Streamers seen to Finally be able to play the game without chances Still no news of a Summer update, No news about the last issue of the comics, and so far no news about anything Valve-wise. DDOS protection for valve servers and other improvements are rumored to come, but nothing official has been announced. >> https://discord.gg/RPfDhvc TF2 Facepunch Discord, feel free to join! << https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/132767/6b040aaf-a96d-49f0-85c2-1c27762c52af/image.png
the smell of a fresh thread, hell yeah
I saw two people who were clearly not bots and not doing anything suspicious get booted from valve servers last night for issuing too many commands into the server. Sorry if this has been talked about already (havent been keeping up with the old gc thread), but this seems kinda potentially problematic/annoying. Does anyone know exactly how many commands you have to put out for it to kick you?
Au yeah. New thread with a fragance of quality. I have seen just one cheater since the Blue Moon update (on a community server). I hope they finally gave up.
Going to repost Hell-met's video into the new thread, because I thought it was an interesting post: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGiQ9vLLQEY I'm impressed, I can't believe a secondary other than Jarate will be viable in MvM Sniper's arsenal now.
Why use anything but five Gas Passer Pyros and a Medic in MvM?
ASIC attempting to make the new thread titled "Random Crits are good" has gotta be definitive proof that he's trolling at this point a bunch of regulars people actually like got banned earlier this year when will the mods ban the obvious, actual troll?
Metaru, you can get rid of the survey in the OP. The person that can view the results (Kiwi) has went to do other things, so it's not really any use for the moderators anymore. Generally the FP Server situation is kinda grim; General gameplay sessions see very little people at peak times, and even when we technically quite literally paid people to play, server still wasn't really full. FP TF2 just doesn't seem to have the community size to warrant a Server, eh?
Jarate hasn't been the only viable secondary for quite a while now. The Cleaner's Carbine makes Sniper actually useful against tanks when combined with the Bushwacka. And ever since they added recharging for the Razorback, I like to use it on Wave 666 sometimes, since there's so many Spies and I'd rather spend my time getting explosive headshots off than taking a couple precious seconds to swap to and from the Jarate. I actually found the bug in that video on accident that way, though I thought it might have been a sneaky MvM buff for the Razorback. Pretty interesting that the code is so weird that it's actually somehow a bug.
the best thing is jarate is so op it's still miles better
so falafel sandvich when?
Just came back to TF2 after finals, and what the fuck, you get kicked for using crosshair switcher now? Got kicked with error " too many commands " or something. This sucks.
wait, even without a script? I compulsively and constantly switch between my knife and my gun on spy, this would suck
https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/132767/2d86095c-07ea-47bb-baac-d93ac67d9570/input_tf2.mp4 As i mentioned in OP, you will get kicked if you use scripts to issue way too many commands. the TF team isn't going to mention how many are "too many" to avoid script kiddies using it as a reference, but its clear is way past anything you could do normally with either a keyboard or even a mousewheel.
They just need to nerf the gas passer's explosive upgrade. There's no reason for it to be doing 350 damage for as cheap as it is to maintain. That, or do away with the explode on ignite entirely, and give it the slowdown upgrades like milk and jarate.
"sv_quota_stringcmdspersecond" = "40"  - How many string commands per second clients are allowed to submit, 0 to disallow all string commands
Wow they didn't even try to hide it.
Guessing 40 is little below the line before the server can't handle it.
Ah new thread smell. And a vastly superior title too i might add.
Right now, you can donate three keys here or £5 here to receive a charity medal for Rally Call 2018. Apparently, we'll see what it looks like soon.
@Hezzy can you close this thread and reopen the one I made? I do not think my thread had a valid reason to be closed, so we should go back to it. The thing is that the reason you gave for closing my thread does not make much sense in context of the other threads. >At least put more than the bare minimum of effort in. Use the above thread. My thread's OP didn't have much less effort put into it than the V6 general chat thread (which was only closed due to the new 1000 post limit). So it does not make sense to close my thread for only meeting a sort of standard that was ok for several months. In fact we go by that reasoning that my OP had too little effort put into it, then really both of the new threads should have been closed. This is because when my thread was closed, the opening post of this thread didn't really have more effort put into it than my thread.
why are they locking the emporium thread? 120 pages doesnt seem that big yet
Max is 1k posts now.
Which is only 33 1/3 pages at 30 posts per page. Oldpunch was 125 pages/5000 posts.
shutup nobody likes you nor your posts it's summer very soon though. school's almost over, that's the giant peak you're looking for
Flaming, not called for even though asic is rather annoying.
That's not flaming by a longshot. Low effort OP. Literally just took the previous one and omit most of it. Stole the banner from the previous one despite it clearly being made specifically for V6. Then failed to even embed it properly. Shitty random crit bait despite basically everyone telling him to fuck off and stay in the thread designed for containing it. Somehow still doesn't understand what he did wrong despite it being spelled out by numerous people, Hezzy included. It's an anomaly he hasn't gotten himself banned for being so stubborn and thick-headed despite him telling people to try to report him (and on numerous occasions). Telling him that no one likes seeing his posts is really rather mundane. If anything it's just a callout.
Alright what the actual heck is wrong with you. Nobody gives two shits about how important you think your opinion is, which only you value astronomically more than the fallacy ridden/uneducated nonsense it usually contain between your actually pretty funny posts. I'm particularly pissed off because as per usual, you just HAD to bring your brand of stupid out of that dead crit thread and into literally the first page of a new MUS, insulting the mods and whining in public instead of messaging hezzy through DM like everybody else. People come here to talk about TF2 on their otherwise limited leisure time, not see threads devolve into flame fests because individuals use the place for their own petty validation.
Tbh I try to be nice on forums, generally don't respond to annoying shitposts or say things like that directly to people. TF2 activity here has slowed down, shame, but not unexpected from all the questionable changes.
I'll thow in some coins to anyone willing to do a banner.
