PROOFS OR PROXYKOHOL

SWEDEN
YES

This is pretty end of an era. Future's looking kinda uncertain lest we get some confirmation of TF2's survival from our new diversity overlords.

I think Kalkin got me started on having an 8 in/360 for TF2 but then I dipped down to 7 in or something a while later and drifted. Kinda stuck around the 6-8 in/360 for everything I played until Benroads asked me what my sensitivity was and I forgot what in/360 I was on so I told him "uh, 1.7 sens" and he put me back on 8 in/360.

Haven't budged from 8 in/360 since for just about everything.

Can we get you a TF2 Lifetime Achievement Award or something? Holy fuck.

It's got stunning grafics and sound design but it's pretty DICE-tier graphically in areas (mainly lens flare abuse). That's where my praise ends.

It's got some of the most shallow gameplay ever despite it being pretty bug-free and release is only a month away, meaning the game is pretty much done so anyone who stutters out "i-i-it's a b-beta! t-they'll patch it!" shouldn't be listened to; don't expect the November release to be terribly different from what everyone is currently playing. Battlefield gameplay is fine for Battlefield games; this definitely required a lot more game design thought than DICE actually put into it.

Cards don't add any depth to the game since everyone rolls with a jetpack, laser MG42, and sniper rifle/thermal detonator as soon as they can grab it. Jetpack, one you get it, is pretty much mandatory for your loadout as you just go farther faster when you use it and can get to stupid flank positions. The laser MG42 is objectively the best blaster in the game. This means that there's a decently large albeit not impassable unlock wall between new players with FPS experience and people who have just been playing for longer.

Substituting rolling for jetpacks causes a big problem since early-game Hoth ends up being a bunch of Rebels jetpacking up to Wookie Mountain (heh Wookie actually has multiple meanings in this case) and just spawn camping. It can be broken, but the worst part so far is that if you have a mumble squad of four or five people, you can put shit on lock and let the rest of your team fill in the gaps. The game will advance a bit and Wookie Mountain doesn't last forever, but it's a shitty experience for the Empire. Having a mumble squad will break Wookie Mountain faster but this just means that since pubs are matchmaking-based, gameplay outside of playing with a squad of competent friends is gonna blow dick.

Removing classes really ruins almost all of the dynamics within Star Wars games. There's no reliable repair system for both offense and defense outside of waiting for turrets to respawn for Rebels. There's no reliable AT system for both offense and defense outside of the Ion Rifle card which doesn't do a whole lot of damage to vehicles one-on-one. There's no reliable inter-soldier synergy outside of hoping someone RNGs a pickup into a squad shield; SWBF1 engineers relied on other comrades for support and everyone relied on engineers for health/ammo and repairs. Classes also help to give people focus and purpose during the game; sure you can have a bunch of people running homogeneous loadouts but if you don't have people without missile classes in a game with vehicles, how do you expect people to fire at AT-ATs with blaster rifles, let alone figure out focusing fire and figuring out the Ion Blaster card's purpose? I'm not talking about any of this from the competitive side of the earlier SWBF, just from the much more common pub side.

Default FoV of 55 lmao. At least DICE gave us the ability to raise it to something reasonable.

Luke is objectively better than Vader.

Single player sucks. The AI wave defense isn't fun by any means. I don't know why for a game with so little actual content, DICE couldn't include Clone Wars. There were so many more pitched battles in the Clone Wars to pick and choose from while there aren't a whole lot during the Original Trilogy. So far, this game is definitely not worth $60-70. Justifying a $60 purchase by saying "they'll release more DLC that you can pay more for to get the whole experience!" doesn't make it an investment. This game will be mind-blowing and "perfect" for three types of people:

1. People who have never played a Star Wars game before
   
2. ReddiTumblr users who want to jump on the newest nerd craze to garner more "lol i'm such a nerd" credit
   
3. People who genuinely enjoy every single last aspect of Star Wars (you better have your Extended Universe memorized and your movie posters framed my man)

Why couldn't we just get this instead?

most of those aren't even the right fucking colors lmao

This, wtf. I thought my school was going to get slammed because this area was given the D pretty hard when Sandy hit.

There's a lot about Well that's just 100% booty buttcheeks on all 3 points (mid, 2nd, last). Well is one of those maps I miss from pub rotations when there were legitimately populated community servers but if someone wanted to make a "pro" well, the map just wouldn't even be Well anymore, and even then probably not fun to play.

I dunno where people get this notion from but it's not as true as people make it out to be. This is just a pretty AIDS idea as TF2 and CS are two entirely different games that have entirely different styles of play and share at most the same engine. Potshots that can't be retaliated against are buttcheeks in TF2 because of how interdependent the classes are on each other. In CS, that isn't as much of a worry.

A suggestion to anyone who wants to make these kinds of posts in the future: go watch the TF2 dev commentary before you post, because it talks about the rationale behind most of the decisions for the base gameplay of TF2.

I got the same problem as above, put items on the TSU v. Froyotech game and I still haven't gotten 'em back.

Anyone else pub a whole lot yet? I've been playing CTF pubs and it's kinda miserable even when I'm winning, but I'm still willing to stick with it. I gotta rant autismically about Facing Worlds aka the 2fort of UT for a bit so bear with me here. FW isn't as awful not-fun AIDS as TF2 2fort circa 2010 despite them having almost the same inherent design but someone clearly fucked up when making the new FW. I even reinstalled 2k4 to make sure I wasn't hallucinating that 2k4's FW wasn't like this one.

I get that people will always be drawn to the sniper rifle weapon but when UT4's FW has the old at-spawn sniper rifle spawn and on top of that now has this kind of sightline to the other side of FW's low ground spawn as well as both of the sniper perches. 2k4's FW at least has the slopes cover up low ground spawn until you get to the very peak. It was also a helluva lot easier to fight for the Keg of Health on 2k4's FW since there was more room to brawl without 100% being afraid of falling off unless your team completely controls the hill.

Also how do I abuse the shit out of walljumping? I basically have no idea how it works outside of that super quick "movement tutorial" level where I pressed spacebar into a wall and somehow made it across to the next area.
