If anything, sentries need to be NERFED. I played CP_Steel once. The red team was 2 engies and 2 pyros. They set up sentries on the last point, and we couldn't do ANYTHING.
I dislike the engineer class because it often results in the game not really moving for long periods of time, but he's far from overpowered. A couple coordinated ubers will defeat any sentry farm if the rest of the team doesn't do anything to stop it. If the rest of the team does do something and manages to push you back and rebuild, they just outplayed you.
If something needs MULTIPLE Ubers to take down, it's over powered. Ubers are meant to be bonuses for a medic that's doing well. The strategy shouldn't count on standing in a spawn for twenty seconds while you build, because if you go out you'll get killed.
Not necessarily. If it's near useless for offense, takes a long period of time (for a game) to make, and has several counters built into the game, it's not. They have to be strong because once they go down, since the rest of the team is gonna swoop in and there's no way in hell you're gonna be rebuilding unless the rest of your team pushes them back. In other words, he relies on his teammates to be effective, which is exactly what Valve wanted when they designed it, hence the game's name.
Ok then, i really don't know what youre complaining about.
A SINGLE ubercharge on a (competent) Demoman destroys Sentry+Engi+Dispenser.
Activate, go in, shoot 4-6 Stickies into the sentry nest -> KA-BOOOOOM!
I Dont Know what you are doing when playing TEAMfortress2, but this is how it works if there really is teamwork (democharge, destroy sentry, rest of team start to push)
An engineer with nothing else to help is actually kinda weak. First of all it takes alot of time to set up. Second of all, all it takes to take out a sentry nest (or two) is an uber demo. If the engie isn't paying attention a soldier can take it out by himself. In fact, as long as the people know what they're doing (unless the engie is set up in a nice spot) an uber usually spells death for a sentry.
You open your steam games list... then you rightclick on tf2, choose "properties", then choose "set launch options", and then you type in "-console" without the ""
I've done similar stuff to your video and it does prove a formidable defence but demo men will always have their way.....and ubered pyros start becoming a pain especially for easy to access sg's
in a match this would be completely useless, they will be using ubers constantly, unless youve got a load of pyros airblasting them away and 'soviet blocking them' every time the wall is coming down.
This can be a good sentry placement in certain circumtances, but as a soldier i will tell you, all those sentries you placed are easily removed with a couple of well aimed rockets, even is you are tanking it.
thank you :) I know the vid is old now :P made it right after the patch, and now they have patched the map, so the tactic is kind of useless, but something is usefull
In public play its hard to do, but i myself found a great setup for just 2 engys on this level, Personly though if yoru gettin steamrolled stage 2 is alot easier to defend, getting 2 sentries in at both windows has the enemy exits covered, its just up to your team to do the rest :D
The main thing I have to say about this video is... If you can get your whole team to do something specific, you'll win, whatever this specefic thing is. But that never happen. 50% of the team are always retarded, and the other 50% does all the job. In some games, it can either be 25% of the team that does all the job. ( you know, when the score looks like 300-250-225-200-20-10-5-2-1-1-0-0... ).
It's a good tactic but only for public play.. unfortunately all the leagues have engineer class limits (max 2 normally).. I do like the sentry at the top of those stairs though :)
Jeesus!!! I tried these tactic with my mates and we kept on raping Blu. All they could do was wish for crits and event he ubers couldn't get through because they got pushed back by so many sentry shots. The occasional spy would sap our sentry but nothing like a few blasts from ur shotty.
Thanks mate, I think this tactic is better to use as a clan, don't think people on puplic could cordinate such thing, unless all of them have seen the video. Did you have any Demoman, soldiers etc... Killing or phusing BLU team back?

Good tactic how to defend that place, but couple of things;
1. Fix your grammar. It's pretty horrible.
2. Nobody else from your team is going to do this.

If you can set this up, tho, it can works...
But still, a few ubers and it's gone.

But 2 are noobs/noobies

and the last guy is your avrege player?
This nomarly happens with me. And even in my clan we have 2 dumbarses

Bullshit. The main height is the first floor, so it should be 2 sentries there. If it's not taken, the point can't ba taken too.
