Engineer Useless now?!????

Appeal to noobs.

Pepperidge farm remembers.

being able to kill people while afk.

totally not map dependant and quite relative.

disgusting.

Yes yes obviously it is useless if you don't want free afk kills.



Seriously, I'm quite unsure whether or not your threads are sarcasm or you actually believe all the things you write...

 

comparing it to how it was (and everything was) on MCPVP, this is a very reasonable, understandable opinion tbh ngl coming from a less experienced player

in the hands of a skilled regular, engineer can be quite useful and annoying as hek; otherwise, it's nothing too special or safe enough to have fun killing/supporting...for how squishy it is and semi-unreliable its turret is for any1 (esp a ninja) being able to sneakily break the turret while not getting shot at when directly adjacent to it

 

I hate this the most because it doesnt make sense, if i put the barrel of a gun literally against my face there is no way the shot wont hit me.

 

You can use it to kill those pesky Ninjas you struggle with so much. Just put down a turret, find a corner sorta far away, put down a cake, and steak when you get targeted by everyone.

 

Everyone has their own skill for each kit, you are probably great at some other kit, while others are great with the engineer kit, and have a low standard with the other kits.
It's a matter of opinion.

 

Necro > Engineer.

 

Correction:

Necro > All classes

 

Speaking of, can we disable TP Caps? Like ninja caps are annoying, but often easily stopped. TP Caps are a whole other level.

 

Yeah I feel, I guess it’s the maps that the engi’s set up can be close to the flag room that irritate me. Plus, if they have a turret down, it is somewhat harder to stop them from getting on the teleporter, which can also be irksome. Guess at the end of the day it’s a rule that fits in matches and not causal.

 

: )

 

TP Caps are more easily stopped than ninja caps, if your letting an engineer in or out of your flagroom with the flag, give him the time to stand perfectly still on a teleporter, and then have nobody on your offense or recovery even try to stop him from jogging to the flagroom, your defense is pretty incompetent.
Ninja capping is far more annoying due to the sudden-ness & speed a ninja has, while it too can be stopped its usually a “blink and you’ll miss it” thing where the slightest distraction could mean a cap.

Engineer is very commonly considered the noob class, to some extent that would be a correct assessment, but with a bit of hyperbole. Its very easy to be decent at engineer due to its annoying aimbot turret. But pretty much any player of higher skill can take it down easily, unless your like ninja and they’re already turtling.
A good engineer turns from a minor nuicense to a memace that gets people to call it the pain in the ass it can really be, good luck killing a skilled player playing as engi with no less than a buffed heavy or a chemist, cuz your sure as hell never finding them in a headshottable location
Oh and engineer’s breed like crazy.

 

Give me a reason to change my mind and disagrew[/QUOTE]

Well enggi is useful for back telepads. in other words place a telepad going from the other teams flag to your flag, meaning you don't have to run across the map. You only have to run to a tp pad. So, basically you just tp back to your side of the map, without running back, good for easy caps.

 

When people usually engi tele cap they go as 3 engis and they all set up and there is with them because of the teleport like 2 heavies a ninja and medic. Now let's say I log in and see that how would I be able to stop them in case it's a map where headshots are not gonna work?
Stopping them while they are running into the place is an option but let's say they set it up already, what can I do in that situation where there are now like 5 players with cakes and turrets and one of them with the flag?

 

In a game like CTF where a class's abilities cannot be used in certain locations because it would be too OP/unfair says a lot about the bad class design. (engi, elf, necro)
