Flinch distance limit is a minigun thing. As scout if I am approaching a sniper head on I pepper him with pistol shots before switching to my shotgun to finish. At a distance if there's nothing better to do I shoot him with my shotgun even if he isn't aiming at me just to fuck his shots over.
>>492634334
Has the right idea too. Anyone who actually plays sniper will know that every flanker is going to come to come trying to collect their free kill because most of the time that's exactly what sniper is.

Do you guys feel the need to deck out the mercs you hardly play? It feels very lopsided having some completely filled out, stranged up and all that jazz and others naked. My medic and heavy for example, I never trade for items for them so they're dressed in scraps. It makes me sad to see them like that but I've yet to bite the bullet and commit to getting them something good.

Three reasons why your shit is constantly dying
>you are placing it in a good spot, but too far forward
>you are placing it in a bad spot
>the enemy team are just raping you in general
The easiest way is to just make sure you're not too far forward. I know there's a temptation to put the dispenser right at the front where everyone's fighting, or your sentry near their spawn, but the sentry is mostly to protect your backline/point and the dispenser is a fall back point, not a forward holding point. You don't need to study the maps all that much if you get a feel for how close your stuff should be to the front line, and when to move back when the front line is encroaching on you.
As for good spots, that might require some studying, but try to find places for a dispenser where even if someone is shooting rockets at the guys near it trying to heal off it, it won't be getting killed. For instance, if you have a doorway and your dispenser is behind it, don't put it right at the corner of the doorway, put it a bit further away so splash doesn't destroy it. For sentries usually you want to defend the objective in some way, so either deny the only route to get to it or deny the objective itself. Don't put it somewhere that it can be spammed easily, but if you have to in order to defend an area, put it such that your team can cover the spam angle. For example on badwater, the cliff is a nice spot even if it can get spammed from a distance, because if your team is holding up there then they can cover that angle so your sentry isn't getting target fired. Another thing to mention is using your dispenser to influence where your team holds and falls back to can help, like in badwater putting your dispenser up on the cliff encourages your team to go up there too which helps protect your sentry while your sentry covers their rear.
Last thing is just recognize that your stuff getting destroyed is part of the game. If your buildings NEVER die, the teams are unbalanced.

We had them beat before they got to the first checkpoint. It was game over. If they earn overtime just by pushing the cart 51% of the way to the checkpoint (I actually don't know how it works) then what is the point of the checkpoint? It's actually just an arbitrary prop that means nothing. I can't stand it.

Why would you not run the most overtuned weapon in the game given the choice to? Unless you have really bad aim and a Kritz medic up your ass 24/7 there's no excuse not to hard main the DH if you actually want to win. If not, you may as well just use the Rocket Jumper.

How expensive is that loadout? A jew would never spend that much money on video game hats.
>>
It's an uphill battle to reason with anti-competitive people in the first place. What possible purpose could it serve? Even if competitive had zero restrictions, antis would still call it boring, cringe, fake, pretentious, etc. So, really, who even cares? The argument, at its core, essentially boils down to "consenting people are playing the game in a way that they want to, and I don't approve of this". This may sound silly or absurd, but that really is their main point. But, I honestly have to tell you this brutally and flat-out: nobody is obligated to appease you, cunt. If you participated in games, that would be a different story, but this is simply not the case. Anti-competitive people aren't interested in the ruleset, they aren't interested in the logic behind it, they aren't interested in the fact that the community is dictated around fun. They only exist to be spiteful, lying, self-important pricks, that want to shit on other people for the act of enjoying the game in a certain way. That's all there is to it.
>>
>>492749278
Funny thing is that the hat itself probably is not very expensive. Dead presidents is one of the cheapest effects in the game. The strange gunslinger and PDA however are a few hundred each.
>>
>>492749523
All I know is that all modern maps are made to accomodate Soldier and Demoman. I played Engineer on Overgrown and there are literally no valid Sentry spots, you just have to slam it in random strategic corners. It works against Casual players but any competent Soldier will either tank it with a Medic or just move to a spot that is simply out of range.
I'm getting less and less euthusiastic at the idea of the Wrangler getting nerfed (not that it'll happen anyway kek).

I paid 14 keys for the gunslinger while the salvage was still in circulation. The other anon is right about the hat being cheap, somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 keys. PDA I got in 2021, but I traded for it using other items which had appreciated in value.
>>
>>492750403
I paid a fair price at the time. I mean, I also have a double spelled strange original I got for 32 keys so maybe I am a scammer.

>>492749523
Most of the hate for comp comes from after MYM when Valve decided to cater to comp which came at the casual player’s expense (like 99% of the player base). Before that comp was in its own bubble and did its own thing so a casual player didn’t really care about their weapon bans or whatever because it didn’t affect them.
If instead of comp Valve catered for example to MvM and did a bunch of awful rebalancing to weapons that are bad/too good in MvM then people would probably be sour about MvM as well

Are you the same poster who keeps claiming to represent the competitve community? I'd like to respond or have a conversion, but the way you frame it is in a different universe from how I think about the issue as someone who doesn't think about or play competitive. Youtubers like uncle dane at one point controlled the narritive, and had the notion that casual players should aspire to the competitive scene. The implications of that were that items which made sense for the casual game would have to be changed to be more in line with the ruleset in your gamemode, so there'd be less of a difference between the two. I object to the idea that how comp tf2 plays is a natural extension of the tf2 that I play, and that my game mode should have to recieve changes for the benefit of yours when yours doesn't for mine. This is ultimately on valve, but not everyone is going to be rational about that.

He wants quickplay back but doesn’t think you can convince post-MYM players to go back to a system they’re not familiar with, opting instead to fix the system they already know

Well first of all jokes aside they aren't even real heels, they're an additional prong to reinforce the legs which makes it functionally necessary, and second of all it's a robot so comfort isn't even an issue. It just looks like heels without actually being heels which is a good design choice

Evoking the image of a woman's body without actually being a woman's body and having function behind it is the ideal design for one of these anthro machine things. I think you're just being autistic.
The prongs are necessary, those narrow feet would not be able to support her center of mass on their own. The prongs distribute the weight more evenly. That's also why Sentry guns have the additional legs.

We're talking about the design of anthropomorphized engineer buildings in a 20 year old game, think we're both guilty of that

flat is justice. the shoulders aren't any wider than the ones from the gargoyles tv show, plus she got the wide hips and thighs, and the tail for added leverage to pull you in during a mating press

Opened up the game for 3 hours with the intent of trying to play flanker heavy or try out my new brass beast loadout; didn't get to play him once since I was forced to play others classes to try and prevent us from getting rolled, which did not actually matter in the end.

Do you think it's at all likely that valve will ever actually push out another update that patches broken shit like the vaccinator, and gets rid of shit like the MMR system they have that only makes imbalanced games? I don't say this often, but I'd literally rather have nothing for a matchmaking system. Just throw players together randomly regardless of skill, at least it'd be fair
>>
>>492791524
>lazily slapping heels
Again, they are literally not heels, it's an additional prong to reinforce the leg. It's not lazy if there's thought behind it. It fits the design, it's functional, you are just an autist.
>Again, see the signalis designs, you can absolutely have legs that lack a heel - people can walk on their toes just fine, can't they?
That's a bad comparison. Futuristic scifi is not the same as retro scifi, Engineer's big bulky buildings can't get away with stick legs because they're not made out of space age materials. Plus, Engineer's designs are not sleek or futuristic, they're very much cobbled together out of different parts. Heels also fit the intended time period of the 60's where women were expected to wear them and it definitely fits the the universe even if (you) personally don't like heels.

that heavy is at half hp so 150 and is about to take a direct pipe (100) + direct rocket (damage can't be nailed down because we don't know how far the soldier is. minimum 48 but it would probably be a bit higher because it's unlikely he's at maximum falloff range)

It's not a bad comparison in the least, it's soviet cassette futurism (which is retro), which is only about 5-10 years removed from TF2's 60's aesthetic, which TF2 itself has dipped in and out of. The leg designs are pretty much exactly the same except for the prong on the heel.

It isn't. If I am winning and getting auto-balanced it is because we beat the other team too hard and they started leaving. Therefore it wasn't a good game up to that point anyhow. The point isn't killing enemy gamers, or being told you won, it's taking people who are a threat to you and thrashing them.

Deadlock is an entirely different type of game, not sure why people are so thirsty to compare it to tf2. I get why on 4chan, but the retardation of anons has spread to the more influential retards on you tube. if Deadlock was going to kill anything it might be DOTA, as that's the valve game it's more similar to, but I doubt it.
>>
>>492819760
It started when TF2 was being left to rot and Deadlock leaked, but then Valve fixed the bots very thoroughly and obviously devoted a lot of attention into doing so (even paying jannies to keep watch) so the stupid rivalry doesn't matter anymore

shoehorning a competitve and casual system nobody asked for or wanted besides literal compfags and retarded gluehuffing niggers who thought TF2 would die if it didn't copy the Overwatch ESports model (look where it is now btw) probably wasn't the best way to integrate a competitive and casual format into the game.

And then of course, the system blew balls on release because of queue times for the replacement to quickplay and still blows balls because it gives you 1-2 rounds to play and then makes you join another server that'll forcibly die out to repopulate another, making match-finding extremely tedious and overcomplicated without dedicated servers that stay online 24/7

Combine that with the stupid balance changes
>nerfing several heavy weapons that didn't need nerfs purely for the 6's format
>buffing the wm1 class's damage
>leaving the vaccinator, wrangler, sniper's whole class, and various other cancerous elements for both 6's and casual gameplay completely untouched

And you get anti-competitive people.

>still call it boring, cringe, fake
it is all of that, it's the same 4 classes in the same fucking format on the same select maps using the same fucking shit. that's unironically not fun and is why 6's is a massive fucking failure

It’s a start and I agree with what he says to bring back but
>No mention of ad-hoc connections
It’s probably the most requested feature players want back, and bringing it back would invalidate matchmaking (because why wait for a matchmaker to queue you into a server that could be empty or almost done vs. instantly picking what you want)
None of what he mentions would fix the issue of long queue times especially if you want to play the not so popular maps (it took SquimJim 2.5 hours to just find ONE server running Nightfall)
Also fuck him I DO want the old game mode art back

I think the reason they haven’t done it yet is because the older arena maps aren’t compatible with casual and would need to be updated. This is fine for the community maps but I’m guessing Valve is too lazy to update their own maps.
Graveyard is a highly modified player destruction map since vscript wasn’t added yet, while Perks uses vscript to work

Why are so many people say DR is OP even post-rework, taking away your ease of access to cloak as the fucking spy is a really hard downside for being harder to kill

I tried using it but it just wont click with me since having far less time being invisible fucks with my typical gameplay loop for him and I cant really do much about it and I often become a sitting duck with a still charging ringer
>>
>>492909068
nah. the DR is shit post nerfs. Which is probably for the best. The DR is just a flawed concept, in my opinion.
The ambassador, however. That is a case of people insisting that it is unusable now when it is still pretty. good. I don't even think the nerf was necessary and wouldn't mind if they reverted it, but it is by no means a bad weapon.

you shouldn't expect to click on heads as a spy anyway, Diamondback is actually the really busted one, it relies on spy having to stay alive for long periods of time and be effective at your class to reward him with stored crits, difficult to pull off, but the upside is really good

what the fuck are you talking about
stun literally only exists as part of taunt kills outside of meme gamemodes (both old airblast and sandman stun mechanics were removed almost a decade ago)
slowdown only exists on the natascha (shitty crutch weapon) and the sandman (so bad that nobody uses it anyway)
every form of knockback in the game right now (besides the natascha and sandman) can be strafed, therefore allowing for counterplay
>>
>>492907953
>guillotine crits based on knockback
no, fuck off, the guillotine should never have crit combo potential ever again
>>
>>492913156
you could strafe after being stunned with the sandman and, most importantly, you could dodge its ball
you're also forgetting about the loose cannon, the scorch shot, airblast and launching your enemy with explosions. there are plenty of mechanics that limit your movement in some way in the game. the difference between them and the sandman is not being allowed to shoot.
the only reason why I'm calling all those dumbass phrases "rhetoric" is because the sandman's previous iteration was in the game for years and no one actually gave a shit or thought it was in any way overpowered. all this discouse surrounding it came after the JI nerf.

That's not a thing anymore, engis religiously defend their teles and there's always someone spawning to prevent you from destroying it
>>
>>492914198
Scout being able to do that much damage at range for free with a highly spammable projectile that uses the flare gun hitboxes (i.e. the collision box, not hitboxes) was fucking retarded. You just spam and get free crits + DoT as the fastest class in the game, it was busted and deserved to be nerfed. That being said, the sandman is useless now, so idk what to do with it. Knockback is annoying and gay, the slowdown is useless outside of cucking demoknights if the game wants to actually play nice, and giving it straight damage steps on the wrap assassin's toes
>>
>>492914718
am I taking crazy pills? did anyone in this thread play the fucking game before JI? the sandman + guillotine combo was something you used to fuck around and have fun, it was incredibly unreliable even if you were very good at it. even the Jungle Inferno page doesn't say anything about it being OP or doing too much damage, they removed the crits and mini-crits because they were ''''''''''too random''''''''''
>>
>>492914281
spawns happen in waves with around 10 seconds between them which is more than enough time for you to sap the teleporter

>>492914718
I'm surprised there's no weapon in the game that actually takes ammo away from enemies. The only weapon that sort of does this is the Pomson 6000, which reduces Spy's cloak meter and Medic's Übercharge meter.

Now I'm the one taking crazy pills. That combo is something you'd see every scout using in basically every lobby, and it was super annoying. You'd turn a corner and get deleted as a power class without even being able to react, it was not fun to play against
>even the Jungle Inferno page doesn't say anything about it being OP or doing too much damage, they removed the crits and mini-crits because they were ''''''''''too random''''''''''

??????????
there's a minimum range for the stun to even work, and even at the minimun of 1 second you barely had enough time to switch and line up your cleaver throw. it really was not more powerful than just 2 meatshots. and, again, 15 second cooldown and 2 very hard to hit projectiles.
what the fuck happened to this general? I though people were against nerfing the shit out of every playstyle, did some youtuber say the guillotine was bullshit or something?

>there's a minimum range for the stun to even work
yeah, you're not getting hit by it point blank because that's where scout is the most vulnerable, that's the problem. scout shouldn't have that damage at mid-long range
>it really was not more powerful than just 2 meatshots
except you were able to safely spam it from mid range
>and, again, 15 second cooldown
that's almost nothing when you've got a strong primary and are extremely mobile. you can be doing things while you wait for the short cooldown. something like the dead ringer for example with its comparable 20 second cooldown is a lot weaker because you're effectively neutered and useless until you get your cloak back
>2 very hard to hit projectiles.
they were not hard to hit in the slightest. the ball iirc was the fastest projectile in the game, you just had to hit their collision box, and the ball stun made the cleaver followup child's play. if anything, you are the guy who never played before JI if you lack this critical information
>did some youtuber say the guillotine was bullshit or something?

There was also random damage back in the days, but none of the "game is silly and fun" crowd are asking it back. Real solution would just be to add quickplay back so everyone can enjoy their own niche in tf2 rather than this "correct way" to play casual that we have now.

Player use statistics has almost no bearing on what you're trying to describe here. Stickies, rockets, and jarate are all commonly used because they're easy to hit and do a lot of damage. You don't see syringes used a whole lot offensively, because nobody wants to play medic, and if they do they're used to heal teammates instead. Manmelter is just plain bad so you almost never see it, but its projectile is quite easy to land.
>if they're truly easier to hit you should get hit by then more often than by stickies etc. right?
Wrong, because nobody uses them as often anymore, since the combo that was so strong was removed ages ago. Try thinking logically instead of emotionally, only women and troons do the latter.

>>
>>492948093
Headshots terminate his charge. I love stranding them on their way to me, but just out of melee reach then calmly tickling on them with the SMG to clean up their remaining health while they either panic swing at me or attempt to waddle away.
>>
>>492948093
Demoknight running the half Zatoichi actually pisses me off. Try killing one when you have a braindead team that feeds him health, its impossible.
>>
>>492949107
well sorry the map is so crampy and I got jumpscared, not my fault your pussy ass is staying behind instead of jumping him with us.
>>
>>492949107
What class and loadout are you having trouble killing him on? It's a free kill for scout, sniper, or soldier with a shotgun and or the direct hit.
>>
>>492948753
no he doesn't, because nothing can fuck over his dash
>>
>>492948975
no they don't, because he's too fast for anyone to headshot and he doesn't stay out in the open for snipers to hardscope him
>>492949107
I would rather have one than an eyelander pussy

It's called a quickscope, and I do it every game of koth on sniper. If you can't then you should practice because they are the easy mode flankers you have to regularly deal with if you want to operate independently of your team.
>>
>>492951046
Did you miss the part about the shotgun? Shoot his feet then shotgun him in the air. Repeat until he's a corpse. It isn't difficult.

Try the stock for this matchup. Bullets work better for blacks.
>>
>>492951103
he's faster than pyro, his dash puts out fire, and he can just run away and never ever engage the pyro except when ambushing and critting
>>492951285
>uh it's called a :nerd glasses emoji:
i don't give a shit, he has 235 health and a quickscope doesn't stop him, and it's not even a legitimate counter since 99.99% of people are dead before they can even do it, and they die after anyway since he still has enough hp to 1-2 shot you and theyre as fast a scout, which you arent quickscoping
>>492951457
no i didnt miss the part about tickling him with jellybeans. shooting demonights in the feet when theyre charging doesnt launcher them up idfk why. you saying it isnt difficult just outs you as a poser whos never even tried it
>>
>>492952578
A quickscope stops him dead in his tracks retard.

Unscoped rifle shots are meant to combo into your other weapons. You don't switch melee, you hip-fire + melee. You don't SMG, you hipfire plus SMG etc. So yes, you give up significant damage in all up close situations.
>>
>>492953065
I thought snipers usually just quickscopes or just bushwacka whenever there's someone close
>>
>>492953256
If a sniper only needs quickscopes he is either cheating or maxed out on the skill ceiling. Jatate bushwaka is a meme that gets retards killed all the time where they could safely have killed the same target while repositioning with the SMG.
>>
>>492952698
if it did how come it doesn't
>>492952926
we're talking about demoknight not pyro
>>
>>492954373
I am telling you the truth. If you headshot him mid charge it ends the charge. You cuck the shit out of him and get to kill him in whatever way you want afterwards.

[LIE]
>>
>>492955175
It absolutely is. Maybe you have youtuber brain and have been lead to believe otherwise, but if you played the game you'd know it mostly leads to overconfident suicide charges. Maybe the spy is threatened by it, but not much else.
>>
>>492954561
right, it "ends the charge" 2 feet from you and he 2 shots you while flying around like an utter spastic
>>
>>492955394
Nah, I'd win.
>>
>>492955351
Actually I just play the game, unlike you.
>Maybe the spy is threatened by it, but not much else.
Oh, so you mean the only case where it matters?
>>
>>492955507
I've probably played the game more than you. You don't need jarate buskwaka to deal with spy. And losing a versatile secondary to sure up that matchup doesn't make much sense to me. I'd so much rather have my SMG.
>>
>>492955767
You don't need it, but it turns your natural counter into a complete joke that will never ever kill you again, because apparently sniper's allowed to have long range instakills and short range instakills, but spy only gets the one because the ambassador was too strong :(
>>
>>492955507
If the spy's competent then he should be able to get an ez stab since the sniper's not wearing the razorback
As for literally any other class:
>2 melee swings (1.0 seconds) to kill the sniper, or 2 primary weapon attacks (0.8 seconds at most) to kill the sniper
vs
>Switch to jarate (0.67 seconds), throw jarate (theoretically 0 seconds), then switch to bushwacka (0.67 seconds), then swing bushwacks (0.2 seconds)

The jarate + bushwacka combo doesn't put sniper at an advantage unless the enemy is retarded; it's just a last ditch strat similar to praying for a random melee crit
Jarate is still busted on its own though, try using it as a team support tool instead of a personal bushwacka enabler
>>
>>492955767
>losing a versatile secondary
The Jarate is literally more versatile than his SMGs.
>Put out fires
>Assist teammates by coating the entire enemy team in a debuff that will ruin their entire push
>Combo it with the BW for self defense
Meanwhile all the SMG does is... be a slightly better pistol that you'll almost never have a use for because you do most of your work with your rifle from a safe distance.
>>
>>492956824
>If the spy's competent then he should be able to get an ez stab since the sniper's not wearing the razorback
This is a non-sequitur. Any competent sniper isn't going to hardscope long enough for a spy to sneak up on them, they're going to look around after every shot and when they're not scoped in, and they're going to be attentive enough to hear a spy decloaking nearby trying to get the drop on them.
>Just decloak further away and then approach them
Ok, then they catch you sneaking up because disguises don't fool anybody
>Just wait until they're scoped in before going for a stab
Oh wait, they only scope in when they go to shoot, then they look around for any spies, which doesn't give you enough time to apprach
>Just do XYZ
They're behind their team with their back watched by at the very least a pyro or a turtle, trying to stab them is suicide

Your example assumes the sniper has 0 situation awareness, in which case yeah, by the time they switch to their jarate they're dead, but at that point nothing will save them. The issue is the other half of them time where even if you get the drop on them and they jarate you, you die anyway from their teammates nuking your HP away with 35% more dmg.
>>
>>492956830
Maybe you play sniper as far back as possible, but I like to move. I kill so many people with their SMG it makes me wonder why more people don't use it. People like you build the expectation that nobody has it, and I get to punish people all day for that. Doing shit for my team isn't the kind of versatility I am talking about. I mean being able to kill a greater variety of enemies in different situations.
>>
>>492957291
>I kill so many people with their SMG it makes me wonder why more people don't use it.
because noscoping with the rifle is better and does more damage
>>
>>492957425
No, it isn't. You hip fire + smg

Whatever dude, you're wrong and obviously haven't tried the alternatives.
>>
>>492957284
>spy is weak if the other player knows he's there
This is an inherent + intended flaw of the class, literally git gud or change classes (I suggest pyro or soldier)
Do you have any legitimate arguments?

More than you apparently

I think sniper's charge should be removed. Total bullshit. What the fuck did I learn quickscoping for?

scout, soldier, demo, and medic should be the only classes in the game because they all allow for counterplay
random crits + bullet spread should also get removed because you can't counterplay shitty rng

The kunai should only add health if the player that is killed has themselves gotten a kill. There fixed.

>>492960936
That same life, if that isn't clear.
>>
>>492960936
The kunai should make the spy bleed for 8 seconds on a successful stab

The kunai should give spy health even when the kill is a regular shiv and not a backstab

It's silly you cant filter out voice prints too.

Oh well. Maybe you can mod the files. Erase the voice line captions in the files so that the text is blank.
