vac is automatic, and if it trips in any game, you're perma'd from every game on that game engine (in this case Source 2007)

don't cheat
literally not worth it
if the servers are vac secured, they're probably using modern VAC

what the fuck sort of leap is that

r u srs

pls demonstrate to me where on the human body it is both safe AND effective to shoot someone

u do realize the point of guns is to kill ppl right?
rofl trying to ban guns
pls try to take guns out of gang neighborhoods, im sure everyone is gonna be fine waiting for the cops when dipshit breaks into a house and waves a 44 around

he got vac banned

interesting test to see would be a flyover of a map (well is the same as launch I think) and use bot commands to get a full 23 man server creating as many particles/projectiles as possible, and comparing frame rate

can't really test hats too much, but i'd assume that the 2014 build would offer better performance with all the threading commands and stuff

i think there are plugins to give bots hats but i dont think that'd be a good test

two players left my team to make this one

it was a smart move

in what way is downloading an extra copy of a game not piracy?
please explain

i dont think u understand copyright law

team will die

he's very nice
he's like 28
he's been playing forever
friends with wari so u can get the hookup on the latest MGE maps
also actually seems really interested in game balance/meta and likes to talk about it, so if ur a big tf2 nerd u at least have something to discuss

making a new isp has ridiculous start up cost to be seriously competitive
on top of that the oligarchy in place tries incredibly hard to sustain itself
google is basically the only tech company interested in being an ISP that can afford to lay new wire and has a genuine interest in providing service
and even if they do manage to get their service up and running i think it's pretty obvious that just being an ISP isn't so lucrative that businesses can sustain themselves on it

i spent like 5 minutes looking for the change then i saw that post and i cried :(

that only applies if there are class limits

(arbitrary) class limits are part of the reason valve feels the game is difficult to approach and not worth encouraging on a competitive level

as it is, 2 high level demos is a better use of players than 2 high level soldiers, or scouts, or anything really

um
idk if ur an idiot
but you literally just told me demo is not OP because people don't want to play demo 24/7
u shouldnt bring class preference into a balance discussion ever because by that logic spy and sniper are OP as fuck because most pubbies love sniper and spy and play them a ton

like that logic only works if u play highlander where the actual effectiveness of classes has no bearing on whether the class is used
demo is the only class that can stop an engi stack or heavy stack by himself
he can also reasonably take out all the other classes solo
if you're better than everyone else, there isn't a reason to play anything but demo if you want to win
because demo has the highest potential frag and damage output of any class if you're good enough at it

this is his core problem
if you're trying to win, demo is going to give you the most mileage unless you're playing against high level scouts
until engi and heavy are incapable of stopping pubs from moving, demo's nature cannot be changed without breaking the game, but to pretend he isn't the most powerful class in high player count games is just dumb

but he's not wrong

why would you play soldier in 12v12 if you could just be demo instead

keep in mind the players are bad so you can consistently hit pipes
