everytime I go out on a friday night my fucking team dies how is that even possible ?? ??

I played med this season cause i was still pretty shit at playing an actual dm class on my laptop

it's been pretty fun despite not fragging I thought it would be a lot worse tbh, although next season I'm totally playing scout again, 120hz is just a needless luxury anyway i'll be fine without it...

i'm pretty sure the argument for affirmative action is to benefit racial groups that are inherently "disadvantaged" due to their economic status preventing them from getting as good of an education as they possible could have, which is all nice and dandy in theory and I do agree that those who are disadvantaged should have some form of compensation.

In reality though, (at least from what i've seen) AA just promotes racial animosity and the feeling that you're not actually competing with other applicants but you just need to be better than "the next asian" (replace your own race here). Obviously my viewpoint is biased as fuck and is completely anecdotal, I'd just like to get my thoughts out there.

not to mention that if you were of a race that is seen as traditionally benefiting from affirmative action and you were a qualified applicant, some people will completely undermine your accomplishment because of your race. I personally knew a Mexican-American individual who was perhaps one of the most intelligent people I've ever met, and yet a lot of people belittle her accomplishments by saying things like "oh she only got in/got that job because she's ______" which is probably unbelievably shitty for her.

See me on the big stage when i main this character tbh

gg to ok kids

deft stop fucking me with the loch

thanks

oh wtf that's actually been happening to me

sigsegv is a fucking god bless this man

u know when people joke about how pyro and spy are useless in hl that doesn't mean go ahead and make a format where they're never used lol

invisible players PLEASE like I'm already being punished enough by lagging out do i really need to waste even more time recording/stopping a demo or praying that i didn't get the invisible player glitch.

they hate him because he walks the righteous path
never give up
never quit
u have my support

tbh rescue ranger would be perfectly fine if you couldn't bring your gun into spawn (make it blow up like it used to)

but yea rescue ranger/cow mangler will probably see full time use

beggars for niche purposes (mid double bombs?)

i also think loch n load is a bigger problem than people realize, i remember when it was briefly allowed in hl jarrett would get like equal damage on the loch vs. his sticks

now granted you have slow ass classes in hl but i think the benefit of hitting scouts more reliably in 6's makes it more useful than stock

found a team as med thanks everybody!!

bump i'd like to play the game competitively thanks

would also be open for scout on a chill low open team

disclaimer at the bottom says a 980ti should be enough for 144hz

i remember reading something before on how valve's weapon balancing methodology is solely based on pub usage stats (feel free to correct me on this)

it would explain why in the last patch they buffed both the quickiebomb and the sydney sleeper, both weapons that were very good but not used much in pubs (at least from my experience) and were going to buff the reserve shooter until b4nny told them not to

this disconnect between the game developers and actual players is slightly frightening. What they don't seem to realize is that some weapons like sydney sleeper/reserve shooter are used less in pubs simply because there's such a bad stigma that surrounds the weapon. I guarantee you using either unlock will usually result in you getting flamed in a pub. Not to mention that balancing via pub usage stats is a horrible idea to begin with given how good the average pub player is at this game...

Also soda popper/atomizer aren't as great in pubs because people can't aim well enough to really abuse soda popper and minis/natascha/sentries exist for the atomizer

sorry about the double post but i just realized beggars was also unbanned and that's also a really bad decision imo, it was banned in highlander mostly because you can use it to almost instantly win a midfight due to the double wall jump+skyboxing ability, even with shit like heavy/engie/pyro. take a look at the beginning of this clip for example

you go so fast that i'm highly highly doubtful even 2 scouts can stop the soldier from landing on your med with at least 2 rockets loaded and just delete them

not to mention on process specifically you can still fast rollout with bazooka (slightly harder but doable) and land on the enemy demo with 2/3 rockets already loaded.

no unlock should give u this power, not to mention that after the midfight you can just switch back to the stock and all of the drawbacks of the bazooka are gone

should seriously reconsider this one imo
