6s mixes with friends and faceit pugs. Likely playing on a team next season so hopefully also scrims/matches

Alright sorry my bad. I misunderstood what you were saying. I'm too used to people referring to the dev team as Valve so I figured you were talking about the TF2 team :)

Yes. Yet the TF2 dev team consists of like 3 or 4 people. The TF2 team must be underfunded.
If the TF2 devs get plenty of resources to work with they'd be able to hire more people but they don't.
They all worked overhours for multiple weeks when working on MyM and it still is a mess so they clearly don't have enough manpower for this thing, right? So why don't they just pay a couple of people to help them?
Are you confirming what I was saying or did you miss the point I was making?

That 2 million doesn't belong to the TF2 team. Valve decides what they provide the TF2 team with and it's not much.

They want to care. But their resources are too limited and they're too busy fixing other things. 6s will get more support. But other things should be prioritized.
Either they fix things that affect 100% of the playerbase or they put their time into supporting the 1% that cares about the competitive scene. I know what I'd pick if I worked for Valve.
Sucks for us but it's the truth.

I wonder what resources Valve provides for their 3rd most played game because I highly doubt it's anywhere near where it should be for such a popular game

reset my stats like 1000 hours ago. I think if you double all these it's kinda accurate for my total hours except I definitely played a lot more soldier than scout before the reset so soldier'd be second place

Thanks for this. I love dark themes :)

What a necro. Might as well post some montage songs from back when I enjoyed CoD I guess

I've had the same problem since I was a child.
However they still tell you about it so they want you to know. Maybe they think you're just not that outgoing because of your social skills.
Directly ask them if you can come with them. It's not easy to ask at first but it has helped me. People just always assumed I wouldn't be interested until I told them I was

I rarely contribute to a conversation or have something to talk about. I always assumed nobody would care if I would be there or not. It took a friend yelling to my face how much he cared and how much I'd helped him in the past for me to realise.
Like I said it's not easy. It probably never will be. But you can't just assume people don't care about you. Assume they care and let them know you do care about them as well

I don't know what is going to become of me. Nor do I know what I want to become.

Always had decent grades in high school but didn't do anything. Science classes were my jam and science in general has always interested me so obviously I was planning on doing something in that direction in college.
Was considering chemistry-related stuff (Biochemistry mostly) but my friend who was also really good/interested in chemistry convinced me to go to some info day about pure Chemistry which convinced me to do that.

I'd soon realise I never had been thaught how to study. Highschool was too easy so I'd never even made notes in my life. It was difficult for me even though I didn't consider th classes to be that hard. I simply didn't know how to study actual challenging classes. At the end of the first year I managed to salvage most but I had to redo Physics I & II and Math I & II. Obviously pretty important things if you're doing Chemistry. Because of how the system worked back then this also meant I couldn't do a lot of classes from the second year that required passing those first.

Things really started going downhill now. I only had 3 or 4 classes per semester for the next year and a half. i'd lost most of my motivation and as the semester continued I'd start going to classes less.
After the next 2 semesters I'd at least passed part of the classes including everything from my first year but all barely. I still failed Physics II and Math I but I had a 9/20 on both which our sytem then allows you to pass as long as it only happens for 2 classes each year. You don't get any study credits back though (some system we use)
The 3rd semester I didn't pass anything. I had 3 classes but didn't study enough for any and missed a lot of classes.
This was also when I was at my peak of playing TF2 (10 hours per day for multiple weeks in a row) so I think I'd basically lost all motivation to do anything and my gaming addiction had become a major problem.

Nevertheless I wasn't planning on giving up completely. Next semester I would take all 6 classes again. It'd be tough but I wanted to prove to myself that I could make it. At this point I was trailing behind people I really shouldn't have been trailing behind so I knew I had to pass most of this semester. If I couldn't handle this anymore I should give up.
I had been in college for almost 3 years. Most of the people I started with were starting their Master next year and I was stuck in my 2nd bachelor.
Turns out that semester is actually the hardest semester in the entire bachelor with Quantum Chemistry and shit like that so that didn't turn out well. I had taken 9 classes that year and passed none.

So here we are 2 months after that semester.
So I have to make a decision now. I could probably do it still. It'd just take me twice as long as everyone else at this point. Even if I pass everything from this point on I'm 2 years behind. So my decision is to drop out. Not to do nothing though. I'm continuing Chemistry but I'll be going for a more practical degree. Looked into it and I'll have to do Math I all over again there because of that 9 but Physics there combines my Physics I & II so even though I had a 9 for Physics II they might pass me for it because I passed Phyics I.
I already don't have to do like 9 classes anymore.
Also in colleges here we get a second chance for exams we didn't pass in August. Even though I'm dropping out I'm still retaking 4 out of 9 exams. If I pass some I won't have to do some classes in the other degree I'l be trying to get now. Also just trying to prove to myself I can do it but maybe I'm lying to myself. Had 2 of the exams so far. Passed 1 (probably), failed 1 (definitely).

So yea... idk what I'm doing with my life.
Science interests me but I keep losing motivation halfway through semesters. I don't know if this new course will change things.
I definitely have a video game addiction but I've been working on it. I've been keeping track of the hours I play and they're slowly decreasing atm. went from 70-80 hours per 2 weeks to 40-50 per 2 weeks.
Also been taking therapy since June to find motivation again. Don't know if it's actually helping me but I can only hope it is.

Also valve should've implemented MM first without all the forced graphic settings and added those later so at least people would've played MM first. Now a lot of people never bothered even trying it and they never will either no matter how much it gets improved. Adding an MM system in an old game like TF2 is honestly incredible so obviously they're pretty talented and shit but then they do these things most people would know is a bad idea using common sense

I wrote an entire nerd essay about why I'm stupid for spending half my TF2 career playing sniper when sniping is actually the most boring thing in TF2 for me now and then my internet went down so I lost the nerd essay and now I'm more frustrated than I was before

I'll be adding those to the list of further customization.

I'd like to set it up with a basic vpk and a more in-depth one.

The Basic vpk will have the basic commands but will include a readme explaining every command. There will also be sections in the readme on more advanced commands + how to open console because many players don't know how to.
examples:
A Hitsounds section will go over killsounds, dingaling_volume, min_pitch, max_pitch, etc
A Damage Numbers section will mention batching, batching_window and I'm probably also going to include an optional Huddamageacount.res for readable damage numbers so Default HUD users can have readable damage
With the basic vpk it's up to them how they customise things

The in-depth vpk will have settings such as combattext_batching enabled by default and more visible damage numbers. Probably something like b4nny's damage numbers. Bigger and yellow (or maybe white). This is for very new users that want the more in-depth settings but don't want to go through the process of figuring out how to customise everything

Making a list of basic commands. Give feedback

Though some people might not like m_rawinput 1 and cl_autorezoom 1 I think it's fine to keep those in. If they don't like it and remove the vpk for that reason the other commands will remain at the correct values unless they change them back. And if they stick with it they'll realise these commands are better than the values they were at before

The end product will include a readme.txt with all the commands and a short description for all of them + further customization (stuff like tf_dingaling_volume)

One mistake in there is that hud_combattext_batching_window has a max value of 2. Also lots of people don't even know console is a thing so I recommend putting in a couple of methods for enabling the console
(with ~, with launch options, binding a button to "toggleconsole", some custom huds also give you the option to toggle it in the main menu. Some keyboards can't open console with ~. German keyboards and Belgian keyboards are an example)

I can also make a vpk that people can just put in Custom and it execs all the basic commands like fov_desired 90, m_rawinput 1, etc without people having to go through the process of putting a folder within Custom, adding a cfg map, making an autoexec.cfg etc. Might make that later. Should be very easy but I have exams so I'll do it during a later break today

edit: nvm making it now

also it's tf_dingalingaling 1, you misspelled it
