ppl would use the syringe guns they use it for really long periods of time. Keep in mind that every syringe will do about 8-10 damage, so firing about 10 would easialy do something. Just like the crossbow you dont use it for extremly long times (unless you're a god at hitting shots). I know the counter arguent would be that the crossbow is used exactly like that and much more effectivly since it reloads passivly. Actually come to think of it, the passive reload is what makes the crossbow SO GOOD. If it didnt have that it would be way more s l o w , since you only have one shot and then a 1.8s relaod (or less i havent checked the wiki). I dont like the crossbow since it seems just unfair. You are not punished for missing unless it in a close range fight. It doesnt matter if you would hit a teammate or an enemy and generally makes the medic more of a pussy if I would say. Equiping the crossbow instantly allows you to play like a sniper. Hit or miss you have 40 shots and each would heal as much as a quickscope. w h y

5:27 "Does the syringe gun hold up to it's quake Nailgun forefather?" Maybe not, but the nailgun bar wasn't very high either. The nailguns were useful in Quake's single player campaign because the monsters moved around slowly and relatively predictably, so you could actually practice and get good at tracking them and leading your shots. This made the nailguns precise and effective against them. However, in multiplayer, you were faced up against real people who often had bunnyhopping techniques down to a T and who could move both fast and very unpredictably thanks to airstrafing and bunny hopping. It was trivially easy for a player to simply outrun the nails from a nailgun by bunnyhopping real fast, and dodging them was even many magnitudes easier than that. This made the nailguns nearly useless in Quake 1's Multiplayer, as you would have to get stupidly lucky to hit someone with it, and it would be entirely on accident rather than your aim as a player. As far as the niche of an automatic weapon is concerned, most players tended towards the Lightning gun instead, which was hitscan and outclassed the super nail gun on DPS anyways, and most multiplayer map makers gravitated towards including a lightning gun somewhere important in their deathmatch maps since they knew how irrelevant the nailgun was to multiplayer deathmatch play. Quake 3 would see the concept of a rapid-fire projectile weapon return in the form of not a nailgun, but the plasma rifle. The plasma rifle, while not seen used anywhere near as often as the lightning, was actually somewhat useful this time around. The lightning gun in this title was downgraded from an endgame BFG-like super weapon to another power weapon in an arsenal of power weapons, fulfilling the role of the automatic hitscan weapon to outclass the starter machine gun that players spawn in with. So, seeing as though the plasma rifle was an automatic projectile weapon that was harder to aim and hit shots with simply by design, Id software made it outclass the lightning gun in DPS by default rather than the other way around to reward players for using a potentially more difficult or situational weapon. On top of this, the weapon's projectiles also travel much, much faster than they did in Quake 1, and player movement in Quake 3 is much more predictable and a bit reigned in since it uses a completely different approach to "Air strafing" (which doesn't steer you through the air very much at all in Quake 3), and players couldn't move quite as absurdly fast (although still more than fast enough). All of these factors combined to actually give the automatic projectile weapon a decent enough niche in multiplayer play that's distinct from the lightning gun. Quake Champions takes the same approach, except it's a nailgun instead of a plasma rifle again, and there's a regular variant and a "super" variant (the former which you can choose to spawn with, and the latter replacing the former if you pick it up around the map).

@@cheeseburgerfreedomman5841 Their multiplayer, while not always lively, has always been accessible in various forms, especially through various "sourceports". The long and short of it is that John Carmack released the source code for bothh Doom and Quake to the public, and people have been making their own versions of the engines with more graphics features and better compatibility with modern OSes and standards. I haven't touched the Quake remaster yet, but the way I played it before the Quake remaster was a thing was by using a Quake-World sourceport called "nQuake". It's free, and it's easy to set up for both vanilla Quake and the Team Fortress mod for Quake. There are many different sourceports for Doom each with their own amount of multiplayer features, but the three biggest ones for Doom that center around multiplayer first and foremost are Zandronum, Odamex, and ZDaemon. Odamex is free and open source, it's pretty close to vanilla with some newer modes and features, and it has great support for huge servers that have tons of players, as well as some extra features for custom maps like increased mapping limits. ZDaemon is actually free to play but closed source, but it integrates tightly with a centralized service that has loads of player information and customization options, as well as stat tracking and stuff. Zandronum is based off an older version of "GZDoom" and "Skulltag", and it has the most features for modders out of a multiplayer source port by far, so this is what you would use if you want to play some heavily modified Doom online with other people, such as Brutal Doom.
