Thread title.
not only is the Fleeing useless for the sandman me and davis just found out it doesnt even work.
you can fire your gun while stunned.
and as for alt fires, ubers, sticky detonation, huntsmen, zoom... you name it everything and i mean everything except the the demo's charge works while your stunned.
you can even build a dispenser.
Looks like valve forgot to click when they where testing this alternative, because thats all you have to do.
what
the
fuck.

I was going to guess that they didn't code that into the "flee" state because it was only used in after-round slaughter, but then I realised they did it in KOTH_Harvest_Event so gg Valve :downs:

I liked it when you were able to bonk ubers.
Also I noticed this too when i was spraying bullets at everyone with natascha, haw haw haw.

Videos were corrupted, but I was able to find a video on Youtube for this glitch.

Edit: Looks like you can't reload when you are stunned.

achievement servers - thats how you get items. :D
I realized I could still do anything while stunned immediately. :V
But scout's my fav to play as.... :( I hope they change that soon.

^truth.
tried doing it the legit way and it's just a complete waste of time and energy. i mean really i shouldn't have to have fucking 3 duplicates of the SAME item to make scrap metal!
and there shouldn't even be reclaimed metal i mean wtf.

I liked the old Sandman system better, really. The farther you were from the enemy the longer the stun lasted, and point blank did damage but no stun. I don't see why people can't handle being stunned for half a second from up close Sandman bonks but I guess haters gonna hate
Also FaN is already a horrible weapon, let horrible people use it and be horrible~

If you use Bonk! you can't do this:

I don't like any unlocks tbh...
Sandman was really a bad concept imo, being able to stun people without them being able to do anything was stupid, and now it's plainly useless. I actually find the bonk better. I can use it to distract a sentry while my demoman teammate stickies it from long distance, I can make noob demomen waste their sticky traps, and I can sneak behind enemy lines to kill of snipers and medics, then drink a bonk to make it safely back to a hp (or use it to get to the hp pack when I'm at low hp an on after-burn). And if you walk in a zigzag after it's done, you retain full running speed for the duration of the bonk slowdown.

The Bonk! had some benefits when it was released. My friend SexyTime used to know how to drink bonk, use a kill taunt, and move at the same time through some sort of glitch. Fuckin' hilarious because it was almost inescapable.

I'm pretty sure you still can. And yes bodzilla if you walk in a zigzag during bonk cooldown you go at full speed of a normal scout =P.

Lol.
Additionally. How do you guys play a game that they change twice a week?
One second it's everyone crying OVERPOWERED and the next it's nerfed to hell.

If something is overpowered and then gets nerfed to hell, everyone's all smug about it for a while and when the smugness wears off they're already used to the changes and its cool.
Also if they patched twice a week I would love valve so much.

Lol okay. How often do they patch it because when I start TF2 there is ALWAYS a new update or 2 to download.

play moar. The reason no one is really bothered by this is because no TF2 player worth their salt plays with scouts upgrades. vOv

They patch it every whenever. Checking the update news this works out as "sometimes up to 5 times a month"

I'm actually loving the new sandman...
I lose 15 hp but in turn whenever I hit an enemy they always lose 40-45 hp.
