and then you start to doubt that they're really people at all, and think "They behave exactly the same every time they respawn... They never say anything... They run right in the line of fire..."

[Siquo]

Did you know that actual real stupidity is really hard to program? Making bots act like these clowns is no mean feat.

And then you realise we exist in the generation that doesn't want to learn the game and just wants to be "teh uber" instantly.

There's the issue. They refuse to learn from their mistakes because it's THE GAME'S FAULT that they keep dying, not their's.

[LASD]

Wow, players are BAD. Having a point total twice that of the next ranked player, all the time, isn't a game anymore, it's humiliating for me.

Yeah, it kind of bothers me when I get to the top of the team playing a Frying Pan Demoknight. Or it would if I weren't busy laughing myself silly with all the "KLANG"'s landed on unsuspecting people coming from behind corners.

I suppose the thing is that TF2 is such a - wait for it - team-based game and there's so much synergy between each of the classes that the simplest changes in a team can affect the entire round. I can be playing in a relatively mediocre fashion and not be able to get anything done - somehow my opponents always have slightly too much health, they're slightly too close, etc. - but as soon as one person on my team switches classes, it creates an opening and things immediately get easier. There wasn't any input on my end, but the actions of one person make a... "cascade" of sorts and it all falls into place.

On the subject, I had someone call the opposing team a "no-skill noob team" because it had something like 3 heavies and 3 pyros. He was losing. Protip: If you're losing to W+Mouse1, that's nobody's fault but your own. Not really an uncommon occurance in FPS culture, sure, but...

Enough rambling. I have now witnessed the wonder of the Soda Popper firsthand. Harass, circle, twoshot medic/engie/sniper, retreat with pistol for a cool 200+ damage, repeat.

[Siquo]

The Mackarel is still way cooler than the frying pan.

I'm still doubting about that soda popper. It's very cool, but I'll use it when I get sick of my short stop, which isn't anytime soon. *pewpewpewpew*

[GaxkangtheUnbound]

It's silly how easily a demoknight falls to a Tomislav.
119 kills, 28 deaths, in about 30 minutes

[Cthulhu]

I don't think I've died to demoknights as heavy more than three or four times.  I've come to love seeing them run at me.

[The Doctor]

Anyone play on a match where there were 3 medics and three spies?

I did that last week, I was a medic.

We won.

Wut.

If this was arena, then it makes some sense. Medics regenerate.

[The Doctor]

Nope, cp_dustbowl.

[Duke 2.0]

 More medics that dont die is always more better for the team. If they all keep somewhat back and are not sniped then their team has a huge advantage.

 Im also sorry, but anybody who describes Pyro as W+M1 automatically sounds like an enormous tool to me. It never existed and completely fucked up Pyro balance. See> Eualizer, Demoknight. Shoot. Them. With anything really.

[PTTG??]

I've played a few rounds of Vs. Saxton Hale mode. It can be a lot of fun, but I can never find a server with less than 1000 ms ping.

It's actually surprisingly useful. If you pair it with the Winger, then you can do 21+ damage at medium range and 100+ at close, with each shot.

That said, yeah, love my Short Stop. Biggest problem with Scout is I'm always running out of shells and having to reload, and then shooting during the reloading and forgetting to check how many shells I have left. Soooo many perfect shots, wasted.

[MaximumZero]

Okay, so I have an odd proposition. How would I go about setting up a long-term server for TF2 while not actively playing it? For you guys, of course.
