>Team cream
Fuck team cream they can go die. Putting idle accounts in their servers to seem more full than they are.

Pyro needs the rework far more than heavy does, so it's only proper. Hell, even the top pyro mains acknowledge that it's a fundamentally broken class.

I need more things to shitpost with I hardly have any

furries own tf2g

i just lost 3-0 and got like 10000 xp???

this
i chose pyro and i hate pyro mains more than anyone else on this thread or planet

I wonder if they'll actually make him a viable class instead of the weakest like he's always been

Just because you can shitpost with furry porn, it doesn't mean you should.

Anyone else having trouble getting captcha to work in Clover?

It's just me, isn't or

Spy is an even weaker class than pyro, but I think he'd be even harder to rework without making him a completely different class.

I think the main reason that heavy even has so many votes is that hating pyro has become a meme, and people don't actually know why they're hating pyro.

i just got matched to a brazil server, is there any repercussion if i leave? and also is there any way i can tell idiots at valve never to waste my time doing that again

Prof Quickiebomb Kit price has gone waaaay up, check SCM and adjust your price. Last I checked, it was something like $14.

WHY IS THIS STILL HERE

spy's about backstabbing people (and sometimes sentries)

in dps he might be weaker but his role was always supposed to be support

meanwhile pyro is an "offense" class and even before they nerfed him into the dirt last year the only way you could viably attack with him was flare/axe or just babysit an engi

there are no penalties for leaving casual

>Heavy mains are all pub shitters
>Pyro mains are all comp wannabes
>casual mode doesn't work but comp mode can at least connect
once casual mode is fixed I'm sure we'll see a lot more scoring done for team heavy

I forgot that I even had it for sale, thanks for reminding me to take it down so I can use it on a strange

If it is a casual match, it's fine, you can leave.
If it is a competitive match, you will be penalized.

casual games don't have any leave penalty now

What a neato update, am I right fellas?

ah good
"you will not be able to rejoin this match"
hopefully for the rest of my life fuckin 280 ping poppycock

havent played competitive yet, need to be at the right room temperature

>every single pyro had an unusual in ugc steel except me

sorry
dont yell

i hope people cant see my deaths and score and all that shit because sometimes i like to just fuck around and play fat scout or use some retarded loadout but this ranking shit ruined that

the fact that they have stats for kd makes me think that people are going to go for kills rather than do the objective soon

You've been able to view others' K:D ratio since Tough Break I think when they added the detailed scoreboard.

I don't think anyone actually uses it, and I could never get it to work consistently.

when will they add dpm to the stats

Yeah, about that

i am so shaky right now and i am almost going up in rank.
hold me /tf2g/

I meant the overall lifetime stats I have a lot more kills than deaths right now but I don't want people looking at my stats thinking i'm a shitter

why dont you post this in owg
whats the point of posting it here

Oh. I hope that's private. I mean, I'm pretty sure everyone already knows I'm a shitter, but I don't want to give them proof. I have a 113:84 K:D right now.

Are there no dominations in casual/matchmaking?
Should there be?

no
yes

QUICKPLAY OR RIOT

Apparently not.
Dominations are part of the game, removing them seems silly.

so you're releasing a competetive mode, with no votes and an increased incentive to cheat for ranks, obviously you're going to create a real system to report and verify cheaters like overwatch in CS:GO right? you wouldnt just let cheaters do what they please and ruin your competetive mode would you?

>keep getting put into Chilean servers

de donde eres ?

Random crits are part of the game, removing them seems silly. Same for no weapon or class limits.

I unironically agree with all of these statements.

I have never been put in a non-Virginia server. How are you this unlucky?

...

CHI CHI CHI
LE LE LE
CHILE CHILE
CHILE

You are correct, and no. The scoreboard and ones perception is far more indicative of who to focus on than a "ur shit" stamp.

Random crits are bullshit, the second thing would make sense if (almost) every weapon were at least usable and not either ridiculously OP or ridiculously underwhelming. Every single class has its niche role to play, even a spy can be useful in some circumstances in 6v6, it doesn't mean you should run spy 24/7, though.

>no dominations in casual
Seriously? Domination voice lines were the best.

Let's be honest though: If you got dominated by someone, it probably means that someone is good enough that they deserve your focus over other enemies.

Of course, though, there are situations in which a shitter sees a Spy that dominated them and a Medic and they decide to kill the Spy and let the Medic get away.

t. gets dominated by everyone and never dominated
owning noobs and having a big badge next to your name to prove it is the best and should at least be added to casual

>citing 6v6 for anything
quite possibly the most stagnant competitive scene known to man

someone buy this hat

but randomcrits are to "make and break killstreaks"

>Random crits are part of the game, removing them seems silly
Is this Jill from Valve? If so, you are shit. Get back to work and remove that crap already from this game.

Yea, I'm surprised they made 'actual' comp 6v6

sent ;)

>"but randomcrits are to "make and break killstreaks""
>They are more likely to be awarded the more damage you've dealt
I honestly can't follow Valve's train of thought with this.

By that logic, a Scout who dominated me through four assists has a higher priority than a Medic. Do you really agree with that?
I've got 5,000 hours in the game and I don't believe that dominations add a lot to the game. Use your killstreaks and stranges if you want to wave your dick around. I will concede that I get pretty bothered when I do get dominated.

b4nny stack just got matched against slin stack in cp_badlands

>By that logic, a Scout who dominated me through four assists has a higher priority than a Medic. Do you really agree with that?
I already addressed this in that same post with the Spy example.

My point is that Domination badges can sometimes still be good to discern what players could potentially be a larger problem to your team, but they need a good player behind making those decisions to know when it's good to focus the player who's dominating you, and when it's better to kill a higher-priority enemy even when they are not dominating you.

>I will concede that I get pretty bothered when I do get dominated.
knew it lmao
and theres literally no reason to remove them in casual
of course it wouldnt matter to you because youve never pubstomped so yeah

an update has been released for team fortress 2
the patch notes are as follows:
- every time someone uses a lenny face in chat they lose a level
- every time your teammate is a fuckign idiot retard they die irl

what are you supposed to do if you encounter cheaters in matchmaking?

I was kind of enjoying it but running into some very obvious cheaters completely ruined it for me

retard detected. 6's is close perfect, besides pyro being useless. although pyro is useless in every format which is why you should vote team pyro.
>inb4 autistic "only 4 classes are used!" argument

email eric and tell him I said to do something about aimbotters

Yeah, where the fuck did these go?

I swear I hear a voice line every once in a blue moon. I remember them a lot 5 years ago. Is there a setting that interferes with them?

>but they need a good player behind making those decisions
So the perception of the players matters more than an arbitrary badge which will often antagonize a player? I'm not disagreeing that dominations can often be a strong indication of who to focus and who to avoid. But, the perception of you and your teammates will never lead you astray in that regard.
>and theres literally no reason to remove them in casual
There are plenty of reasons to remove them, and only a handful in favor of keeping them.
>of course it wouldnt matter to you because youve never pubstomped so yeah
oh shit i was baited

...

slinstack btfo by classic 6's lineup

I don't know. I remember 6 years ago Scout saying a voice line every time he double jumped.

He still does.

>6's is close perfect
And yet the scene is only diminishing in size. Surely the perfect game would attract countless followers?

b4nnystack vs shuckle right now

>I bought a strange part to track dominations
>Now worth $0

>There are plenty of reasons to remove them, and only a handful in favor of keeping them.
ITS C A S U A L
name reasons as to why its a problem in fucking CASUAL

>I did the same thing as you, but I didn't know about the change and put a competitive filter on it

As previously established, dominations can be misleading and antagonistic to casual players.

shuckle fragging b4nny hard

i think the cause is people being less open to new players
someone that played several seasons in competitive leagues doesnt want having to teach every single thing to a new comer, and would rather not play with him

I've started to try KOF13 trials for fun.

I can't even get 2x qcf move out in the time that they expect you to cancel.

>dominations can be misleading
unless they are 12 and don't know the meaning of the word I can't see how

WHO CARES
THATS WHY IS CASUAL
HOW HARD IS IT FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT JESUS CRISTO

Where does Battle Scarred fit into things?
It's like the polar opposite of FN, but it's more interesting than the other exteriors.

Is it the cheapest?

post more

generally yes, unless you get to unusual weapons where it's a wild card

Yeah but I remember it being literally every single time.

...

I'll take the previous example: a Scout dominates you through four assists. If you followed the dominations, he's a bigger target than the enemy Medic. But, we both know that's not true.
>who cares
That same argument can be extended to just about every thing in the game. Who cares about balance and gameplay in a casual pub? It's fine if you disagree with me in this regard, but that's an irreconcilable difference.

shut up if ur not posting more

Why do I see more #TeamHeavys than #TeamPyros

Why are Heavy voters such attention whores

No really: boards.Veeky Forums.org/trash/thread/3974765

>If you followed the dominations
no one does this

It's the exact opposite. I've only seen only 3 #TeamHeavys and fuck ton of #TeamPyros.

I see the opposite really. Guess it's about even

christ do you not know how to cross thread

You're absolutely correct that experience is an immense barrier to entry, which should result in a massive amount of players at the lower levels. Yet this mass of shitters doesn't exist, because nobody wants to enter a stagnant and unenjoyable e-sports scene.

Time to remind y'all of OLD MENES
