shooting down ideas

Snipe · 10-25-2012, 06:08 PM

This is a serious question. I want to start off by saying I am not starting this thread to start a flame war, or piss anyone off.

Why is it that the majority of new features/class specific stuff/ideas/etc, get shot down by the majority of the people who play FF? Because it strays too far from tfc? Because its not something that neotf has? Well guess what people, THIS ISNT TFC. IT ISNT NEOTF. IT ISNT TF2. This game is not designed to play exactly like tfc. or any other fps. Adding things like Overpressure, jump pads, or anything else is what sets this game apart from tfc. This is not TFC Source dammit. Also, I dont see how it unbalances the game (wanted to throw that out there real quick). The majority of the differences add speed and a faster pace, and things require people to THINK more and use at least some strategy. theres a fatty at a choke point, omg overpressure. well, go a different route. almost all of the maps have multiple routes. I think people are just so used to going one way EVERY time, they dont want to do something different cause its not the fastest possible way. I played monkey yesterday with about 6 or 7 other people. I was offense. flag room was empty so I knew the front door was guarded well. I grabbed the flag and went the water route THE ENTIRE WAY. yea it took forever, but I got a cap. an easy cap. strategy people. strategy...

now im just rambling. discuss. flame me. curse me. IDGAF.

Gotcha covered. ("Good look, Largos")

You are a scallywag, sir.

Your mother wears loose fitting clothes and your dog is of subpar intelligence.

(Am I doing it right?)

Thou art worth less than a fishnet condom!

I thought this was TFC Source when I first started playing, but I like FF the way it is minus a few annoying imbalances.

The pyro. Also, the sniper just feels meh to me in all honesty.

I haven't played in a while, can't remember much else that I didn't like about the game.

Just because it isn't TFC doesn't mean you have to add stupid shit to make it different. The reason things get shot down has nothing to do with how like or unlike any other game is, it's just about how fun or annoying the idea is.

Even if you like the idea of over pressure it's still a mess and annoying to play against. It's implemented poorly imo, or at least just not a fully fleshed out idea.
