Servers with class limits and VIP advantages. :argh:
hats
A scout spamming medic while I'm desperately trying to keep a heavy and soldier alive who are in the line of fire.
Some of these have already been said, but now they're in a nice, organized list. 1. The randomness/ unreliability (drop rates, damagespread, crits, luck of enemy location at a certain time) 2. The lag compensation issues (shooting/meleeing someone but doing no damage) 3. The crappy hats (the good looking hats are okay) 4. Having a completely sucky team 4a. Having that team scream at me to go medic and then die in two seconds even though I'm healing them whereas I could have gone on an epic rampage instead if I hadn't been playing medic 5. Getting spawn camped (usually this one happens as a result of 4) 6. "Pros" who yell at [B]anyone[/B] who does [B]anything[/B] even [I]slightly[/I] wrong. 7. People who complain about the game 7a. People who complain about the graphics 7b. People who complain about how much the game sucks on XBox (Stop whining and get it on the fucking PC already!) 7c. People who hate it but still play it just to whine about how much they hate it. (I'm looking at you, Zeraxify) 8. eGo players and eight-year-olds (same thing, really), trolls, micspammers, admins who abuse hacks (sometimes those last two can be really funny) 9. People who want to play seriously ALL THE TIME. 10. People who think everyone hacks and try to get admins to ban the "hackers" (this also overlaps with eGo) 11. Nobody plays on custom maps, even the good ones. 12. Useless people using useless unlocks. (razorback, bonk, backburner, I'm looking at you) 13. The suckiness of all three item systems. 13a. The best option for getting items being to idle. 13b. Having to earn any items at all! Why doesn't valve just give everybody one of every item that can't be deleted and leave the backpack space for special/valuable items (custom items, community weapons, event hats) 14. Pure servers 15. Heavily modded servers 16. Pay-for-hacks servers Okay, I can't think of any more.
:smug: everything since the last demoman/soldier update
[QUOTE=Lijitsu;21051051]Honestly, you're missing the point too. The entire time you've been saying that you should, under no circumstances, ever say anything remotely negative. But I'm sorry, I don't subscribe to that hippy crap. Sometimes you have to say "Why the fuck do we have 4 Spies and 4 Snipers? This is a 10 man team, some of you need to go useful classes, we're getting fucking destroyed." And you know what? Every time I've said that, about half of those people have swapped to Soldier/Demo/Medic/Heavy/Engineer and we actually started fighting back instead of leaving our spawn and immediately dieing. The few remaining Snipers and Spies were able to do their job [b]better[/b] than before, because the Spies didn't have two other people screwing up and making the other team Spycheck, and the Snipers didn't have two others stealing kills and actually were able to work together to suppress the other team, instead of just scrambling to kill that one Engineer.[/QUOTE] This man knows what he's talking about.
[QUOTE=Baboo00;21054355] 12. Useless people using useless unlocks. (razorback, bonk, backburner, I'm looking at you) [/QUOTE] Razorback is something you put on when there are spys rampaging around and assuming you stick with your team its very useful. Try playing scout with sentrys up without bonk (although it needs buffs) Agree'd at backburner.
[QUOTE=GastricTank;21038490]Am I the only person on Facepunch whose favorite Engineer Hat is the Mining Light?[/QUOTE] I prefer Texas Ten Gallon.
Idling. I don't mind the random drop system, but I have my server list filtered to only show servers that have people in them, are not full, have no password, have ping less than 100, and don't use bots, and after all of the servers fitting this description show up (which usually ends up being less than 200) there are still about 25 idle servers that could damn well be used to play something fun like dustbowl or goldrush. But instead are full of people who are probably off doing laundry or sleeping or at work or something. It's a waist of servers.

"We need more offensive classes than Snipers and Spies. Would someone please switch classes?" is better than "Why the fuck do we have four Spies and four Snipers!?" Oh but I'm sorry, I forgot that apparently nothing can possibly get done without raging about it and acting like an asshole. :rolleyes:
[QUOTE=B.A. Survivor;21047771]Not knowing what W+M1 or all that other jargon means. :confused:[/QUOTE] W+M1 is basically the action of holding the W button (forward) and the Mouse 1 button (Primary Attack) while running towards an enemy, with almost no plan or strategy then being a kamikaze.

The gigantic dick who kills everyone/ ruins everything on an unsrs server.
[QUOTE=scorpion8754;21048059]Snipers. Nothing I hate more than being on a huge killstreak as scout, adrenaline pumping, hands shaking and then a sniper 100 meters away bodyshots and kills me[/QUOTE] It's almost like I'm reading my own posts or something.
Unmarked vanilla servers
[QUOTE=Dole;21024327]/rant I hate the community mostly. But the only real thing that pisses me off over everything is when I join a server and NO ONE SPEAKS ENGLISH. Its so fucking annoying, but the worst part is NO ONE speaks the same language besides like 2 people. Same thing in L4D2, i will join a server and theres some french guy team killing, a russian running ahead of everyone, and some fucktarded 12 year old. You know how hard it is to cap a point when everyones going a different direction and theres some horrid russian song blaring through the mic? The problem is that no one can communicate, and when its a team oriented game, you gotta be able to communicate and work together, and when everyone is on their own agenda or just trying to get kills and not do anything, its just not fun :( /end rant[/QUOTE] Go live in Australia. Our pings are 300 ms + anywhere that doesn't speak English, so we rarely see non English speakers. (besides the occasional Korean or Japanese, but they're rare and stay away cause they're generally at least getting 150ms+)
Auto-Aiming Sentries They are OP
Force a Nature Natascha "u gais suck". "Well, then, why do you have 2 points?" W/M1 Pyros Lack of a simple Team Deathmatch mode :( Other than those nitpicked, rarely occurring things, TF2 is the shit.

Oh but I'm sorry, I forgot that apparently nothing can possibly get done without raging about it and acting like an asshole. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE] I think there's a serious misunderstanding on both sides of this argument. You seem to be under the impression that everyone who rages, cusses, or tells their team to get their ass in gear, yells. Which they, and I, do not. Usually. I'm under the impression you're trying to coddle your team, treating them like kids, which they're usually not. So let's try this again: When I've been one of two non-Spy/Sniper classes on the team for the past 5 minutes and have been barely able to keep them from spawn camping us, and I go to change my class and see that there's only two people on the team actually being useful, everyone else is just leaving spawn and dieing on their way to sniping spot/failing to do anything as a Spy, yes I rage. But I do not yell at them to change classes. I rage at them to change classes, but I do not yell. Yelling is a waste of effort and makes you look like a five year old, and nobody listens to kids in this game. Most of the time, these people don't even realize there's so many of them. And no, that's not a reason to ask nicely with pretty please and sprinkles on top. That's a reason to tell them to change classes. Next time they die, or if they're already dead, they're going to look at the classes and go "Oh shit, why do we have 4 Spies and 4 Snipers? Better go Soldier" - or whatever - "so we've got some damage soak down there." And then, magically, the team starts doing better because one guy has no problem sounding like an asshole to get their team's ass in gear.
Scouts.
That one retarded player who comes in and burns all the enemy heavies when 6 or 7 heavies from both sides are sitting around eating sandviches and messing about. Or that enemy spy who's happily messing about with members of the enemy. And it's always a fucking backburner pyro wearing a gibus.
players with hats >:V

Any time you are just running around calmly, just walking around, a few soldiers and spies here and there to kill, then WROOOSH BBBAWM BAWM BAWM Killed by a backburner pyro with a halo, with the name .'xXxX1337PWN1997WINXxXx'.
122.7 hrs and i only got one lousy hat.
[QUOTE=xZippy;21033934]Where do I start? [list] [*]Pyros that think they're "good". [/list][/QUOTE] Stop being an asshole to pyros. You can be a good pyro if you play well and get lots of kills. You aren't a better player just because you're playing one on the "harder" classes. Pyro isn't easier, TF2 is balanced.
