The thread you linked recommends putting cl_interp on 0 so not sure why you are going against your own source. Also, I'd recommend using cl_interp_ratio 1 even on hitscan if you have a decent connection that doesn't drop packets. Higher interp ratios mitigates the effects of packet loss, but if there are no packet losses to mitigate it's not really necessary.

Nah, it was by far the most used unlock even before the passive reload buff. I think Mirelin was pretty much the only notable medic that primarily used another weapon than the Crossbow.

You can go back to i49 (2013) to see that it was the most used unlock by top medics. Hard to find any information before then as logs were not as detailed.

EDIT: For reference, the passive reload buff was added two months after this LAN.

If you are going to nerf the crossbow I think uber building should be removed (possibly in addition to removing passive reload). It will still be better than all the other med unlocks, but at least abusing arrows in the wrong situation will cause a significant uber disadvantage which good players can recognise and capitalise on.

(arrows used to not build uber and have reload time... it was still the most widely used unlock by far)

I don't really know what config is the best, but they should not have much difference between them in performance.

Use an up-to-date FPS config instead. Half of these launch options don't do anything.

TF2 was way bigger in 2010 than it is now. ETF2L used to have an endless amount of D6/D5 teams, now there's like 40 teams in open.

IGN has a full-game walkthrough on youtube, no commentary and plays objectives. Pretty good if you want to avoid annoying streamers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52VT2A4UZt4

Still wish I had a VR headset though.

At LAN you don't have to wake up in the middle of the night to play. You will most likely have adjusted to the jet lag in the previous days if you come from other continents. Waking up in the middle of the night vs being jetlagged is a big difference.

The ETF2L nation cups are played on European servers at European times, so anyone not from Europe is very disadvantaged. It's a European league, so the nation cups are mainly for European countries. It is not really meant to be an intercontinental competition. North American teams usually get Chicago/East coast players for ETF2L competitions as it's possible to get below 100 ping, which is still playable. Oceanian/East Asian teams have never entered as they would have to wake up in the middle of the night to play a 300 ping official.

It's very impractical. Aside from the astounding ping differences between the regions, the playoff matches would have to be played at very inconvenient times. How do you possibly balance a bo3 between an Australian team and a European team? Either one of the teams will have 300+ ping or both will have 150+ ping, which are both unplayable. How do you schedule matches between a European team and an Australian team, one will either have to play extremely late, or extremely early, or both will have to play at inconvenient times. TF2 is already hard enough as it is to schedule around work and real life stuff, so scheduling intercontinental matches would be a nightmare for everyone involved.

Besides, there not being a TF2 LAN at the moment is not because there is nobody stepping up to the plate, it's because it's not possible to host one now due to the pandemic. When the pandemic is over, I'm certain we will see LANs being organised again.

I love how they just cut off the interview at the end because Nepo won't stop talking

toughest decision you ever made related to tf2?

It doesn't really drop frames for me, it just becomes very jittery. hud_reloadscheme seems to solve that though.

Uuuhhhh posting death threats over a ban in a video game league that happened like 7 years ago... get a life?
