unlockable weapons were a mistake and ruined the fine-tuned balance of the 9 classes.
>>719633117Kino update You probably weren't playing back then because everyone loved the medic updateSome other class updates got hate, especially pyro's but the medic one was universally loved
>>719633117The only mistake is that they all weren't unlockable via in game missions/achievements.Weapon DROPS were a mistake.
>people still talking about updates that happened 10 years+ agowhy dont people just fix the game? they released the SDK
>>719633117it was the scout update with the stupid baseballthat tipped the game into pure circus clown mode
>>719633584every time people try to create a 2007 or 2009 style mod they inevitably add stupid bullshit like new weaponssee: TF2C
>>719633493tying weapon unlocks to achievements was a mistake I don't remember which update did it but it was the reason why achievement servers started popping up
>>719633584Nobody whining about these updates actually played back then, or even like tf2.They just want people to to think they're cool online
>>719633117Variety was fun. Mannconomy killed TF2.
>>719633117Ah yes, the fine-tuned balance of release soldier and demo, while pyro was barely even a class.
>>719633873Better for new players who want to unlock weapons than just farming for drops or buying them from the Mann Co store for 50x their actual price.Yes I know you can buy them for pennies on 3rd party sites, but for NEW players getting unlockable weapons sucks.
>>719633505>He wasn't there for the Medic updateYou'd either have to play like a complete retard (continually ubercharging Scouts hoping they'll be able to get five kills, actively avoiding killing enemies, healing enemy spies) or join an achievement farming server. The Ubersaw required all 36. It was awful.
>>719634086>playing an old online focused PvP game with item unlocks isn't that fun for new playersyeah no shit
>>719634086I get people have a completely fucking warped perspective on the game but it's crazy to me that retards think AT ALL that the Mann Co Store is an intended place for you to buy weapons and not donate to the people that made them.
>>719634229The achievements are fun challenges
>>719633873>tying weapon unlocks to achievements was a mistake>NOOOO YOU MEAN I HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME AND EARN THINGS? NOOO I WANT TO JUST SWIPE CREDIT CARD TO WINback to fortnite zoomiezoom
>>719634229Ubering scouts isn't a bad move, literally the only risk he runs is his low HP and uber negates that. the problem is that most scouts are fucking awful at the game, especially in 2008. Once you finally unlocked the kritkrieg it became a bit easier.
>>719633117Free to play is when it went to shit
