WHEN IS THE UPDATE VALVE I FUCKING SWEAR IM GOING TO GO INSANE SOON I CANT HANDLE THIS

>overwatch doesn't have trading
why even bother

I can't wait for the update so we can complain about the balance changes

>dead ringer still exists after the update

this is considered acceptable to valve

youtu.be/KDnbhE1vJbs

when was the last time valve added a weapon or hat or map that wasn't from the workshop

like two days ago when they added the audio file

Post a picture of yourself IRL

Post your favorite song from TF2.
youtu.be/2ENmljQAYXI

this is pathetic beyond comprehension

Dj Pootis in da house

...

I dunno. I have my face on my discord already and mods will probably delete my post anyway.

WTF GUYS ITS B0BBY

BEE FOUR EN WHY
MY FRIEND TOLD ME TO TELL YOU THAT YOU WERE A MEANIE

There I look like soldier irl. It's TF2 related

it's fucking b1lly you retard

No weapon is ever going to be removed from the game. You know this.

/me drinks soda
This is one my friend took of me awhile back
Too lazy to try and look nice and take a new one so this is all you get

oh em gee it's benny

NOOOOOOOOO

...

Where is the rest of you?

...

i thought that was a walrus with a butthole for a face from the thumbnail

Oh jeez looks like we went off topic again.

Stop breathing.

Real picture of the janitors

disguised

more like disgusting

>mfw an entire thread goes off the rails and janny jans clean up
Great Job

Is this how viva's face looks like?

Now THAT'S what I call a spic!

>tfw a nigger
>tfw get called a spic
Ole

Is Pyro the THICCEST

Inseparable.
I nailed the cosplay.

You look like one of my cousins, you ain't black. GET outta here. That skin tone and that mustache screams spic.

Is k/d ratio important to track in this game? I mean in this sense do people judge you by that stat?

Remember that one thread about TF2 domination lines for Overwatch characters?

not really but if your high scoring and get objectives your k/d will likely be good anyways

No, not really. It's just something to keep in mind. You don't want to die constantly in order to get one kill. It's just a thing to keep in mind when improving as a player.

Game is actually lot of fun. It's fun because it's mostly like Quake's multiplayer and they haven't changed the core values of it (i.e. speed). Funny how Id Software managed to make so perfect framework back in the day.

This casual matchmaking system is still fucking cancerous and terrible.

Not only queues but awful matches with zero balance are common, you wait for a match and then it's a quick stomp because one team has 12 people and the other has 3, then back to queues.

There aren't community servers to pick up the slack, tons of shitty ones running maps like orange, or it's a 32man shitfest.

There was nothing wrong with server browser and valve servers before, NOTHING. Stupid retards at Valve killed this fucking game.

did you edit that in paint
why do i see pencil doodles on it

stop wearing hats in the house you ape-mans

>ask b4nny when he's going to fuck nursy
>he ignores me

ask nursey then
i bet they erp after pugs

What are you gonna do about it big boy? Complain on the interne--oh..

Stop calling me a big boy you big boy.

For you.

why is it so difficult for you guys to accept the truth?

Leave this general. For me.
Because sniper has the highest skill ceiling.

Because he's also got the lowest skill floor

and

>pointing and clicking with hitscan
monkey island is more challenging than that

Mge me as snipers then. I will be with aimbot.

As a new player the matchmaking seems to be problematic. Often it's completely out of balance.

What can we do about it?

assuming the highest possible skill ceiling is to be as good as a hacker then a hacking pyro with perfect understanding of where flame particles are going to go and when and where to reflect projectiles would still be less effective than even a hacking heavy.

>Sniper takes skill guys!
*Stays back away from the action and pops off shots until he shoots somebody.*

You are schizophrenic? There's no doodles on it...

-

That would still be less effective than a natascha heavy lmao

effectiveness != skill ceiling
the fact that hitscan can be botted shows you how easy it is. a dumb soulless machine can do it.

show me a demoman or huntsman sniper bot with 100% accuracy and then we'll talk

youtu.be/CX_0Klx83bE

????

dont fuck with me i can clearly see the lines doodled onto it with mspaint

i said 100% accuracy. this guy misses on his 3rd shot already.

projectile based weapons actually require skill

>Let me use a program to literally give myself an advantage that cannot be possible with average humans.
>Somehow this proves that sniper takes skill.

Hmmmmmm

Hitscan aimbots aren't 100% either

but even then pyro at its absolute most effective possible in a situation where everything is going for him doesn't even come close to a sniper under worse conditions. skill ceiling means nothing when the scenarios that allow pyro to perform well are so infrequent that they never necessitate playing the class.
if sniper is so easy then it should be easy to beat a hacker is the line of thinking he's going for.

>He doesn't know how to read a video description

L M A O AT YOUR LIFE

>skill ceiling means nothing when the scenarios that allow pyro to perform well are so infrequent that they never necessitate playing the class.
sure, but that doesn't change the fact that pyro has the highest potential skill ceiling.

You are insane. I am sorry but you should take medication immediately.

who is that one player you always run into playing pubs?

EXCUSE ME BUT CAN YOU PLEASE KEEP IT DOWN IM TRYING TO LISTEN TO THE ANTS

nothing, Valve doesn't give a flying fuck about the state of the game

why isn't there an official instagib mode in tf2

>cannot be possible with average humans.
It's technically possible. That's why sniper have highest skill ceiling.
You can't talk shit about it unless you are really good at it. Otherwise you are just mad shitter.

i mean in imaginary scenarios that never happen, sure, take that trophy and put it on your shelf

you're just mad because you can't join a valve server to stomp third world poorfag kids anymore.

match making is the best thing that happened to tf2 since f2p and mannconomy

...

>Tfw experienced all types of aimbots and can pinpoint exactly what program they are using.
>Tfw some idiot is telling me that a person can replicate these actions.

Right, because a person can see through walls and know exactly where you are.
Comparing a person to a program is literally the stupidest thing I've heard.

You clearly don't know what aimbots actually do besides "hur it shoots good".

Anybody can aim well, sniper isn't the only class that requires aim.

The problem that I have with your shit argument is that aimbots aren't what humans are capable of, period. It literally gives you a distinct advantage through the game itself. Ie. Wallhacks, artificial lag.

>Anybody can aim well
clearly not, as people still main pyro

>Shotguns/flares don't require aim.

Right. I forgot secondaries exist in this game.

>the fact that hitscan can be botted shows you how easy it is. a dumb soulless machine can do it.
well ain't that something
also
>aiming flares
>when the scorch shot exists

Why are you all talking past each other trying to determine skill in two completely different arenas with one acknowledging the existence of aimbots and script/prediction programs and the other assuming the metric doesn't involve them?

Are you even trying to debate at this point?
Your points are as durable as wet paper.

Programs designed to be perfect as possible =\= humans with flaws.

I will turn wallhack off and decrease aimbot fov to 1-3.
You will still bitch about it ? I guess you are just bad.
>You clearly don't know what aimbots actually do besides "hur it shoots good".
Tell me about mr expert.

well apparently hitscan is so easy it basically doesn't require skill but now it takes skill when it backs up your claims? that's not helping your case.

god im so fucking sick of hackers and their smug as fuck attitudes. they are going to kill this game dead if valve doesnt do something

>Program that is designed to instantly shoot you with inhuman reaction speeds.
>''Hurr a person can totally do this! They need to be skilled enough durrr!"

Changing your in-game settings won't stop the bot from doing what it's designed to do.

Stop kidding yourself. C'mon.

im playing on 2fort right now just cus i know hackers arent gonna come bother with a stalemate server anyways

>Program correct your shots by few degrees
>HOW CAN I EVEN COMPETE??????????
Get good buddie.
I was playing with legit config at tf2center versus sniper mains and they outsnipe me frequently

Aiming requires skill. Sniper just needs to stay back and pop shots. That's it. He can take as long as he wants aiming because he isn't in the front lines. In fact, by your logic, Spy requires the highest skill.

He's basically a sniper. The revolver technically being an unscopable sniper rifle. It shoots one bullet at a time.

You can use the best aimbot in the world but it's still being controlled by a fat loser with flaws.

They probably had better game sense than you. You're probably even worse without the cheat. You rely so much on the program doing the work for you that you ignore everything else.
