i know i pick every class on pugchamp but for the love of god i fucking main demo stop picking soldier mains on demo over me and making me soldier
i know i pick every class on pugchamp but for the love of god i fucking main demo stop picking soldier mains on demo over me and making me soldier
I'm in a weird stage in TF2 at the moment. I obviously main demo and I'm considered to be okay at it and it's what people know me by but it's gotten boring and tedious for me. Last season in IM I felt like I was actually not improving at all. I've been playing soldier in pugs a lot more recently and I found it to be much more fun (this might just be because it's pugs and not an actual team but I digress). However I'm not great at it and I know people won't pick me (in pugs or on a team) often as a result. I don't know if I should just hone in on my demo abilities and push through the hardships of being bored or should I make the switch and prove to people that I can play soldier (probably roamer but maybe pocket).

I wish that if people dont want to hang out with me they would just say it rather than coming up with a pussy excuse

How do you still have friends to lose? You've burned every bridge you have in this game.

pandurrrI actually really hate how a lot of players (im+) shit talk or talk down on open and ugc players. Like most of the time these players may not say or do anything that bad, but these guys have a reaction of "it's a fucking no-name open player" or something to that degree. It's everywhere on the forums, pugchamps, inhouse pugs etc, where new players get yelled at. Another example would be the I understand some of the humor from the "/r/tf2 posts that make you cringe" thread, but what if those people would want a real answer, instead of shitting on them in your own circlejerk. Like imagine they see that fucking thread when checking out this website. Do you really think they wanna join a community with egotistical assholes? Fuck no. Every competitive community has these buffed up ego players but unlike ours there's are much larger and therefore can be dismissed unlike our community, which almost everyone knows is small. From the top of invite too some players shit on new ones, the same people who a lot of players in open or who are considering joining comp look up to. Then everytime a new season starts people wonder why tf there arent any open teams or players trying to play to "save the game". It's because you guys don't show any respect towards people trying to get better. In a small competitive community like tf2, you'd think there would be mutual respect among players regardless of division because you all like playing the game, but no there always has to be some ego complex involved to say "i'm better then you, so you're irrelevant" which really discourages a lot of people from playing/every trying out competitive. I've witnessed this so many times and even experienced it too, but I've never seen it explicitly addressed anywhere. Obviously not everyone does it and there are some really kind and helpful people. I really appreciate the newbie mixes that go on every night as I know it has put so many people into the comp scene (including myself). But calling people "fucking shit" or saying "it's just open or ugc who gives a fuck" does not help anyone at all.
a lot of the players in invite were a really good influence to this the last like 4 or 5 seasons just blame them lol

When people act up in this fucking game holy shit. Fake internet gangsters bro stg, like ur probably ugly as fuck with no friends dkm. Enjoy ur dead game faggots.

Also some of idiots in the higher levels of this game that have nothing in their life to live for but tf2 should end it there.

I'm mad that half of the tf2 comp players are good to the scene and the other half are cancerous and complain about literally everything but do nothing about it. Shitposters ruin threads. People are just flat rude. The only good environment for new players is Newbie mixes. Everywhere else new or bad people trying to improve are treated like shit.

All the cool dudes who were involved in cool dude things at Valve like their writers and artists and level designers and basically everyone else are (really fucking good) programmers and people who know how to make Valve more money and it sucks because we'll probably never see a game with Portal's writing or Half Life's general brilliance because Valve had some secret sauce or something and now the games people rave about are Uncharted and shit and fuck Uncharted its one of the the worst fucking games on the market because you play as a bland white dude and crouch behind chest high walls shoot and dudes with no cool gameplay mechanics like the gravity gun and this makes me super salty.
Like, at a Steam Dev Days conference or whatever the fuck it was Valve said the future of gaming was cosmetic microtransactions like hats and weapon skins and they said they don't see the point in making games that can't have that system and we saw this with Portal 2 and no one bought those hats so Valve said "Oh shit single player games don't work with this lol bye" and only makes multiplayer games. Like everyone thinks L4D3 is kinda an odd choice for a next game but it makes perfect sense because its like the last existing multiplayer IP they have that has a large player base and no cosmetic microtransactions so they're going to make L4D3 and force hats or whatever on it and then just sit bye while they have 4 distinct multiplayer games with microtransactions shoe-horned into them and I don't care because they probably won't add Payday 2 style skills into it because that wouldn't make sense and builds in Payday 2 are fucking dope.
And then they rake in hat money whilst doing fuck all for the community making them rich beyond fucking belief. Like I fucking hate Overwatch but holy shit when Jeff Kaplan makes a 15 minutes fucking video basically wanking the community off and telling them about the changes they're going to make to comp and balance changes and shit its just so fucking nice after the radio silence you get playing a Valve game. Like Blizzard stuck to no hero limit for the longest time but then they swallowed their ego and put 1 hero limit INTO FUCKING MATCHMAKING. Whereas Valve puts all their faith in fucking numbers whilst ignoring the wealth of community input like holy shit it took Valve like a year to figure out how to buff tapping in CS:GO and the solution they ended up using was just a 1.6 style gradient AND THAT'S WHAT FUCKING REDDIT WAS SAYING. If Reddit and the pros are all saying the same thing then chances are you should just do that but they need fucking numbers before they make any changes.
Valve are a shadow of the company they used to be and people need to stop worshipping them because all the artists and level designers that made them legendary have left and they just invent new ways of putting hats into games to make more money.

Also if you honestly take anything anyone says in this game seriously you probably lack social skills as in this day and age most people make fun of their friends so stop being a lil bitch and taking everything to heart. Being better at this game does not make u superior at all. I'm talking to fucking apes like slamberg and saam. Don't act sick if I can hear ur deep breathing ass over the microphone, you tripple chinned fuck

EDIT and then after the pug is over one of the retards goes "lol ban this noob" for just not being as good as everyone else... honestly fucking out of ideas as to where to go to improve my game

alright yeah fuck it I'm making a wall of text cause I like attention and stuff as much as the next guy
TF2 has been nothing but a fuck fest for me, and while I know I'm probably not even good enough for all the opportunities I've been given, I get fucked a lot so here it goes
Season 18 was my first season of ESEA. I played w/ squid squad and fucking loved playing with every player on that team. Gullywash week rolls around and I find out that meus (our scout main playing pocket) is sick of playing pocket. I'm told that I will either be playing pocket or benched for the foreseeable future. After a week on the class and a total of zero fun I left the team to play scout with Mumble Robots. We did alright in the season, getting knocked out of playoffs by Conbud is about as okay with losing as you can get.
Season 19 we fucking STRUGGLED. We never went a night without fucking yelling at each other until one night it fucking imploded in a firey explosion. I left that team the night before a match against syops to play for syops which is still the thing I feel worst about in this game cause it was shitty af, but the mumble environment was shit so whatever.
Season 20 was shitty for more than one reason, but the preseason was really bad as far as being baited hard by teams. 8k told me that unless something crazy happened I would be playing with them. 2 days later Jarrett said he wouldn't play without scizor so I didn't get to play. I was then told I would be playing for the muffin men (they got sponsored by someone so their name changed but idk) but only if muma didn't want to play with them. Muma said no. Okay, I'll play unless dflame wants to play, and then they got dflame. So I joined syops again, decide to try to improve really quickly with that team and get over zealous and shouting matches lead to kairu and I cut like 3 days before the season starts. In one of the luckiest moments of my career mustards team had a scout slot open very soon after and I was able to play with them. And then ball so hard university fucked me for the FIRST time. Throughout the 3 months I was at the school so far I played with a minimum of 200 ping constant with regular spikes to 300-400. A combination of that, a poor attitude, and slemnish being a god I'm cut in like week 6 or something.
Season 21 I basically got 0 tryouts all off season. I did get a few tryouts with dog1, resulting in saams pick up over me (a decision I still blame likos brazillian ancestors for), and a 1 scrim tryout with pie_hero's team during which they picked up split. So then I played open. And yeah, uh... that happened and it was a thing that I devoted time to for some reason.
This past season was probably one of the biggest let downs for me because of circumstances in pre-season and in the fucking "match" last night. Preseason was a lot of my fault but it was still shitty. What it came down to was an over-eagerness at the possibility of playing invite. If bear and friends wanted me for a tryout I'd drop who I had and play with them. I'm pretty sure I'd be on saams team rn if I hadn't done that. But bear did fuck me pretty hard. After my third or fourth night scrimming wrech and the team told me in mumble that they wouldn't seek other scout tryouts, but if someone really wanted a shot they might give them a night just to see. Minutes after I left mumble bear messaged me saying that they were going to tell wrech they really wanted to try ictus out for my spot, but in reality they were looking to replace wrech. After a week and a half of them flip-flopping on this decision once every 24 hours I was basically left without team options and only a few days left in the off-season. In what broking has referred to as "eh, we may as well get knuckles" I got to play with far and beyond the best team I've played with in my 'career'. Despite having fixed my internet in April of this year, ball so hard university came in fucking swinging last night for our playoff match against megaquacs or whatever their name is. On my university one of the few ports blocked is port 27055. No, I don't know why. But this is the port ESEA client uses to login its users. So I can't sign into client. And I get to watch the match from the sidelines. And, I'm sorry vaati and friends you guys are really nice people but I don't know how that match ends that way at all if I'm there to play. Badlands would have gone our way by a mile (5-4 with 2 ringers and kawa playing combo when she's used to flank? rofl) and no way vaati would have gotten away with so much shit on metalworks. I'm sure we lose to saam in grand finals anyway but it's still frustrating as fuck to have a playoff run end because of something so entirely out of my control.

Badlands would have gone our way by a mile (5-4 with 2 ringers and kawa playing combo when she's used to flank? rofl) and no way vaati would have gotten away with so much shit on metalworks. I'm sure we lose to saam in grand finals anyway but it's still frustrating as fuck to have a playoff run end because of something so entirely out of my control.

alright yeah fuck it I'm making a wall of text cause I like attention and stuff as much as the next guy
TF2 has been nothing but a fuck fest for me, and while I know I'm probably not even good enough for all the opportunities I've been given, I get fucked a lot so here it goes
Season 18 was my first season of ESEA. I played w/ squid squad and fucking loved playing with every player on that team. Gullywash week rolls around and I find out that meus (our scout main playing pocket) is sick of playing pocket. I'm told that I will either be playing pocket or benched for the foreseeable future. After a week on the class and a total of zero fun I left the team to play scout with Mumble Robots. We did alright in the season, getting knocked out of playoffs by Conbud is about as okay with losing as you can get.
Season 19 we fucking STRUGGLED. We never went a night without fucking yelling at each other until one night it fucking imploded in a [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYzPqSbDqPI&feature=youtu.be&t=699]firey explosion.[/url] I left that team the night before a match against syops to play for syops which is still the thing I feel worst about in this game cause it was shitty af, but the mumble environment was shit so whatever.
Season 20 was shitty for more than one reason, but the preseason was really bad as far as being baited hard by teams. 8k told me that unless something crazy happened I would be playing with them. 2 days later Jarrett said he wouldn't play without scizor so I didn't get to play. I was then told I would be playing for the muffin men (they got sponsored by someone so their name changed but idk) but only if muma didn't want to play with them. Muma said no. Okay, I'll play unless dflame wants to play, and then they got dflame. So I joined syops again, decide to try to improve really quickly with that team and get over zealous and shouting matches lead to kairu and I cut like 3 days before the season starts. In one of the luckiest moments of my career mustards team had a scout slot open very soon after and I was able to play with them. And then ball so hard university fucked me for the FIRST time. Throughout the 3 months I was at the school so far I played with a minimum of 200 ping constant with regular spikes to 300-400. A combination of that, a poor attitude, and slemnish being a god I'm cut in like week 6 or something.
Season 21 I basically got 0 tryouts all off season. I did get a few tryouts with dog1, resulting in saams pick up over me (a decision I still blame likos brazillian ancestors for), and a 1 scrim tryout with pie_hero's team during which they picked up split. So then I played open. And yeah, uh... that happened and it was a thing that I devoted time to for some reason.
This past season was probably one of the biggest let downs for me because of circumstances in pre-season and in the fucking "match" last night. Preseason was a lot of my fault but it was still shitty. What it came down to was an over-eagerness at the possibility of playing invite. If bear and friends wanted me for a tryout I'd drop who I had and play with them. I'm pretty sure I'd be on saams team rn if I hadn't done that. But bear did fuck me pretty hard. After my third or fourth night scrimming wrech and the team told me in mumble that they wouldn't seek other scout tryouts, but if someone really wanted a shot they might give them a night just to see. Minutes after I left mumble bear messaged me saying that they were going to tell wrech they really wanted to try ictus out for my spot, but in reality they were looking to replace wrech. After a week and a half of them flip-flopping on this decision once every 24 hours I was basically left without team options and only a few days left in the off-season. In what broking has referred to as "eh, we may as well get knuckles" I got to play with far and beyond the best team I've played with in my 'career'. Despite having fixed my internet in April of this year, ball so hard university came in fucking swinging last night for our playoff match against megaquacs or whatever their name is.
