wtf OP I needed that
>>136034810
I like that idea of heal rate being increased relative to proximity to the heal target, but I really don't like the idea of keeping the beam active while other weapons are out. Maybe if it was a new Medigun.
>>136030429
S18 is about over what would you like to see banned in s19 ?
>> scorch shot
>> phloh
>> back burner
>> booties/bootleg
>> Tomishit
>> iron bomber
>> all demo melee except stock
>> all demo shields
>> Scottish resistance
>> conch
>> dead ringer
>> gunboats
>> nerf sticks
>> black box
>>136035150
who cares just ban everything that isn't stock and ubersaw
I knocked out a toxic player in playoffs. :3
so the natascha is actually a good counter for demoman in 6s. Because GRU isn't banned on valve matchmaking, you can flank pretty fast and catch some demoes out. The damage they do is usually not enough to kill you, and you can then harass the enemy with your slowing bullets.
I see counters to heavy as mad milk and jarate. Usually a natascha heavy pub stomps in matchmaking, but because it's so broken, other unlocks are seeing play, like the direct hit.
>>136035265
>toxic

>>136034795
UM
>>136035325
>actually using natascha
just fucking kill him with the stock like seriously
if you need the slowdown to land all your shots you need to learn how to track
and if you need the resistance to live, you need to learn how to strafe and not run into shit that's going to cost you more than half your health
>>136035325
Really? When I play 6s as heavy the demo makes me go kablooie in seconds, I don't think increasing the time it takes to kill him would help with that.

>>136035510
stock doesn't do enough damage to kill people. Anyone smart knows to not get close anyway, the natascha slow benefits your whole team, as well as punish people for being out of position.
>if you need the slowdown to land all your shots you need to learn how to track
it's about catching people out who would normally be safe
>and if you need the resistance to live, you need to learn how to strafe and not run into shit that's going to cost you more than half your health
you're implying that a revved up heavy can actually dodge mid range rockets. good joke. There's a reason why natascha is banned, it's because it's ridiculously OP
>>136034795
>>136035775
fuck off moody
>>136034795
>>136035704
forgot to add: a fully buffed heavy with the natascha has effectively 562 health. Also, because the medigun heals full health, it heals 25% faster when healing a natascha heavy.
So you have a 562 health class with a 25% faster heal rate that slows people down and catches them out of position.
But go ahead, keep telling the pros that they're all noobs that just cant deal with the natascha
>>136035863
I'm someone else
>>136035704
except if you know how to track you can kill those people or force them out anyway
at midrange the soldier has to either
A) shoot directs that you can easily dodge
B)shoot the floor and get maybe 50 damage per rocket splash
while at the same time you are turning him into swiss cheese with almost 500 DPS
natascha isnt OP, its the definition of a crutch
makes a bad heavy able to aim while making a good heavy unable to react to incoming threats and having cripplingly low DPS
Stop running into heavies, alright scout main?
>>136036030
sure
i used to be angry at this avatarfag but i realized i will always be better at the game than him
>>136036009
I'll share
I fucking hate the fucking recent players list, it never has the fuckign person i want to fcuking add. FUck HEgSEH"L at least I can stab myself more
>>136036209hope your mouse isn't actually wireless if you seriously play heavy
>>136034795
>>136036424
ur husbando got rotated IDIOT
>>136036373
Whats so good about a wire
like you get maybe a millisecond better reaction time
It's like saying 60 fps is better than 59 fps and anyone with 59 fps shouldn't even bother
sure wired mouses are better but they just die after like a year or whatever but ive had this wireless fuck so long the labels have worn off and ive only changed the batteries twice
>>136036292
Try waiting a couple of minutes, then refreshing it. You do mean the "recently played with" tab on your friends list, right?
>>136036292
thats never worked for me, just wait and refresh it every bit
>>136034795
>>136036643
i've never had a good wireless mouse and never have heard a good story about them so maybe you got some good shit
generally for a good wireless mouse you can get a really nice mouse that's a lot better build
fps can be 60 or 30 and be okay as long as they are locked without any drops
>>136036994
well its a logitech, they make good shit
nothing can save me from this depression
what if instead of avatarfagging you put on a trip code
what if instead of a trip code you kill yourself
>>136037178
but there are people who know how to use filters
>>136034795
Does using such a cheap mouse legitimately make me worse at the game or is that just a meme?my original waifu ended up being a trap so I had to change
fuck you
>>136034795
>>136037375
delete it
>tfw nearly 600 hours in tf2 and haven't got a cosmetic drop yet
>>136037359
it depends on the mouse
>>136037242
there are also filters you can set for images but I'm not autistic enough to care, so I don't mind your avatarfaggotry
>>136037359
was it vivian
also as long as you get good DPI and all that fancy shit it really doesn't matter that much, having more side buttons for push to talk or whatever helps though
>>136037359
Whatevs, Vivian is still a cutie.
>>136037487
It's an m100, dpi is apparently 1000. Is that decent? I also don't play with a mousepad.
>>136037528
yeah

>>136038180
who cares about tf2 L:OL
What's he typing? The suspense is killing me.
Using the shotgun as Pyro and the Sniper's SMG is incredible
No one expects you to pull out the ol' 1-2-Dead when you're playing Pyro so no one seems to know how to react and the SMG is just devastating if you can land your shots
It seems to make a good bit of players panic when you can consistently hit them with your SMG, I guess because they notice their health just draining non-stop
God I love stock, sometimes
>>136034795
>>136038501
He does it to screw with us
>>136038518
The shotgun is one of the best weapons in the game. I really don't find myself using the SMG that much, usually when I'm in a situation where another weapon is required I pulled out my melee, though it is funny when they run out of melee range and you just SMG them down because they assume you don't have a secondary.
>>136038590
Why would anyone be so cruel?
>>136038720
It really is amazing how underestimated the shotgun is
People tend to rush Engi's a lot and it's always so easy to just pop 2-3 meatshots into them and watch the chat light up with anger
I suck at aiming, right now I constrain my mouse to about a 8 inch square and use relatively high sensitivity. Would lowering it and giving my mouse more space help?
I already have acceleration and stuff disabled.
>>136038501
>tfw no one ever has or ever will post anything relating to you.
:,(
>>136037467
Before hat drops ended (and then started back up), I went for a little more than a year inbetween hat drops. And I exhausted every single item drop in that time span.
>>136038906
Practice helps.
>>136038906
yeah probably
can you draw a circle better faster or slower
>>136038906
make sure raw input is on
moving your mouse halfway across your space should do a 180 turn ingame, adjust your sensitivity so you can do that
>>136038870
He's testing us
>>136038501
>>136039060
i'm not typing anything to anyone right now, it must be a bug
Step 1: Imagine the screen is your head
Step 2: Tell yourself to 'look' at the enemy with your head
Step 3: Realize that aiming at people is as easy as looking at things in real life is
>>136038906
>>136038590
oh i didnt reply to this one but i'm not doing it to screw with anyone its probably a bug
how do I get someone into tf2, or should I wait for overwatch. I think the second would be better.
>>136039706
Ask him if he'd be interested in playing a game or two with you.
*wakes up*
>>136039706
What do you want to play, TF2 or Overwatch? Pick one and play it with them.
>>136034795
I got a new mouse. but I don't feel like changing it.
>>136039790
ok, I might
>>136039871
I want to play TF2, but I dont want to introduce them to the cancerous communty with money grabbing devs. I mean maybe we can just play MvM together, I mean he does like coop games more then pvp.
>>136040193
Well, Overwatch isn't TF2. Play TF2 if you wanna play TF2.
>>136040267
I will still play it, im just considering if I should introduce him to it.
>>136040514
Well play two games then. Maybe show him Overwatch, cus it's newer and easier.
Late night Tf2 seems to be full of idiots.

it's depressing that the state of tf2g in modern day is posters like this, but overall it's preferable to literal gay circlejerking and furry erp

I would say to delete /vg/, but at this point the cancer has intensified to the point where deleting /vg/ would cause it to spill over into the other boards and threads, and in the end, they'll be begging Hiroshima to save them.

>Taking the video game discussion out of /v/ instead of just stepping the moderation game up
Forever and always moot's biggest mistake, though to be fair, the site was already on a steady downward slope, it just intensified after the split.
>>136045565
I'm more surprised that he did it three times, /vp/, /vg/, and /vr/.
You'd think he would've learned that it only takes discussion away from /v/.

>/v/ is just shitposting at this point
Believe me, I am well aware of that fact.
>>136045707
I guess at the time he figured /v/ was a lost cause. I remember we'd been asking for mods for the longest time, and when the moderators actually stepped in, there was this huge backlash against it, so he said fuck it, let the board rot. That's when everyone who actually wanted to discuss video games moved to /vg/.

>>136046986
With CnD, you tend to spend a lot of time just standing around waiting for your cloak to refill. It's fun if you have the duck journal or some sort of noisemaker, but not much otherwise. Stock and Dead Ringer outclass it in just about every way.
>>136047071
Check what people are actually buying for, right now the best you could get is probably 16.66 for keys. They were 19.66 a week ago. The price drop honestly isn't that much, but it'll probably go even lower.

I'm so tired of Razorback-wearing Unusual Snipers who never fucking miss a shot.

Thats not possible. People can always get better
>>136065718
That's why the Sniper Rifle needs a cap on its potential. Add inverse damage falloff, require more time for the Sniper to be scoped to be able to score 150 for a headshot, etc.
Quickscoping is a plague and it needs to have a stake driven through its heart.

I forgot Cactus Canyon, that map was actually pretty fun. I disliked the removal of stage 2 though.

It just needed a bit of tweaking and making a single choke a but wider but no they decided to remove it

Hey hey
Ho ho
Razorback has got to go
>>136066723
Not that guy, but I doubt razorback will be removed. Just give it an unattractive downside.

>tfw the autists who take this game too seriously and are just ungodly good make you consider using cheats just so you don't burst a bloodvessel after they pull off some bullshit Matrix-style shit for the Nth time

Nah, I know that.
I'd rather have it changed drastically. Remove the backstab protection, so Spy can actually counter Sniper now - but the flipside is that stabbing the Razorback causes the battery on it to explode, dealing 60 damage to the Spy and lighting him on fire.
Also I guess maybe a hidden attribute that prevents any "On Backstab" effects from completing if you do stab a Sniper wearing the Razorback.

I wouldn't even know how to find out.
