I couldn't find a tfcl_payload thread so posting here. I really hate some of these sniper sightlines, especially with the lack of flank routes to go fix the sniper problem. Defending first especially, I find myself trying to play heals forward on the tracks and not in the enclosed hallway, and then their team pushes and has a sniper sightline into the hallway and our med is fucked.

There are a few other crazy sightlines too but the BIG PROBLEM I have is that ubered players can't stop the cart. Some real shenanigans right there, ubering in to stop the cart only to find you've actually just fucked yourself, especially on last.

this thread might be dead but sidular just in case you check it again, put some random objects around the map. i appreciate not wanting to put textures in until the layout is finalized but everything is so bland, callouts are fucking impossible right now

i wish everyone was invulnerable in pregame so i could explore the map

Bumping since this map is on mixchamp today. There's still a lot of really blocky hallways with a ton of trap spots which I'm not a huge fan of. Also since I'm retarded and don't know this map yet I keep forgetting which point I'm on when I'm on defense and all the signs face the offense

I would love to do this and help out some n00bs, unfortunately it's happening at the same time as the b4nny cup :(

i guess i might as well bump since its way down the recent threads. 2 hours till check in

rather than having that enormous block of text, you should have used a spoiler so people don't have to see it unless they want to.

[spoiler]put your text in here[/spoiler]

and it'll come out like this:

hi lft. i'm pretty solid on everything but demo but i'd play him too tbh

Hopefully these wind up being being pretty entertaining as well as informative. I feel like one of the major issues with comp right now is that there's no obvious way to get in that doesn't involve several hours of reading/watching a bunch of boring ass guides or just getting in game to be endlessly flamed. Honestly I find it confusing that it's taken as long as it has for anything like this to come out, considering that the game has played pretty consistently for years now. I mean shit, I made my own attempt at a video when I had less than a year of TF2 experience and absolutely zero editing experience, and while it didn't actually turn out to be useful for getting better I thought it really seemed to resonate with newbies. b4nny and Shounic sounds like a dream team for making something people will legitimately want to watch. Good luck!

i miss watching brad pitt farm on star and satan

also might be worth just putting bind 2 slot2 in the scout config

holy shit

rockmonkey cuz u can call him cockmonkey and pretend u did a sikk diss

faceit lives but its cups do not

every cup should be a soloq cup! i spent the whole hour in the queue for a cup today and was the only one every time i checked :(

na fam, analysis is fun

Yeah no that's fair, I haven't spent much time playing any moba. I've only really spent time watching them be played and listening to my friends talk about them. Tried to play Dota but immediately decided I didn't want to spend the time reading what all the heroes do. Also not a fan of the WoW combat system, or MMO system, or whatever it's called. I tried to appeal more to OW since I've actually put time into that one.

Still though, I'm not sure that irl sports is totally incompatible the type of choice I'm talking about. That clothing analogy was heat of the moment, but I think I can come up with some better ones. Like what if basketball teams, rather than choosing to make a 2 pointer or go for 3 on the spot, were forced to choose whether they'd only be allowed to make 3's or regular goals before each possession? Or if football teams had to choose whether they'd only make field goals or touchdowns at the start of each quarter?

I guess those are still kinda shitty, but I think they get the point across. Having a system where the items picked and heroes played cancel out the choices of the other team distorts whether the skill of the teams really determines the outcome.
