Hey guys, i was wondering in pub games (or friend games alike) which perks you see very rarely, just out of curiosity.

For me I rarely see Demos and Sharps.

Maybe it's just me and where I live, but for the past few days I haven't really seen many Support Specialists or Commandos. Some people (for better or worse) have been taking Firebug as a class and I still see a good number of people who play Sharpshooter and Berserker.

That's a riddle for me thou, when I see Demolition in my team, I don't see specimen at all.

On a serious note; I rarely see Sharps and Commandos. Both class need precise aim and pubs generally prefer dry humping Fleshpounds with AA12 bodyshots or tossing a screaming Siren around with Dwarf Axe primary swing.

Strange. Demos from the Quake school of aiming (shooting the ground near FP) are pretty common sight on pubs. Xbow sharps are less frequent (probably because the feeling of responsibility that comes with it), but also tend to be a menace, especially when you wanted to do some flinchlocks or uppercuts on scrakes.

From my experience, commando is the least played perk.

Well if there is an xbow sharp on the team you really don't need flinchlocks or uppercuts to begin with :/

Sharps are already overpowered as they're, it's more fun if they spare some Scrakes to the willing teammates rather than keeping everyone behind.
That's why I think they have way too much bolts to begin with and piercing dual pistols that hits harder than assault rifles are just extra.

Demo is feast or famine - you'll either have none or 2 (which is a bit annoying).

Agreed about not seeing many Mandos, in general.

When I played KF about year ago, there was Sharpshooter everywhere. Now I rarely see them, about once in 10 games when I play on Suicidal or HoE

I have seen these perks used most often:
- Pyro
- Firebug
- Flamemaniac
- Supporter (but less often than the Flamethrower-lovers)

I have seen these perks used least often:
- Demoman
- Sharpshooter
- Commando is quite rarely used too.

I think i see most perks fairly regularly. I think maybe Commando and Demolitions probably see the least play, though there is generally always 1 Demolitions come Wave 7, and often 2 for Patty.
