fair enough, that sounds reasonable :)

that would probably require some kind of plugin

i can never tell if stuff like this is trolling

*does he not know there is a server browser in tf2 itself?
*and it has a Favorites tab?
i can't imagine he's not aware of this.
nonetheless, he took the effort to make a thread/script like this, including IP addresses and all

???

yes and no.. i mean, even after 'fixing' the colors, they are still pretty lousy compared to a lot of other monitors.
thing is, you really shouldn't get this monitor if you value coloring over refresh rate and latency.

yeah, lightboost isn't too great. i expected some CRT-shit after all the hype, but was pretty disappointed.
it's nice for desktop use though, browsing, watching movies and that kind of stuff, but not so much for gaming.

nonetheless, i'd definitely recommend the asus if your aim is smooth gaming.
i went from a high-ish latency 60hz monitor to this, the difference was unbelievably big.
so so sweet.

i presume his post was more about lowering the risk of getting your shit stolen. the average thief is probably more likely to steal a bag from a car, rather than a bag that's on someone's back.
besides, if there's no bag in your car, that's one reason less for someone to smash in your window.

wow.
just a bunch of guys wanting to play some video games,
now in some foreign country going through all kinds of shit.
fucked up :(

if there was a good list of changes wanted/needed for specific maps, then any mapper would have something nice and clear to go off. for example (high level) comp players just dumping their thoughts on maps that are currently not in the map pool, but could be in there after some changes to the map.
would just creating a thread for each map be a start? i bet i'm not the only one who's willing to take a look, if there's people helping by saying what exactly needs changing/fixing.

this is more or less what i ran into. i wanted to make a koth map designed for 6v6, optionally with 9v9 in mind.
but after a playtest, almost no feedback was helpful or relevant. it was a1, and most of the critique i got was aimed at the looks of the map..

so i entered the tf2maps-chat on Steam to talk about it, but after i mentioned competitive, they were just dismissive and unhelpful.
and i guess can't blame'em, most of them probably just want to make and support pretty maps.

anyway, i didn't know where else to take the map, so the project just went to sleep. tf2maps didn't seem reliable if you specifically have competitive in mind.
which is a shame because i was having a blast, and all i really needed was a few pairs of objective eyes, looking through the 6v6-glass.

nice room. slick setup. holy fuck those backgrounds.

definition of man cave, pretty jealous. grats (bitch)

it can help a lot if the shape of your mouse syncs with your preferred method of gripping your mouse.
i perform better with something small like the WMO or FK2 (relative to a G400 or Deathadder) because i have a better grip with those mice. lifting up my mouse is a nuisance for me with bigger/ergonomic shapes and my performance suffers because of it.

am i still at risk with cl_allowdownload 1, but cl_downloadfilter set to mapsonly?

posts above pretty much sum up the pros, cons, risks etc.
you might as well try it out, though. if you can find it somewhat cheap but you end up disliking it, i'm sure you can just resell it and lose only a few bucks on it.
the shape is weird, yeah, but who knows, maybe you'll actually like it

i'm not sure you really want/need it that big.
here's a potator pic i made a while ago of the XXXXL, which is 1200 x 600 or 47.2" x 23.6":

(orange area is about 50cm x 40cm, or 19.7" x 15.7")

as you can see, i might as well have gotten a smaller one, since now a portion of the mat isn't really utilized.
it's very comfortable, though! so if you have enough deskspace, i'd definitely recommend a big mat.

yuki confirmed polish?

unless seriously rich, i don't see how anyone could justify purchasing this..
not even if the response time was way lower.
but i guess it's a good indication of what's ahead of us in terms of monitors?

you got to be a troll
