If Scout's pistol were 100% accurate, it would just be a damage monster for people with good tracking. I understand that.
But I also don't like RNG. So I'm wondering how the pistol could be reasonably balanced to fit with 100% accuracy but still staying automatic so it doesn't become a smaller shotgun.

fair enough, but i do think you could have held out for comparisons. think of it like writing an essay for english... you can't praise literary works without showing off how a different work falls short (or at least that's how my school preferred it. half my english essays were gauntlets of short stories and poems we read in school)

If FUNKe were to make a "final draft" version of this video, the one thing I'd suggest is comparisons to other games. Like, we have the complexities but they can't be truly appreciated until you see how other games just... don't. Like in Paladins and Overwatch, there are no rocket jump complexities. You just press your button and Pharah/Drogoz fly upwards. That's it (I assume for OW, I haven't played much). In Counter-Strike, there is no complexity to sniping. You just gotta aim right. I'm sure there are more examples but I don't play any shooters but TF2 and a little CSGO atm.

I'm Captain Zidgel, I have 1000 hrs in tf2 gameplay (steam counts 2000 because of downtime, though)
I play pocket. i have a mic and i do communicate. i have 500 lobbies on tf2center and a handful of tf2pl pugs.

i made a small post in the Cup thread but i made this thread so it didn't get lost in all the lft posts on the Cup thread.

why are we focusing on 6s when we could be creating the casual 12 vs 12 dream team?

i like it in casual because the fixed bullet pattern means significantly more reliable damage, and the faster swap speed is a huge plus.

I don't think that sounds like a good idea at all, but you've got influence to test it out. Rent a server and try a few pugs with it! See what it feels like in practice.

Don't confuse low player base for matchmaking glitches.

It's late and I want to sleep but I'll be damned if I'm not gonna play 2 hours of matchmaking now that its fixed.

I heard b4nny say it on stream but I don't have a clip or anything. All I know is b4nny said on stream that Valve communicated to them they were troubleshooting for a bug clogging up queue times.

It's a pretty simple elo system. Wins gain elo, losses lose them. I don't think it accounts for expected winners/losers when changing elo. I'd guess Beginner is like iron/steel, amateur is high steel-silver, advanced is like silver or platinum.

tf2pl.com has gained some traction in the month it's been open. It's pretty good.
