Yeah, I'd like to see new weapons too. In particular for Medic and Spy. The last time they got a new weapon was in 2012 (the Red Tape Recorder and the Vaccinator). And Engineer, Pyro or Heavy could do with something new too (Panic Attack was kinda shit).

>>
>>341879918
don't think they need a full rework, just minor buffs here and there to become useful classes. both are useful in pubs and passable in HL, it's 6v6 where they fall down because Sniper does Spy's job better and Pyro's only useful function is stalling ubers, buff them enough to circumvent those problems and you've fixed the issue

pyro's flamethrower mechanics themselves are pretty janky though, the way the cone works should either be made into hitscan or a jiggleboned object, rather than projectiles.

So we know this update has to be big since they deliberately avoided overwatch till hype went down

But..a few things can go wrong
-they don't add new weapons, maps, or game modes
This is the biggest thing if they don't get it will chop off the fucking playerbase, cause some of us like myself have been waiting forever
-balancing of weapons
Depends on whether they do it like the gunmettle update and actually change some weapons for the better, or completely balance things "so everything is equal"...i honestly thing the current competitive white list is on point right now, they know what is equal is a sense
-competitive
Pretty self explanatory...i myself who have 1000 hours dont want to play with people who have 50....enough said

The speed boost is only helpful if the enemies are bad shots,
The fact that it marks them even after putting it away means if you can pursue them, you are more than likely able to kill them in one shot

being released on console =/= being designed for console. hl2 was also released in the orange box on consoles but it's a pc shooter.

no tf2 updates have been released on 360 or ps3. the game is much more fast paced than it was at launch. being a console shooter isn't just a matter of being released on console. it's the feel and the systems of the game. overwatch was made for controllers and consoles.

>The speed boost is only helpful if the enemies are bad shots
You can use it to get around the map more quickly at any time, without having to worry about the enemy because you won't be facing the enemy on the way to the frontline. Most Soldiers rocket jump to get to the front lines of battle, Escape Plan allows you to run part of the way and get there without having to make further jumps, saving you health in the process.

Also, if your health is REALLY low (say, 2HP) then taking mini-crits won't make a difference, because nothing does less than 3 damage. You'll die anyway.

This is why Escape Plan is overpowered and needs to be nerfed. Its downside is meaningless compared to how good its upside is, so 40% of Soldiers use it in pubs, and 70% of all Soldiers in comp.

i played overwatch solidly for a week and then quickly dropped it and went back to tf2. even with all those classes tf2 offers much more varied gameplay and does a greater job of facilitating individual player skill rather than letting everyone win (play on no crit servers if crits are such an issue)

also tf2 has many more maps and gamemodes, and community servers running community maps is something that overwatch will never have. tf2 accommodates both tryhard servers and pub servers so depending on what mood you're in there's always something for you.

i cannot see myself going back to overwatch any time soon. meanwhile my 12 year old sister loves it, probably because blizzard wanted that audience.

This scares me. TF2 still shares a LOT of movement with Quake, same with pretty much all other Source games (unless they specifically remove things like bunnyhopping etc like they did with TF2).

Does that mean Source 2 won't have the same air control and movement 'feel' that I've been used to for twenty years?
>>
>>341885641
escape plan doesn't make good players underperform, so it's not a "crutch"

it's just flat out OP, which is why all Soldiers use it up to Invite level as the majority.

>and make up the lack of speed with skillful rocket jumping

Against an equally skilled Soldier, the one wielding Escape Plan will have an undeniable advantage in options over the guy wielding stock. He can get around certain sections where it's not feasible to rocket jump faster, and he can escape to a pack or medic faster on low health, and he can melee better.

Escape Plan is a buff which Soldier, one of the strongest classes in TF2, doesn't need, and it should be nerfed so that his power is kept in check class-balance wise and the other melees like Half-Zat get a chance at use.

Not him but there's also performance issues that stand in the way. Copypasting from reddit

>The best you can hope for is TF2 gets brought up to speed with the versions of Source that CS:GO and Portal 2 (and before S2 hybridization, Dota 2) use. Even that would go a long way. Take a look for yourself, CS:GO on a whole bunch of NVIDIA GPUs versus TF2 on that same bunch of NVIDIA GPUs at 2560x1600 under Linux.

>CS:GO only seems to be starting to hit walls with high-end Maxwell (900 series), whereas TF2 hits walls with midrange Kepler (600/700 series). These tests predate Pascal (AKA the 1070 and the 1080) so we don't have too much in terms of whether or not CS:GO is hitting walls other than the high-end Maxwell cards, but even if it is hitting one (which even a single 1080 test would confirm/deny), that wall is a lot higher than TF2.

collision hull for projectiles, fire particles, bumping into terrain, and melee attacks.

bulletbox for all hitscan attacks (and maybe splash? not sure).

every class shares the same sized collision hull as Heavy, so that there wouldn't be some small spaces which classes could squish into/bodyblock and others cannot.

TF2's bullet detection is very good, but the janky shit that happens with melee/fire/Huntsman arrows is a combination of individual player lag, the way fire particles work, projectiles NOT being lag compensated. Hitboxes is only a minor part of all the problems, really.

If Valve would just ban 300 ping huehue BRs from joining servers if they topped 300 ping, then a lot of these problems would disappear. I don't see why they have non-region-locked servers seeing as they have servers everywhere anyway.

Pistol, Revolver, Beggar's Bazooka and another thing I forgot remain random, though. And fall damage taken still has a hidden 20% random variance.

Anyway, everyone, ogle these custom maps
>>
the thing I've always wanted, but never plan to see, is an increase in self damage from explosives

I'd be fine with soldier getting a flat speed increase if they just removed the negligible self damage

yes it allows mobility, but it also makes point-blank range too powerful for soldier

removing sniper would be nice, again not going to happen

I'd like the mannpower mode to get some better balance, soldier and demo are again slightly too powerful, assuming they get the right runes, its boring for them to go for an entire game without dying due to runes

Id like for 'vulnerability' to be removed as an item characteristic

and yes I'd like my second favorite character, pyro, to gain better melee-range damage, at least surpassing other melee weapons

this is acceptable in TF2 because it's not a problem, as projectile weapons like syringe gun and huntsman are both terrible and you're gimping yourself if you use them

I have a question.

You know when you walk into a doorway and spot a Sniper aiming at you? You immediately back the way you came, right?

Well, does anyone else jump backwards while whipping their head down and behind them? And does this really accomplish dodging a headshot, or have snipers just plain missed where my head was beforehand...?

you just said that increasing self damage would be 'less skillful'

maybe you can't understand what you're saying at the moment, but I want you to just think about it today

"soldier mindlessly shoots at point blank range, properly takes 120 damage instead of ~50, other player wins the exchange

that is what it always should have been, rocket jumps are NOT something that should be done 3 times in a row followed by a kill for the soldier"

that does not in any way detract from single rocket jumps, juggles, or proper floor shots

if it cost Soldiers significantly more HP to rocket jump, they would just walk around normally more often instead of explosive jumping to conserve HP, hence, less skillful

on top of this, making rocket jumping cost more HP would give a bigger advantage to pockets over attackers. If health cost of a rocket jump was increased to 50, for example, that's a 10HP edge for the guy protecting his Medic with a shotgun on the ground. So this would make both sides more reluctant to attack at midfights

I used to be like you but I've since learned

yes, Demo and Soldier take little skill to be effective with (low skill floor), but they take a lot of skill to become extremely effective (high skill ceiling) and that is what f4ggy is, and what I'm talking about.

I'll show you a video of kaidus to help you get the gist of it. This is one of the best Demo players of all time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7jelqvvzxE

Any old retard can pick up the Grenade Launcher, hold down M1 and get some kills from splash damage, but it takes a really good player to get a midair pipe airshot while sticky-jumping and use said pipe to juggle an enemy player into a stickytrap.

demoman also has one of the trickiest jobs in 6v6 because your main counter, Scout, is fucking everywhere running around like a hyperactive twat.

Again, I agree Demo/Soldier take little skill to play, but they have a lot of room for a player to show skill,
>>
>>341891150
They balance for pubbers who have no idea how to play the game. In the wrong hands, the Flamethrower is the best weapon. You don't have to aim or reload or rev up or anything. Sure, W+M1 won't do shit against a team that knows what they're doing, but that's not who plays TF2 these days.
>>
>>341890617
I actually used Degreaser with a mix of the Shotgun (obv.fine), Flaregun (also fine), detonator (most fun, but garbage except on certain maps), and Scorch Shot (needs a buff as well). Always with the Powerjack, which is still the best melee thanks to the speed bonus for rollouts.
In lobbies I have to use the scorch shot just to do chip damage most of the time. People don't get caught by degreaser bullshit as often anymore and Pyro's job is basically to spycheck and m2 projectiles. It makes you appreciate the weakness of low range and average mobility.

I wouldn't change rocket jump health costs to 50, I would change it to 120

Im saying a complete correction to the idiotic way this class gains mobility needs to be finally implemented, not some trifling tweak to existing mechanics

why would anyone just take for granted that a class has air superiority over all others? why even play another class if you have the skill to use rocket jumps perfectly?

or are you claiming the soldier is not the main, backbone character of tf2, equally good at all roles?

Should there really be a main offense character, and two lesser flanking characters, and then a big pack of shitty defensive characters, one of which is actually very good on offense?

No, that's bad too. Would these alt-fire rockets come from the same clip? In which case you'd actually be buffing Soldier, and he doesn't need that either. Or would you have them come from a separate clip? If so, where are these invisible rockets coming from?

As you said, these things aren't going to happen. A much more reasonable course of action is to ask that Valve nerfs Soldier's overpowered weapon unlocks such as Beggar's Bazooka, Escape Plan, Disciplinary Action.

I hate cunty players too, but please don't bring this "toxic" "toxicity" meme to Team Fortress 2. Just call assholes assholes.

Jeffrey "Lyte" Lin, head of League of Legends' social systems team, popularized "toxic" as a vague term for "person in video games who hurts my feelings", and the last three games I've seen it catch on in (League, Archeage, and a KAG server) ended up with draconian moderation policies, banning anyone for any swear words at all like it was Club Penguin, or even for saying "gg" if it could be deemed sarcastic. I don't want to see that hugbox shit happen to TF2 as well.

Don't let Lyte's vague corporate buzzword spread. Just call rude people cunts. That avoids giving developers carte blanche to make their games kid-friendly from complaints they see.

>Pyro is a better Defense/Support character to be hotness.

I have been saying this for YEARS and you people just call me a shitter. By waiting around a corner or doorframe you will have the enemy come into your death range 90% of the time. I don't know why it's listed as offense when your weakness is people more than 5 feet away from you.

You can destroy a whole capture group by attacking them from behind for god's sake.
