| − | I was browsing the Polycount entries and noticed Ruskeydoo's entry didn't actually have this item it in. He made a cactus for the Heavy to eat. [http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73181 See here.] So did he make this? Or was it made by another contributor, or was it made by Valve?

| + | The fact it doesn't stack with crits or mini-crits may be intentional. This is due to the fact it used to mark you for death, and changing it to a vuln. was a buff, but if it did stack with mini-crits then the situations where someone has guaranteed mini-crits (example being the buff banner) then you would end up taking MORE damage than the previous version, making it not a direct buff.

| − | == Bugs are not bugs ==
| + | ::::From what I can tell, there is no universal way to code vulnerabilities and resistances. Sometimes a vuln is just a resistance with a negative value (the pain train), sometimes they scale with ramp up and fall off differently (battalion's backup), and sometimes they just don't happen (the steak), so saying the steak is an exception to some sort of established method seems misleading.

| − | "Attempting to drop the Steak Sandvich will drop a normal Sandvich instead. It functions in the same way as a normal dropped Sandvich." - Unless they intended for others to pick up the steak with all its given effects, having it drop a normal Sandvich would make more sense. The steak doesn't heal, and there would have to be some other system for determining when players would pick it up and when they'd just walk over it, since it wouldn't count as a normal health pack. (Of course, it could just happen that they'd get all effects when walking over it no matter what, but since a dropped Sandvich is far less effective than an eaten Sandvich, they might want to find some way to nerf a dropped steak.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | "The remarks that the Heavy makes after consuming a Buffalo Steak Sandvich are identical to those after consuming a [[Sandvich]]." - This seems likely to stay this way, as the same thing happens with the Demoman (referring to all melee weapons as his "[[bottle]] of scrumpy") and nothing has ever been done about it; for example, no new lines were added in those cases and I doubt they will for the steak. Plus, this isn't nearly as much of an issue of consistency, since according to the name the Steak is still technically a Sandvich. (However, this issue over the Sandvich lines ''does'' apply to the [[Dalokohs Bar]], and since that's ''not'' a Sandvich, it's a logical issue, but it can still be explained away by the Bottle Clause.)

| − | I'd suggest either finding an explanation or deleting them. —[[User:KarasuGamma|烏Γ]] ''<sup>([[User talk:KarasuGamma|kaw at me]])</sup>, 04:34, 14 January 2011 (UTC)''
| |
| − | | |
| − | : Your logic is flawed. Just because 'nothing has ever been done about it' does not make it any less significant. The purpose of the wiki is to inform players of relevant information pertaining to the game. If we follow your lead and bury our heads in the sand about these things, what good will come of it?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Lets say a player in game uses the Steak. After seeing that when he drops it it ''magically transforms'' into a bread sandwich, and that when eating it the Heavy exclaims it's made of bologna, the player will come to the wiki for answers. Currently, the wiki answers them with 'it's a bug/graphical error, it's not intentional, it will be fixed at some point.' And it's not just the wiki who believe this, but the Steam User Forums are littered with people noticing these 'bugs' and bringing them into the light. You, on the other hand, would answer these players with 'it's nothing, ignore it. Valve clearly intended it because it's been there forever'. Your answer does not give the whole picture, and only incites certain players to add it to the page anyway. So you accomplish nothing. --<span style="color:purple">'''''Focusknock'''''</span> 10:27, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | ::Did I ever mention anything about significance? No. I simply pointed out that Valve never did anything about the Demo's melee weapons using that line, and based on history I predicted they'd probably not do anything about the Steak. And I said that since it's called the Buffalo Steak '''''Sandvich''''', some of the Sandvich lines would actually be appropriate (for example, "Sandvich and me going to beat your ass", but NOT "Don't run! It's only ham!").
| |
| − | ::I also never said to ignore it, or that they "clearly intended it". I noted that they MIGHT have wanted it to work this way because it doesn't directly heal anyone, and it would work on a dynamic completely different from a health pack. I only suggested that having it turn into a normal Sandvich would possibly make more sense.

| |
| − | :::There is every possibility that Valve will rectify the Demoman's melee weapon lines, as well as the Dalokohs Bar and Steak lines. Until then they are graphical errors and, I feel, need to be notified. Whilst having them in trivia may be more suitable (especially as some people have very strict definitions of what is a bug), they would then be subject to the trivia guidelines, which clearly state anything 'obvious' must be removed. As such they are in a predicament if people start arguing whether they are bugs or not. --<span style="color:purple">'''''Focusknock'''''</span> 16:46, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

| |
| − | Are self-damage and environmental damage different though? Also Jarate deals no damage. The Gloves do. You can Jarate someone for them to retreat and take no damage.
| |
| − | Personally, I feel as if the GRU is a bit overpowered when there is a Medic on the team and the Heavy has the BSS too.
