So... a soldier primary that isnt a rocket launcher? Does it shoot big globs of lazerbeam? Those are some sexy new things and I want them

The rocket launcher seems pretty over powered. I haven't used it but it was getting a lot of kills on the server.

It shoots giant plasma-energy wave like things. Can still use it to rocket jump, and the primary can be deflected by pyro, although the secondary can not. It seems quite powerful against people, although its really shitty against buildings. The charge up feature seems quite good too. Me and taw were discussing that the most OP thing about it might be its kill animation, since it takes up a huge portion of the screen and the dead bodies float in teh air dramatically, kinda getting in the way

Apparently if you go to comic-con and visit the WETA booth you get a unique quality righteous bison. Yet another reason to lament not being at comic-con

I ment it was op in how good the kill animation is,a bad joke but I thought they did a good job with the death icon and the animation of people dying by it. But I think there is a problem with how big the plasmas are flying through the air, screen gets way more cluttered. But if I think if they made it any smaller if would be harder for pyros to sense when to airblast it.

I think all the bodies floating around are a problem too. Also, that gun makes my dad's shitty mac lag like a motherfuck, especially when other people die from it right in front of me

I feel like the engie should have gotten them instead of soldier, but meh. I like them and they are fun to play with, but I believe they do less damage then shottie/rocket launcher. Also the charged shot is just asking to get sniped since you move as slow as a heavy with the spin up. Overall, I think they are cool though.

How many freaking rocket launchers does the Soldier actually need? Does anyone else find these to be completely unnecessary?

Yeah.
Medic: 3 Ubercharge, 2 sets
Pyro: 3 flamethrowers, 1 set
Heavy: 4 Mini guns (5 if you count Iron Kurtain), 2 sets
Spy: 4 Knives, 3 Revolvers, 2 sets
Engie: 2 Shotguns, 2 Pistols, 3 Wrenches, no sets
Scout: 4 Main Weapons, 2 sets
Demo: Crap loads of melle weapons, but only 2 nade launchers, and 2 sticky launchers, 2 sets
Sniper: 4 Sniper rifles, 2 sets
Soldier: 5 Rocket Launchers!, 3 sets

Out of all those classes, only 1 is in serious need of more items, and only 1 needs less items. So yeah, Soldier needs way less items.

Theres actually 4 spy revolvers, but yeah, see your point

The term 'shovelware' comes to mind.

Specifically, it comes to my mind, every single time they add new stuff now.
