Soldiers were worse in TFC. Every clan match seemed to be about Medics and Soldiers, with the occasional Scout, or Demo/Engineer. The HW Guy is fine, though maybe the slow grenades need a tiny bit more oomph.

Pyro needs tweaking (less damage, more stopping power in my opinion).

Soldiers have been balanced quite a lot throughout FF's lifespan. Their splash damage is already quite small. I don't think there is really anything that can be done to them that isn't drastic. Numbers can be tweaked very slightly I guess.

But keep in mind Medic is actually extremely powerful. The super nailgun eats through SGs in a few seconds. Concs + Shotgun + Frag Grenades = DM powerhouse. You have to remember you're not the only one on offense, and FF isn't necessarily about completely destroying every person in front of you. Engaging a soldier in DM allows other offense to bypass him. Even if you die, he'll be low on health and easy for others to kill.
