So this is a plea for tf2tv to open an offical tf2.tv MGE server as well as a rant. ALL of the popular MGE servers are allclass. Firepowered/pizza's. The problem with this is when I want to mge I dont want to see spy vs sniper on fucking spire. Theres nothing that pisses me off more in mge than some dipshit thinking its fine to play heavy vs heavy on something like granary middle, or gully mid. Firepowered has the same issue but also has TERRIBLE lag problems with microstudder all over the place. I would love to see an mge server that fixes all of this and focusses on ACTUALLY getting better at the game.
Thanks

there are a number of servers that are generally populated by competitive players like pugme or syops.

Would be happy to convert my server to a class restricted MGE server but it seems like those servers are already out there, if you know where to look - as the people above stated

I mean you can say all you want that people should just join pugme, people should just join syops etc, and while they are good servers people are just going to go with what they are familiar with. Most of the time you look at those servers wanting to play they are 0/24, 3/24 and so on.
People were familiar with firepowered and that got removed for valid reasons so in order to make a good server become popular I kind of agree with the OP (albeit his reasoning wasn't the greatest). A tftv labelled MGE server similiar to the DM servers would probably get populated easily with good players.

I believe there is a problem with every server recently, whether it be bad routing, choppy, no class limits (not too necessary though), random spread, etc. Given that, if you have a server that has absolutely no issues and is in a central location, it would be nice to make that the "go-to" server. Also, if you could include tftv in the label, that would definitely help populate it. If you are interested in that, you should talk to enigma about making that the name and put on the server list.

Well, the pug.me one only seems to be occassionally filled with some people. Tf.tv already runs dm servers, so they probably have the resources to open a few mge servers as well, except I feel they would be populated more often than the pugme ones.

It'd be cool if you could like, join a server from the homepage of tf.tv instead of watching tf2, or looking at juicy invite gossip.

The tftv dm servers have nothing to do with tftv aside from being branded as such afaik. Sal pays for them out of his own pocket. I don't really think the reason there is no tftv mge server is that nobody wants to pay for one, it's more that there literally is no reason for one to exist. There are already at least 3 good mge servers that nobody uses.

Just bookmark the servers page if 1 click is too much effort for you. What I did is change my in game browser default url to the tftv server list

Would be nice if there was teamfortress.tv pub server for eu and na. Could easily plaster a bunch of decals around maps with stuff like playcomp.tf on. It wouldn't bring a massive amount of traffic to the site but wouldn't do any harm.

no competitive focused pub server has succeeded since star's east coast, and it took him having hundreds of thousands of subscribers who wanted a chance to play with him to keep it populated.
I don't even know of any normal pubs not tied to bigger organizations that do well

is anyone having issues with the superfun partytime servers?
you should tell me if there are issues with those.
i will maybe fix these issues.
its pretty impossible to grow a new community right now, without having a bunch of players come from existing communities, since the quickplay change.

Just so people know, FirePowered MGE is no longer all-class. It's been restricted to the default classes + Sniper.

If somebody wants to run one, contact me, I'll take care of the financial part of it, if you can mod and admin it I can do the rest.
Maybe we can get a few up and running, I don't mind doing this for DM servers either.

The real question is, are firepowered servers still laggy?
It's great they added class restrictions but if they are still jittery and laggy I still personally won't play on them

This is something people don't seem to realize but is entirely true. I have been a part of justplay for like 2 years now and basically every new server we have tried to launch since the update where they fucked up quickplay has failed and that is even with multiple other servers that are always full with plugs for the servers. You basically have to bot to get a new server off the ground at this point.
