The biggest reason I dont play tons of Scout is Sentry Guns. They are annoying. If there is a Sentry Up, and you cant get around it, your screwd. For examply, Dustbowl Stage 3 Pt.2 Can a BLU Scout do anything? How could Valve help this?

Here's my idea

Pistol Replacement-Sentry Vest

Reduces setnry damage by 50%, with greater pushback

The Scout would have a chance of surving the guns, but couldn't actually take them down
(high Pushback would keep them at a disance, added to not having a pistol)
What do you guys think? Any ideas yourself?

Its an okay idea...

but if you want to get around a sentry, having an upgrade with a greater pushback from sentries doesn't really help much...i can see how reciving 50% less damage would be useful, but if a sentry is placed strategically by a corner you could get pushed back as soon as you try to turn that corner.

i dont know if that makes any sense...im tired, plus i dont usually go near sentries when Im a scout.

Scouts aren't supposted to do anything near Sentries but die.

Meh, i personally just don't think that scout has any place at the final point of dustbowl, but i hate that level, its always FULL of engy's, and its way way way to cramped.

I would prefer (instead of that) as an addon to the bat, they throw a baseball that the turret fires opon for a few seconds. It would also hurt a little bit. But there are only 3. The sentry gets distracted, the scout can get past a sentry (and maybe a few freinds can aswell), and most importantly the scout keeps his pistol. I just relized what a stupid post this is

actually, its not that bad an idea...it would give the scout a more ranged weapon, which he doesnt really have right now.

since the pyro--which is an ambush class--got a ranged weapon, this isnt such a bad idea for an upgrade...

(and, personally, i think that the biggest reason the upgrades take so long to come out is deciding on the final name. It can't be that hard to figure out what the upgrade will do...but those names seem like they would take a lot of thought.)

Maybe the baseball bat will b changed to a wooden 1. it would do more dmg, like 40-50, but it swings slower.
