hats.

this is the only acceptable answer

Is there an "aliens"-esque macro meme but instead hats?

This is the game where wearing brass knuckles with spikes on them makes your punches hurt less. Try not to apply logic.

Heavy's fists are made of steel. It makes sense.

Also hitting a guy with a mailbox kills him, and a rocket to the face doesn't (probably). But only if he's on fire.

A rocket launcher applies health benefits, only if you hurt the other guy.

Also wearing an alligators head on top of your head makes it so getting shot in the face with a sniper rifle is alright. That's my favorite.

Maybe the boolet hits the wrong face?

The alligator head only blocks bullets when you are also in possession of the rest of the crocodile, worn on your back, in addition to a dart gun full of piss.

Also, wrapping your axe with barbed wire makes it hurt less, but you swing more effectively when they are on fire.

HATS

Medigun, Cloaking, Teleporters. Also black Scots.

Enleat•

Hey, black Scots DO exist.

Heavy swings faster, ergo less power packed between punches.

2
DerpMatt•

You people know nothing about ballistics.

21
Twisted_Fate•

Are you implying that snubnosed .38 has more stopping power then .45 ?

2
DerpMatt•

Also...stopping power does not technically exist. There is velocity, and how hare the bullet hits. pounds per square inch and all that mathematical stuff. A .45acp is a very slow bullet compared to the .38, even out of a short barrel.

Indierocka•

a 38 is actually slower than a .45 acp if you're referring to a .38 special. If you're referring to a .357 magnum then yes it is faster than a .45 acp provided that you aren't pushing it out of a <2" barrel

2
DerpMatt•

no....

It's TF2. Does anything make sense?

You mean besides the hats?

The hats don't even make sense sometimes. fucking unusuals.

Fuckin Spy revolvers

How do they work?

Backupusername•

Wow.

I know I've been playing too long when just the sight of the Enforcer makes me rage.

Also, I really need to grow up and not get so mad about video games.

It's like penis, size doesn't matter, it's the technique that matters.

vicaphit•

You could try firing a cannon ball out of a cannon with the gunpowder that is contained in a 9mm cartridge. It is bigger, yes, but doesn't have enough power to do anything.

Therefore, the power of the bullet isn't about the size of the slug, but the amount of propellant, and the speed in combination with the size of the slug.

Love this serious discussion about being "realistic" in TF2, of all games.

I Uber all of you, and Teleport all of your facts back to wikipedia. :D

If you are good, the ambassador does more damage.

gilmore606•

In real life, this doesn't do nearly as much damage as this.

2
QuintonFlynn•

Why does this entire thread remind me of Men in Black?

Chronomasc-R•

If you think about it...

This was back in the time where Valve made an effort to balance the Spy.

2
rindindin•

Longer the better. Don't you know?

2
agenthex•

Also, a blast of compressed gas can redirect RPG shells in whatever direction you desire. Has same effect on arrows, too. Did I mention that a blast of air can also change the damage characteristics of enemy pipe bombs? How about a crossbow that heals. Did you forget about an icicle that never melts (and prevents you from burning)?

This game is ridiculous in every way. Why would you even attempt to apply logic to it?

2
Nintendork64•

But the scout's double-jump makes complete sense.

2
[deleted]•

The magic gun that shoots beams of "health" doesn't bother you. This does.

2
[deleted]•

Enforcer needs some more debuff.

2
nicecrispybacon•

Exactly: the ambassador is quite...mindblowing.

2
Trenchleaf•

You're worrying about realism.....in Tf2?
