WAAAAH WAAAH ITS NOT FAIIRR
>>345187889
As far as I'm concerned it is.
It's as dead as WoW.
The population might be there, but the game is now shit due to these terrible updates.
I kind of wish they let the game officially die.
>>345187931
TF2 is still going, im definetly not gonna stop playing it.
as predicted, nobody talks about tf2 anymore, even after the update
the whole upbeat about it was just contrarianfags shilling tf2 in ow threads and doing their best to just "fight the ow invasion on /v/"
they failed pretty hard since tf2 is a shitgame, no matter how hard they shilled it
>>345188087
How is it shit? As far as it goes for me, its still the same game, Valve just needs to put fucktons more care into it to make it on par with CSGO and Dota 2.
>>345187889
>implying the last remnants of TF2's community isn't bronies, 'friendly hoovy' autists, and merchant jews
>>345188157
It is definetly on a downhill slope, but I dont think its plummeting too hard.
>>345188204
That is a large majority, sadly.
>>345188157
Oh no what's this? Not even muh new hero can save Overwatch from falling into obscurity? I thought it was the TF2 killer?
>>345188204
>bronies, friendly hoovy, autists, and merchant jews
>>345188389
why do ow players shit up tf2 threads
i just wanna talk about tf2
please
Just give me the Pyro changes so I can go back to playing for a couple days and then not.
I hardly care in the least, but I'm playing because I'm still mad about Meet The Pyro's lack of weapons and have decided I want this.
>>345188389
Oh no, Blizzard still hasn't released public player numbers and counts internet cafes as copies sold! TF2 killer am I right?
>>345188631
I feel you my negro
>>345188631
Because it'sfun
>>345188665
Oh no...
Oh NO...
>>345188846
so is tf2 you piece of doo doo
>>345188389
>Numbers represent search interest relative to the highest point on the chart. If at most 10% of searches for the given region and time frame were for "pizza," we'd consider this 100. This doesn't convey absolute search volume.
Hmm.
>>345188878
>>345188905
unless the highest point had unpredictable and irregular changes in magnitude the relative interest should still follow a trend you mong
>>345188895I just enjoy riling up TF2 and OW fags desu familia
>>345187575
Balance changes were overall good if a bit modest. The implementation of casual matchmaking was pants on retarded though, also matchmaking straight up didn't work for several hours after the update dropped. Adding several mouseclicks to get into a game that I didn't have to do before in order to corral the noobs into herping their way into a server is pretty grating. Give me a button to just immediately open the server browser dammit.
>>345189113
you're doing a good job
>triggered
>>345188905
The moment you type anything on youtube, you get your frontpage spammed with related videos, makes searching kind of redundant and there isn't that much to watch about Overwatch unlike le funny tf2 gmod videos.
>Natascha is now shit
>Quick Fix is now shit
It's all over lads
>>345189138
They KINDA fixed up casual in the last update, but I feel like Comp is just a bit too hard to get into, versus how easy it is to get into a game of comp csgo.
>>345189007
You phrased it wrong. You probably meant to say in the case that the highest point is a result of unpredictable or irregular changes. But check this out.
>>345189181
>natascha is now shit

you're late

oh shit here come dat boiiiiii
>>345189181
>relying on crutches
>not enjoying the massive buff they gave to every other medigun
>>345187575
Not enough changes to make me reinstall. I thought they were completely remaking classes and maybe adding new weapons. All they did were slight changes here and there.
t.2500 hours comp player
>>345187575
matchmaking is complete shit.
You either stomp or get stomped, there is no middle ground and always ALWAYS someone leaves when you are winning and you don't get shit
I can't wait for ranks to balance out.
>literally just had a game with Fresh Meats up against Death Merchant's
shit is actually fucking retarded
>>345189229
that's basically what i said

So, there's no backfilling?
>>345189331
Is this true?because it sounds like overwatch ranked
>>345189181
>Not using stock minigun
>Not using stock medigun
You are shit
>>345189321
We're getting new weapons soon hype
hold in there
once they make it so leavers don't invalidate the match it'll be fine
>>345189331
Thats how every game of tf2 is usually, only once in a blue moon do you get a balanced match desu.
Still love it though.
>>345189462
Didn't they already do that? They just released an update this morning.
>Fixed a case where players would sometimes not receive experience (when playing a match to completion)
>>345188204
>tfw no brony bf
Is there ANY reason to use stock anymore after this got buffed?
>>345189376
>>345189409
>Not fucking up scouts with Natascha
>Not making rocket jumping soldiers miss their landings through being slowed
>Not realising Natascha still does crazy good damage because it's a minigun
>>345189526
afaik in competitive when a player leaves he loses rank, but everybody else (win or lose) gets nothing
so if you're winning and some jackass on the other team rage quits you get nothing
>>345189682
Tomislav is the best minigun now you dumby
The weakness of the minigun is that its innaccurate, tomislav fixes that. Its 2016, silly.
>>345189663
I dont like it, rollers help me alot, they just feel like weird stickies to me.
>>345189682
>Not just doing all 3 of these with stock or tomislav without the damage penalty
ded gaem?
ded gaem
>>345189829
>Tomislav
.>Good after 2011
>>345189883
But you get the benefit of bigger pills and precision area denial. Rollers are great for catching retreating enemies but won't really scare an enemy off a point.
>>345189948
At least I dont fuck up my greentexts kek
>>345189961
Yea but does they have skins doe????????
>>345189829
I wouldn't say best, it's tied with stock and depends on the map. Stock is great for ripping through groups of players and tomislav is great for long range harassment.
>>345190012
It's late here, I'm tired.
>>345190069
>using viewmodels
>current year
>>345190127
True
>>345190171
Well valve made it fucking mandatory now so you might as well be looking at something pretty while communist valve makes you look at a grenade launcher barely on your screen
>>345190292
>mandatory
only in comp, casual you can still play with them off.
min mode 54 fov viewmodels are disgusting and I will never use that shit.
>>345190343
Yeah I know, Ive played too much comp now though, and I just use high ass fov outside of comp, so I care about skins
>>345188204
I was last on TF2 like 3 months ago.
You're absolutely right.

>go to play competitive matchmaking
>can't because it's $10 despite owning the game
It was already obvious that the game was dead but it should have improved something. This update is just the final nail in the coffin. All that's left now are the shitheads who don't bother to learn the game in Casual and the drones that you know suck Valve's dick mercilessly because to even be in Competitive they had to willing fork over even more personal information or ten dollary doos.
I don't like that you have to buy into competitive even if you paid for the game. I like the matchmaking more or less but I don't like that they took away quick play. But that's pretty much it. To be frank, this update kinda got me back into the game after like 3 years of not touching it and I'm having a blast.
What loadouts are good these days? I usually play scout when I can and Stock scout is always good but aside from that I have no idea what to use on other classes when I have to pick them. Don't even have that many weapons. Are any of the starter packs worth getting?
>>345193093
>starter pack
No.
A key is worth 20 refined which you can trade for pretty much all weapons in the game.
>""""BALANCES""""
scout and pyro are still loose, mming worse than csgo
valve taking some lessons out of blizzards playbook
loved the game, still kind of like it tried a bit of overwatch after many many failed competitive teams, not touching it until they fix 20 tick and many other balance issues and pull ana out of the ptr
t. 5800 hours fucking wasted
>>345193385
>scout
pyro maybe, but fucking scout? the only good counters to him are pyro and heavy, projectiles arent even a problem unless in tight areas when otherwise you could just dodge everything
>>345193385
Scout is the second best class in the game
Casual Matchmaking was a mistake.
They should've kept Quickplay as an option.
>>345193664
6 80-100 damage meatshots and a double jump with the fastest speed in the game?
i get that its his thing but when you have difficulties hitting the little fuckers even as soldier it starts to weight down on you
demo is countered pretty hard by him, and having 2k hours as demo starts to build a little bit of a bias against the two shot solution which i have endured countless times
>inb4 BUT STICKIES LMAO
not against those speedy little shits
unless you have crits you are literally basing your survival on your roamer/aggressive scout
i had 3 or 4 teams that i slung into a rucksack and carried through iron to steel then they disbanded
tldr ideas for comp
fuck casual
>>345194183
i thought you were saying they were weak like pyro
>he still plays TF2
>he is a valvecuck
>he waits for the brony pyro update like a good goy
>Pyro will still be shit in 6s
LOL
>>345193865
scout's the best now that demo's been rebalan-
>quickiebomb launcher can now be used defensively
nvm he still 2nd best
>>345194724
>6s
what does this mean?
>>345194724
>he says LOL
summer lovin'
>>345194884
6s is a gamemode for competitive TF2, basically medic + soldier + demo + 2 scouts + offclass
>>345187889
47 thousand people using it to chat and ban if you try to play.
>>345194984
Zero fucking content in your post, why respond?
>>345193093
Which class are we talking about here? There are loadouts for each class that are the most reliable but you'll still need to switch weapons occasionally.
I don't like matchmaking.
Every time I give a reason why people tell me I'm not allowed to dislike matchmaking for that reason.
But I still dislike matchmaking.

I don't think FPS games were meant to be eternal, it's kind of impressive even that they still have the amount of people they do almost 10 years later.
>>345196665
>I don't think FPS games were meant to be eternal
I beg to differ.
>>345190343
>view models have to be visible in comp
For what fuck purpose?
>>345188173
>How is it shit?
>>345187575
What is best set for solider
>>345187575
Gameplay wise everything's pretty neat. Stuff like the teleporter costs 50 metal makes me happy. I'm also glad that they removed the whole "finishing the game early because one team captured 1 point above the other team" fiasco. Shit killed the mood.
Outside of it, they've been improving since release but they need to adjust and add some things. It can be frustrating when you join a server from another country and end up having a high ping. It also sucks when the game ends up 4vs12 later on and for some reason, the auto-balance didn't occur. Aside from that, matchmaking time has been improve.Still wish that pubs are still up though.
>>345190343
>min mode 54 fov viewmodels are disgusting
Ok.
I'm retarded. Go ahead.
Explain why. Use small words because I'm retarded.Just kidding, I'm just polish. So you'll just have to type slowly.
>>345197673
>auto-balance didn't occur
There is no auto balance in matchmaking.
>>345188457
Literally enter any server
>>345198238
That's strange. I thought I saw it occur even once. But then again, maybe it was just a message that a player just joined the server and was automatically assigned to a random team.
>>345188631
because tf2 players have done the same to any overwatch thread since the game was first announced
>>345198869
The latter.
>>345198958
Oh. Thanks for the clarification then.
>hoped tf2 would get back into relevance with the update
>it fucks up horribly
>give in and get overwatch
>mfw i'm having a blast with it
/v/ always gets upset about the pub experience in tf2, talking about Natasha's screwing up scouts
I just wish more of them knew about comp tf2, this game is under appreciated
>>345199369
My complaints with tf2 would not be fixed with overwatch.
They'd be made worse.
>>345197673
I agree with this guy. I want autobalance in casual and also I want an auto fill thing where it connects players to on-going games that people disconnect out of early on or if it's pretty even.
>>345199687
>I want an auto fill thing where it connects players to on-going games that people disconnect out of
Ideally, it's supposed to.
>play 2 comp games
>win one, lose one
>only the loss is recorded
Thanks valve
>>345199682
What are they anyways? To be quite honest with you i haven't played tf2 in like 2 years or more and i hoped the new update would be an excuse to hog up 18 gigs of hats on my pc again, but didn't bother since it seems to have shit tons of issues.
>>345199728
Well that's fucking news to me! I've played a fuckton of games and haven't seen this happen a single fucking time. What the fuck Valve?! Almost half of the casual games I play end in 4v10 or something like that.
>>345199896
>What are they anyways?
Matchmaking.
>>345200308
Well it's not a problem in overwatch, i find games extra quick.
If we're talking about quality of players though, i usually end up in a game with a team full of shitters and the other one with a team full of slightly better shitters and a guy or two who really know what they're doing.
And you just gotta hope to be the slightly better shitter paired up with someone who knows what it's doing.
>>345200474
My complaints with matchmaking really run the gamut and most people would probably say I'm just bitching, and maybe I am, but, I'm a fossil and I prefer doing things the old fashioned way.
Just finished a game and lost of KOTH_Nucleus.
6 BLU (us) vs 11 redStill scored highest with 1 kill shy of highest but that was besides the point.
>>345187575
It's nice but when you're winning and somebody on the other team leave the whole match doesn't count, nomatter if they leave 2min in or 10sec before your win.
Other than that, it's great, i like the casual mode more, the comp is a little icky with matching you up witg people.
Too often am ranked against a lower skilled team and rekt them but it also happens the other way around and cheaters are still a thing.
>>345193093
You can play comp with a pre-f2p copy of the game
>maps are back
Thank god
