Stuff that Annoys you in TF2: bind m1 say "( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)" edition - Games

[QUOTE=SwiftYoshi;48631630]This "guide" gave me a bad taste in my mouth. The only good thing in it is the small ass prompt about killing lime/pink scouts on sight. I don't know what's worse about the person:[B] that he has the mentality of a 10 yo jerma obsessed nutbucket[/B] or that the self-absorbed shits at scrap.tf ACTUALLY MADE this tool a mod. [/QUOTE] One question: how did you figure this out? Also whats the deal with scrap.tf anyways?

[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;48633815]Wrong. It's a literal second chance at life, that shot you took that didn't kill him is what kills you.[/QUOTE] Why don't you equip it as well to even out the odds? Complaining about the danger shield is just dumb when you yourself can equip it. Having trouble against the danger wielding sniper? Equip it yourself. Now you both got second chances. [editline]8th September 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;48634061]The trouble with the danger shield is that in sniper vs sniper matchups it's 100% better than any other option. Having the sniper have two chances to kill you while you have only one to kill them is very frustrating.[/QUOTE] Easily counter able by equipping it yourself. Frustrating, yes but dying is even more so when it is easily avoidable. [QUOTE=Mbbird;48634658]If your sniper v sniper battle involves scoping in for more than a second then the parties involved aren't the kind of snipers that matter here.[/QUOTE] Picking situations that's in your favour is what separates good snipers from bad ones. For example, you should come forth from your corner to pick of the other sniper if you know that he is occupied trying to kill your teammates. If he is he ignoring your teammates and focusing all his attention to you, all you have to do is wait for your teammates to wipe him out, which shouldn't be hard considering he isn't a threat if his only focus is you. If he has the danger shield all you do is wait for him to be occupied, then you zoom in for a about 1.5 of seconds then go for that easy kill. No sniper in the world can have so fast reflexes that he manage to kill you in a 1.5 second while being occupied with other shit.

Uhm. When a weapon [I]forces[/I] you to do something in order to do at least something about it, it's not just bad balancing, it's bad game design.

[QUOTE=Anderan;48636800]I don't really find it too unfairly favorable to the defenders until the last point.[/QUOTE] The 2nd point is pretty bad for blue

[QUOTE=eugensiman;48638809]Uhm. When a weapon [I]forces[/I] you to do something in order to do at least something about it, it's not just bad balancing, it's bad game design.[/QUOTE] That I agree with.

Come to think of it, all the complaints about random crits annoy me for some reason.

[QUOTE=ASIC;48638902]Come to think of it, all the complaints about random crits annoy me for some reason.[/QUOTE] They bug me to an extent too. I don't like random crits, but I really don't like it when people bitch about a crit killing them every time in chat. Goddamn, we get it, crits suck, now start playing and go crit some other asshole.

It's so strong that it's banned in competitive play. Why is it banned in competitive play? Because losing uber is meant to be a real big fucking deal, being able to retain 20% of that uber at zero input on the Medic's part other than choosing to equip a passive item is an extremely large advantage, especially in situations where a trade occurs. A trade being that both teams lose their medics and the uber advantages are reset to 0%. If one Medic gets a 20% head start, it begins an extremely boring arms race between them where if one equips the Vita-Saw, the other must follow suit in order to have a chance of remaining in the running for an Ubercharge advantage. This sorely cuts down on the variety in Medic's options for that slot, as the only viable one is the one that requires zero input but pays out immensely when you compare the Medic's weight in the Medic v Medic uber races. He who has the advantage keeps the advantage solely because he chooses to equip some passive item. He who wants to use something else gets fuck all because people like [i]you[/i] think it's acceptable to have this sort of inter-player dynamic.

You're sorely underestimating the reaction speeds of people who actually know how to play the game.

[QUOTE=ASIC;48637467]One question: how did you figure this out?[/QUOTE] The "Shpee" shit is some stupid meme started by Jerma that all the 10 year olds on TF2 are obsessed with. I think even Jerma's tired of it because he's never mentioned it (As far as I know) except for in the video that started it. There's also the "TF2 creatures" shit, but that's obvious.

Not to say he never says it now, just to say he stopped making videos devoted to it ages ago.

"kick rumia hes tryhard and kills me when i conga" The worst part is that it gets you kicked 60% of the time and 90% if the server has the vanilla vote kick enabled

one time I was a demo and I kept shitting a crit sticky under a specific heavy's feet every single time he was in my face in 7 years it's the first time I actually apologized for random crits

People who feel compelled to spew insults when they kill someone from a point of significant advantage. It takes 3 people to kill you? lol scrub. Gets one kill after failing and dying 5+ times? rekt.

Goddamn, we get it, crits suck, now start playing and go crit some other asshole.[/QUOTE] I came here to post this. It's 2015, and everyone knows they're unfair. People act so indignant about it and it's really just annoying. I don't blame them for feeling cheated but their need to vocalize it looks bad.

What bothers me is it feels like whenever I get a random crit (or burst, if I'm using a minigun etc), is it's always when I'm spychecking or explosive jumping or just firing my gun for the hell of it. So rarely when I'm actually shooting at the enemy. The other day I counted and out of 50 deaths that night, 35 of them were due to random crits. It's infuriating and makes you feel completely helpless no matter how much skill you've got. Much like airblasts in their current state.

[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48644620]explosive jumping[/QUOTE] It's pretty funny when this happens right as an enemy you didn't see is trying to melee you though.

I have 50 ping but i'm lagging so hard I may as well have over 300. What the fuck?

[QUOTE=IntenseBarney;48647360]I have 50 ping but i'm lagging so hard I may as well have over 300. What the fuck?[/QUOTE] Is it little spikes where you warp backwards? I think a fair bunch of people are having this issue at the moment.

[QUOTE=Erfly;48647453]Is it little spikes where you warp backwards? I think a fair bunch of people are having this issue at the moment.[/QUOTE] No, it's massive spikes when i'm doing anything.

That's the main point of my posts. [Quote]He who wants to use something else gets fuck all because people like [i]you[/i] think it's acceptable to have this sort of inter-player dynamic.[/quote] I don't think shit like this should ever make it into the game, yet it does.

This is a thread about stuff that annoys you in the game. People are posting things that annoy them in game, such as a weapon that forces other players to use it, reducing the diversity of viable weapons. This is what the thread is for. Are you telling people to stop posting in the thread, that they're wasting their time because they can't change it? Then you're doing the exact same thing, wasting your time posting about something you can't change. What the hell are you even doing in this thread?

[QUOTE=Lurker;48647910]Whine all you like it isn't gonna get changed any time soon.[/QUOTE] Eh, that's debatable. For all we know it could be changed in the next major update. We got a huge overhaul in gun mettle, so I could see more changes once matchmaking is here

I thought I could change you people's opinion on the subject at hand to a more reasonable one (In my way of seeing it. As valve takes years to even patch stuff. Why not spend your energy doing something better instead?). I guess you could say that stuff that annoys me in tf2 is people that get annoyed at broken weapons. But I'm gonna take your advice and stop wasting my time here. [QUOTE=chandlerj333;48647985]"I don't like that cancer exists, but it does, and therefore we should stop trying to cure it."[/QUOTE] It isn't even comparable with what I said. What a pointless post. [QUOTE=Sweater;48648057]I bet you defended every single weapon including the Pre Tomislav and slapped a "Shit is like this, deal with it". [/QUOTE] Defending and accepting are two different things. I acknowledge that they were broken but it took months for them to get patched. Never used the tomislav though.

One of the rare occasions I play sniper, I get a fully charged headshot on a soldier, blood decal appears on his face, no damage done. I'm sorry game but if you're going to fucking make a blood decal appear at least decide to also deal the damage of the fucking shot.

So all of a sudden TF2 is getting 25 fps on lowest settings when it was getting like 30-40 fps on slightly-less-than-highest settings a few days ago. I haven't changed anything with TF2 or my laptop in that time. What even.
