Maybe this was a good update for pub players, but for me, aside from the airblast fix it was almost completely worthless. There was a huge potential in pyro and they missed it. An lg gun with a passive jetpack would have been awesome. Also, no mm changes, no sticky detonation fix, contracts don't work on community servers, etc.

And I have to say it triggers me that they spend their time on absolutely useless things like changing the fall damage sound to a worse one. But they still couldn't change the default unreadable little red damage numbers, in 7 YEARS. It would take 20 seconds.

I was hoping for a good skill based weapon for the pyro, but the Dragon's Fury is just a more annoying flamethrower. It should have been either a fireball or an lg gun. This cloud of fire looks like shit, can't even see where it's going or where it's coming from. Not to mention in first person view the gun is pointing nowhere near the crosshair, and the flames are coming from the center of the screen, with an annoying brief white flash whenever you fire. Absolute cancer visually.

I don't want anything from you, just saying that it's funny how people here are having 20 pages long debates about how to change the whitelist to be more welcoming to new players while Valve still has a broken competitive mode in the game which instantly turns away anyone from 6s that tries it.

I'm aware of those options, but they take too much time when we just wanted to play a quick game.

Today we wanted to play some matchmaking with friends.

We start searching for players. After a few minutes the first game starts and there's an aimbot cheater killing everyone.

Okay, we alt-tab out, wait for the match to end.

The second game finally starts after 5 minutes and there's another cheater.

Nevermind, alt-tab and wait.

Another 5 minutes of wasting our time, and the third game starts. There are two cheaters running around insta-capping points and headshotting everyone as spies.

LUL. How can something be this bad? I find no words for it. I've been playing TF2 since 2008. I've spent thousands of hours on community servers. During all those years, I've seen around two or three cheaters. Then since matchmaking came out probably almost a hundred. Meanwhile people here are arguing whether or not to change the whitelist to make 6s more accessible for new players. :D You know what would make competitive more accessible? If the officially implemented 6v6 game mode worked at all :D

And this is after 1.5 years of betatesting before release, which was almost a year ago.
(btw these are the google suggestions that just popped up when I checked the release date: http://puu.sh/w0c3C/8dcc0c40ec.png)

The TF2 team is a joke. Why haven't they still fixed this? Maybe they're too busy working on the pyro update (LUL)

Well, what the hell else should we be fixed on when these lunatics are blowing people up because of their religion?

Watch this video and tell me if the guy says ANYTHING factually incorrect:

Sure. I don't really have a problem with killing animals for food if it's done cleanly and painlessly, and if they had an okay life previously (weren't crammed into tight cages, had food shoved down their troat, etc).

That's the thing, I never said that, and I don't think that being a vegan suddenly makes a person better than others. You are twisting my words. All I'm saying is, I consider being a vegan a positive character trait. The same way that I consider smoking to be a bad trait. That doesn't mean I consider all vegans to be better than all smokers.

It's completely understandable. Most people do it because they are against animal cruelty. Buying milk and dairy products still supports animal farms where animals are often kept in bad conditions. How hard is that to understand?

Again, that might be true, but humanity is beyond the point where evolution would noticably take place based on people's choice of diet (I'm talking about modern countries, obviously). Since even dumb people with the unhealthiest lifestyles live long enough to reproduce, evolution doesn't weed them out, and this point becomes kinda moot.

I agree with that. I don't think that vegan is the healthiest diet there is, I just don't like it when people think you can't be healthy without eating meat.

That article is about evolutionary benefits, it has nothing to do with meat eating being healthier than veganism or not.

I'm not a vegan, but in this particular aspect, they are morally superior, no? Overall they might be a shitty person, but come on, how is not supporting the slaughter/torture of animals not more ethical?

I can think of two well known players who are this delusional.

I'm in a similiar situation now. My dorm building is being expanded by another block, right outside my window about 10-20 meters away, and the workers start drilling and hammering shit at 7am. But at least I have a proper internet connection.

One thing I can say is, if you have a busy semester coming up, you might want to skip next season. Same thing happened to me last season. It sucked because my team had to constantly use a merc and even when I did play, I was bad without practicing and I kept worrying that I should be studying instead of playing right now. I also have a small ass desk, it's about 80cm across and it's uncomfortable to play like this. In the end I didn't enjoy the game at all.
