The vast majority of those quake players with 20 years of exp are not good. Its not the skill difference that is the reason why they don't have players its just people don't care.

A lot of TF2 players who were young start playing quake because Yz50/Mike/Clockwork play those games, so we have a reason to care about it, but people from games like Fortnite don't have that, unless they heard about it from playing Kovaks or something, which is the reason why I ran into those Zoomer Fortnite players in the first place.

And in regards to the newer Quake games, they never got big because the old quake pros would rather be playing the old shite and they have no casual people and so no audience for anyone - just desperate attempt of forcing an esport

People arent just playing games because the gameplay is good

And I feel like some of them get turned onto things like Quake ans TF2 from things like Overwatch and Fortnite. I've ran into like 3 people who were turned onto Quake from Fortnite

Just read an article about how TF2's max FPS is like 400.

Does this mean an OLED at 480hz will be worse than the TNs with Backlight strobing because the OLED is solely relying on the frames whereas the TN is working its magic with the backlight strobing tech for this game? Still probably get it for other games but is that the matter?

Cause I read for example those top refresh rate monitors are shitter than the ones that are specialised for 240hz for example at those lower rates

No new crates?

Not a fan of this trend where the bakeries are making Instagram giant crossaints/trying to reinvent the recipies. That's my crossaint thought 17/04/2024 11:47 (GMT+1)

I think this game used to have a big diversity including girls, but they moved onto other games just leaving behind white guys.

Back in 2014, I feel like this game had the most diverse community in gaming, but I think most pubbers quit because they were playing for things like the game's sense of humour and character personalities etc

I think a lot of girls who did end up playing in this scene were always some guy's GF that was introduced by the guy because of the way this community markets itself as this elitist society where people don't play for fun, which is also why it didn't get big.

A lot of the girls went to overwatch for that same appeal and their comp community doesn't act like that, but then that game died because of in the end it was bad.

We still probably the biggest in terms of LGBT+ though

Depends on your budget. If you're just looking at that Viewsonic budget which is like £300, then yeah the BenQ is the best option. If I wasn't waitng on tbe 480hz OLED, I'd buy the 360hz OLED Alienware for like 700ish

From what I read the Viewsonic has lots of issues and isn't actually clearer than the BenQ. They just paid the Blurbuster dudes for the certificate. I don't think the BenQ 240hz is worth it in 2024 though

Show us your TF2 Loadout Spring Summer 2024

Thank you Joe, but I don't mind the effects. I'm talking about old hats with the new effects. Thank you though

Which one is that Mak

Thank you

Nicer way you could have said this. This is a safe space.

Headshot with the Ambassador

Fumbling around with the concept of becoming a trader main...

Is it possible to get the old hats from the crates as unusuals? Don't mind if the effects are the new stuff, but I don't like the new designs for the hats.

Anyone also trader main can show me the ropes?

Feel free to talk about TF2 trading, economy, etc here
