The effect of the bug is that the HWGuy can fire his gun while walking at a normal speed. Really imba. Step by Step: 1. Spawn as a Heavy 2. Empty out your minigun ammo at the spawn point 3. Briefly let up on the fire button and re-click it (at this point you should see your gun in a down position, but you move at normal speed) 4. Switch to right-clicking so you won't waste ammo when you pick it up 5. Pick up  ammo from the spawn refill and mow people down 6. As long as you don't let up on the right click, you move at normal running speed, but can still fire I think this is really unfair, and I'm giving it attention not because i want you guys to use it, but to let Valve know. If everybody starts using this bug, it could ruin the whole game. This video should make it more clear... http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pr1OPy2eOkQ

Whhhhaaat!!!???!?! I think he means if a Medic ubercharges you and disconnects, you stay ubercharged. Not sure though...never seen it happen. I'm sure this speed thing will be fixed in the next update. I'm totally gonna try it though.
