[QUOTE=qubestf2;53021492]Takes about 4 hours for me to finish a tour, even if you get 1tour peoples. Are you playing Two Cities?[/QUOTE] I meant one mission in a tour of two cities.
[QUOTE=Zadrave;53021465]Team comp reminders do absolutely nothing because in the end everyone just wants to play their mains or refuse to listen to others, just look at MvM or Overwatch.[/QUOTE] The thing is, if you rely on random players to make up your team that you don't know. You don't really have a right to get mad in a sense. If you really wanted to win, you would drop randoms altogether in competitive formats and find people to play with regularly and make up a team. Hell, find more then six players in the off chance one or two can't make it. Doing this will make comp significantly more enjoyable in the long run. It's funny too, I say this on other game forums and I can't believe people bitching about "well, I shouldn't have to do this". I just tell them to enjoy losing at that point, because they aren't taking "competitive" serious enough and honestly shouldn't even be in comp with that mindset.
Fuck pyro and fuck the people who main him.

to be frank i'd auto vac-ban anyone impersonating any of the bots/hack chat messages.
[QUOTE=qubestf2;53021521]"People are the reason why Pyro is so broken, It's totally not the devs fault for propertly not fixing the class."[/QUOTE] Yeah, you're right. People are the reason Pyro is broken, who do you think made these changes? A computer?
[QUOTE=casass;53021520]Fuck pyro and fuck the people who main him.[/QUOTE] This is partly why I'm going to continue to play Pyro. The salt is glorious.
So pyro mains are a bunch who enjoy the anger caused by their class being laughably overpowered and lap up those unskilled kills? You aren't giving them a very good rep... [QUOTE=casass;53021520]Fuck pyro and fuck the people who main him.[/QUOTE] [U]Remove the phlog from the game. [/U]

[U]Remove the phlog from the game. [/U][/QUOTE] Laughingly overpowered? I think they're still weak lol. It's actually giving me more enjoyment in the game running as Heavy as they're super easy to deal with on him. More so if they run that Jetpack so I can pin them to walls. Also, Nah @ Phlog being removed... Make in MvM only, as it is still the worst primary for pyro even with new tools to get around like the jetpack. But don't touch my favorite Flamethrower ( well, it and Backburner ) for MvM... Also, I honestly will say if "removing a weapon from the game" is the only way you'll be happy with a game change, I won't be able to seriously take any of your suggestion serious again. I don't think anyone should take you even remotely serious if that's the best you have to offer at all.
I would play Pyro more, he's my favourlte class, but we already have so many.
[QUOTE=casass;53021585]Suprise suprise, the furfag is a pyro main. Atleast you're honest about it.[/QUOTE] Probably gonna be your 3rd ban within 12 posts. Why are you even trying to come here just to shitpost? Attacking other users does not make your opinion valid.
I don't see the "Pyro counters Scout" bit as much as it's being talked about (and please do not post the flamethrower problem list video for the umpteenth time, [I]please[/I]). As long as you keep yourself out of their flamethrower range, you can unload all of your scattergun shells to the Pyro from a safe distance and kill them. Hell, I am even running the Back Scatter for the sake of giving myself a challenge, and it's still pretty doable to outrange and poke the Pyro until it dies. Granted, I am running the Sun-on-a-Stick more often in pubs because that extra fire/afterburn resistance is nice and has saved me a few times, and I'm often not willing to trade the Pistol for the Mad Milk because of preference, but it's not completely unplayable or anything.
That reminds me, people seem to have a stigma for niche weapons, and never want to use them. I absolutely love running the classic on sniper because for whatever reason people get really angry at me using it. Not only that but it's a really nice in between of the huntsman and stock. Definitely a fun weapon.
Do you only play the game to make other people mad?
I can only really enjoy pubbing with dumb weapons/strategies. revolver sniper, noscope classic, etc. Played the game for so long so many ways it's the only way left to get my fill.

But now it's a huge risk to do that and people don't like it. But yeah, your now being punished for getting into Pyro's killzone. I might of had a problem with this, if it weren't for the fact that scout should have no issues keeping outside of the Pyro's flamethrower range at all. If your getting stuck in close quarters, I would also say it's still your fault. Either s/he baited you well or your not playing intelligently enough and just blindly running around corners.

I can understand that...
I love The Classic, it's one of my guilty pleasures to use every once in a while. In a pub which I used to frequent, once I started using The Classic, another sniper in the other team would switch to it and we would have duels with the Classic and it was exciting and a lot of fun. It has a few issues, though. The "hold and then release the button" for shooting feels really wonky and there's been lots of times for me where shooting at something results in no damage, even though the tracer is literally touching them. It should be one click for starting the charge, and another click for shooting. It also needs some button (like reload) to stop the charge instead of just having to switch weapons or shooting altogether, which would make it more usable. But oh man, when you headshot somebody close-range and then they explode into a shower of gibs and blood... it's so satisfying.
[QUOTE=riki2cool;53021675]Do you only play the game to make other people mad?[/QUOTE] Believe it or not, no! I love trading, playing MvM, and playing casual with friends. It's just that the people who get easily angered at tf2 is hilarious to me. It's a silly cartoony hat shooter who has people congaing out of spawn and funny voice lines. Usually if I am getting annoyed at tf2, something funny happens in game that usually cheers me up, either the silly ragdolls or the usual relaxo/guitar engie. I mean I know it's not the nicest thing of me to do, but to me it's the equivalent of throwing a candy land board game in a fit of rage. To me this is the last game I'd get annoyed at. Most of the games that are pushing esports, THOSE fill me with rage. TL;DR: I'm a casual scrub who likes the randomness of TF2.
Had someone in casual wait purposely for imbalance to join my team and try to kick me (it was successful because idiots). This was before he told me to kys because I kept killing him with backscatter in scout vs scout. I'm sorry but if you can't kill me when I have 4 shots + inaccuracy penalty vs your 6. You got a problem... No amount of shiny bright pink circling heart unusuals will make you any better.

[/QUOTE] I feel like it's an acceptable change. Scout is mobile, versatile, and deadly, to the point that it's considered one of the most overpowered classes in the 6s format. Pyros being deadlier in their flamethrower range, while still being outranged by Scouts, makes them less of a joke class and it helps that their flamethrower isn't some splash-damage explosive weapon which you can now aim directly without having to lead the flames. This means that, if you get close enough as a Pyro (which the Scout won't let you by any chance, due to them being faster and such), the damage they inflict is probably deserved. Granted, the flamethrower still needs a few fixes, but Pyro is in no way overpowered, just merely annoying considering how often they're seen in Casual.
[QUOTE=qubestf2;53021456][url]https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/7ni2rp/the_new_flame_particles_are_a_blessing/[/url] This is why I pretty much envy this class now. Instead of making Pyro not a w+m1 class Valve made it purely w+m1 class. It's fun to get killed by a dead pyro while you have 50 hp.[/QUOTE] There is a problem highlighted in this clip, but the Pyro killing the Sniper instantly is not it per se. As a light class in this game, you are super squishy and need to be on your toes, a Pyro ambushing you like that should kill you 9/10 times. The fact that the Sniper keeps taking full flame damage after the Pyro dies and no particles touching him is the real problem. This shouldn't be a thing. He would have defended himself with the random 360 huntsman headshot otherwise (which arguably takes less effort as it doesn't even require proper positioning like Pyro) and could douse himself with the nearby water or jarate and there would be no karma for a whiny reddit post.

[QUOTE=Blackavar;53021801]So 80% of the gaming community only finds enjoyment in.. bullying? I mean, I enjoy winning and having a good time. I guess I'm in the minority.[/QUOTE] I think it's more along the lines that it feels that way sometimes in game. But it's actually much lower then that.

It's not nearly as bad as you are making it out to be.
