Bud[9] Daily: cp_process_rc2 review

sup buds. I'm going to be doing weekly map reviews throughout the season covering the ESEA map of the week. I'll try to go over each class and their roles on the map during holds, pushes, mids, and other things.

I'll be doing it today in 1 hour at 3pm cst on my stream @ http://www.twitch.tv/seanbud

If you have any suggestions on topics to cover for cp_process or the map reviews in general please let me know.

Here is a general outline I will try to follow:
Scout:
Mids
Pushes/holds
Offclass options

Soldier:
Mids
Rollouts
-Pocket: Ubers
-Roamer: Positioning

Demo:
Mids
Sticky traps
Pushes

Medic:
Heal rollout
Ubers
Holding positions

Like I said if you have any specific questions you can post them here or just stop by in stream chat and ask during appropriate sections I will try to answer them. I will probably end up watching a demo of mine from scrims during the past week or so at the end but no promises.

Hey seanbud, I've wanted to do something like this for UGC (being the UGC admin 6v6 and many of our teams being new) but I've had trouble getting things scheduled with the players and recorders and editing types - and I can't stream due to rivaling Ggglygy for upload speed.

If you do manage to get through most or all of the maps would you mind if I posted these to the UGC news page each week in future seasons or at least until the next big meta-game swing?

In the future I will probably do it later in the evening and have 1 or 2 of the BEAMS stop by to help out.

No that's fine with me :)

Pretty cool, but I think next time try to see if you can get some guests whom that is their main class to teach some of the other ones, you did have to pull up a youtube video to show one of the rollouts, where if you had a guest he could have done it himself and shown some other neat tricks that he uses.

Still awesome though, and I learned a good amount, thanks Seanbud :)

I like the idea of you doing a weekly workshop, with other members of Laser Beams/anyone else who is qualified and willing stepping in to help out. There's definitely a need for something like this with the influx of new teams. Glad to see everybody in the community stepping up lately - it's a good sign for the TF2 community. I'll watch the vod later. Thanks.

Don't use serif fonts for labels (title screen), especially on a stream - they don't scale as well nor do the serifs compress nicely.

Which fonts do? Or is it literally every other font than serifs

Serif fonts such as Times New Roman are typically used for extended passages of text (like news articles or forum posts) although they can certainly be used in other context for specific styles.

This seems to be the only process_rc2 thread. Saw these billboards and thought they were a bit plain -

Older version, but:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3492731/process/cp_process_b7_4.jpg

If you want to reenable overlays put this in console/config:

r_renderoverlayfragment 1

Overlays save you at BEST 1-2 frames.
