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

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;35534067]Whenever I play engineer, there always happens to be a pro-spy on the other team who saps my shit instantaneously and backstabs me. I've had little practice as Engie, and that ain't helping.[/QUOTE] It's even worse when you're a competent engy and go out of your way to hide your sentries in little hard to reach places, and they STILL find you. It hurts most when they are using the YER. The worst when they don't even have to stab you and a crit rocket/sticky/grenade gets you and they follow up with a sap.

[QUOTE=GastricTank;35532927]The fact that instead of making new counters on already existing weapons, they're making us use Strange Parts to count things. Some parts, such as buildings destroyed, airborn enemies killed, or # of [class] killed are unnecessary and therefore should be only available as an optional attachable part. However, reflects and headshots seem like something that should be tacked on without the use of a part, as they are core functions of the weapons that can use those abilities, much like how the Wrenches also count sentry kills. Just anything to get more key sales.[/QUOTE]Not to mention it's annoying to uncrate a part for a non-compatible weapon. Or the fact that at this point, you can have a Hale's Own Flamethrower with 0 counted reflects since they're separate.

Yeah, playing Engineer against a good Spy can be really hard. If the enemy is any good there's really only so much you can do by yourself. When ever I'm a non-Engy, my first order of business is to help any Engineer get set up and try and pay attention to their stuff when they aren't glued to it.

It's difficult to play engie with a competent spy on the enemy team but it makes it so much easier having a friendly pyro that spy checks and unsaps your shit.

Those hackers that only seem to pop up when I'm truly enjoying myself on a server. You know the ones, the kind that zoom through the map as a brass beast heavy and change their names constantly when you try to kick them.

Worst I see is a few Snipers with very suspect aim. This does remind me of the time that a couple of heavies were on a server where I was admin who were speedhacking and aimbotting while screaming very loudly over the mic. Being the asshole that I am, I did everything I could do to them aside from banning them. They were screaming about "admin abuse" over the mic and it amused me greatly. After like twenty minutes of that I gave them noclip and turned them invisible. They got bored very quickly after that and left. Good times.

Greedy (and rude) traders in general. One shining example my friend just showed me. > [url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/1249120[/url] And then there's this comment on his profile. [img]http://i.imgur.com/j2O6r.png[/img]

Ah, fuck guys, I leave for a few days and Rad gets banned? Fuck! Anyways, how whenever I airblast a rocket it goes way off course. I just can't figure out the science to that damn thing. Help.

Fucking Steam Trading. At the moment it's just fucking horrible trying to trade anything with it. I was selling a Coupe D'isaster to some bloke called Shepard, and the Steam Trade crashed like 20 fucking times in a row before finally working. Good god do I hate Steam Trading now.

Yep. But there's no fun in that now, is there?

the fact nobody ever plays CTF/CP_Well anymore. have some edited lyrics to express my disdain (edited from Vera/Bring The Boys Back Home from The Wall) [I]Does anybody here remember CP_Well? Remember how we said that, "We will cap again, Some sunny day?" Well! Well! What has become of youuuu!? Does anybody else in here, feel the way i do? *drumbeat* BRING. THE MAAAAPS, BACK HOOOOME! BRIIING THE MAAAPS BACK HOOOOME! DON'T LEAVE THE SCOUTS, ON THEIR OWN, OHHH NOOO!

How when you're playing pyro it is definitely you're fault (Because you're shit mind you) when anyone on your team dies from a spy. So many times someone go "Man Reds do your damn job and spy check!" while I'm halfway across the map, usually busy with, oh I dunno, the map objective.

[QUOTE=Drsalvador;35544203]the fact nobody ever plays CTF/CP_Well anymore.[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://tf2.wireplay.co.uk/mapimg/cp_coldfront.jpg[/IMG] Is it just me?

Coldfront used to be my favourite map but then a server that played it 24/7 was taken down and I couldn't find another one with decent ping. I still play it with bots sometimes...

We need a bit more Arena/CTF maps. Payload and Control Point have been in the spotlight for too long now.

I haven't seen a Mountainlab server in ages.

I just got back from a 2fort classic dm match where a demo spent the entire time just coming at me from nowhere with the targe and eyelander..... HE would literally appear from nowhere.

Join a full rotation server, geez. Whenever I'm on Well is played at least once in both modes and Mountainlab is occasionally seen due to the massive list of maps you have to go through to reach it.

A while ago some guy on doublecross criticized me for backing away from a Heavy/Medic combo asking what I was doing. Soldiers are supposed to fight, he explained. Meanwhile I had 15 health. And the Heavy still had his full overheal. And I was dealing with another enemy behind us who was actively fighting me. And the Heavy and Medic had crits. But whatever, sorry I didn't go beat them.

When 125 HP classes think they can run up to a Soldier/Pyro/Heavy and kick the shit out of them. Also when people think dicking around and shooting at ubered enemies does something.

The term 'Sweets' Can't you just say "if you accept this offer I'll throw in some extra good stuff?" Saying sweets makes you sound horribly underaged for some reason.

I'm sorry I'm not always behind you or around your sentry to make sure that you aren't getting backstabbed or sapped but you know, there are a few friendly medics scattered around and about 2 other sentry nests in equally good positions that I'd like to pay some attention to.
