welcome to the other side my friend. You'll like it over here~
Fortunately, valve seems to have implemented that machine learning (ostensibly, based on the amount of bans) and has the in-game report tool actually do something now. Maybe it's just me, but almost 2/3rds of the time i report a hacker, i get a "player reported was banned" message in the mild future. Which before almost never happened. The time is now for player-based anticheat efforts. Report players en-masse and they'll be banned as fast as they can make alts- a fear cheaters have since speed is VAC's main downside.
I got to give Valve credit for the improvment on the cheaters situation. Obviously you'll never be able to stop all cheating with a F2P game but the situation has improved quite a bit this year.
you can shit on the tf team for many reasons but the cheater situation is one of the few that has quite objectively improved in every way possible
Between the increased focus on stopping cheaters and Blue Moon 2018 is off to a great start. I hope they stick the landing in the second half of the year with a well balanced heavy update with interesting new weapons, a quality Scream Fortress with some of the interesting community maps that haven't shipped yet and (dare I hope) the final part of the comic.
I don't think you can say "off to a great start" if we're already in the second half of the year.
if they give us a Summer Update in July + a proper sized Winter Update like in the good ol' days 2018 will end up probably being one of the best modern TF2 years.
Oh yeah shit, I forgot there was supposed to be a heavy update. Shouldn't that have been out a while ago?
Lets wait until summer,surely it will be there soon enough

what does this have to do with tf2 again
err no jungle inferno was confirmed and thorougly hinted at throughout a complete year even valve themselves dont even know if the heavy update exists lmao
EU, Russia. I see them daily, so much that I'm at the point where I just removed ctf from my rotation. It's not a "good player" or a "smurf". Literally hackers, aimbot, crithacks. I stopped meeting them when I started playing Payload only.
I haven’t been around much as of late and haven’t played much tf2 recently (i got surgery about a week ago and have been distracted since) but if valve keeps up their signature radiosilence surrounding the update i’m sure it won’t be half as good as JI, which I thought was a step in the right direction but not all that was needed. The blogposts every now and then built hype and strengthened communication, and while i’m sure overhyping isn’t good by any means, being completely quiet in terms of larger communication isnt either.
I'm hoping whatever summer update may be planned isn't delayed until October again. Though, at this point, who honestly knows. For the first time since I began playing, I didn't instinctively expect a summer update.

TF2 is in Silver of the "Top Sellers" set in the steam sale. https://i.imgur.com/PbxTzs2.png Obviously expected given we didn't have our big boy update but eh
Isn't it in Silver top sellers because of Orange Box or Valve Pack thingy?
I wouldn´t call TF2 a dead game or anything. That said, every time I see a big update (such as jungle inferno) I am both grateful and excited, yet silently think to myself I would not be surpised if this were the last update of this magnitude ever. And I look forward to the epistle of TF2 comics #7.
Nah - it counts box /general game sales aswell. Or where do you think dota is coming from?
i want oopdate
i want taawnts more tawwwnts also contracts please that'd be nice
I want literally fucking anything
me too, i'm really sick and tired of being left in the dark it drives a mann crazy
I don't believe this is just for the Steam Sale, the page it's on says "Top Sellers - A look back at the top-sellers, most played and new released of 2018 so far". Based on that wording I'm pretty sure it's overall revenue for the year, not just revenue during the sale.
Crithacking is a thing...right? There's no way this guy is walking around and shooting a crit rocket every 3 shots.
Yes, I once played against a hacker who was playing medic and just running around trying to melee our team with his 100% crit rate. Of course the enemy team refused to kick him.
what happened to TFMV? https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/132498/31ee9104-1622-4a17-8407-e38719f3e08e/image.png
I just removed ctf from my rotation. the best choice in any context
