I agree with antibody on most counts. Except:

If you shoot and hit your "alternate weapon" button before the fire animation is through (attempting a combo), then the key presses seem to go into a queue, meaning that if you keep hitting your "alternate weapon" button you'll end up switching numerous times after the nex fire animation completes. I would rather it ignore any switch weapon keypresses while the fire animation is in progress (or until it reaches a certain point), but I'm not sure how possible this is.Hated nex stickiness, made it unusable for any fast situation. However, you can still camp without a problem, in fact, while amount of people camping with it won't change, amount of people fighting with it likely will.

I recommend delaying their explosion time a bit longer. Secondary mortar fire was also ineffective; they should be kept largely as-is.Stickies should be secondary, with primary reverted to the old way, if we go down this route. I miss the old way the mortar worked.

I was able to reach all areas of the map without problems and bounce LT. Bacon around with meLaser was crippled. Not enough push for too much health. I quickly realized this and decided that the small potential advantages were outweighed by the ridiculous amount of damage dealt for little use. I decided early on that the laser was unusable and I did not use it.
