I fucking hate it

Casual takes longer to queue for than Competitive
It only takes one person abandoning to nullify the entire match for everyone
No one communicates/uses their mic
Game feels dead

Shit up kebab ali they are going to fix it.
Play community serversers or competitive meanwhile.

TF2 existed as the niche fps where you could freely switch between goofing and tryharding on the same server

tried it yesterday after not playing for awhile
>join a match from the "casual" tab
>after waiting for awhile join one for a min and it crashes
>can not join another match until that one finishes
ok maybe I can warm up a bit with bots since haven't played in awhile and maybe a little rusty
>wreck expert bots pretty easy
>lose one match only because I was dead and bot teammates are retarded
>last round I play the other team of bots cap 1st point
>make one attempt at second point
>nobody dead for a couple minutes
>think how strange
>go all the way to attacking bot's spawn
>they are all hiding in a corner jumping up and down
>they won't leave their spawn for the last 7 minutes left of the match
oh man this sure is a good update

>Playing Tf2 WITH FUCKING BOTS
Why would you ever do that? Might aswell try to find a decent community server. Heck, even wasting your time in a trade server against ACTUAL PLAYERS is better.

like I said joining a casual match was taking too long and I haven't played in forever I was just messing around. It was pretty funny tho, bot on my team building his sentry behind mine was lulzy

It might crash because of a custom hud. That's what I had happen.
Just go for the competitive mode. Who cares if you win or lose, as long as you give your best.

I don't use any mods for tf2
must be crappy laptop

I literally can't believe they removed valve servers.

Like, I could find games in my favourite map at literally any time of day. I would play that map for an hour and have a lot of fun. The sheer random nature of who would join meant that games always felt varied, even though I only played on that one map for weeks at a time, then I would start playing on another map for a while.

Like, this has to be the best way to kill your game. I still can't believe it.

Yes. Casual mode is a really good concept, it just needs to be improved.

>Add votekick
>Add teamchanging
>Ad-hoc connections
>Specific maps

Most of these points were already adressed by Valve.
