Another option to consider: A cheap Windows/Android phone + micro SD card. Then use whatever app you want for music (including internet music apps like spotify, pandora, etc).

wtf is up with this voice over, I thought it was the Google Now TTS engine for a second.

Man this makes me remember how much fun New Map Weekends were, and also how much effort went into them from Waxpax.

We would pug on each map, then after the pug everyone would be encouraged to give constructive and descriptive feedback. Waxpax would transcribe all this into a neatly formatted forum post in the tf2maps.net thread for each individual map, after each weekend of pugs. What a guy.

To add to what Admirable was talking about, here's another excellent example from someone other than Torn Productions "telling the story" at 3:30:

Another unforgettable section in that video worth taking note of would be the two yukon last clips around 2:45-3:10. Between Leogeo2's casting, the sick zoom in on the kritz soldier's eyes followed by a crit airshot, and finally the double airshot on Seagull (with a single rocket from both Jaeger and Relic and both soldiers glancing at each other like "damn") I'm sure many a soldier main found themselves with a half chub.

Oh god b4nny gave ash THE look. LOL

ok the double tele impressive at 4:17 was pretty sick

Forsaken, do you by chance have any of the vids from your old channel saved??? This one in particular would be wonderful: "YdMqTHcrKM4"

I'm such a frag video nerd

godddd dammit, I was plowing through episodes on the plane yesterday (sitting in the middle) and then this scene came up and I didn't know what to do. (a chromebook too, not a little phone screen)

True, but it's also noteworthy that he has sick mechanical skills honed from countless hours in other games:

I don't want to get sucked in too deep in this argument but I have to point this out: Even if you all invest literally hundreds of hours into developing a TF2Center replacement, that doesn't solve the problem of having a customer base. I guarantee 95% of TF2Center players don't know of, don't care about, and/or are completely unaffected by all the issues listed off in this thread. These players have no reason to stop using TF2Center unless a significantly better service comes around to replace it. If you guys can manage to make a functional feature-rich competitor in less man hours than would be required to talk some sense into MasterNoob color me surprised.

While we're still theory crafting, a five rocket clip liberty launcher sounds pretty sick if you hit the directs.

Also while it's not a huge deal, pockets should be able to save a decent amount of ammo if they build uber during holds by pulling out the escape plan. Your medic would still be building at full charge rate until you get to 285 (I think) which would take a decent amount of time at 10% healing speed. Obviously you run the risk of getting hit with a mini crit but it might be worth the risk if you're running low on ammo or something.

EDIT: dangit cme i was typing :[

I believe this is meant to reduce the "spamability" of the dead ringer. Before, you could feign death and take 90%(?) reduced damage from whatever, then immediately uncloak and grab x amount of ammo and feign death again. After these changes grabbing x amount of ammo after feigning death will no longer get you a full cloak meter, aka can't use the dead ringer yet, AND you take more damage while feigning death in the first place.
