The TF2's RED vs BLU 60s aesthetic is cooler than Overwatch's style.

Discuss.

>Right now we have a healthy and balanced meta due to the additional weapons.
You mean a meta where everyone can hard-counter everything with every class
The entire point of a class system is to encourage teamwork with a system of balances and counters, not call of duty build-a-loadout bullshit. All loadout-building does is allow players to minimize the inherent weaknesses of each class, somewhat defeating the purpose of playing as a class on a team.
Obviously some classes will always be good against others, but that's where we're heading.

>>344463398
Seeing how Pharah played in Overwatch was so disappointing. Hell Junkrat does a better job at flying around than her.

>>344463742
It is when it's hard to do and is considered a feature rather than a bug. Besides, jumps like that aren't very viable in most cases unless you have a medic. Otherwise you'll be at the point with 10 health left.

Yes, it looks different, the aesthetics changed to this wacky cartoons type. It's not necessary a bad thing, thought I can understand how some people can dislike it.

Hitbox forgiveness for different characters. It means that you can shoot this high with character X for the game to still register a hit.

I'm not even going to bother reading all of your posts. You are complaining about unlocks, 99% of which are INFINITELY inferior to stock.
Scout, Soldier, and Demoman are all at their best when using pure stock.

Heavy, Sniper, Pyro, and Spy are all at their best when using stock with one or two unlocks.

Engineer and Medic are the only classes that have multiple viable unlocks.

Just because you get shit on by the Huntsman and the Natasca doesn't mean they're good weapons.

I love overwatch but this is absolutely something to complain about. These hit boxes are retarded, even though I'm pretty sure the target dummies have the biggest hitboxes in the game the regular character and projectile hitboxes are far too big.

Characters can be hit behind cover if the hitboxes do not correspond to the character model, which is unfair.

TF2 threads have had occasional threads for years in /v/, with more appearing with every update.

The game is still going strong after nearly 9 years.

The only reason I don't play Overwatch is because it looks broken as fuck, catering to the lowest common denominator with a low skill ceiling.
>>
>>344465393
1. They make it seems unfair. If you see someone hitting air near you and still registering a hit, you are obviously going to be upset by it.
2. Large hitboxes cause inconsistent aiming. With smaller, more accurate hitboxes you are obviously going to target the body, but with large ones the player is just going to shoot anywhere near the character model. It is a bad habit.
3. Two points are enough.

It might as well be more popular on PC.
TF2 still has 2 million active platers. If what Blizzard was saying is true (OW has sold 10 mil copies across 3 platforms) then it's safe to assume that console players are at least 2/3 of the playerbase. You do also have to factor in the players that have just stopped playing the game. It is very much possible that TF2 is more popular on PC than OW.

Everything about a game, including the aesthetics, is important because it decides what kind of fanbase the game has.

Being suboptimal just for the sake of being different isn't fun.
TF2's selection of viable strategies is extremely shallow, it's just a game of pure mechanics to see who can execute the strategy the best.
Which is fine as a sport but far too repetitive to be enjoyable to play without real stakes, as the purpose of sports is to be a fair test of skill, not a source of enjoyment.

The only problem with modern TF2 other than the cancer community (which overwatch also has, if not worse) is that most of the fun gametype community servers are dead or on life support or at least the ones I used to play are. Also the game feels a little bloated with dozens of features and extra shit I don't even play like MvM (a distraction for about a month before I got tired of it) Mannpower (shit) etc. However the core game is still fun.
I feel like if TF2 wouln't have become so bloated, not even the amount of hats just the amount of extra weapons that serve absolutely no use or purpose even when putting tradeoffs into consideration it would still be fun for me. Overwatch is much more casual than TF2 however, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but makes every victory feel hollow. You jump in, play a 2 minute match and either stomp or get stomped and you can't even see your score at the end. To me that's just silly.
That's just my two cents though, your mileage may vary

I was probably one of the last defenders of modern TF2, and the new system was the straw that broke my camel's back. Literally the first game I joined had some dipshit on the other team using lmaobox with a pocket medic. That's nothing new, but now we can't spectate them to confirm it quickly OR votekick them off.

The first thing I did after closing the game was list my unusual for sale. My TF2 group disbanded earlier this year, so it's not like it took much to finish off my morale, but this was a curveball that hit me in the side of the head.
>>
Classic TF2 is obviously the best game.

Current TF2 is a fucking abortion visually, balance is hardly fantastic.

Overwatch is not awful - better than current TF2 - but it's probably headed bad places and it has a LOT of problems that Blizzard are unlikely to fix (hitboxes, overtime, etc)

But it's fun for a break from other vidya.

Literally any other opinion is wrong, driven only by contrarianism.

Meanwhile OW has no server browser. No ability to choose what mode you play. What map you play. Muh teamwork making it difficult for invidual to stand out.

Both the characters and the map locations just scream for muh diversity and then we have people telling that TF2 (current) has way worse look. Big fucking noncustomizable huds and weapons that block one third of your screen. Its high noon, I've got jews in my sight, let's break it down, behind you, I require assistance and the other hundred automated voicelines that fuck into your ear the whole game. Forced post-processing and vision blocking effects. Ultimates that you dont lose on death. No way to tell if enemy has ult. Game plays around ulti spam fights. Coinflip competitive mode. Wow raiders and Heartstone retards lecturing you to play while you get multiple golds. OW's 103 fov is for 4:3 and is equivalent of 70 fov when played in 16:9.

The point he was trying to make is:

If a developer decided to ruin their aesthetics like that (make every character model a naked gay man with a pony mask) by default, it would be a problem and would directly affect the game as a whole very much, as opposed to the argument that gameplay is all that matters and people complaining about ruined aesthetic have no valid point.

TF2 aesthetic and maps are better then Overwatch

Overwatch skins are better then TF2's mix and match cosmetics that manage to surpass Overwatch in nonsensicalness

TF2 2009 and so on is better then Overwatch now

Overwatch 2016 is better then TF2 2007.

I opened TF2 today, played a casual match and had fun.

I also opened Overwatch, played a match and had fun.

I don't know why there needs to be constant threads with everybody arguing over asinine bullshit.
