albacukeiI could understand if ur on console and its hard to look around or whatever so u just sit in a corner and think it's fun, but when u see dudes with a mouse and keyboard prone in the back of the map spending the entire game getting a single chopper gunner u start to wonder where things went so wrong
well seeing how broken claymores are and how they are just everywhere its dangerous to move :D
pro tip don't sprint
i for one enjoy getting my shit pushed in every time I spawn on Piccadilly, claymores causing 1/3 of my deaths, and getting 1 shot by the 725 from 20m out
GazrickrigatoniHe tried though, when it didn't take off I think he lost interest.The way I see it is that he lost interest because he couldn't profit from it in any way. Trying in that situation means getting people to give TF2PL a second chance, especially in his position, and not abandoning the project and then also killing PugChamp NA in the process because he told them to fuck off and die. I might be mistaken but the NA pug scene has been in shambles ever since and thats definitely the opposite of keeping the scene alive.
How could he maintain interest when the platform failed to get anywhere near the traction he probably hoped it would, also there is little to no money in faceit. At the end there was only a player base of around 100 people (generous estimate). I doubt monetary gain was his main incentive. If money was his goal I don't think he would play TF2 for a living. At least that's what I think he does, I don't know him.
Pugchamp NA is far from dead. I don't know what it used to be like, but there are pugs everyday.
can you post those lol
GazrickrigatoniB4nny put some real effort into invigorating the scene with TF2PLDid he though?
He did fuck all except maybe talk to Faceit and slap "TF2PL CEO" onto his name. He definitely was not coding and maintaining the site.
TF2PL wasn't a thing without him. Yeah, b4nny was douche. He would come beat on us 1000 hour players and get all passive aggressive if we didn't play to his standards. Some of the best moments on that site were fucking with him. He tried though, when it didn't take off I think he lost interest.
This god map gets way too much hate. Not that the map is perfect, but it seems like people don't want to get out of their comfort zone.
hotwaxMisterDanny all that
This has already been said in a couple different forms, but b4nny is one man, a man who attempts to live off this game, by livestreaming to what we can pretty safely assume is a viewership made up newer, younger players. They look up to him! He's their idol. How would you feel if your idol said that the game is what it is, that there was no prize at the end? Would you keep watching him? No, you fucking wouldn't. The game has gotten to a point where he can't ignore the idea of stagnation - it is there - so his solution has been to essentially point fingers at everyone else and prolong his own relevancy by advertising himself as the "solution". He'll say whatever the fuck makes people feel like there is an actual path, a point, to playing other than for good ol' Pride and Peanuts. Whether that's coming out with a new pug website that dies within a year, promoting a new gamemode that at least half the people who have spent multiple seasons competing have genuine arguments against and either didn't play, or played non-competitively for shits and giggles, whatever.
Why does he only cater to newer players? Because anyone around long enough realizes sooner or later that it's all bullshit, you get nothing for playing this game, there is no path, there is no end, there no promised future, you ride the fucking train and meet some cool people along the way till your stop. And there's nothing wrong with that.
What's the difference between Insomnia Series and BTS, gameplay wise. Not much. But one of them is on another continent, and the other is like two hours away from the dude's house. Chew on that for a minute.
Can you blame him for trying to make a living doing something he loves? No, but stop trying to take a business man's word as truth.
B4nny put some real effort into invigorating the scene with TF2PL, although he maintained his namesake in the process. The game is small and shrinking. You can pout and cry, leave, or do something about it. He tried to do something about it. It's pretty clear b4nny isn't acting in bad faith when making his opinions on a better future for competitive TF2, whether you agree with them or not.
tibbyI constistantly put more time into TF2 than my peers but always remain worse. I watch my demos, play MGE despite hating it, and try my best to take criticism from my teammates. Despite all that, I feel as though I'm improving miles slower than the people around me. I dont want to shit out a cheap rationalization and say "Oh I'm just not talented like these other players" because to me that seems like a defeatist attitude that would lock me in my current position of mediocrity.
Improve other aspects of your life. It's all connected. Go work out and make sure your work/school is going well. Try some mental exercises.
original shoots rockets out of the center of the screen while the rocket launch shoot from the right side :)
Verify integrity of local games files or delete custom stuff and reinstall it. You probably have something fucked up in there.
ill i do is pug, and those are for fun so excessive sniping is banned
TF2Center admins kind of blow. They dug up one of my old ass accounts and accused me of cheating because i'm good and have no profile picture. I witnessed someone tell an admin to their face that they would ddos the site and they didn't do anything. They also ban and dox at their own discretion. Releasing any ip for any reason when acting as a public domain is pretty fucked imo.
