Indeed, I am aware of Valve's Policy of Truth, but I'm not too
concerned with it since it mostly (if not solely?) applies to
Quickplay. Non-QP servers are a different story in that regard,
correct? As long as it does not interfere with that feature and the
players being sent to servers by it, I think it should be fine, or at
least, that was always my understanding of policy.

Basically modifying gameplay with such plugins goes against the
Valve's Policy of Truth but it's not enforced anymore as it used
to. Valve rather directs quickplay traffic by default to their
servers, leaving ours empty so it doesn't really matter anymore
what you run on a server.

Indeed. Voicing concerns over gameplay here is not likely to
garner a response from the tf2 dev team.
Though, I wonder in what way we (server owners) can affect the
changes on our end regarding the heavy? I know that there was
a hidden cvar (tf_stickydamage_ramp or something like that,
can't remember) for the demoman since projectiles = entities,
however there is no hidden cvar for heavy since his weapon is
hitscan and those do not generate entities, so its more or
less an attribute of the weapon I believe.
Is there a plugin that could potentially find/modify the
attribute of the weapon itself or just a way to figure out
where/what to change on our end to affect the ramp up for the
heavy?

It is extremely stupid that you
*can't* kill a pyro
that's taunting with four rockets at a
really really
close distance...
Then the pyro after finishing the
taunt turns around
and kills you with crits.
It's stupid how they gave uber charge
and critical
hits to a pyro weapon.

Sorry to taking the mailing list
further
offtopic, but the heavy nerf
didn't affect the
gameplay flow as much as the
demoman sticky
launcher one. The axtingusher nerf
is arguable
done to make it more intresting
sidegrade than
the upgrade it used to be
(somewhat similar to
the equalizer nerf they did awhile
back where
they split it into two weapons).
They are still intending to
rebalance the sticky
launcher, just not in a way that
probably
affects the gameplay flow as much.
There is
plenty of community discussion on
alternate ways
of doing this already anyway.
