I'm done with TF2

No news for you.This game is fucked up. Finally. Not by itself, but by its community. It has the most percentage of ignorant fuckers ever.
They consider that grenades are blasphemy, but crits are the core mechanic of the game and the game is not fun without them. Nocrit server are fucking bullshit for them. They consider that pyro in TF2 is very skillfull class and at same time soldier and sniper are the most noobish - "just pop the sight over their heads". That achievement bullshit. When half of the server forget about everything and try to burn butts of each other to get new shiny toy.
Game is fun for them not because it is TF, but because it's cartoonish game with crits. Well, game still plays fun 6x6. But I'm finished with pub play.

Yeah, the kids are very into getting those "achievements" i noticed.

I miss the nades and concs ofc, but one cannot deny the sublime design of the sentries! lol

Pyro is overpowered i think especially when it sets up a trap or sneaks up on ya from behind.

And scout is supposed to be an offy class but i love to do some damage in the attacking team's "rear" lines. Soldier too is offense now, and it does work. RJ is messed up, it functions but you lose plenty of health.

I don't play it very often, same goes for FF cuz European servers are empty. Always!

TF2 isn't that bad of a game. People in online games are for the most part dumb. And Soldier is not that hard to play in TF2. It takes a long time to master, but it's one of the classes that people can jump right in and start playing. Crit rockets are also retarded.... Recently though, they have tried to kill the "shootmyfoot soldier" mechanic by making Soldiers take more damage when they shoot a rocket at themselves close up and aren't rocket jumping. That, I think, was the main problem with the class because people could basically shoot themselves with a rocket and not take much damage, but the enemy would still take a lot. Not so much anymore.

That's one of the reasons we limit the pyro class in our TF2 server based on the number of people in the server. Most of the time they can only have 1, but up to 3 in a full server. Keeps the achievement hunters moving on.

and the achievments is why i use a program (not, not a VAC hack, a steam hook-in) i got it from none other than engee-man, very useful, only unlock the MileStones which unlock the weapons, while keeping the achievements themselves locked if im bored ill try to unlock em


oh and TF2 is THE most whiny community EVER. but soldier is a bit easy to play, but snipers take skill, espeically the sniper in TF2



the problem with skillfull players is that they kill alot of people. Then, there's the respawn. i get mad because they killed me, now i gotta look at a timer, i rarley say NS. but in FF/TFC, there's the instant respawn, which keeps things fresh and fun. i always say NS or respect a good player. in TF2, i usually am like WTF FACESTAB or XXX class is overpowered.

Dunno what servers you play on, but I've yet to see any players with that kind of attitude towards grenades and what not..sure i play wit alot who have never played TFC..but still. You need to find a better server.

2nd note..there are alot of games communities that have alot of ignorance in them...not naming any names...but it certainly does affect how much people will wanna play that game..one major reason why i haven't touched FF in some time and mostly go with TF2. Sure i miss the nades and concs..but its far from the end of the world.

Generally the only issue I find is people trying to complete obscene Achievements (Melee kills are the biggest example.) But the rest of what you say seems to be more dependent on who your playing with, I play on a lot of servers but never encounter ANY of these types of individuals.

And while I'll agree that crits are annoying as fuck to an extent, they do influence the Highs, and Lows, of game play.

But I enjoy the near-superb balance of TF2's classes, and the fact that game design actually makes every class valuable to whatever game type your playing. That and unlockable weapons just make it that more fun.

My favorite thing to do now though is area denial with the pyro alternate blast, nothing cramps an uber'd medics style when he gets knocked off a ledge and looses contact to his target. Its just sad that no one ever uses it.

I find the backburner more valuable... difficult for me to go to the blower... although I should give it another shot.

TF2 is ehhhh
I play it a lot
but, I dont really enjoy it anymore like I used to..
Community is fail.
Every damn server, seriously, there's a whole team of slow people, I'm always on top, its annoying, It's soo rare to find one good pub team.
The crits are pretty bad too, they are the grenades of TF2, but with no skill and they are very annoying.
It's the most updated game I've ever played, but it's still not going so well as I thought I'd be. FF ftw!
Lol, if FF was as updated as TF2, GG. Oh well though, I can wait for 2.1, it looks worth it. I'd like a more polished, fun, and playable game, then a rushed, bad game, like TF2 is becoming with the unlockables, especially for pyro.
I enjoy the unlockables and all, of course, I have all of them, but its a pretty bad.
It can take out a Lvl 3 Sentry, with no uber or anything just head on..

I never use the blower because I have config that uses my right mouse key to switch between the flamethrower and shotgun, and I don't have any other buttons on my mouse to bind the blower to.
