    Hi guys, i've stopped playing Team fortress 2 for about 1 month, when i stopped playing. The latest release was the Pyro kit. Can anyone tell me what has been updated since then? THX :)!

    You get the medic weapons with less achivements, and the health buff to pyrso with backburner has been removed.

    That is basically it. Doesn't matter though, it is the 100% crit from the back that makes the pyro unbalanced : D

    There are no spy weapons yet. It was a hoax.

    The next weapons update will be the heavy.

    The health boost from the backburner has been removed? Man I play TF2 all the time and I never noticed that. I try to avoid using the pyro because then people have an excuse as to why I am demolishing them over and over.

    dude you know it. I've always been mellow about gaming but something about being able to tear people apart is so many different ways with different classes makes me want to remind people of it.

    Rofl, I was in a match and our team had 5 Pyros and 2 Medics.... it was just bloody murder! 1 can be taken down real easy, but when you've got 5 of them, and 2 of them with Uber, they suddenly get a lot more powerful :p

    I was miffed that the Backburner lost the 50 hp boost - but that means fewer people are playing Pyro, which means I can play Pyro without feeling guilty about stacking the team.
    Heh heh heh...burn everyone.

    Although I should seriously get to unlocking the Medic achievements by now.

    So... My only real question is, is there ANY way to play the game offline with bots?

    That have AI?

    This is a huge issue for someone stuck on a dial-up connection a lot of the time.

    Nope, it's an online/lan game. You'll just have to either not play it, get friends over and LAN play it, go to a friends and use their internet, or upgrade!

    On another note: I didn't even realize that dial-up was still being offered xD
