I'm not sure what the protocol is for suggesting name changes, or if that sort of thing is even possible after an item has been officially released, but I think these should be renamed the Fists of Steel for Boxing or something similar, so that the acronym F.S.B. can be used, which is more in line with the K.G.B. and G.R.U. gloves. - [[User:Jjafargi|Jjafargi]] 21:05, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

:: But F.O.S. does not mean anything.  K.G.B. and G.R.U. were both government organizations in Soviet Russia.  Although, granted, the F.S.B. is post-Soviet era, so the name might not fit well with the established TF2 time frame. - [[User:Jjafargi|Jjafargi]] 18:43, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

::: That would be far too confusing for people, we use the name that is shown in-game for the item. If you wish to make a redirect, go ahead, but don't change the name of the item. --[[File:User Firestorm Flame.png]] [[User:Firestorm|<span style="text-shadow:orange 0px 0px 3px;"><font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}}</span> 18:52, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:::: Of course, I did not mean to randomly change the name of the article to something that does not exist in-game.  I mean it would be cool if the in-game name changed to something that would fit a Soviet acronym like the first two gloves.  But F.S.B. is too modern anyway, so I suppose the point is rather moot. - [[User:Jjafargi|Jjafargi]] 19:10, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
==We need to find something out==
 
By ranged attack is it meant bullets or just projectiles? [[User:Tryer|Tryer]] 04:10, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:It applies to just about everything that isnt melee, least in my experience with them. Fire dmg, explosive dmg, sentry dmg, etc. [[User:Mikau|Mikau]] 06:12, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
 
::I'm not sure if you are correct about that Mikau, but I'm happy to take your word for it as I do not have the item in question :). As such, I have left that section in the description and have only reworded it. Additional confirmation from multiple sources would be desirable for obvious reasons, however.

==Not quite "medieval"==
 
Hi there, the intro text reads: "They appear as a pair of large, medieval gauntlets that cover the Heavy's hands.". I just wanted to discuss the fact we could remove the "medieval" term here. What do you think of it? In fact, the model has not been created as a medieval weapon but as a robotic one, coming with the complete sound pack making technologic noises. Even if the sounds have been left out when officially released, the skin is still clearly not medieval at all with the dark rubber-like parts and screws. Not a big deal, but since it's all about participating here and as we have a nice place to discuss things like this, I thought I'd mention it. [[User:BadDog|BadDog]] 05:54, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:It originally stated robotic (see [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/index.php?title=Fists_of_Steel&diff=265928&oldid=265794 this edit]). I have no idea why it was changed. -- [[User:Netshroud|<span style="color:rgb(78, 71, 63); font-family:'TF2 Build', sans-serif;">Netshroud</span>]] [[File:Killicon_backstab.png|22px|link=User:Netshroud]] <small>([[User_talk:Netshroud|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Netshroud|contribs]])</small> 06:00, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
