This is so fucking true, I've been barred and kicked from about as many lobbies as I've played cause I don't have enough previous "experience"

just realized asia said their should be a 30 lobby limit on better level lobbies, well shit I'd be barred from all of those with my 23 played...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SNkW0GFtC8 "Frag Video" aka a bunch of clips where you whiff half the shots and get only 1 scout pick. I have a feeling a good portion of some of the new comers are going to have better aim and consistency than you.

I've never used it, and I wouldn't use it unless it was an official valve plugin. The fact that this also exists and NO leagues use it means it would be -borderline- pointless to use.

Honestly, not really. Technically TF2 has 66.66 ticks per second, setting it to 67 insures you get all of them. Having it set to 66 means you would miss 40 ticks out of 4000 (about 1 minute). Even then that's not entirely true cause having it at 66 you still tend to deviate above 66 ticks per second. Going by what net_graph 3 says assuming it's telling the truth you're probably actually missing about 10-25 ticks every minute. Even then you're not actually "missing" them they're just not there to interpolate off of. Technically it's better, but it really shouldn't make you do much better after all the difference between 66/s and 66.66/s is about 150 Microseconds (between each tick).

Got to no.6 on the leaderboard as rick james and the no.7 guy and i was both being sandwiched by no.3 and 4. So I just suicide feed him in order for him to envelop both of them ROFL.

I'm addicted, I've been playing as "I feed", "I feed memes" and "I feed DOGE" get to about 300 mass and then just suicide into some meme blob and split into it if I have too.

It's also quite funny when they realizing what you're doing cause they'll actually protect you from other blobs so you can feed them.

Money Orange

No you missed the entire point of what sneaky said. Shotgun Soldier is both faster and more importantly LIGHTER than a heavy. Meaning you will be juggled for higher and longer requiring you to aim more while surfing rockets / rising / falling. Which is very intensive practice on tracking based aim.

it depends on a whole host of things. I'd specifically need to see all the changes you made.

Also I'm planning on making a 2nd part to my GFX config for people who use Single/Dual Core systems, due to the influx of new players who may or may not have Quad Core CPUs and may or may not know if they do.

This isn't my CFG lol, he even uses commands the decreases performance even after Chris proved that they improve performance.

He even still has chris's comments about the improved framerates...

Examples
violence_ablood 0 // framerates on -most- pcs are higher with these on
violence_hblood 0
mat_diffuse 1 (this is the default setting, I don't have it in my cfg, doesn't change FPS)
mat_autoexposure_min 0 (fairly sure this gets disabled with bloom and hdr off)
mat_alphacoverage 0 (fairly sure this gets disabled with bloom and hdr off)
mat_bloom_scalefactor_scalar 0 (doesn't matter when you don't use bloom lighting)
mat_softwarelighting 0 ^
mat_viewportscale (this command is in there twice with different settings)

their's several more but that's what stuck out the most for me

Baby Face's Blaster

I like this option alot^

Soda Popper
Fix the +reload glitch
lower the reload speed by about 0.1s - 0.2s
No Fall Damage
make the hype by a small speed boost (+10% ?) and higher jump (+25%) rather than the 6 jumps
use other stats

Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol (should be completely rethought breaks the fundamentals of item guidelines Scout primary weakness is his low HP and shouldn't be given more without a significant tradeoff)
NEW STATS
+40% Fire Speed
+10% Reload Speed
-50% Clip Size
-33% Ammo Pool

Goal I had in mind would be to make the pocket pistol a true clean up sidearm, but with limited capacity in taking down heavier or full hp targets.

The Back Scatter
Remove the accuracy penalty, at first. After that not sure.
use other stats

Flying Guillotine
Remove the Crit stunned enemies stat
after that balancing this weapon is hard cause it's not really useful after that unless you increase the recharge speed, but then you run into an issue that enemy players could be subjected to permanently bleeding. Unless you make the bleed timer not reset when hit by the guillotine which I have no idea is that's plausible.

The Atomizer
This weapons is only sparingly used in HL, it provides an excellent utility to scout but with the cost of taking damage. Also greatly depreciates scouts ability to build uber. Either a nerf or buff to this weapon would break it or make it worthless.

Wrap Assassin
Remove bleed effect
Add Mark for Death (about 5s or similar to the GRU or Rescue Ranger after switching weapons duration)
use other stats

Other weapons that are rarely used.

Short Stop
Remove Ammo Pool share with pistols
use other stats

Bonk!
This weapon is basically meaningless in a competitive setting as small as 6vs6 and is still rarely used in HL and pubs. Needs to be rethought

Crit a Cola
readd Scout takes mini-crits
+15% movement speed (currently 25%)
use other stats

Sun on a Stick
add
-66% Afterburn duration

Fan O'War (Weapon needs a rework or something interesting applied to it)
Possible New stats
-90% Damage
+20% from health pack pickups

Idk about this one, but honestly this weapon is really dumb as it is

Sandman
I'd reduce the stun duration by 25% accross the board and no 100% stuns.

Weapons that are fine right now
Force a Nature (might need a very small buff)
Mad Milk
Boston Basher
Candy Cane (possibly a small reduction on explosive vulnerability)
Winger

-edit-
updated my engi post here http://teamfortress.tv/post/425997/weapon-balance-discussion

Right but they do also update antiquated maps that where in competitive example de_train
which ctf_2fort, ctf_turbine, cp_gravelpit do meet that criteria. I doubt ctf_2fort could be changed to be enjoyable on a competitive level but turbine has potential. I already enjoy gravelpit so I think that one is fairly likely. Also yukon, coldfront, etc.

One of the things I'm most excited about and that really hasn't been mentioned, that with the new match making we'll probably see a bunch of either new maps or map improvements. Keep in mind cp_gorge, ctf_turbine, ctf_2fort, ctf_doublecross, cp_foundry and other maps that weren't really suited for competitive before might get completely reworked.
