But I fear it's another nail in the Heavy's coffin though. 80% faster firing speed. Ouch.

There was actually an interesting comment on the steam forums about something the soldier says in the comic - "I'm gonna shove my boot so far up your ass it's going to appear on the news." and how it could relate to the boot on the paper. Anyways, with this little knowledge theories will crop up like weeds.

That would not be hard to model, but the crates, as they are, have a huge lot of polygons for how big they are, and compared to other crate models.
thank god for tr_walkway. Airshots away!

Here's a nice little paranoid idea.
In the comics, they mention that the unlocks will be given as part of the progression towards Soldier/Demoman eliminating the other. And the war has "begun".
Do you suppose Valve is already secretly tracking stats for achievements, and everyone who has been playing Soldier/Demo will thus have a head-start on the weapons? Hmm!

How do you know it is 3 maps? Are some of your maps being officialized?....:O
edit: Also, I see a surprise engy update being fairly likely, for two reasons:
-If there is no engy update with the soldier and demo, engy will be screwed. Demo is a sentry counter, and the direct hit seems perfect for sentry destroying
-Valve is smart enough to not have a lone engy update. That would be turtling hell

So far all the unlocks look good but they need a few minor adjustments.
The Direct Hit: Should only hold 2 rocket at a time so people can't just unload 4 rockets up a heavies umm gloves. That provides enough to juggle someone up and then blast them but not so much that you can kill everything in a snap of your fingers.
The Chargin Targe: A 75% resistance to knockback should be added so you can basically run past sentries. That makes up for not having the stickybomb launcher to take them out.
The Eyelander: The health lost better be something like -50 to keep it from being a straight upgrade.

Direct hit, yeah 2 rockets is a good idea, not.
We should take away 2 demoman pipes too because they can kill heavies in one clip, oh and the scout needs only 4 shots because he can take out fully overhealed heavies in one clip, oh and headshots should only do 449 damage so they cant kill overhealed heavies in one shot.
spy knife needs a nerd too. i mean 1shot kills? really.
Giving the demoman bonk is the worst idea ive ever heard, youre not meant to take out guns with your sword and shield but you can still use your pipes.
and -25 is a huge downside. I wish theyd slow the swing and leave the health tbh

It says you run faster than a scout... so you might not be getting hit by the sentry to begin with. If you are, knockback resistance won't help you since the bullets will tear you up anyway.

My guess it will drop like with bonk.

Why should it?
You can sticky jump with the intel and that's sure to be much faster in a lot of situations.
Anything that takes ctf off the backs of scout makes it more interesting in my opinion

I'm pretty sure it's the travel speed of the rocket that is faster, not the rate-of-fire.
