Stuff that Annoys you in TF2: MS Paint Crocket Edition - Games

[QUOTE=printme;48837822]So I'm playing soldier, I see a pesky sniper and wanted to chase him, but I ran into sentries. He starts saying in chat "kek, you seemed really desperate to kill me". "Desperate" wasn't the word I'd have used to describe it, I say "sure, yeah, whatever". He says I'm "salty" and he went pyro to reflect my rockets and started focusing me. I asked him a few times what his problem was but he just typed "kek" in chat whenever he killed me. After he got a domination he taunted and left. Uhh, GG, I guess? I don't know why people like this play this game, it's like they are only playing to piss people off.[/QUOTE] people who use kek like that unironically are not gonna make it far in life

I'm surprised i didn't see it more but blsu second spawn on borneo is easily campable tiny room with one door.

how to become death himself equip boots+tide turner+eyelander, get 4 kills with it and change to sticky+nade

[QUOTE=LittleBabyman;48839460]how to become death himself equip boots+tide turner+eyelander, get 4 kills with it and change to sticky+nade[/QUOTE] I've always found the Eyelander retaining its head bonuses between loadout changes kinda broken/problematic. Of course, getting 4 heads in a row without dying is only reliably possible in a pub and versus unskilled opposition, but since Valve servers are getting more and more predominant, and the introduction of the Tide Turner and the buffs to Booties made it much easier to go headhunting on such servers... [B]A lot of people probably wouldn't like it, but I believe any loadout change mid-life to a different primary or secondary should take away the Eyelander's heads. Sorry, if you're gonna take advantage of it, stick to the loadout you've chosen until you die and respawn.[/B] I know other unlocks and loadout switches mid-life don't work that way, but I feel like equipping a melee that allows a Demo to gain considerable bonuses with melee kills should be a binding, conscious decision/choice of playstyle. You either go with a shield + pills or shield + Booties choice and stick to it (much easier to get successive melee kits with, but you sacrifice the potency of a sticky launcher) until you die, or you go with a riskier pills + stickies + Eyelander combo that is much harder to get multiple melee kills with and comes at a price of -25 hp without any shield resists. Allowing a skilled Eyelander Demoman to go Demoknight, get some heads on the inevitable few bad/mediocre enemies, then switch to stickies and reap the major speed and HP benefits for the entire life is pretty broken. It's one of those questionable weapon designs that grow in power immensely during one life with successive kills on unaware/unskilled opposition, only it's potentially worse than most, because it greatly strengthens (large health bonus, big speed bonus) a class that's already very powerful at stock level for a downside (-25 hp) that's only somewhat relevant until he gets 1 melee kill (and not relevant much with a dedicated pocket Medic) and/or until he switches back to stickies with multiple head bonuses. At that point, they're just a stock Demo++, thanks to the randomness of most pub teams, enjoy fighting him if he's good, especially with a pocket Medic. And unlike some other newbie-destroying things like the Phlog (which has a big downside/weakness (no airblast) that is always in effect and exploitable by experienced players), a 4-head Eyelander Demoknight that switches back to the GL+ SL combo is just straight-up much better versus everyone on the server until he dies. Though you rarely run into people using this strat on pubs, I really don't think it should work that way. Allowing an already skilled guy to feed on some incompetent Snipers and Spies on your team for a minute, get some easy heads, then switch to the traditional explsoive loadout and be a ''stock Demo on steroids'' that's much faster and more durable than the class was designed to ever be is a really negative experience. Air Strike is kinda in that territory now, as well.

Bloody fucking hell. Now I can't even connect to a server without crashing. TF2 runs fine and all, I mean I can still go to the Mann Co. store and look at items, but I can't connect to a server. At the last bar, it crashes. No "hl2.exe has crashed" message even. It flat out crashes. Is anyone else experiencing this problem or is game trying to tell me to uninstall TF2 and play another game?

I was playing some MvM and it connected me to a Valve server. For some reason it played 30% of my custom sounds but the rest were blank, it didn't even play the stock sounds

I only replied that I was removing a threat, after which she started a votegag - I said I didn't intend to talk anyway (I am completely silent in games for 95% of time) and it passed. After removing the threat of me talking back, she ranted a bit about the hardships of not having a penis in videogames and how I was a bully (gibus crowd there didn't seem to care though). Up to that point, I had no idea tumblerinas played tf2 :vs:

[QUOTE=Ripper Roo;48841704][B] hardships of not having a penis in videogames[/B][/QUOTE] How was that relevant? :v Eh anyways, I think the worst part was that the votegag actually passed. Can't believe they listened.

[QUOTE=Stric_Matic;48834298]Since I rarely use shields and never was any good with them, plus I didn't keep track of changes/developments around them - is the issue in question that all 3 shields have been doing bash damage at any range for years (despite only the Screen being supposed to have that ability, according to stats), or does ''bash n' slash'' in this case mean that you get a guaranteed melee crit after any shield bash connecting, regardless of charge distance? Might sound ignorant, but I've never bothered to test or pay attention to that much, and I do remember many folks saying that the shield bash and the guaranteed-crits-only-past-a-certain-charge-distance mechanic doesn't work properly, or that all 3 shields are capable of what only the Screen is supposed to be able to do. Can you shed light on that, Tarts?[/QUOTE] What the others said, shields are supposed to grant a crit swing only at the end of your charge, when the screen was added it caused a bug where it counted collisions as the end of the charge as well for all shields, its why its easier with the screen because its intended with the other shields its a side effect. Its not intentional because you can look at the descriptions [QUOTE]The Splendid Screen Level 10 Shield +20% fire damage resistance on wearer +15% explosive damage resistance on wearer Can deal charge impact damage at any range +70% increase in charge impact damage Alt-Fire: Charge towards your enemies.

Taking damage while shield charging reduces charge time. Alt-Fire: Charge towards your enemies.[B][U] Gain a critical melee strike after impacting an enemyat distance.[/U][/B][/QUOTE] Honestly I would rather demoknights shields to get reworked entirely to be built around the original tide turner rather than the charge retardge. Flying around the map like a [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10tiWNnY3jA"]blade wielding ballerina of death doing mid air roller coaster maneuvers[/URL] has far more depth than wm1 with a sword because you can eat damage all day long. , targe would get a movespeed penalty to compensate for its heavy resists, and the tide turners new gimmick would be the full recharge, while the screen would grant more reliable picks. This would also come with some other tweaks like increased knockback while charging, and reworks of multiple demoman melee weapons, ideally it would flesh out the demoknight as his own unique subclass with its own skills and weaknesses rather than just a worse alternative to stickies. Oh also tide turners recharge would be back to charge kills only. But most of the time valve balances to supercasuals who think spy and pyro are OP so its likely to never happen, at least I annoyed them enough to make the charge drain less braindead.

[QUOTE=AMedicalSpy;48841056]sv_pure 1?[/QUOTE] Yeah, but it still should have played either the default sounds or my sounds, not just play a chunk of them and not play anything at all

[QUOTE=mralexs;48842697]Yeah, but it still should have played either the default sounds or my sounds, not just play a chunk of them and not play anything at all[/QUOTE] sv_pure 1 will cause sounds to glitch out if you have sound mods. In theory it should just play the default sound but sadly it doesn't quite work out so well.

Why are most, if not all, of the scrap.tf staff and donators bronies I've hardly ever seen any bronies in the actual game but the moment I go on scrap.tf for anything I see ponies everywhere.

I often see comments/posts saying bronies are the worst because they shove it down your throat because they have a pony avatar. Firstly, if seeing a 50*50px image counts as shoving it down one's throat for someone, I don't envy that person. Secondly, by this logic one could get angry at all fandoms because someone is bound to have an avatar related to them. Maybe pony avatars "pop" more because they are more colorful and it makes the confirmation bias worse?

Gee it sure would be great to be playing the Invasion update if this computer would just stop lagging constantly. I swear trying to move right now is like trying to swim through mud.

Just saw somebody use the term "pub autist". I've never wanted to throttle somebody more.

[QUOTE=Ona;48847675]Just saw somebody use the term "pub autist". I've never wanted to throttle somebody more.[/QUOTE] What is that even supposed to mean? Today someone asked something like "were people autists before the invasion update too?" in chat. I have no idea what the fuck these people are on about. It has come to the point where I've disabled chat, I only caught this message by accident when I checked my invasion coin level up message. Disabling chat is pretty good, I completely forgot about it and I was wondering why everyone was so chill.

I don't think people are trying to make fun of disorders, I think it's just the current cool word; people who call others retarded seem to think that they are cool because of how edgy and uncaring they are. A while back I was playing as medic on cp_gorge and there was a spy who kept calling the team medics autistic because we were blowing his cover by healing him... while in spawn during setup time. [editline]7th October 2015[/editline] I think the assholes of TF2 have regular meetings where they discuss the next cool insult. "So I think we should start using mongoloid as a pejorative in 2015 Q4." "What are you talking about Johnson, we already did the schedule for this year, didn't you get the memo? Are you autistic?" "You are a retard." "Retard was Q2!!" "Oh, right, sorry, I think I mixed up my notes..."
