Yeah. Good time last night. Timmuh, Smuckers and I played one map as engys defending the last point (Dustbowl? The small map with two points the first in a mining shack with a tractor next to it). Anyway Smuck and Timmuh set up their sentries covering one angle and I set mine up covering the entrance. We had three dispensers to go with our three guns.
Total domination. Spies occasionally sapped us but by midway through the map we were just swinging wrenches at anyone who moved. If they ever turned off FF spies would have to get nerfed because I woulda killed our guys 20 times.
They aren't totally dominating though. A team that concentrates on demo, soldiers, spies, and medics can handle them pretty easily. I tried the same tactic later on the same map and it didn't work out because the other team wised up and went heavy on soldiers. I'm getting pretty good at launching demo nades over objects and taking out sentries.
I don't think they need to nerf much at all right now aside from the occasional hole in their maps when people get stuck and can't move. The balance is remarkably good and the teams that do well have balanced groups. On offense one sniper, one engy (for teleporting), a couple medics and heavys, a spy, and a couple scouts/demo/soldiers works very well. On defense a sniper, a couple engies, medic/heavys and demomen work great. Whenever my team was on defense and went too heavy on engies or heavy/medics we got smoked but when we balanced out it was usually pretty effective.
Have you tried a pipe bomb jump with the demo man yet? You can blow yourself right up onto the sniper bay in 2fort and blast them
Not disagreeing with you. TFC classes were nerfed to all bits (scouts and pyros
