first for viva is closet homo

i finally installed tf2classic, there isn't a single server in the browser. looking it up makes me feel like it is because of valve or whatever finding a bug but is it still a problem? can i just not play at all? are there unofficial server lists?

they're all shit.
Either dead or filled with attention whores

If the Buff Banner got a passive effect, what should it be?

It doesn't need one, but if it did i'd bet something dumb like more reserve ammo

I actually think the Buff Banner is worse than the Battilions Backup in every way.

Buff Banner:
>+35% Damage

Battilions Backup:
>-35% Damage Taken
>Crit Immunity
>-50% Damage taken from sentries
>+20hp Passively

meme answer: +5% crit chance on wearer. even on nocrit servers

memier answer: merged with mantreads

real answer: no passives just make it charge faster like the other banners

I hate waiting a week after buying something from SCM.

Is there a way to mute mumble without showing?

What if the liberty launcher kept it's current stats but got no falloff on directs?

If the TF2 dev team want to encourage team play and helping teammates, why did they make the Conch into a "Fuck you I only get benefit" item?

windows audio mixer, turn down mumble area

Kinda hot

it's already overpowered you dumbdumb

nerf the damage to like -33% and maybe

We get it, dude. You're a furry.

The Liberty Launcher

Level 25 Scottish Resistance
+No reload necessary
+50% primary reserve ammo
+40% projectile speed
+25% faster firing speed
-25% blast damage from rocket jumps
Mini-crits targets launched airborne by explosions, grapple hooks or enemy attack
Alt-Fire: Detonate all active projectiles.
Special Fire / Reload Key: Consume 10 rockets to launch a really big rocket with stock damage, double splash and triple knock back.
Third successful hit in a row always crits
-50% damage penalty
-Reflected projectiles deal full critical hits
-No random critical hits
Holiday Restriction: Halloween / Full Moon

Mini-Teleporter
Engineer Secondary
Passive (You lose your pistol)
>+Teleporter Build Speed increased by 200%
>+Teleporter charges 125% faster (Between lvl2 and lvl3)
>-Teleporter can not be upgraded.
>-Teleporter exit loses health every time it is used

/tf2g/ in VGL when?

its a nice concept, but in practice it would be wasteful, as teleporters if placed correctly dont usually sustain damage
but on the other hand with good team coordination you would virtually be able to spawn your teammates in the right place a the right time by plopping one down, having them teleport and building it again somewhere else
it definitely seems more like a koth map choice than a defense choice

Hypodermic Injector
Medic Melee
>When Active:
>Keep momentum for 0.1 seconds after touching the ground. (Enabled bunny-hopping)
>20% of damage received drains Übercharge.

hey

+heals / overheals on hit ally
-replaces medigun with a shotgun

I would use that weapon 24/7
Shotgun is bae

Post mercs, we rate eachother

all of my loadouts look like this

>buff needle gun primaries for medic (make projectile faster or buff damage considerably)
>remove uber building from crusader xbow
>nerf crusader xbow damage
>give medic a shotgun primary
i just balanced medic primaries
your welcome

+added crossbow slot to medic class

>Pocket has pocket medic and EP
>Scout has basher and weird shirt cosmetic
>Yet roamer has no gunboats

I like all of them except Engi and Spy.
Engineer seems a bit too random in terms of combination.
8/10 in total, nice stuff

How about each syringe heal 5 hp for allies? Other Syringe Guns will have different heal stat.

>How about each syringe heal 5 hp for allies?
lol.
no.

syringe gun fix

>reloads passively like crossbow
>projectile speed increased to 1100
>removed random spread, kept projectile arc
>max falloff reduced to 70%

all it needs

that would be so unsatisfying to heal with. *constant stream of syringes to heal someone*
medigun still exists.

idk what i'm doing w/ my offclasses lol

they're not bad but a bit generic. i don't like the sniper but i like future punk style medic

bad

wow planets is super invisible

The entire point of the medic is that he's vulnerable. Giving him better options to defend himself would be insane on top of the shit he can do already.

no it wouldn't because he can't do both at the same time

it's why demo and heavy get a pass for having two primaries

i didnt feel like starting up the game

That's an enitrely different situation, because both of the heavy and demo primaries fulfill the same purpose. If you can heal shit up and just switch to a powerful primary like the shotgun if you actually need it, the class gets to ridiculous power levels, especially because of the passive reg.

having a shotgun is barely a primary if you dont move faster than engineer (so that you can get in range to deal actual damage)

People always sleep on the Battalions Backup that its a little sad

>le dab :D
epic
like it
upvoted

>Burning targets now receive mini-crits from all melee weapons.

>The Axtinguisher
>Level 10 Fire Axe
>Crits whenever it would normally mini-crit
>-10% damage penalty
>No random critical hits

what happens

>People already omplain about medics trying to crossbow them instead of just healing
>Let's make it even worse!
I completely see valve doing this
The syringegun is the best designed weapon in the game, it's fine as it is

>random projectile deviation
>good design ever

hahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahahhhahahahaahahahahhaahahagahsdhdhhdhahahGa

Speaking of the crossbow, when do you usually use it to heal over the medi-gun? I usually use it when my target is far away or they need healing faster than 24 HP/sec

Very good pyro buff
>The SVF now has a slightly better chance of being used
>Engineers come to like pybros even more
>Sniper can bushwank burning targets in ridicolous fashion
>Demoknights can team up with pyros to be slightly more effective
>Nothing else really changes
Please try and think for a second
The medic isn't supposed to be a combat class, so the syringegun is BAD at attacking (projectile spread and falloff, travel time, etc), but GOOD when running away after your patients have died (Ridicolous dps, projectile arc makes connecting syringes on pursuing enemies very easy, requiring little precision while you focus on the escape itself)

I'm not in them, but I think I can do a small check in a few days to see if they worth anything to have on this thread. They're fairly new, I say we should give it a chance to grow first. I for one, don't want this general to be like /x/'s /div/.

With Battallion you have +20 max hp anyway

Merge with B.A.S.E or allow its RAGE meter to benefit from a small percentage of self-inflicted damage from blast jumps (fall damage won't work).

Sweet idea

In my opinion just 'sader damage needs a nerf. So other options will be at least "somewhat" viable.
Overdose is crap, have no idea how to fix it.

Is sniper better than spy, without memeing? In comp obviously yes, but what about pubs?

>random projectile deviation
>good design ever
So, shotguns, pistols and revolvers, smgs, miniguns, flame throwers and beggar's are badly designed?

sniper can actually turn the tide of a match of you're good

spy is just a perpetual distraction and nothing else

projectiles my friendo

>beggars
yes it's probably the worst designed RL in the game

Sniper can't take down engi nests as fast as spy, nor take out multiple people on the cart/point

So, what exactly makes random deviation fine if it's hitscan?

>tones and their 1shot cannons
>r97's seemingly infinite magazine
I'm not playing till these things are patched/nerfed

Name a better sentry spot on 2fort
Protip: You can't

>29 fps on maps/ctf_2fort.bsp

I cap it at 30

I think you meant to post in titanfall 2 general buddy, this is team fortress 2 general

cap it at something higher than that if you really have to or build a decent pc the cheapers skylake cpus are really good for tf2
have some self-respect man

Exit main spawn, turn right, place it so it's halfway between the hall and the top of the stairs
Grats, you've just locked down your whole base

Right in the intel room

Yeah I noticed a bit too late
Well, have a happy play time.

rigged

fucking smurfs

Cute engineer :3

>pablo.gomez2007

I feel like we're on the same wavelength
Also
>2 scouts

>not having all 4 loadout slots filled with different combinations for different things
WHY ARE THERE STILL ONLY 4 LOADOUTS

I do that. Just not for hats. Also I don't think you need more than 4.

Finally got my set complete as far as look for my scout, enjoy some spare items to celebrate.

tf2r.com/kh9av9k.html

>tfw at some point 4 is not enough and you just get used to switching out stuff directly in the backpack

Your unusual effect is dog shit

No, it is orbiting planets

Your orbiting planets are dog shit. Just like any other orbiting planets, though.

Unfortunately its the most fitting effect I could think of for the character, but I never hated planets so its whatever. The other options was haunted ghosts, but I thought this was more fitting

>le themed loadouts
holy autism

autism? probably.
it's better than the full neon paint sets that permeate every server, though. My set looks good regardless if its an epic theme or not.
please be nice to my scout

dont bully :

Your scout is worse than viva's taste.

...

People attacking get ammo and med packs if you do that.

A soldier can rocket jump through the hole in the floor and then ambush you while you are next to the dispenser to heal the sentry.
Any other spot is also easy to ambush with this sentry position.

Thanks

Block the door with your dispencer.
hownew

Then your dispenser is down retard and you also have to fight the solly with minimal help from sentry

...

>Then your dispenser is down
HOLY SHIT HOW HORRYIFYING
You will have atleast few second to react then someone destroying your dispencer. If you will still fuckup somehow then it's only your fault.

That pyros not thicc enough....

Not fat fempyro mod link?

>Not wanting a THICCCCCC Pyro

gayyyyy

>Humping dispenser when you're right outside spawn
Are you retarded? Put your dispenser in that one doorway, then run back to the locker to get more ammo. Even if your sentry does go down and they go for intel, you'll have a level 3 back up in no-time with the jag, and your dispenser blocking that one doorway will tell you which path they're coming up because no one on 2fort knows they can just jump over it.

Right here.

Please teach me to be better at Engineer

Spam jag and RR bolts.

It's the subtlty, anons. Sometimes it's best when they're not trying too hard, or because they're not trying. Emphasis can be obnoxious.
Here's a couple warnings before you get too exited:
>Uploaded: Two Years Ago
>Updated: Two Years Ago
Also, while lots of classes have fucked shoulders during animations, I've noticed it's a bit exceptional.

>not using your dispenser to block the doorway to the intel
2/10 apply youself

But I like to use the Southern Hospitality and Pomson

You will never be good at engineer. I hate turtling and feel the need to be aggressive as fuck even with a level 3. I only got it into that spot because the other team was really bad and half my team was spawncamping with me.

>You will never be good at engineer

>not using the funslinger

>hating yourself and every other player on the enemy team
