kirbyb4nnyGo watch WarOwl or Greekgod or any new TF2 player playing competitive mode for the first time. They didn't care nor notice any issues with the enforced graphics settings. Your perspective is biased because you are too attached to your FPS configs. Level playing field, standardization and accessibility is a necessity for the integrity of the competitive mode long term. That said, they should definitely add as many commands/settings as possible to the options menus so that FPS config level graphics can still be achieved while maintaining fairness.
Then how come it's not forced on any currently successful esport
Last i checked modern esports games don't have FPS configs. Then again modern esports titles are playable without them.
YeeHawAll_Over_RSi wonder what their reasoning for keeping the forced graphical settings is, especially in such a restricting way and everyone had been complaining about it since MYM. 'level playing field' is pretty bullshitso new players who watch streams wont be turned off of the game
That is utterly ridiculous. The ones who actually get viewers in this game dont play TF2's MM and probably won't until it is in a usable state. Optimize the game to be playable without a GFX config and force it across the board or not at all.
LOL @ everyone - fraging me because i criticized Valves productiveness and decision making because they finely implemented shit that should have been in the game 6 years ago.
No need to suck the devs off because they finally decided to empty a couple piss bottles.
As much as i love this game (played for almost 10 years now) Valve hasn't delivered on even the basics and i am tired of seeing this game rot because of there malice/incompetence/indifference.
glassb4nnyBut of course, more settings available and more optimization would be great, as long as it's accessible for everyone, even the newest players.are better defaults (fov, etc) and more in-game customization options (replacing the need for handmade, ultra-complex autoexec files) among the feedback you've communicated to valve in the past? if so, how did that conversation go?
it just matters so much fucking more than whether they unbalance the panic attack for the fourth time.
^this
The defaults are beyond terrible. The steam overlay covers your uber meter on Medic with the default hud. The default net settings feel like you are playing with 100 ping. Red is possibly the worst color they could have chosen for there hit numbers. A TON of essential settings you need if you don't want to play with a disadvantage are not enabled by default. Worst of all the game gets unacceptable (from a competitive standpoint) FPS drops without a config on most systems.
Saltysally1warowl's mic and headphones together cost more than my computer b4nny. You cannot expect everyone to have top of the line systems especially considering the age of this game.
Game runs like dead horse even on NICE systems if the parts are not specifically chosen for this piece of shit 10 year old game.
With a R7 1700 @ 4ghz, 16gb DDR4 3200, and a GTX 970 i still get FPS drops far below what i consider acceptable in pubs without a config. To make matters worse for some reason the source engine feels like utter garbage if you don't keep your FPS high super high. No idea why this is but the game from a technical standpoint is a turd. I have no issue with them enforcing ingame settings but only if they bring there game up to 2018 standards. Why the fuck do i get a better experience in Overwatch and Fortnite on high settings than i do with TF2 on a stripped down config? This is completely unacceptable. Honestly it would probably be easier from the devs to reset the codebase and port over to a new engine (Unreal 4 preferably but being Valve @ least give us Source 2) than it would be for them to patch this mess.
janga7This update actually looks really nice. the ONE reason i still wont play comp tho is because it forces me to use viewmodels. like, why? this game is well past the point of being an esport, and the only reason i can think of is for new players watching streams.
Valve is aware that this community is generally nice people. Im sure valve could just ask anyone who streams this game with regular viewers to put up a notice or something in the stream description.
Otherwise, some good changes :)
TBH it needs to be enforced across the entire game or not at all. This 1/2 and 1/2 BS doesnt help anything.
frenzy_ScrewballSTILL NO CLASS LIMITS IN COMPETITIVEobv valve doesn't want class limits
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
GOD DAMN IT VALVE HOW HARD IS THIS TO FIGURE OUT?
obv valve is incompetent and doesnt know there own game then. Even Overcuck has class limits. There is a reason we have them. The game breaks when people are playing seriously without them. It doesn't need to be the same as our competitive (a simple limit of 2 would be enough) but it needs to exist.
STILL NO CLASS LIMITS IN COMPETITIVE
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
GOD DAMN IT VALVE HOW HARD IS THIS TO FIGURE OUT?
I like a bit of everything with the exceptions of religious music, literal noise, and modern country.
can i use this in ESEA?
Yes but you need to be careful not to fall into the heal sink trap. Makes you much more effective in uber exchanges and against scouts. I also find that it is partially map dependant.
nitestuff
I agree. It is by FAR the best battle royal game. That bloom based shooting can be infuriating at times. Nothing worse than having your crosshair perfectly centered and watching the bullets matrix around your targets head.
niteoh all that being said, the mobile thing is really dumb and has pretty terrible consequences for average skill level in a given server, since the phone gamers are cross platform with pc
Cross platform players are on separate servers.
