im not sure if i feel sorry for the hosts or if they're making things worse

almost every time I die in pubs I press M to open loadout and habitually check the numbers on my stranges

genuinely have no idea why, I've long stopped caring about the numbers, but it just became such a hard habit

i am the beach (bitch) : give me win ! ! !

Could be wrong but don't people have vision issues with default via? Snow colour scheme isn't helpful even with my 20/20 vision.

Wouldn't the contracts kind of fill the role they want? If valve made it so you had to have a certain level on, for example, the gun mettle coin (or whatever contract coin is available), it means that people have to both pay a small amount & invest a certain amount of time to get in. Slows cheaters from getting new accounts into mm too, because you've gotta get varied stuff like 10 sentry killstreaks on engineer (kill me now, I know), which isn't really made that much easier by hacks afaik.

I'm sure this has been brought up before somewhere

e: also makes sure people have a basic understanding of the game/classes before attempting mm

I've tried most of the standard steam support basics (verify game cache, etc.) but didn't think of that. Seems no one is having similar issues, so I guess I'll try a reinstall and maybe my chances with a steam support ticket. Thanks!

Edit: Tried turning off steam overlay as I've been having issues with the steam client itself recently, and this seems to have fixed the crashes for now.

Edit: Never mind, delayed the crashes for about an hour

Is anyone getting regular crashes while playing since this update? I haven't been able to notice any patterns behind the crashes, and I've never had this issue before. As far as I can tell, nothing has changed on my pc outside of TF2.

Really frustrating, can't play scrims/lobbies/pubs without dropping out, sometimes within 5 minutes or less.

Anyway, this update (minus gamebreaking bugs) seems pretty well done, especially in the lead up for the matchmaking update. After jumping is fixed + stickies are back to normal (???) there are only a couple of issues, imo.

I'm mainly concerned about the weapon pickup mechanic - if they restricted it to only picking up functionally identical weapons (aka reskins), and giving you the same ammo loaded when you pick up a weapon, it'd be fine. You get to check out a nice skin without potentially upsetting game balance, which seems like how it should have been done in the first place?

I don't know, maybe they can balance it to fix the glaring issues (potential for multiple ubers, etc.), but I think the minimal requirement is to have the same ammo loaded on the gun you pick up as the one you dropped (how this works between different weapons, I have no idea). Applying the same weapon drop mechanics as csgo, an entirely different game, doesn't seem wise.

The 20% damage resistance on heavy miniguns is slightly worrying too - surviving fully charged headshots while firing doesn't seem like it makes sense when you have the fists of steel to do that, and that requires you to switch weapons.

Word of warning - I don't know what your problem is. However, if that's your error it doesn't seem like a config error, more like you're missing or have incorrectly edited a file. If you haven't already, verify your game cache. Try moving your objects.txt file to the desktop and verifying, or replacing the contents with the defaults - found here from someone with a similar problem:

that flan poster is so sick, and congrats!

A while ago I made a poll thing comparing tf2 mains to these personality test results for reddit. It's kind of broken, but some of you might be mildly interested. ENTP for me.

Thanks for the f.lux recommendation, it's pretty much exactly what I wanted without knowing I wanted it in the first place.

i picked up this one, cheers sleeepy!

I'm a div5 shitter, so take my words with a grain of salt, but:

Jasmine are the only team left in the brackets that was formed previous to this cup, and are looking pretty strong after defeating the remnants of iM playing a more casual season with 10-4 Rubber Ducky. Watch Madness & Geoh especially, absolute monsters, but the same could be said for the rest of the roster.

Noob Slayers are pretty much an all stars team, packed with top players on their combat classes (notably, termo, of i52 fame). I'm not sure if some of them are offclassing - but maybe someone more informed could post here. I'd say to watch for specific players, but really, any could go huge if given the opportunity. However, as they were formed for this tournament, they might be less polished against the practiced Jasmine team.

I know a great deal less about Severity and New Direction, but watch for render & dubious for Severity, as well as Dylie & Mental Realm for New Direction.
