first for MM is shite and the balance changes made more OP weapons instead of fixing the already OP ones

League of Legends

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING

>no quickplay removal
shit poll

tf2outpost.com/user/520609

>either heavy or pyro will be raped by the chucklefuck dev team
where were you when voting pyro was the right choice?

post what you've refunded

"i wasn't sure if the item was going to be tradable" -me
they were also cheaper on the community market

Did this fucking shitty ass system count a comp match where we had a player missing

Fuck

And I didn't even try playing so now that 0.8 KDR will be there FOREVER

>engi changes
>bad
Literally only buffs and bugfixes, it's the only thing no one can complain about

>no forced settings/fov
shit poll

>>either heavy or pyro will be raped by the chucklefuck dev team
Don't worry both of them are. The vote only determines who gets it first.

shit like this is why Overwatch is successful.

A big tf2 update, after 6 months of beta and almost 12 months of development, it doesn't fucking work.

I'm waiting over an hour for casual games.

I'm waiting 10 minutes for comp matches

and even then, sometimes the match doesn't count for some reason.


You know what happens when you hit "find comp match" in OW? you find a game within a minute. and then you go up a rank, or down a rank. It works, unlike tf2

>all mediguns now match the speed of faster targets
>quick-fix uber charging speed reduced
did they seriously think the fast uber was the OP thing about the quick-fix

+ 40 % Faster heals

pls no

your votes/points/whatevers don't even matter.

both are getting the update

one will get it first.

>transparent viewmodels work
>crosshair doesn't
fuck sake

I'm waiting like 2 minutes on average and I live in fucking Chile of all places.

That has been on since the MM beta, but yeah i should have added it
eitherway, as much as i hate it its relatively "minor"

>game still runs like dogshit

haha

You mean "you go 1% up in a rank because you landed in a koth/cp map and thenyou go down by 50% because you lost a match on payload" or "you get nothing because a person on the enemy team left"

that's cheating user. you need to use the same crosshairs and models as everyone else for fair play

Meet your Match is bad

Discuss

I agree that this is a bit of a clusterfuck, but to be fair it's a newly released update and when OW launched it wasn't exactly flawless.
Not saying this is ok, valve should have their shit figured out by now but things are always broken when they're new. It's inevitable.

forgot pic

I just want to paylaod and they're trying to force Highlander payload on me
Fuck that

slightly better dogshit, but dogshit
it should run better than before in every situation tho

Are you forgetting how every fucking one was making fun of Blizzard because no official servers worked for hours

Or how incredibly unbalanced it STILL is

it's 12v12 nigger same as a pub

well they never made any changes to the beta mm, so i wasn't expecting that it would work

but that it would work worse i didn't expect either (in beta mm you didn't have to wait that long)

The default viewmodels are fucking me up so much, I feel like I'm playing a console game.

The balance changes are overall positive.

min viewmodels are pretty ncie

it's not fucking rocket science, coding this shit.

You are assigned a number. The game matches you with others players who have numbers with similar value.

If you win, your number has +10 or some shit added to it. The people who lose, have -10.

TF2 for some reason, has everyone start at 0, so players who win against other players with 0 GAIN NOTHING.

let's say I have 20 points. And I win against someone with 0 points. The game doesn't want to reward me too much for beating someone lower than me, so it gives 1 point. We had this shit for 6 months in the beta, where the only way to move up was to play with your friends and keep getting +1 point. The difference is, blizzard fixed this shit in the beta

I get comp matches in 3~ minutes.
>This is why Overwatch is succesfful
No it's because blizz hyped it up, on launch OW was a clusterfuck as well. I guess it's just the cool thing to do now to hate on tf2, even after valve is starting to give two shits about comp haha :^)

It's shit because I'm used to use the viewmodel for aiming, I lose the crosshair way too easily with invisible viewmodels.

In spanish kek, thank god we dont have peruvians here like in dota 2 I speak spanish and i know that they are just the tipical internet trolls, spanish trolls

Agreed

Except for the Booties

in spain there are no trolls, they are mostly either dumb or toxic
t. spanish player

The 360 version is still gonna get the updates eventually, right?

Europ is (slightly) different from the filth that is South America.

Team Pyro!

Yeah!

>It's shit because I'm used to use the viewmodel for aiming
this is a bad thing

>want to vote team pyro because pyro is such a garbage, unfun class that it needs a complete rework
>also hate pyro mains and want to vote heavy

help

voting for pyro might make valve introduce changes that pyro mains hate.
Remember the shitstorm when the axtinquisher was nerfed? When degreaser was nerfed? Imagine what it would be like if the entire class mechanics were changed.
Although they're going to change both anyway so it doesn't really matter either way

sa masterrace
pelotudo

>queue up for ow quick match
>go away for just a minute to mix protein shake
>in the meantime it found a match
>i got dropped due to inactivity

medium kek

why am i so fucking shit at matchmaking im 0-2 right now

>win game
>but not really nope ahah
this is LITERALLY just casual matchmaking
why even have casual then?

10/10, user. I have seen mods for the console versions. Although they were very badly done.

>Win a round
>Score doesn't change
>Lose a round
>Score goes up
???

theres literally a mode just for you

why do all this shitters join competitive anyway and why are the worst of them always on med
i got about 2 buffs in the 4 rounds i played

I can't aim so im a med main
anyway, the sooner they learn med the better, just mentor them a bit without being rude to them

im getting into matches quicker now

comp is actually pretty fun

>win 3 times in a row
>those 3 times had a late ragequitter
>counts as 0 wins

>lose for the first time
>no one leaves
XDDD
GRAT ONE

what if tf2g queued together :O

>>no one leaves
then why dont you leave

memes

we do you're just not invited

>on launch OW was a clusterfuck

No? It was a pretty smooth launch that was delayed like 10 minutes past when they said the servers would be up.

>valve cares about comp!!
>no class limits

yeah okay. Not like literally every iteration of TF2 comp has had class limits, valve sure is paying attention.

Deadest game lmao

I remember back before they patched out the console command exploits, people could use it to rebuild levels. I used to join one guy's games who'd build whole new game modes out of maps like Well. Some people were surprisingly creative for how limited it was.

Servers were down for more than 10 mins, but why am I arguing with some blizz shill anyways? Go play your casuallized team shooter, don't want you to get overwhelmed with needing to actually have dm skill and more than one weapon.

...

>go play your casualized team shooter

so go play TF2?

>TF2 got a Competitive mode
>been wanting to try it again
>load it up, get the Scout Starter Pack since I like some of the non-defaults
>Queue Simulator 2016: Now with HATS!
How long is it usually for Fresh Meat?

>Go play your casuallized team shooter
I'm trying but valve isn't letting me play TF2

>comp is just pub players with 6v6 and stopwatch

I'm not sure why I expected any different. I asked our other soldier if he was gonna be roaming or pocketing, and - in a child's voice, no less - said, "I don't know what that is."

have 3k hours in TF2

people can probably rightfully hate on it when valve clearly stopped giving a shit a long time ago. Competitive is a fucking joke and the balance changes look like they threw fucking darts at the wall to see what sticks (give the shortstop a knockback and make the vaccinator even more shit for whatever reason)

Competitive matchmaking was teased for fucking Y E A R S and this is what was shipped.

but you dont even know him

some people, I swear

dont censor or dont post
pussy

>caring about identity on an anonymous forum
lol

But user you just need to rank up and then you'll be with good players :^)

nevermind ranking up seems to be completely fucking random at this point and if someone leaves you can get fucked

yeah maybe it was like 40-50 minutes after the weeks long announced exact date and time it would release
after that everything was like you'd expect it to be

whereas in tf2
everything
is
a
mystery
even after day 2 was out i waited until 3 am to play a WAITING game

and don't say tf2 is free
time is money

tf2g is a chatroom

ok i had two shitty games in a row

what's the punishment for that in competitive?

i don't play games with match-making, tf2 is my first one

Ya, I saw a 2fort map that had a bridge from each snipers nest. I also saw a custom game mode once or twice. Got to give them credit for what they did.

>caring about identity on mongolian ice sculpture mailing list

>so user, do you like our new update for tf2? :D

>anonymous chatrooms don't exist
lol

HELP
how do i fix the big damage numbers script plz help i am blind

>Nothing is achieved here: The meeting room

who are you quoting

Fuck Huffington Post

WE HAD ONE PLAYER LESS
THE ENEMY TEAM WAS STANDARD 6S
AND IT STILL COUNTED
FUCK VALVE

where can i see min viewmodels and new sticky jumper and rocket jumper
i cant get to my desktop to play for a few more days

strawpoll.me/10698674

>4/7
youre just bad, dont blame valve

blame your team for not playing standard 6s or similar
hopefully they fix the "1 person leaving fuck up the match for everyone" problem

Same user, I think it's pretty fun too

I still get teamed up with shitters though occasionally who think it's a good idea to roll kunai Spy or fucking back scratcher Pyro, which means I'll then lose no matter how well I do.

i don't play games with match-making, tf2 is my first one

I'll be satisfied when they fix the servers

>WE HAD ONE PLAYER LESS

haha thats a big file name

i've read that, who cares
ive won 5v6 countless times in lobbies
get your shit together and never surrender

>wait 30 minutes
>several thousand empty servers, several thousand compatible players
>nothing
I give up

Pass Time is fun, but it's basically Beelining Scouts: the gamemode. And whenever you go Engie to try and slow them down everyone bitches that you're "ruining the game".

for you

>i've read that, who cares
the mm system should

>ive won 5v6 countless times in lobbies
good for you
