- Sentry bullet damage has been changed so it calculates damage based on the sentry's position, not the Engineer's

lmao this was ever a thing. So before this update, could you just run at people getting shot at by your gun to do more damage?

I think they actually buffed demos after doing tests, but someone should upload a video or something.

So wait, Demo stickies are doing MORE damage now? Or is it when fired they don't do as much damage as before for a limited time?

- All mini-guns now have damage and accuracy ramp up after they start firing. Full accuracy and damage is reached 1 second after firing.

This is the real game-killer.

RIP heavy.

Could this help break stalemates? You might think this helps heavies, but they got nerfed too. :^)

reillyNiko_JimsinsomCan someone explain the sticky change? Does it mean it does 30 dmg no matter how far you are now? Until the arm time passes?
The sticky bombs damage will initially start lower than normal and will go up to full damage potential only after 2 seconds of being launched.
Doesn't this mean long range stickys could potentially do more damage? I sticky in the air for two second would do more damage than immediately detting a sticky near someone?

In theory yes. In fact, mids will be where Demos are the strongest now because they will take less damage on rollout and the stickies will be at full strength/almost full strength.

Edit: Or not. Rip demos.
