What went wrong?
How would you fix it?
The game has 8 years, nothing went wrong.
It did well. Good times
>>322053362
Focus on maps, gameplay and weapons. Have cosmetics be the secondary thing.
Let it fucking die
Being a casual f2p FPS on PC and attracting the community that would play such a thing
>>322053362
It was addictive enough for people to play 1000 hours and it's been around enough for a lot of autists to reach that and get really tired of the game.

hats

engie and manco updated. once trading and going free happened it went to literal shit

Make it B2P again. Take away hats/microtransactions/non-default weapons.
Then it wont attract so many furfags, ponyfags & angsty teenagers.

>take away non-default weapons
Yeah everyone loves playing stock Pyro
Sidegrades are important for variety, just balance or remove the meme ones
1000+ hours here
>revert everything back to just before engi update
>keep hats, but only the ones that actually fit the artstyle and setting
>remove trading and mann-co store
so hats are actually rare
>keep the good balance changes that have happened up til now
Honestly nothing's really ruined TF2, it's just got steadily worse over time. I still often have fun on it, but it feels like a bloated shell of its former self
>>322053362
5 quadrillion cosmetics. There are easily three times as many hats, shirts, floating balloon animals, etc. than actual weapons.
>New update
>Degreaser nerfed to shit
>Phlog gets buffed damage and free uber
Jesus fucking christ

>Vanilla weapons + 1 other primary, 1 secondary, and 2 melee weapons (7 total)

More guns, less cosmetics
>>322057616
>reading comprehension
Keep good cosmetics that are consistent (or at least do not obnoxiously clash) with the game's artsyle, like those in that picture
Remove (or filter out) shitty meme cosmetics, like the one in this picture
>>322058046
wait people are still assblasted over that? top kek. you're a meme m8.
>>322058046
there's a magical mercenary meme?

retarded fool.
>>322053362
valve vanilla servers and nocrits and nospread in comp mode.

no conc jumps
>>322058046
Why would they remove the meme items? They make the most money.
>>322059215
>>322058046
this. internet jokes make good dough. valve put a lot of quality into the magical mercenary with the voice lines so it wasn't an afterthought.
It got boring.
I stopped enjoying it around the time of that Halloween event with the eyeball.
The Trade Update.
That was almost immediately the moment when to shit.
All of the cosmetics in the world before that and you couldn't do much besides either
>play
>idle
As soon as trading became a thing, the game stopped being about playing for fun and instead playing for items.

>How would you fix it?
>What went wrong
-Shitty unlocks
-Shitty maps
-Shitty community
-Shitty performance hits with every update
>How to fix.
Rollback the game to 2008
go back in time and shut off all the servers as soon as MLP came out. RIP. People would be mad but it would be for the best.
I'd change Gear Grinder's alternative botkiller reward to something that doesn't seem like a slap in the face.
Oh you toughed out some bullshit? Here, have a black lump dangling off your gun. Speaking of botkillers, I'd like the option to change the style of the robot head itself.
>>322060046
sadly this is poes law. I'm not sure if you're making fun of people who get assblasted over ponies are one. people will be mad. they'll always be mad because some people are like that. they look for excuses to be mad.
Weapons are too samey.
Call me when they add actually original weapons instead of generic Rocket Launcher #9856 or generic Minigun #1424.
>>322060046
like how alabama got so butthurt about gay marriage they tried to ban marriage completely and stumbled?
>>322054607
valve are getting more money milking which honestly isn't THAT bad. still miss free updates, now you need to buy passes.
Let it die and make TF3 with no cosmetics and just few unlockable weapons. Updates should force around new maps instead of weapons. Last but not least make it not free to play.
Keep BRs and other third worlders off US servers for fucks sake. These monkeys can't play worth a damn
Undo everything that happened after the Engineer update. The patches they've made are tolerable enough to keep though. A lot of shitty choices, but the actual good ones are like a god send. Keep some of the hats too, but not all thousand of them.
Vanilla TF2, 8 years worth of new maps and game modes.
>>322062094
vanilla tf2 was dogshit though.
>soldier and demo literally raping everything
>heavy, pyro, and engineer near worthless
