My idea:

My suggestion would be for a medigun replacement that allows medics to passively heal a nominated patient; occasionally using ubercharge to heal both him and his patient (nearly) instantaneously.

The Transfusor:
* All healing effects the medic receives are passed on to the patient instead.
* Damage dealt builds up Ubercharge in the same way buffer-banner rage is build up.
* Ubercharge instantly heals both patient and medic.

Several suggestions to improve Crit-a-cola. My personal favourite being: Give it full crits on primary usage instead of mini-crits; make its secondary function a throw-down like the Sandvich that grants mini-crits with no penalty.

Crit-a-cola (v.2)
* Primary Grants Crits for 6 seconds, plus vulnerability to mini-crits. Interruptible 1.2 second drink time.
* Secondary throws a can down, granting the person who picks it up 4 second of mini-crits, no penalty.

New Medic weapon:

The Bypass

Link: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=19292775#post19292775

Replaces Syringe gun.

+ Gains four short range plasma blasts from the secondary function for every 1200 health healed or overhealed (or it can be uber charge based), does not stack. Damage and fall off works somewhere between the Shortstop and the Scattergun.
- 1 health per second (i.e Medic will only regain 2 health a second at first)
- 20 normal ammo in the clip
- Ubercharge builds up 5% slower

Design idea: One of the worst things about playing pub Medic is having your heal target more concerned about themselves/deathmatching than your protection or the objective.

This gun gives the Medic better capabilities at protecting themselves but makes them overall slightly worse at doing some aspects of their job.

Because it requires the Medic to heal to recieve the benefit, it will not allow battle medics to become rampant or if they do, they will still have to heal to get their precious benefit and they are worse in combat until they have it due to the smaller clip.

Comp Medics or medics who like the class as is will find the normal syringe gun to be still the better choice (since it doesn't make them any worse overall at their job) and battle medics will still use the Blutsauger

To be honest, balancing the weapons damage and capabilities might be tricky, but its the design concept I'm more concerned with to make Medic and healing a bit more appealing to pub play.

My suggestion is a full item set for the Spy designed to convert him into more of a direct combat class with higher mobility and longer effective range, focusing on gunplay and better disguises rather than cloaks.

Fureur. An automatic revolver with higher ammo capacity, accuracy, and base damage, but has slower reload, no random criticals, and no close range damage rampup.

Le Fantasme. A knife which instantly cloaks the spy for up to 6 seconds upon making a successful backstab. Enforces a delay before decloaking, drains all cloak charge once it makes a backstab kill, and has a maximum backstab damage of 225. Cloak does not flicker.

Diablotin. A Sapper replacement which produces a field of electricity, damaging both players and buildings for ten seconds. Does not disable buildings. Can be thrown on walls and objects like a sticky bomb, but is vulnerable to bullet weapons.

The Baroque Bifocals. A pair of gold-plated and gold-tinted sunglasses with swirly eyes. Replaces the Invisibility Watch. Instead of cloaking, allows the Spy to see enemy players and buildings through walls for a short distance for a limited duration.

Set bonus. Increases mid-range revolver damage. Provides 25 max HP. Disguises and cloaks now completely hide all visual and audible effects (fire, jarate, milk) that would normally expose them to the enemy team. Spy will take additional self-damage from the Diablotin if he is not disguised and also have a slightly longer delay when changing disguises.

My suggestion:


Pyro starts with 200 hp, but the Degreaser gets a -25 hp penalty

Sapper sends a disabler charge for three seconds.

The Swapper is a Sapper replacement intended to mix spy's building tactics up a bit.

The Swapper changes the team allegiance of a building as long as it's attached to that building (RED sentries sapped by a BLU spy will fire at RED team members and vice-versa). Additionally, dispensers drain the energy of their former teammates, and teleporters work in the opposite direction (exit works as entrance and entrance works as exit).

Instead of starting at full HP, the Swapper "charges" its health during a boot-up period of four seconds, after which it is functional. It has twice the health of a regular sapper, but can be removed by any attack by any class.

Hello,

I'd like to point out a mod that has been made to test out new weapons, maybe some of them in there may be of interest:

[ledwiston]

I don't know if this is practical or not but maybe something similar to the eyelander for the sniper, with this skin (http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2009/07/skull_buster_tf2_sniper_skele-rifle_mod.php) and whoever you headshotted last would be the skull that would show up on the rifle when you respawned. Here is my idea using that skin

-when you respawn, the last person you headshotted would show up as the skull

-for the first shot after you respawn, you do half as much damage as the HP of the last person you headshotted

like this, you headshot a heavy, then die. you respawn, heavies skull is on your gun. then the next person you shoot, regardless of headshot or not, would do 150 damage (1/2 of heavies HP, 300)

comments or anything? :)

I know that the Heavy isn't suppose to be able to switch weapons fast, but I think it would definitely be a cool idea because it would be useful if a Scout keeps pestering you. I also have seen too many weapons that have more fire damage as a con and none with more explosive damage. The name I first gave definitely needs to be changed, but I have no idea what it could be. Before anyone makes fun of my idea, seriously think how it would work in the game and if it is overpowered and don't just say my idea sucks without looking over it.

My feedback/suggestible on the flamethrower and degreaser (not back burner as it has no compression blast) is to give the pyro a small boost jump from air blasting the ground.

Nothing super significant, but it would make sense and maybe help the pyro out a bit. I think it should be less than the force of nature jump, and maybe around the size of a crouch jump or something would be good.

Turret Reloader

Small "blimp" that floats about your turret.

- replaces dispenser in loadout
- automatically replenishes ammo for turret
- doesn't heal damage to turret
- can be shot down, but the turret will automatically target whoever is attacking the blimp if it can.
- basically frees up engineers to get more involved rather than constantly reloading the turret.

[GordonFrohman74]

My Suggestions are:

*FaN
Has second fire button, which makes FaN shoot from the second barrel. Pressing both mouse buttons at a time will release both shots. But here are some issues. Shooting from both barrels at a time will move you back, even if you are standing on the earth, and if enemy is really close, you will hurt yourself on 40 hp.
(Why? This will make Scout balancing between dealing huge amount of damage, and taking it by himself.)

*Bonk! Atomic Punch
Works really like "missing". Bullets will not push you (no more "Bonk + sentry = outer space"), but explosions will.
(Why? I have Logic turned on + many new strategies, like sentry fake targer etc.)

*Sandman
May be put on fire, like Huntsman. 1st attack or launched ball will set enemy on fire. -5% attack speed.
(Why? Teamplay with pyro. They had not so many things to do together before.)

*Holy Mackerel
No Random crits. Every 4th hit is critical.
(Why? hit, hit, hit, FISHKILL! This will make enemy die by Humiliating.)

*Gunboats
Instead of "-60% damage dealt by rocket jumping" has "-30% damage of rocket jumping" and "-75% falling damage".
(Why? Rocket Jumper is too same with Gunboats. Falling damage sometimes can deal big damage, so they can be usefull even without rocket jumping.)

*Buff Banner
Pressing the right mouse button, you can release your banner on the place, where you're standing. After your death Placed Banner's Effect will stand till the end. After dropping the banner, your secondary weapon will be unavailable. Visiting respawn cabin (or just respawning) will break the banner.
(Why? Making more team play, like put banner on the point and go fight somewhere else.)

*Batallion Backup
Same as Buff Banner.
(Why? Read prev. line)

*Pain Train
Now this weapon can be used by: Scout, Soldier, Pyro and Sniper. (Not Demoman).
(Why? Demoman with sticky jumper and paintrain can be really annoying capturing points, jumping all around. I am not angry, this is my strategy too. Sniper and Pyro will become more usefull in caping points. Scout will become Ultimate capping machine, but more damage from bullets for a guy with ~100 hp - really risky)

*Backburner
Added airblast, but it is so weak, that it can only extinguish your team mates (No Deflections).
(Why? Making Battle Pyros more usefull for team.)

*Natascha
TF2 Beta default variant. (-spinning time)
(Why? I don't like other variants.)

*Frontier Justice
Only 1 ammo in a clip (this is pretty funny, I think), +15% accuracy.
(Why? Making a stupid crit-spamming weapon with large bullet spread some kind of weapon, which kills faster, having a nice accuracy.)

*Gunslinger
Little changes for Mini-Sentry: They are repairable now, but Gunslinger cannot repair anything (it still can upgrade, add ammo, but not repairing); +30 hp (155 now)
(Why? Making Mini-Sentries more team-playable. Engieneer with GS will have to cover and to be covered by Engineer without GS)

*Whole Engineer Change*
To move anything, it has to transform back to the box (reversing animation). Mobilisation will take 3 (teleports, mini sentries) - 5 (lvl 3 sentry) seconds of holding right mouse button. Releasing it will make object build back. Speed while carrying the box - +10% (for balance).
(Why? Making Engineers moving faster with buildbox, but having less chance to run away, seeing Uber-%CLASSNAME%)

*Vita-saw (!Alert! Very experimental suggestion!)
Original stats, but more over - hitting teammate with it will heal him instantly for 25%. Hitting disguised spies will heal them too.
(Why? Trying to make more interesting gameplay, making Medic healing faster, but making him less defended from Spies)

*Sydney Sleeper
Instead of covering Jarate, this weapon can make headshots, but the damage will be the same. But only damage! Shooting in the body will make enemy Bleed for 5 seconds. Shooting the head will STUN the enemy.
(Why? Turning lame gun for lazy people, who don't even have to aim to the head into gun, which still needs aiming, but more team-playing, helping with assistance. Plus, this is more logical. Sniper shoots darts with Jarate, or some sleeping draft?)

*Bushwacka
100% critical hit on bleeding, stunned, scared enemies. No random crits. (no fire damage vulnerability)
(Why? Changes are made according to changes of Sydney Sleeper.)

*Huntsman
Holding Left mouse button for too long (after the shaking) will release the arrow. Killing sniper with maximum strained bow will also release his arrow.
(Why? Physics, plus ability to kill anyone after your death.)

PS. Robin Walker, I am still working on FUN Update. I have not forgot!

[ned_ballad]

I'd be interesting to test the Backburner making the Pyro Medic speed. This would allow him to chase hide, and follow someone and take them from behind.

Maybe either that, or some sort of charge attack, different from the Targe in practice, but similar in effect. No crits or minicrits from charging, but rather just a fast catch up dash that uses 50 ammo.

Like a quick burst of speed for a few seconds that replaces Airblast.


Backburner 1
+15% damage done
+5% speed
100% critical hits from behind
No compression blast

Backburner 2
+15% damage done
100% critical hits from behind
Alternate fire quick dash*
No compression blast

*Uses 50 ammo

I feel these would encourage the Pyro to hide and stalk, since it would be easier to lunge out from corners and attack his victims

Remove knockback from normal shots

Make the knockback a bit stronger and give it the ability to knockback ubered enemies

Riot Surge:
The newest, and probably most complicated shotgun. It is Offense-oriented. Each clip only holds five bullets, and your reserve ammo is reduced to 20, but for every clip that is used, you gain an increase in attack, reload, and movement speed. You cannot reload this shotgun until all the rounds in a clip have been used and you cannot stop reloading until your clip is full. Also, each shot progressively grows from less powerful to more powerful as you move from the 1st to 5th shot in each clip.


Attack speed, reload speed and movement increase as reserve ammo is used up
+66% base damage per pellet on 5th shot
+33% base damage per pellet on 4th shot
-33% base damage per pellet on 2nd shot
-66% base damage per pellet on 1st shot

[FreeWillySweep]

My ideas:

Howitzer for The Heavy.

A large cannon that holds one shot at a time and has a slow reload rate. Cannon shell fires with an arc somewhat like a Huntsman arrow and has splash damage. Right click causes The Heavy to swing the Howitzer as a melee weapon. This changes the heavies role into heavy artillery. I picture the howitzer being something akin to this (minus the wheels obviously):

http://www.imfdb.org/images/thumb/8/8c/Howitzer.jpg/350px-Howitzer.jpg




Air Wrench for the Engineer.

The air wrench can only be used with a dispenser and the game actually renders an air hose from the wrench to the dispenser when the player has it out (much like the healing effect of a dispenser but with longer range). The air wrench builds and repairs much faster than the regular wrench. You can pistol-whip with it too for a melee attack and to remove sappers.
This weapon would be for defensive engies who want to sacrifice mobility for better upkeep. With enough metal, you can repair a level 3 sentry faster than any single class can destroy it.

The Trencherman
-10% move speed
Alt-fire creates a barricade

The Trencherman behaves much as a regular shovel, except striking the floor with it produces a temporary barricade.

The barricade is dispenser-sized, and like the dispenser, can only block enemies and the soldier himself. It has 400 health, twice as much as a sentry.

Only one barricade per Soldier can exist. The barricade-making ability recharges 8 seconds after it's destroyed.

The thread linked above discusses other ideas for giving the medic explosive damage resistance.

[misterpickles69]

Pros:
- Would be wearable by Heavy, Medic, and Engineer
- +50 health
- Works like the medigun but dispenses primary weapon ammo (not metal) instead of health

Cons:

- Replaces primary weapon
- Only dispenses 2X normal primary ammo half as fast as a dispenser before needing a recharge at a dispenser or picking up metal for +50 ammo *
- Reduces speed by 15%



None of this is set in stone for me but I think it would be Healpful to have a teammate feeding ammo on the fly to another teammate during a push. I can't recall the number of times I've had an uber ready just to have my target run out of ammo.

* Just to clarify this part, it will feed ammo at half the rate of a dispenser. The maximum ammo it gives will be 2X the primary ammo of the target. It can be switched from target to target like the medigun. It will have a "charge bar" like the medigun only it will show how much ammo is left in it.

Medigun replacement
Healing beam is now a solid cable.
The cable has an ability that is on a cooldown, like jarate or bonk.

-While activated, the cable allows the medic to be pulled by their patients (rocket/sticky jumping, possible scouts?)
-Higher ubercharge rate
-Slightly shorter healing range
-Takes a bit longer to switch patients (since the cable has to rewind)

The medic jump would be limited, so they'd only be able to follow a certain max height/distance.

Ubercharge: Deploys a bubble (bascially an aura with a visual aid) that heals anyone in it at a high healing rate - higher for the medic (or maybe even invulnerability). Not sure if medic should be able to use his medigun while ubered.

( )Alt Fire: ÜberShield. A shield that protects you, your healing target and up to 3 more teammates (The closest randomly players) with 50% Damage Resistance and supplies 10% Extra Damage. ÜberShield Stays twice longer then Übercharge (16 seconds)
The Ockham's Razor

(+)On front hit: Squint for 3 seconds, bleed for 4 seconds
(+)On backstab: Target's HP is halved and cannot move for 2 seconds. Squint for 6 seconds, Bleed for 15 seconds

I've been playing tf2 since the beta. I played qwtf since 1997 through, wow, 2001, I believe? I beta tested tfc at Valve when they were in Kirkland... I have some exp when it comes to the spirit of tf2. I've used the Scottish Resistance four times since I've received it during the demoman update. Each time I was increasingly more certain of my opinion that it sucked. Time has proved that opinion true.

Ideas for improvement: DECREASE the amount of time it takes to detonate a sticky from launch time. You should be able to detonate them almost immediately. Right now the Scottish Resistance is pretty much completely useless against any class that beats your sticky trap. Even if you nail a scout in your trap you cannot get another up in time to stop, say, a pyro from penetrating your area and +forward: +attack'ing you.

It has no particular added advantage for setting traps, yet it is significantly worse at short or close ranged combat than the regular sticky launcher. If it did less damage per sticky but detonated in half the time as a regular sticky I think it might actually be used. But as it is now it is pretty much useless. I have never contrived a scenario where the SR was better than the sticky launcher, even during the setup times of certain maps. You still cannot engage in combat with the SR without a great deal of luck on your side.

It should also be said that the Loch-n-Load is terrible. It either needs to have at least 4 nades in the clip and/or have the nades still bounce for spam damage. I haven't seen anyone even attempt to use the Loch-n-Load for more than 2 rounds of a public game.... and that says a lot to how useless it is. At best you can do 220?-260 damage (at best) before you have to reload. Good luck doing anything significant to a a heal/buffed soldier or heavier class. The weapon is useless. Not to mention is does a huge amount of damage to you if you happen to hit a skilled close range shot on a target. The added damage to you is an added insult to how bad this weapon is. I regret having purchased it. It, like the Scottish Resistance, will never be equipped in my inventory again without significant changes. I hope you can do better, because these two items are complete crap, and I know I am not alone in this stance.

It allows you get a guarantied mini crit, on a weapon that is terribly underpowered. It allows you to have perfect bouncing off of surfaces, however at the cost of damage.

This jousting lance will allow you to participate in the great Scottish sport of horseless jousting.

When the Joust is equipped with the Chargin' Targe, the charges become semi-controllable (you can do wide curves and jump over holes with it), as well as radically increasing the damage of the final hit.

The unfortunate side effect is that this unwieldy weapon is much harder to position for a proper strike that does not involve a head-on charge, and if you miss your strike, well, let us say scottish-rules jousting is not a television sport.

Make an audio cue play to let Pyros know when to airblast.

It could be an advanced option off by default, like Auto-Call at X health percentage for Medics.

As in, when the rocket is within the airblast area it plays a bing.

Now, some of you may say this is less skillful. Maybe, maybe. But Pyro needs a small core mechanic buff. It also doesn't help aim the reflected projectile - you can still easily miss.

I believe with this buff more Pyros will be good at airblast and therefore Pyro will be overall a more dangerous class.

It would be similar to the spin up and spin down buff to Heavy - a basic mechanic added to help make the class more dangerous and better at its core role.

Possible attributes;

-Cooldown timer/set amount of sappers.
-Takes twice as long to sap a building.

It'll prove better against turtling Engys but with a limited supply the Spy would be more cautious about using it. It also makes the Engy/Homewrecker wielding Pyro decide against losing the building or losing an amount of health.

THIS IS AN MESSAGE NOT FOR PROPOSING IDEAS BUT TO THOSE PROPOSING NEW STATS FOR WEAPONS ALREADY IN THE GAME:

STOP

Those people asking for new stats to weapons like the Lock and Load for example and saying it needs to have all these new features and it is a bad weapon and a nerfed weapon.........YOU ARE NOOBS......It like many other weapons are completely fine.
DO NOT....I repeat DO NOTask to change the stats to weapons like these to make it easier for you to use them.

Here is a list of weapons that DO NOT need any fixes at all/Are not to have their stats changed:

All sniper items
All spy items
All demo items
All soldier items
All engineer items
All medic items
All heavy items but the brass beast/ The heavy's poly pack item stats and or the polypack advantage
All scout items except the FaN (Force a' Nature)
All pyro items (The Backburner has even stats but it is fine to change them)

The items like the Fan, Backburner, Amputator, Ubersaw are the only weapons that could use a slight change in stats.

FaN: The reload time is not noticible and it only does 10% less damage per shot make it so that it does 20%-40% less damage per shot

Backburner: It's stats are even and perfectly fine, the problem is that it is misused, having more vulneralbility in exchange for a larger back crit space would probably fix it.

Udersaw/Amputator: Same the stats are even but since you are medic and will hardly use mellee the slower firing rate is unnoticible and causes the bonesaw to be useless, making the firing rate be 30% or even 35% would make it be better making the bonesaw be a viable option.

Brass Beast/Sleeping Bear polypack: The stats of the BB completely contradict the steak and claws the bonus isn't noticible at all make it so that the Heavy is either going to be a slow tank or a fast paced mellee fight much like the demo man has become.

New polypack requirements: The bonuses for the new packs don't make sense and the fact that you do not need a hat is dumb since the older packs need hats is weird now since in some packs is weird, make it so that you need the hats and change the bonuses for the demo pack and the heavy pack. Deamo pack: +20% less self damage to make up for the LnL's (Lock n' Load) self damage downside. Heavy pack: Will depend on what the new stats will be.

Also make it so that new reskins do not require 2 REFINED

A reminder to Valve that to first put the weapons in the beta before the game

And now my weapon ideas:

Gentlemans German Slap Glove: Medic mellee bonesaw reskin of an old leather glove that German officers used to interigate/ slap each other with.

Defibulator: Not the most origional idea but still a decent one for a mellee for the medic with a heart system.

Those are my only ideas so far i can think of,
I also would like to say as a parting remark to Valve about how dissapointed i was about the winter packs that were choosen; Why? the idea of having the packs be based on history is dumb there were SO MANY better packs Like cooking papa/ Battle torn weapons for the haevy and shock therapy for the medic, i am fine with the medic pack but still there were better choices, please think about this next time

The Foe-Finder (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1735216), a Spy tool which trades the ability to cloak for the ability to see all enemies through walls.
The Fancy Fencer (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1735244), an equally alliterative alternate knife for Spy that can only deal damage with a backstab, but protects the user's front from melee attacks.
The Extractor (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1735259) sounds menacing, but it's just a one-way teleport that replaces the a Spy's cloak.

Stalin's Sidearm: Pistol to replace heavy's shotgun that gives a speed boost when fired at enemy (ideal for escaping)

My thread on improving the Sydney Sleeper has been updated with a new variant based on responder feedback (after having the thread massively de-railed for a time)

Rifle charges at 200% rate.
Headshots apply 10 seconds of jarate.
Bodyshots apply jarate scaling up to 8 seconds with the charge amount.
Minicrits on headshots.
Fully crits on jarate.
Charge maxes out at 120 damage.

My suggestion would be to completely change some items and to add some completely new items. Leitmotif is making weapons alternatives rather than pure upgrates and adding missing weapons and gameplay styles. Please teake a look especially at new medic's unlocks.
It's on my blog because when I have it on forums someday someone delete it without reason (It was before beta). I'm not happy thinking about rewriting it again.

Not really an item suggestion, but a suggestion regarding the hatless. (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?p=20660519#post20660519)

[DrIvoRobotnik]

Well I think is widely agreed that the Backburner is pretty much the butt of the joke as Pyros go, so heres my two cents on my suggestion on how to "fix" it.


* -30% Damage
* Crits when burning from behind
* No random crits
* (keeps compression blast)
