I don't know if that will work,when ever I change my dxlevel I start tf2 then check my options to see if it worked.
Then I exit the game and remove "+mat_dxlevel #" from my launch options.
If it still changes back to DX8 it has to be something wrong with your options,are you using any special config files?

Was very popular in British primary schools around 1996.
Now I feel old.[/QUOTE]
It was pretty popular in US schools as well. That and some game that involved a Raptor with a jetpack, the name of which escapes me.

Nanosaur, but that was only popular because it came on Macs by default.

Soldier? I thought some wizard lady roommate of his killed him.
I watch an engie die, have his sentry destroyed, then promptly upon respawning run right back to where he was before starting to swing away at a sentry that was no longer there. Hightower is one hell of a drug.

Yeah, I read it in the papers, and everyone knows what the papers say is true.

He couldn't accept that his faithful sentry was gone. The Engineer became an alcoholic, hammering away at memories of the past that he longs to relive, but are just always out of the reach of his wrench.
Someone on TF2 told me i'm an amazing scout and I should try getting into competitive TF2.
That just made me quite happy. I might actually try competitive now, who knows.

The devs twisted around some of the names, so consider those names to be noncanon.[/QUOTE]
TBH we never got the Heavy's last name, only his first (Misha being short for Mikhail) so as far as we know Cherny might be his last name. What did they use for the Medic?
cherny being his last name is as canon as the name they used for the engineer: Dell Bradford.

We already know Engie's last name. We don't know Heavy's last name.
that was the joke. dell conagher is his full name, not bradford. none of the names in the game are canon at all.
Wait is that a spaceship game featuring TF2 characters? Sign me up!
Are there any good servers that consistently have a nice amount of players? I'm sick of valve's sv_pure bullshit.
[QUOTE=IntenseBarney;47912192]Are there any good servers that [I]consistently[/I] have a nice amount of players? I'm sick of valve's sv_pure bullshit.[/QUOTE]
That's the issue with community servers in the EU being starved of players - even the decent ones left are mostly only full for a few hours in the evenings at best.
Try German Headquarters (German obviously, but you can use English too), they're the most active community server with a rotation these days.
There's also Triggerhappygamers, Hampshire Heavies, Kritzkast, Pelipurkki, Schlachtfestchen, Grumpy Old Gits, Who Dares Grins, Dirsec (custom maps)... But a lot of them will only fill up on evenings, as said. Some of them, like KK, seem rather empty too, haven't played much in the last couple of months. Definitely join all of the above Steam Groups, so you can be notified of when they're trying to get filled up with regulars.
Dunno which ones use sv_pure to be honest.
Played a round of MVM last night, and one of the snipers was headshotting sentry busters. I thought that was patched so it was impossible?
Did valve just make the head hitbox on the sentry buster microscopically small, and the guy was aimbotting so he was able to hit it?

Sentry Busters have regular Demoman hitboxes, so you can just shoot near the spike on top of the bomb and it'll count as a headshot. I don't recall them ever patching it.

You're thinking of the Holiday Punch. Sentrybusters are Demoman code-wise.
Sometimes I wish the Pyro had gotten changed to something more generic like Riot Control so we'd get more varied weapons like a freezethrower or a pressure washer or even chemical based stuff without people going "fuh fuh fuh muh pyrotechnics".

I don't think being the Pyro is the reason why that hasn't happened. I mean, the Demo has a shield and sword.
Is there a script to have the minimal hud, but with regular sized health for you and your teammates? I like the more noticeable overheal effect on the health bar, but the smaller size of everything else.
Sometimes it's hard to tell when you've lost control of your life, but when you're up at 1 AM reading bad tf2 fanfiction to a friend so she'll fall asleep over mumble, it becomes very easy to realize just how low your life has gone
Found out something interesting with the rocket jumper in mannpower yesterday.
If you have the rocket jumper or sticky jumper equipped, not only can you not take the intel, but you can't reset your own intel either. I find this mildly amusing, given the fact that the grappling hook gives you 10x the mobility of the rocket/sticky jumper.
I just need 35 more weapons (12-14 less if I don't count the expensive reskins) and I will have all the normal quality with a "gifted" tag on it.
Probably funded a fortunate soul for the summer sale as I finally took interest in a pro killstreak kit.
I just need to sell the Smoking Unusual Napper's Respite when it becomes tradable tomorrow so I can buy games.

yeah that was a real important nerf
we can't afford to have CTF not be a endless stalemate shitstorm.
especially when the jumpers are free kills when caught up close.

Sticky jumper being nerfed like that is OK. Not my favourite thing, but you could pretty easily win maps in under 5 minutes, without losing a means of self-defense. Nerfing the rocket jumper like that is just stupid though, all you've got left is the shotgun/Bison, which, while both powerful, are just not enough for Soldier to break through defenses with.

encouraging CTF games to end faster was not a bad thing at all. I don't get that part.
and like I said, if you manage to get past sentries or aware people with jumpers, you fully deserve to move that flag around.
