Excellent post!
I will go out there and say that I feel the jump pad is the only thing that makes the scout a viable option in AvD, as concs are not generally part of the mix.
I did not play TFC, so I have no idea how AvD is "supposed" to be played, but I enjoy speed, and when soldiers can use rox+nades to boost, demos can use pipes to boost, scouts and medics just get the finger as people fly by. At least thats how it feels.
Pads in AvD allow players to disperse from a spawn much more quickly, and avoid being killed in spawn spamfests (cp1-2), which aren't fun.
