Re: Multiplayer Gaming
if ya cant solve something with an uber, you're doing something wrong in my book.
I agree there, but sometimes when you have only engineers, snipers, spies, and scouts on your team, you will see there is no good uber target. At least a kritz on any of these means they can at least get the job done. Might not be as good as an uber, but it charges faster, and every class has a use with it. A kritz heavy can be more dangerous then an uber heavy, since suddenly the minigun becomes effective at range.
But yeah, by default the uber is more useful for surviving and healing, which is the medics job, that's why it's the default medigun, and the kritz is the unlock.
Besides that, the banner is a mini-kritz, and the few times my team actually bothered to stay near me when I used it it was devastating, 2 heavies and a few soldiers all shooting minicrits? Better start running maggots!
