Doesn't matter as much in 6s but in general gameplay, pyro does WAAAAY too much damage with zero aim required

Yes but you actually have to aim those. Pyro is still shit at range but as soon as he can so much as look at your general direction, you get melted in 1-2 secs.

Like I said, doesn't matter as much in high level 6s because focus fire/heals/human aimbot scouts but in general tf2 gameplay it's just retarded. Hell I even tried playing pyro in lobbies against players that are far better than your average pubbie and I consistently got 300+ dpm just by holding m1 and walking forward.

Either way, I agree that Valve fucked up the normal flamethrowers' flames and tracking, while DF has too big hitbox imo

I really don't see the point of these threads. Of course pyro has a very low skill floor and skill ceiling, it's been known for a long time. You're just stating a fact. I can't really see any suggestion on how to fix that here. And if you're saying pyro does too much damage/should do less damage then sorry but no way. The only situation in which he's even remotely useful is close range, in which he still does less damage than Heavy and somewhat equal to Soldier and Scout.

so you are talking about casual as in general gameplay, and not 6s? because casual in general is full of awful features lol, i dont think pyro puts it over the edge. im not saying that i disagree with you, but his range is still awful, has glaring weaknesses, and you can still deal with him.

Idk why I'm even replying to this but meh

Doom1it's been known for a long time.

The update came out a few weeks ago

Doom1The only situation in which he's even remotely useful is close range, in which he still does less damage than Heavy

Heavy? You mean the slowest class in tf2 whose primary also has a wind up time and further reduces his movement speed?

Doom1somewhat equal to Soldier and Scout.

You mean classes that have a finite clip size and require aiming to hit their shots and don't have a fridge sized cone that does the exact same amount of damage regardless of which part is actually touching you

Doom1 can't really see any suggestion on how to fix that here.

Lower the max dmg range to what it used to be and make it so the center of the cone does more dmg and the edges do less dmg so you cant just flail your mouse around and do max damage

It's still the fact that current flames work unintended and do not require proper tracking as Valve originally intended with their changes.

The update didn't change anything in terms of pyro skill floor/ceiling. And yes, Soldier and Scout require more aiming, so again, in this thread you're just saying pyro takes no skill. Well congratulations, didn't know that.

Antareshe's an engineer main what do you expect

An engie main that achieved more at 6s than you :) Wonder where that puts you on the scale.

the flamethrower does require some tracking skill, but i never read where valve stated that it requires perfect tracking. idk what you guys want, you can just shit on every pyro right now using the default. the DF probably needs changes, but im not sure what yall were expecting exactly

If it's something unintended and that's what you're talking about then how about stating it in the title or even first post? He doesn't say anything really, doesn't even specify if he means dragon fury or stock flamethrower, doesn't say what exacly changed that makes him feel that pyro does more damage now than he should and doesn't suggest any change. Useless thread.
