If you want some reasons why building a pro mod is retarded, think about who would want to use a promod. If TFTV says they're going to use the promod exclusively for competitive TF2, do you expect ESEA and FACEIT to follow suit? And if TFTV refuses to play competitive TF2 that isn't on the promod and refuse to play ESEA and FACEIT if they don't use it too, then you've killed two of the last major companies supporting TF2. And at that point, you've basically killed any money that goes into TF2.

Then there's the problem that you'd have players have to download two versions of TF2 if they want to still play pubs. Even b4nny still plays pubs during downtime and a promod would never have enough players to play pubs. At that point, why not just play regular TF2 for competitive? If you build a promod and people still play pubs, the two versions of TF2 they'd be playing would be completely different and inconsistent.

And what if a new player wants to join TF2? They'd have to look up some TF2 website and download and install a "promod" to just play the game. Most people would rather just play Valve's standard TF2 and stick to playing pubs rather than having to download and follow some website to play "competitive" TF2. And unless somebody wants to develop an anticheat and consistently update it, there's always the possibility of cheaters still being prominent in the promod and possibly even worse.

And finally, if the entire competitive community leaves to play promod (which is unlikely), then essentially you've killed competitive TF2 and now we'd be all living in a false paradise of competitive TF2 that will eventually die on its own since the competitive community has isolated themselves from everybody to play by themselves.

This is legitimately the most destructive thread I've ever seen on TFTV. The slander and absolutely retarded ideas being thrown around and accepted by people are doing more harm than good to this community. If you want TF2 to live, support ESEA and support FACEIT. If companies see that there's interest in competitive TF2 and their services, they'll show interest in us as well.

But if you want to lock yourself in a box and screech at change and new players, be my guest.

building a pro mod is legit retarded

Interesting that more people want the Loch 'n Load rebanned than the Cow Wangler.

low tier shitposting

just lock the thread already

Sucks that this overlaps with the ELEAGUE Major; hopefully viewer numbers won't be badly effected.

ESEA's website is down and people's clients are reporting they have -1337 karma.

Except the Quick-Fix always builds at max rate.

The BASE Jumper was unbanned in the first installment of the universal whitelist and immediately rebanned in the amendment just two days later. It isn't getting unbanned again anytime soon.
