Stuff that annoys you in TF2: Constructor doesn't make this thread Edition - Games

FUCK After a whole hour of waiting to get into a server I finally get to play AFTER TEN MINUTES OF PLAYING I CRASH AND I CAN'T REJOIN FUUUUUCCCKKK

MvM is fucking stupid. The round ends, and I lose connection, That's happened twice. Valve, fix your piece of shit.

Well well. I'd rather sit this one out and go play a match on saturday or something, instead of waiting 40 minutes to crash in a server and then accusing Valve of being a piece of shit.

The update horribly breaks my HUD + TF2's MvM HUD, AND I cant figure out how to actually USE these dumb ticket things for rewards. there's no use option!

[QUOTE=Cyanlime;37266931]I very rarely see anyone but myself using the default spy watch, and when I do, they're always spamming "BUYING DEAD RINGER" in chat. :( Same with Demoman's bottle.[/QUOTE] For my Demoman, Strange Bottle > every other melee weapon in the game. I just seem to do so well with it. If they are dodging my LnL shots too well, charge in with my targe and beat them with a bottle. It's my favorite loadout.

I can't even spectate MVM. I tried on two different servers I frequent, and they both kicked me two rounds but no one else. The playercount is still 10. And after that, the lobby system is still down. EDIT: and now the item server is down, so I couldn't even use the loadout I made specifically for robot killing. Great.

Can't seem to get through to the gameserver identity servers. [editline]16th August 2012[/editline] Oh wow servers fill up FAST [editline]16th August 2012[/editline] Also, that fucking tank.

Deathonatures on MvM. Only things than kill anything quickly.

So I craft the canteen wait action slot? what about crsk? oh well, it's not that important... wait I play medic and I have a MtM taunt and using the canteen will make it so I CAN"T use the MtM taunt what the fuck

Mann Up mode. Too. Fucking. Hard.

I hate players who think that just because they have a bills hat they're automatically team captain and can boss everyone around. Bonus anger if they're wearing a buds with the bills hat, and even more anger if the bills is painted white.

[QUOTE=DatWut?;37266327]I'm speechless here. You don't use weapons for the looks if they don't match your playstyle.[/QUOTE] I think he's saying he wished it did match his playstyle so that he could use it because he likes how it looks.

[QUOTE=maxumym;37272608]Mann Up mode. Too. Fucking. Hard.[/QUOTE] I guess that's why they call it Mann Up mode

[QUOTE=Drury;37267344]Possible explanations why the robots are blue: 1. Grey Mann was supposed not to exist, Valve just liked when community came up with the new "grey" team idea. Instead, Dell Conagher was to build a robot army for Blutarch for most of the MvM development process. 2. Yes, robots would be harder to spot as grey. 3. It would be harder to code - although I see no reason to replace some of RED teams' bodygroups with BLU ones. They would technically still be RED, except with BLU suits in-game. The robots would have grey textures and technically be BLU.[/QUOTE] So giant robots and regular robots that are way different than regular players would be harder to spot if they were grey? Yeah okay

Also, lies on the mann up rewards.

Mann vs Machine. Don't get me wrong, I fucking love this gamemode and I've played TF2 more in the past day than I have in the past month. [u]But here's a few things I notice;[/u] People start punching the Tanks when they run out of ammo, especially heavies with the GRU and I even saw a soldier disregard shooting it with the cowmangler and go right to smacking it with the Zatoichi, at which point I left the server. There are enough ammo boxes that you'd be doing more damage if you left for 5 seconds and went and got some ammo instead of doing 56 damage every 2 seconds. [u]Pyros not doing their job.[/u] This is still TF2; there are still spies and you still are the direct counter to them. The game will tell you when there's spybots on the field; find them and kill them so your team can kill shit in peace. [u]Engineers not attending to their buildings or ignoring Sentry Busters.[/u] These fucking things are detrimental to your team; pay attention to them and at the very least alert your team to them via voicechat if you have it. When a sentry buster gets close to your sentry, it will stand still and arm itself; take this time to [u]move[/u] your sentry a good distance away, and then move it back. It's that simple. Sentries are more important than dispensers or teleporters, as most classes have ways to get to the front lines quickly. [u]Scouts being dumb fucks.[/u] You are one of the most useful things on your team; if you meet these conditions you aren't using the scattergun, you're using the bonk, and you're using the sandman. Feel free to use the Shortstop or the FaN, these fucking things rip shit up with just a few upgrades. Use bonk to distract giants so sentries and teammates can wail on them, or to block the way of sentry busters. Help take down spybots and sniper bots so your team can kill shit in peace, and pick up a few sandman upgrades so your team can take down giants faster. [u]Melee.[/u] Don't fucking melee the robots, you're bound to get killed and you're most likely to end up doing more damage if you run away, grab some health and ammo, and come back. Soldiers and Demomen; don't fucking use the katana. The likeliness of you getting a killing blow is very low, so you just end up being a detriment to your team for the entire wave. [u]Sniper primaries.[/u] The huntsman is 110% useless in this gamemode, so please don't use it. Grab a Machina, some jarate, and a melee other than the Shiv, and stand far back, trying to pick off as many robots as you can and focusing on giants and(sometimes) their medics. [u]Robots.[/u] Robots don't bleed, so stop trying to make them to. They are not dumb fucks; they are just as smart as you, the only different between you and them is they're on blue team, they're much more aggressive than you, and there's a lot more of them than there are of you. [u]A few final things.[/u] Giant Spamomen are some of the most powerful and destructive things on the battlefield, and the simple way to counter them is to either use bonk and get up in their faces. Or just get up in their fucking faces. They have a ton of trouble hitting people point blank, so don't be afraid to get close. Giant Heavies are killing machines, and are usually accompanied by 5 quick fix medics. Disregard the heavy and go for the medics until they are all dead, you won't be able to kill the heavy until all of the medics are dead. And then, use bonk to distract him or snipe his face off; just don't get close to him. Giant Soldiers are destructive as fuck; reflect their rockets and take out his medic as soon as possible. Spybots don't come from the front lines, they prioritize you over the bomb, and disguise as teammates so you need to watch out. You don't need 2 of [u]anything[/u]. [u]Oh, and I almost forgot to say something to spies.[/u] FUCKING PLAY YOUR CLASS RIGHT. Your sapper is the most powerful tool in existence when it's fully upgraded, it can sap an entire group of scouts making them ripe for the killing. Use the sapper on medics, giants, or large groups of normal bots and get stabbing. Pick up the armor penetration so you can do damage to giants, and please use the dead ringer, as much as you don't want to, it's so fucking useful.

"NOT CURRENTLY CONNECTED TO THE TF2 GAME SERVER" YES YOU ARE YOU CHUNK OF DICK, STOP LYING TO ME

"scanning for steam games updates" YOU DON'T HAVE TO SCAN EVERY GAME IN EXISTANCE! What's taking so long, I've been waiting 15 minutes!

In my opinion this entire update is shit because mvm is laggy as fuck and the chances of you finding a server are ridiculously small. I can't even play on a normal gamemode because the servers are so swamped with people.

Out of all the things valve could be spending time and money on, they should really focus on servers. When a major game comes out, the servers grind to a halt for hours. When it's a TF2 update, you can kiss your chances of finding a server/editing loadouts goodby.

The cow mangler only does ~40 damage to the tanks per shot when you don't have the damage upgraded (which is a waste, go for reload speed, fire speed, and clip size), and the melees do at least 64 every shot, not to mention the melees can still get random crits, with the obvious exceptions. When your gun has a "-% damage" stat, meleeing is one of the best things you can do. Not to mention it's unlimited, and oftentimes has better attack speed.

Hey there Zilla, I know you aren't connected to the game coordinator. Yeah it sucks, but go ahead and change your loadouts, so you'll be ready to play! JUST KIDDING FAGGOT, I'LL SHUT DOWN THE ITEM SERVER FOR DAYS!

The game server and the item servers are down [I]all the time[/I]. I'm sick of using stock in a game by myself when friendly bots don't even work.

I haven't been able to play MVM since it came out. And you fight reskinned Blu AI, not robots. And your entire team is Red. EDIT: Angsty pageking.

Yes, yes YES! I finally managed to find a boot camp server! Let's do this, it'll be so much fun! "Disconnected after 4 tries" Brb, killing self
