Sorry, we'll definitely get to it, I want to uphold a decent level of transparency, we've mostly just been very busy.

And made the TF2 team update the in-game voice codecs :)

^ so good what he makes https://steamcommunity.com/id/bubbba/myworkshopfiles/

Will you give me art lessons ? Cause the picture you just painted is fucking astonishing.

If you watch the demo, and I think you should learn from your mistakes, you will realize that you've decided to feed as soldier five times in a row, then started feeding as pyro (I think you've played 10 minutes of pyro and 17 of soldier?), then your whole team tilted.
What you should have done is: keep a level-head for more than 5 minutes, report the scout who ended up +lefting in spawn so he wouldn't get auto-kicked for AFK, and not assume pocket heals when all you'd be doing is let your medic die after feeding. Five wrongs don't make a right.

Have fun :) !

I'm happy to hear you'll be working on PugChamp, best wishes.
Competition is indeed good, and we'll be continuing development to provide a better service.
FACEIT is one of the last companies who will consider putting down a *hefty* amount of money every month, I absolutely understand that it's not a reason to disregard the frustration you have with the platform, but keep and open mind and check on us every now and then. Nothing stops you from queueing on both platforms.
I'd like to ask everyone who posted here to take a step back and actually introspect, it's been frustrating reading some of these messages.

That's not how it works
Epic Game devs are knowledgeable in their flagship Unreal Engine, they can produce content fast because of their experience using it and the tools they've created to make that process easier

already did on twitter mate, way ahead of ya.

I agree, Alec has been bullying B4nny very hard and it is very wrong.

Avatars have always been enforced, you told me you misunderstood the rules so I assumed they needed to be clearer. (https://i.imgur.com/TGbefH9.png), I did not say the rule changed or would change in any way, and it also turns out that rules are very clear (Displaying the TF2PL class preference avatars on your FACEIT profile, [..] [is] required and failure to comply will result in the following bans)

We have a reporting system in place.

I'd like to point out that people can be part of multiple hubs and that not qualifying to queue doesn't automatically kick them out.
The bigger number in NA Beginner probably comes from people waiting other regions to release and joining whatever they can.
Here are probably more accurate numbers, for each user, I've counted participation to the highest hub, starting with EU (if someone is in NA Beginner, EU Beginner and EU Amateur, EU Amateur will be counted). This doesn't count the South-Americans that can't play, but this is the best I can provide right now.

NA Beginner 2652
EU Beginner 1041
NA Amateur  648
EU Amateur  399
NA Advanced 193
EU Advanced 186
EU Invite   123
NA Invite   91

the thing that offends me most about their website is the use of a super thin, monospace font with super high letter spacing that's also white on quasi-black, it's fucking unreadable.

seriously look at this shit

the bot at the end is fucking golden

Excerpt from an email to erics@valvesoftware.com on March 14th

The Demoman's weapons, aside from the sticky launcher, do not call "SecondaryAttack()" or "DoClassSpecialSkill()" during "ItemBusyFrame()" and while "pOwner->m_nButtons & IN_ATTACK2" returns a truthy value. If they did, the bug commonly referred as "Sticky detonation delay" would be fixed.
You could either generalize that behavior into "CTFWeaponBase::ItemBusyFrame" or specialize "CTFGrenadeLauncher" and "CTFWeaponBaseMelee".

Please fix sticky delay bug

EDIT: also

Pistol/SMG is big RNG too :(

Hey gemm, thanks for the post, I won't respond to all right now of it but you said

Are you sure you're using TF2PL's reporting feature and not FACEIT's reporting feature? We have no way of reading into FACEIT's, I don't remember if there are any plans on letting us, I will ask again. The thumbs-down affect the FBI (in your profile), AFAIK we have no way of reading that either, and I doubt it affects anything in Hubs. Regardless, in Discord there's a #reporting channel with instructions on how to report bad actors, I do encourage adv/inv players to take the 30 seconds it takes to report someone, however I assume most just don't care enough to do so. Please do.

rofl, im seeing a lot of top medics just denigrating this thread without realising that discussion isn't harmful and it's extremely unlikely that xbow is taken off the whitelist out of this
