>>729729741zoomers are the only ones still playing TF2
>>729729741I wish they didn't but they do. If I had it my way nobody under 25 would be allowed to play
>>729729741zoomers don't play anything besides minecraft and roblox
I'm a zoomer and I still play it. Quite cruel they made a game where so much can happen it gives it near infinite longevity and basically abandoned it.
>tf2fags insist the game is for casuals>meanwhile actual casuals say the game filters them
>b4nny is still playing
>>729729741>>729729803>>729729849>>729729897>>729729832vro really think his uncslop something we give a fuck about lmao
>>729729895It was for casuals in 2007. After 20 years literally every server has at least one frag god with 10k+ hours that will solo the entire enemy team
>>729729989when we say "zoomers" we mean whites, when we say "mixed race low IQ teenagers" we mean you
>>729729832Anyone above 25 should've grown out of the internet already, unc.
>>729729741they're busy playing fartnite and gooning to the qt characters frfr no cap
>>729729741Irrelevant shitter that was never good in the first place. Everyone shifted to the better games like apex, rivals, and valorant.
>>729729741I booted it for the first time in like 13 years yesterday and almost every server I went on had retarded kids talking on their mics
>>729730076Some truth to that but I also think even going back to 2007 people were pretty bad at judging the game by how it looks when saying it's casual. It's not as though tf2 didn't immediately have its share of quake veterans who would hop on servers and dominate. It's not as though people insanely good at sniping didn't already exist via counter-strike.The real problem is valve started making balancing decisions regarding the competitive scene and let "git gud" become a valid response to any complaints made at a casual level.
>every hero shooter tried to be tf2>they all failed miserably>valve decided to break its legs and abandon it>somehow tf2 still survives>valve made the steam deck>valve made artifact>valve made half life alyx>valve made a botched source 2 port of csgo>valve made dealock>valve made a kill to cs skins money laundering>valve made a consoleall this bullshit and neglect yet the king still stands tall, proud and unbeaten

I hate compfags so much.BRING BACK OLD AMBY
>>729730485Balancing around top tier players is not the issue, its balancing around the small map pool that compfags exclusively play. Yeah scout is pretty damn powerful on 5CP but nerfs to bonk make him useless on dustbowl or 2fort AKA where 90% of matches happen
I'm 23 and I play TF2. You, OP, the indian, does not. Here's your (You), curryjeet.>>729729741
>>729730729fuck that. bring back the loch n lode. soldier gets his bullshit direct hit, comp fags ruined a good thing.
>>729730863Soldier is too hard to play, they should increase splash by 300%!
>>729730821The oldest zoomer is 30. You're a zoomer. So am I, and probably 90% of 4chan
>>729730821>I'm 23>You, OP, the indian, does not.Well that puts a lot of the shitposting about indians in perspective. Ironically also meant to say "do not", not "does not".
>uncs still think their garbage game that spearheaded cosmeticslop is something to be admired
>>729731130BASED
>>729731130I know you're baiting but anything after TF2 is just that but everything you purchase is locked to your account forever instead.
behead all unctroons
>>729730485Sure they existed. I played in 2007 and took a hiatus from gaming around 2012 or so. It's a completely different game coming back to it in 2020. Elite snipers rattling off headshots are everywhere. Eight out of ten games has one or more of them. Bhopping hitbox exploiting facestab kunai dead ringer spies are fucking everywhere. There are a handful of spies who still use stealth but most of them are dog shit. I've played with precisely one spy since coming back, one, who still played the normal stealthy way, and who was really good at it. He was actually a joy to play with, not annoying at all, because even though he was dominating me, there was actual gameplay involved with trying to detect and avoid him, not just getting randomly removed from the game. High level demos it seems are barely using sticky traps anymore, they can just rapid fire stickies with perfect timing and detonate them midair right on your head. Pyro is either OP with uber phlog or nerfed to shit otherwise, with afterburn being completely useless, you can be actively burning a cloaked spy hearing the sound effect and they can still vanish before your eyes and extinguish within a split second. So yeah those elite level players existed, but they did not dominate the overwhelming majority of matches the way they do now.
holy yappachino
>>729730123Indians found a buzzword made by black people and now they have to relentlessly spam it into oblivion.
>>729730618>every hero shooter tried to be tf2I fucking wish they actually tried to be tf2. At best they just copied the worst parts of tf2. If they actually tried to be tf2 there might actually be a possibility they would identify the problems tf2 had and surpass that game.Instead we're left with a game that isn't so much standing "tall, proud and unbeaten" as much as it is standing as a frustrating reminder that if you want to play a game remotely like tf2 you're stuck with just playing tf2 and dealing with all of tf2's bullshit. Because no one in this industry actually wants to make a tf2 game that fixes the problems tf2 has.
>>729730123Show hand with timestamp, I know you won't dare to do so. Kumar.
>>729731353>Pyro is either OP with uber phlog or nerfed to shit otherwise, with afterburn being completely useless, you can be actively burning a cloaked spy hearing the sound effect and they can still vanish before your eyes and extinguish within a split second. pyro is completely viable in most maps because of airblast and weapon switching faggotry, you're retarded
>>729729741i know its the game that popularized free to play gambling lootbox bullshit while you retards clapped over the poisoning of the industry
>>729731353>High level demos it seems are barely using sticky traps anymoreThat's a good thing.
>>729730772>Balancing around top tier players is not the issueIt is when it lead to definite balancing problems at pub-level, like what happened with heavy.
How the fuck do you even aim stickies, I just fucking cannot spam it's too hard, I'd rather fuck around the map with the jumper and loose canon.
>>729729741we deadlockin unc
Zoomers are only one who started "nerf sniper" fever.
>>729732128LOCKA
>>729731785NTA but pyro is at his essence a flank class. He gets absolutely fucked in any map set-up that gets overly bottlenecked or spammy which a lot of the asymmetrical ones tend to be.
>>729732238Wtf I love zoomers now?!You point and click faggots can just go play Translorant
>>729732238Generation Z wasn't even born when people first started complaining about snipers in online shooters.
>>729732415In KoH pyro is absolutely broken. Although good pyro players are fucking cancer to play against in any map.
>>729729741It's funny how no one has any sense of self awareness anymore and that this board is populated by 40-50 year olds perpetually bitching about the young people
>>729732470gen z started in like 1995 - 1997
>old losers seethe over 30 year old mengrim
>>729729741How many times do we have to have this conversation. ZOOMERS ARE IN THERE MID THIRTYS! THEY WERE THERE WHEN THE GAME WAS P2P!
Its a shame all the new cosmetics fucking blow for the most part. The undisputed kings are the old ones, and so tradefags raised the price too much for the good looking ones. Who the fuck is going to pay 10k to have a classic halloween hat?
>>729732526Gen Z is people born 1997 - 2012. (So some Gen Z's weren't even born when tf2 first released).
>>729732547>retirement home>90 year old losers seething about the 80 year old zoomers for ruining vidya
>>729732714It's Millennials who are in their mid-thirties (some in their early forties). Gen Z are currently either teens or in their twenties.
>>729733004true, that's why you should specify you are talking about late zoomnigs or early alphies
>quickplay full of idle bots that fill up lobbies>only "good" servers in server browser are uncletopia class limit nocrit sweatfests>gold rush died because of tf2 youtuber dramaGenuinely clueless here, how the fuck is this game still popular? Is it really just a stock market game or is there a secret underground society of people who still have fun?
>>729733139In any case the vast majority of Gen Z weren't even born when online shooters first became a thing and snipers became a really common thing to complain about in them.
>>729733154>gold rush died because of tf2 youtuber dramaQRD?
>>729729741it deserves to be forgotten since it's filled with third world trash
>>729733154How the fuck do I filter all those trash UGC servers with their fake ping AND player count (they're full of bots)
>>729733367There's a lot of confusion surrounding Gold Rush because the devs made a lot of subjective decisions in favor of "restoring the atmosphere" of the game's early years, rather than simply rolling back to how the game actually was back then. Choices such as:>mini sentries - disabled>engies moving buildings - enabled>demoknight items - disabled>old sandman - enabled>autoreload - disabledBecause of this "interpretation" rather than an actual reversion to the game, youtubers started complaining and the game has since nearly died off. Maybe another anon is knows more can explain better, but I think this is retarded
>>729729741>/v/ shills so called ""classic"" version of tf2>is a piece of shit, full of bugs, made by trannies, no classic at all and dead>it happened TWICElmao
>>729734230>mini sentries - disabled>engies moving buildings - enabled>demoknight items - disabledThis is pretty common in "old tf2" mods. It's a general consensus amongst most people that moveable buildings was a really good addition to the game to the point that no one wants to remove it just for the sake of having "old tf2". This does result in such mods creating a version of tf2 that never actually existed where moveable buildings is in but more controversial changes that actually either predate or happened in the update like demoknight or mini sentries aren't in the game.
>>729734617Oh I totally agree, Gold Rush at launch was incredibly fun and I agreed with the decisions the team made. I'm just buttblasted because it died off due to people whining too much. TF2 players in 2025 are really afraid to have to press a reload button
>>729729741I remember when it became f2p that was hype for every broke 12 year old like me
>>729732238I hated snipers ever since day one though, their fag class is the whole reason I play a fag class in spy the instant I see one pop off and keep killing them until they switch to pyro, after which i can swap to heavy and be content with a mission well done
>>729734617>>729734869You either make it old tf2 or you don't to be honest, picking and choosing what newer features get it and what ones that don't is retarded
>>729735301>making actual game design decisions is retardedAsk yourself whether you're more interested in making good gameplay or making old for old sake.
>>729735404>old for old sakethis what people want not yet another homosexual balance mod
>>729734869>TF2 players in 2025 are really afraid to have to press a reload buttonDidn't think my respect for tf2fags could sink any lower but it happened.
>>729735629casual game, deal with it faggot
>>729735629AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP MEEEEEEEEE
>>729729741zoomies are the only ones playing TF2 and they fucking suck at it which is why i stopped playing 6 years ago.
>>729735610>this what people wantNah even in tf2c the most popular servers ended up being the custom weapon servers adding wacky shit to the game.
>>729735829Mod faggots have no sense of balance.
>>729729989You ain’t black nigga and if you are you a stupid nigger
>>729729741I am 19 and have been playing for 10 years. I fucking hate this game.
>>729733154>Genuinely clueless here, how the fuck is this game still popular?Basically everything you said is wrong>Matchmaking is completely playable>Uncletopia is shit and nobody likes itAnd the greater TF2 community has no interest in autistic >PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF FUCK, BELIEVE WE'RE TF2 OLDFAGS PLEASE OH FUCKTF2 forks because b4nny literally exists as THE posterboy that no matter what time you started playing or for how long, you aren't immune to having terrible dogshit opinions about TF2.
>>729736117I must have had some shit luck last night then, all I wanted to do is play some dustbowl and nearly every quickplay lobby I got into was swarmed/soon to be swarmed by idle bots. I got a couple decent games inbetween but shit sux
>>729736117Also there is literally nothing stopping anyone from firing up a TF2 server other than their own lack of real friends
>>729734230Thats retarded it died off because it didnt do jack shit to differentiate itself from Live TF2, you might as well just not use any of the items they disabled and you're essentially playing the same game. Iam fine with it dying because we dont need anymore playerbase splintering the less the better.
tf2 could be fixed if you just made casual like a regular old pub and removed all of the stupid retarded matchmaking faggotry and restrictions
>>729737186Matchmaking in no real way has any impact on how you get into and play games on Valve servers.Arguably map votes over rotations did way more damage
>>729737503I'd say remove all of the meet your match shit
>>729737041>you might as well just not use any of the items they disabled and you're essentially playing the same gameThat's nonsense. Just because you're not using something doesn't mean your opponent is not going to use it either.Really all of these tf2 mods are either going to die or remain extremely niche at just a handful of servers because none of them are actually trying to be better games than tf2. They either chase this notion that bringing back old tf2 will fix things or they try adding a load of new shit that don't actually fix the game or deal with its problems. Or you get something like Open Fortress that does something completely different but not a completely different thing people would like more than actual tf2.
TF2 could be fixed if you built a time machine and went back to September 2007.
The real question here is, is Heavy really fat? And would they consider his physique "fat" by 1960s standards?
>>729737563I'm sure you would.

>>729729741What are the best servers for pic related?
>>72973095190s zoomers (for clarification, born in the decade retards) are a little different than those born 10 years after them. At least THEY know what TF2 is and knew of it before it became F2P.
>>729729741you go on a skial trade server right now and there will be a 9 year old on the mic. this has been tradition for the past 2 decades
>>729729741>Coworkers start talking about vidya>So what do you play, anon?>Uhh, TF2>TF2? People still play that? I remember playing that silly game in high school...>They continue talking about newer releases
>>729738765this. zoomers born after 2000 or 2001 don't know what tf2 or half life or even what portal is. what's even sad is that they have no clue what vhs tapes are yet they put that "aesthetic" on their shitty tiktok edits because they love retroism or whatever the fuck they call it. fake nostalgia for something they were never alive for. i thought millenials who nostalgiafag a lot were annoying but these zoomers pretending to grow up in a time they never experience are 10x more annoying and it pisses me off. yes i'm mad.
>>729729741>TF2 videos on Youtube>Can get several millions in views>TF2 playercount>60-70kWhat causes this?
>>729738895did you tell them its because youre gay and like playing it with your trans friends?
>>729731245Which is better than some argentinian kid trying to scam you out of a thirty cent hat
>>729739108Youtube lies about it's metrics, and even the debatably "real" metrics also include shit like people falling asleep with youtube on on a smart TV or literal infants with tablets.
>>729729741>zoomers don't know team fortress 2it really seems like anyone past the age of 30+ just make shit up in their heads and think its real
>>729739220Like I'm sure people here can put two and two together about some annoying faggot on youtube who gets 6mil views a video screaming about how nobody is actually playing tf2 while conspicuously his server has been empty for like 5 years.
>>729739342Millennial senility has become an epidemic.
>>729729741>zoomers don't know team fortress 2They definitely know it since every meme gets immediately remade with TF2 charactersDo they actually play TF2? That's another question
>>729733004>muh american generational terms1995 - 2009 zoomiecopeth seethitesh

The irony of oomerposting to call anyone else underage.
>>729740616It's 1996-2015. 1995 are the last millennials.
>>729732714How many times do we have to tell you thats how the slang settled. Zoomers are the young, boomers are the old. Dumbass fucking newfag.
>>729729741>implying tf2 isn't comprised heavily of gen zdon't care, tf2 threads are comprised of>shitposting nignog /vg/lets and underages>people who think certain classes are op: soldier, sniper or demoman(lol) despite the fact that scout sweeps as the best clean up and mid range class with the highest denial factor in the game for dm potential>tourists who don't play the game>shitposters who don't play the game>eceleb watchers who I don't care about>complaining about eceleb servers being good and wanting vanilla based gameplay; comp's always there for that need sweeties>/vg/niggers, again, who're underaged subhumans who need to be banned on sighttf2 threads are made up of people who're underages, barely play the game and get their jists from everywhere but themselves, these threads are as good as twitter/politicalfag threads which should be to anyone's indication of what that means, tf2 should've died a long time ago but doesn't because of how flawlessly well made the 3rd party content-sphere is.
>>729742414>ZOOMERS ARE IN THERE MID THIRTYS!No they're in their late 20's at this point man

I like to help people in games. I can't play single player these daysSo I go medic, or fill in where necessaryIt feels like I'm doing something to help the bros win oneif there's a better game to scratch that itch I would switch over I tried runescape with the idea that I could give people gold or something but I couldn't get into it
