I kind of have a burnout. I still love TF2 but don't really feel the need to play as much. Picked up Path of Exile recently instead and enjoying that atm.

Haven't quit TF2 fully and I still pub/mix with friends every couple of days. Though the desire to play competitively has kind of disappeared. I'm rusty now and playing again until I reach my old level no longer seems worth the investment.
I'm still sort of active in the TF2 Twitch community and still watch comp when I see tftv is live. tf.tv is also still one of my most visited bookmarks.

I enjoyed TF2 without ever even considering picking up another game for 3 years and I don't regret it. Will probably even play more TF2 in the next couple of months because PoE is too addicting and I can't really play the new season a lot because of exams.

Good luck. You were one of my favorite people in the TF2 community and I'm certain you'll do fine with whatever new things you'll be doing in real life :)

looks like someone beat me to this one but I was already making it anyway so here it is

Figure out an objective way to judge if a clip is good enough to use. Quality > Quantity

I usually gather clips that are okay for my standard, then make a notepad in which I describe the clips in short (kills, map, extra info like airshots/1v1s/not having heals/etc). Then you can rank them to find the ones you like most and filter out scraps.

Having a notepad like that also helps you orden clips in the video.
For example I make sure to mix scout, sniper and soldier clips equally so you don't watch 2 minutes of soldier frags, then 2 minutes of scout frags. Same goes for maps. This is just a thing I prefer though. Many people probably don't care about this.

You can keep scraps and use these for editing practise. It's up to you if you upload those as a scrap montage or just delete the project afterwards. These are just for learning things like transitions/smoothing/etc so your serious videos will turn out better. No need to spend hours on a scrap montage. Just throwing some clips together, figuring out transitions and maybe making a single smooth every now and then can help

Don't use minimal viewmodels in videos. A lot of people don't like the look of it. Regular viewmodels with viewmodel_fov between 70 and 90 are fine

This works for me on windows 8.1. basically for some backwards reason you don't get scaling options unless you use a 4:3 monitor res but you can just change it to 4:3, turn on scaling, go back to the native screen res and it will still enable scaling for any 4:3 game like TF2

Go here

http://puu.sh/sAKe1/1598b1acf5.png

change to 1024x768 or whatever 4:3 option the slider will give you. You'll now have a monitor res that's 4:3. Select Keep Changes if a window pops up

http://puu.sh/sAKhx/eda846de4d.png

Click the Advanced Settings and change the scaling to Scale Full Screen. Now your monitor will scale the 4:3 res so you should already see the scaling happening if you did things correctly up to this point

Now close Advanced Settings and change back to your native resolution

Now you can enjoy scaling in videogames. If you want to disable it again you'll have to go through the same steps (change monitor res to a 4:3 res, open advanced options, disable/enable scaling, change monitor res back to original res)

Couldn't get the white going around the hood the way i wanted it but here it is anyway. Should still look fine if it's a profile pic
