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

you shouldn't need to apologize for bodyshots nor should anybody complain about it

probably not the good thread for this but since we're on the subject when sniping, how many of you actually try to move your crosshair upon your target, or do you just point at a spot and wait for people to run into it? It's hard to collect info ingame. I do wonder what's the majority doing though

It's hard to collect info ingame. I do wonder what's the majority doing though[/QUOTE] Depends on what skill level, range, and accuracy % we're talking here. Twitch shots are difficult to pull off and are inconsistent to register, but are more reliable as a player's twitch aim strengthens. They also are much much easier to pull off at range, where aim is less-frequently jarred and targets are effectively moving more slowly through the Sniper's field of view. Hell, sometimes there's also tracking involved if they want to charge a shot to ensure a kill, although not as common a practice. But I've observed that most of the better snipers will wait for someone to move into their crosshair, while simultaneously moving the crosshair into a place where a player will likely be and then letting the trigger-pull be the seal on the deal. It's something that's tough to describe because it's become second-nature at this point.

Position crosshair roughly over their head, then snap in the direction they're moving and click. For sniping snipers I use the same thing except I scope wherever and then snap to their head. Not sure how it works but it does.

i'm just too impatient to aim for headshots. sometimes i'd try to predict their movement, but it usually ends in a streak of holes in the wall in the back.

The best advice I've been given for playing Sniper is to not worry too much about it. If you get all finicky over headshots and charging, you're going to start overcompensating and missing all the time, so just take the shot when you can.

The only thing I see all the time is hard work because of the fact they jump around like rabbits as if it's Quake, ADS then bang bang, rinse and repeat.

Retarded god damn shit stains who come in, see a demo, and go sniper, and the even stupider fucks who vote no on kicking him because "he might be a good sniper" with his store rented machina, razorback, and tribalmans shiv. Fucking christ I want to stomp some fucking throats in right now.

You are basically saying that, like Left 4 Dead and Dota 2 before it, Team Fortress 2 is starting to show the fruits of what happens if you allow the community of a videogame to "regulate" itself?

The rest of the Infected team all had like 800+ hours each on L4D2.

Shanking the back of heavies and soldiers as a spy like 4 times without backstabbing them. It seriously looks like bullshit when you experience it, but it's even more outrageous when you took the time to record a demo, switch your character to 3rd person, and see the 3rd person backstab animation. The 4, f******, times. There's a serious problem with me.
