I honestly prefer viewmodel_fov 75, as long as they don't force fov_desired anything under 90º.
MM was fun though. I played a map on CTF_doublecross (a map I've never played) and we barely lost 2-1 after our 100% useless engie (saying in chat "(TEAM) ill camp in spawn" like it's a strategy) pinged out and another player was AFK for half the match. I ran scout and teamed up with a random quick-fix medic and it made CTF extremely easy if you had any DM at all.

I know competitive CTF is a bad idea and generally not fun, but the time I had on doublecross was pretty great. I suppose it definitely was lower-level game, but scrambling from offense to defense with a team actually using mics wasn't all that bad.
If it was on turbine, however...

Is it normal that the matchmaking button doesn't show up anymore when you're not on a stress test or have a beta pass? I thought you'd be able to see the menu and rank etc, although not playable.

Anyone know if the results of stress-test games actually affect rank for people without beta passes? I lost a few because of crashes (not sure what caused them, either).

I'm guessing you can use mat_dxlevel after you start the queue. I was able to change to dxlevel 81 while searching, but I wasn't able to fully connect to the server (not sure if related or not. Might have to use mat_dxlevel once in the server).

Was anyone able to bypass the viewmodel_fov limit with crosshairswitcher?
Edit: Yeah, I was definitely playing with 110 viewmodel_fov yesterday.

I tried to enter the queue in dx8 (with and without -dxlevel 81 in my launch options) and it wouldn't let me; I also couldn't do it by launching in dx9 and using mat_dxlevel 81.

Accidentally abandoned a match because my friend invited me to a party
What are the downsides to being low priority?
And my game froze when it said "rejoin"

you have to have someone with dx9 invite you
if one person with dx9 invites 5 people with dx8 then the rest of them can play in dx8, it only checks the dxlevel of the person who is making the lobby
