Brego's frag clip:

Come on man, I know you don't like over-edited clips — you've made that very clear whenever you can — but you don't need to be so intolerant. Whilst I enjoy watching your style of clean professional movies I also enjoy watching Naf/Cla's style of editing. Each to their own but regardless of whether you like it or not, you of all people can't deny the editors have put a lot of effort into most of these clips. At least respect them enough for that to accept the clip is not aimed at your tastes and not put them down for it.

...?

I use the FOV plugin not because it helps me see more but because it makes me feel like I'm going extra speedy
It was entertaining at first but then it felt weird removing it

And also how to counter it

As far as I know Chris experimented with the mat_viewportscale values and found none increased performance, try playing with 1 and see if you get reduced performance

I really don't see how this is the reason
It's just the playstyle that has developed. I never notice a difference in how a team plays if there's 25 minutes or only 10 minutes left (apart from any team with Greg on). Europeans have just usually been more passive

In almost all cases it'll be a problem with the wire
I had what you're describing for a couple of weeks or so before it started making the USB disconnecting noise. If that happens, send it back to logitech and get it repaired.

It's more complicated because it would use a different font
I could make a quick huddamageaccount.res file for you which uses a font already in tf2 if you like

It is possible by changing the "delta_lifetime" value.
That will make the floating damage numbers stay for longer before fading

Nothing's confirmed but it's looking likely
Also the boston basher has some great movement tricks

Could be because of your steam overlay
Disable it in-game and see if it fixes the issue

Happy little meatshots?

Try deleting MainMenuOverride.res in resource/ui
If that doesn't work, delete HUD files until the game opens and work out what's causing the crashes

mat_specular 0
should do it
