Which is better, Overwatch or TF2?
>>
If we're talking about modern TF2, then Overwatch is better by miles.
>>
>>339440697

What do you mean "modern"? How has TF2 changed since it was released?
>>
>>339440172

Old TF2
>>
TF2. It won't die in a week like Overwatch.
>>
>>339440848
Hats (and market focus), new "wacky" weapons, and MvM shit. I don't consider maps or holiday events to be a problem overall. Not him, but quite a bit of stuff has changed to make the game less about completing objects, and turning it into a daycare for fucktards.
>>
tf2 is actually competitive, unlike overwatch which is basically a retarded version with terrible balance

>>339440848
>cosmetics that don't fit the theme of the game at all and alter silhouettes
>new weapons that are either useless or broken
>going f2p means the fanbase consists of retarded kids and 3rd worlders
>half the servers are trade servers or 24/7 dustbowl
>now fucking weapon skins
Man I wish Valve didn't do so many retarded shit to the game

I'm sorry, my man.

Ackshully, I played TF2 quite a lot on xbox 360 in 07 and 08. I remember being so jealous that PC gamers were getting all these cool new weapons and maps and "sandvich", while us console players were stuck with vanilla TF2. It looks like perhaps modding can ruin a game as much as improve it.
>>
Old TF2 is better, but nowadays OW is better.
Hell the reason people like OW is because its TF2 without the bullshit

Dude hats lmao
Dude trading lmao
Dude 24/7 Dustbowl lmao
Dude Mario_Kart lmao

They are very different games. Personally I still prefer TF2 but I've been playing it a very long time and am sick of it. I like Overwatch but not sure how long it's gonna last. Getting thrown together on a quick match is less appealing than a comfy 32 person TF2 server with regulars. Though Overwatch is better for a quick game on a lunch break.

I envy you. TF2 on consoles survived quite a bit longer than the PC version.

I'd play original (bought it on release) TF2 for hours on end without taking breaks, not so much for Overwatch, but Valve fucked TF2 to pieces so Overwatch wins.

All memes aside, TF2 slaughters Overwatch on both a gameplay aspect and art/design aspect

There's none of that if you find a good server

Fuck man, I can't believe it's almost been 10 years. I'll never forget how much fun TF2 was for me, and all the friends I made playing it.

TF2 was a great ride but started going downhill fast after it went free to play.

Overwatch against the "classic" TF2 is a tough call but against modern TF2 it's leagues better.

(Also I don't need to buy fucking keys to open me crates)

>>339440172
Has Valve gone on a DMCA spree over TF2 smut?

IF not, it's objectively superior.
>>
What will the "Overwatch will die in two weeks" people be saying when it's still popular in two years?

At most you'll get like one guy in the entire server trying to trade with people. And half the time he gets kicked anyway.

Would /v/ improve from having the r9k algorithm?

For newfags: A script that makes reposts almost impossible. Posting a duplicate reply does not work for all users for about 2 weeks. trying to do so gives you a short postban for about 5 minutes which increases the more unoriginal content you post. It basically forces OC.

How would this impact this board?
