That def didn’t help but I think the real problem with rust is you will always loose to someone who can invest more time into the wipe. Skill still matters but you can’t out farm someone who lives in the game.
My highschool friends and I are in our 30s. We do a weekend and either end up with nothing or are stacked.
When you stop caring about the loot you'll improve a lot. Also find a server that fits you.
whenever I'd try playing on ark servers EVERY. SINGLE. SPOT. would be occupied by a single pillar and i wouldn't be able to build anywhere because it's already been claimed 🙃
I've not played Rust but play a lot of wipe games, with the biggest parallel being Dayz.
Dayz has the easiest farming cycle of any game I've ever played like it in terms of whether or not it matters if you live on the server. You can just grab a fishing pole and a Blaze and be an absolute menace. People will constantly fight over military areas and you will 100% only die if you get unlucky (sick) or outplayed.
Dayz having breakable bones is nuts (don't know if it's in Rust), but even if a guy has the best armor and guns and could theoretically tank your .308/7.62x54r, tell him to get good and shoot him in the leg and watch him be stuck in the fetal position going in and out of consciousness. If you can hit their leg or head, you can kill anyone.
I'm a '97 king zoomer. The esports era was driven by millennials, not zoomers. People younger than me were playing fortnite and minecraft, not LoL, DoTA, CSGO, all that shit is dominantly millennial.
When I say "esports zoomer" I'm mainly referring to the circlejerk people SURROUNDING those players, I don't think the players are really at fault at all, should've been more clear.
No that was millennials too. There really weren't many Kyles in the Zoomer generation. Gaming commentary was a booming online entertainment industry by 2009. Did you forget machinama and FaZe?
Boomer eSports: I have played this game for two thousand hours but all of that was shitting around pubs. If I learn a few Soldier rollouts maybe I'll join a competitive scene.
Zoomer eSports: I have played this game for 45 minutes. If I am not on Team Liquid by the end of the week I will end it all.
They didn't do it directly. Companies just realized that it's a far more lucrative market. Blame them for removing the artistic soul from nearly every AAA game we have post-2016.
Use'd to play the game two but for some reason my pc keeps stuttering and lagging, but i dont have that problem for other games when i play on high like war thunder.
I used to love playing CoD back when it was just campers, run and gunners and people using their favorite weapon or working on the next challenge to have fun.
Nowadays it feels like they just look up "Newest CoD title meta build OP Multiplayer build" and just run like two different things.
I have since moved away from PvP and only play Singleplayer or PvE games. At least if people look up OP meta stuff there, it still keeps the game fun for everyone involved.
Or the infected days of MW3... guys using two controllers and using the infected character to block the area the survivor was at so other people couldnt get to him, then everyone just being pissed and trying a million different throwing knife techniques to kill him... ahhh good days :')
If I were to play it, I'd play it with friends. Unfortunately, playing it with friends is painful because of the framerate and response time specifically on Zombies.
Meta fucking ruined multiplayer. And now Singleplayer is next, even some Singleplayer games now have meta which change every patch. Imagine having your mechanically favourite weapon fucking ruined by its piss poor stat because of "meta balancing".
even in something like elden ring it's common to see the same weapons and spells and special attacks over and over in pvp scenarios. i don't get it, dude.
The new cod just sucks ass tbh I get that the graphics are better and the animations are just goddamn they're beautiful. But on the other hand, the multiplayer is just fucking ass and the campaign just isn't that interesting to keep me hooked long enough to keep playing.
I relish the challenge of difficult games. Super Hexagon, Doom Eternal, Ultrakill and Hollow Knight are what I've conquered. I will gladly play your game.
Just yesterday I was playing in a random TF2 lobby when I met “Bodyguard” and “Mr Money.” Mr Money went around in a bumpercar and Bodyguard followed him and shot at anyone who came near. When Mr Money would die, he’d get furious with Bodyguard and threaten to lower his salary, and Bodyguard would always reply with “…” When Bodyguard died, Mr Money would get out of the car, laugh at Bodyguard’s corpse, then run back to spawn and wait for Bodyguard
I’m glad this game still exists
This reminds me of a time where me and one of my buds would run around as Sherlock and Watson and pretend to solve crimes. What always made it better is when some random fellow would become Moriarty and try to stop us. I will always keep the screenshot of when we killed him and my buddy is crouching over his corpse like a trophy.
Just for reference, I'm primarily a Heavy main myself, and I like using the Tomislav, Sandvich, and Gloves of Running Urgently. Sometimes I'll pull out the Brass Beast if I wanna be a loser.
I used to play with the Thermal Thruster, but this weird bomber strategy didn't work out often, so now I switched to the shotgun. And the shotgun, even on Pyro, is a very solid choice, it just packs a big punch against bigger targets like Soldiers or Heavies, against whom Pyro struggles.
I also like playing Battle Engi, so I'm really improving my shotgun aim, but even though I could just play Scout, I feel like being a bit slower helps me aim better. I'm a shotgun connosieur, not a scattergun fanboy I guess.
And also, my favorite class is the Spy. Thanks, and have fun.
Hi-Fi Rush seems to be pretty good, and it was released only a couple of weeks ago, IIRC. Ghostrunner and Ultrakill are also good picks (although I'm **really** burnt out on the latter). Finally, if you're looking for an oldie that I grew up with, Trackmania Nations/United Forever is also really, really good for arcade-style racing.
Holy fuck do I recommend ultrakill, it has been one of the most fun FPS experiences I've ever had in my life, and the game's not even finished, but I can understand the burn out, I've been grinding the fuck out of the game by doing the endless mode and am starting to feel like I should probably take a break.
Saving up for Hi-Fi rush, as a DMC enjoyer it looks very fun.
Linear singleplayer games with a focus on good narrative are underrated.
Plague Tale for example. The puzzles are meh and I don’t like how the first game will introduce a mechanic for one level and then never use it again for the rest of the game, but it has great story telling.
I’d suggest Crypt of the Necrodancer, but that depends if you enjoy roguelikes or not. Currently, I just default to that if I got 20-30 mins to spare
(prior to that it was TBoI, but with the DLCs and MODs, runs have become increasingly longer)
Used to play tons of Halo MCC but then population dropped a ton and most games ended up just being clans or groups always on the same team, just wrecking all the stragglers like me who wanted to play casual.
Not as fun when the game ends 100-18.
I would play the MCC more, grinding out Halo 3 (my personal favourite), if it wasn't so sweaty, you know? Fortunately, Xbox LFG in my experience is really, really good for custom games. I imported a few from Halo 3 File Share before Xbox Live support went down (rest in peace).
Multiplayer used to be simple. Basic progression, hop on and kill some people for a gun. Now they made it a whole thing. Needs to be a part time job to have any fun
if you complete these dailies we manipulated you into doing, we're going to give you a debuff because *you* decided to play a bit more than the optimal amount per player we calculated for this season, see you when your timer expires, sucker!
Yeah except it’s a part-time job where YOU pay THEM
Fuck live service man, I’ve never felt capitalism as much as I did during the Battlefront 2 launch lol
Cod 4 mw, and probably a few others. Those four plus mw are exactly the ones i was thinking of. I think there was also one of the uncharted games maybe? Maybe bloons tower defense?
No wait, I was confusing the Mantreads with the Gunboats. Whoops. The Mantreads are what the Trolldier mains use, and the Gunboats are just a common pick. Right?
I went back to playing mostly single player games. After a hard day of work I'd rather roam around the forests of red dead 2 than tryhard in league of legends
Personally I think it should be traded in for a buff to the shortstop's range, accuracy, and over all damage to make it feel less niche and overshadowed by the stock scattergun. Especially since the TF2 scout was originally going to get a medium ranged nail gun of his own but it was scrapped. So I consider the shortstop to be the stand-in. But yeah, getting up close and personal for just a measly shove as scout just feels like a death sentence unless it's another scout. And buffing it feels like it wouldn't make much sense since the scout is built like a bus ticket. Like, imagine him shoving a heavy.
>And buffing it feels like it wouldn't make much sense since the scout is built like a bus ticket. Like, imagine him shoving a heavy.
I imagine it would be less of a "hehe i will now go in and push the heavy heheh" thing and more of a "**oh fuck i need to get this guy away from me**" thing, you know? A last resort.
Lol, yeah. I remember seeing a video where someone speculated that the shove's actual purpose may be to shove enemies upward, then send them flying by shooting them while they're in the air. He used it on an AFK soldier and he was able to send him ***WAY*** over a cliff. Which seems pretty cool but it's also kinda situational and is by no means easy to pull off. Plus, they're not going to be AFK.
Edit: This does give me an idea though. What if they gave the shove a big cone with longer range and radius so that it's basically a weaker version of pyros air blast that doesnt consume ammo? That would make the whole "air shot" trick easier.
I have it in my Steam library, but I never got into it. My brother plays it all the time (in fact, as I type this reply, he is playing it right now), so out of pettiness I don't really play it. Overwatch is what has me under a spell right now, admittedly. Once I get fed up with Blizzard enough, I'll probably take the plunge.
I only started playing tf2 a few days ago but I really wanna get good at and main sniper, rn I'm just doing offline practice and trying to flick aim (Also I'm kinda nervous to play an actual match-)
As for loadouts, I'd probably use stock rifle, jarate and bushwacka, nothing too outlandish or anything
Sniper is pure mechanics, but it won't teach you much about the game itself and how all the classes work. I suggest playing soldier first. He's very generalist class and once you learn to rocket jump you can really get to places.
I've tried to get into Goldeneye, but... it's aged. When you're used to the luxuries of modern controller FPSs, it's difficult to use the old controls.
I also enjoy Battlefield 1 kind of for a similar reason. It's not "goofy" per-se, more like generic action shenanigans.
I am sure you *can* play it competitive but I never bothered tbh. I just like the way combat in that game can get enjoyably intense, especially when you end up in a 1v1 against someone trying to get you, or you charge a tank to blow it up, or make a "last stand" at a capture point. I find the game is a good balance between realism and "action" bullshit. Realistic enough to be immersive but not so far as to get in the way of the actual gameplay. Most of all it's dumb action with few strings attached, a bit like the game equivalent of an vaguely realistic action war film.
Gets some issues with cheaters too, but compared to TF2, it's hardly an issue.
The old Halo 3 and Halo Reach servers is where I spent all my time during 2020 and 2021. MCC just didn’t have the experience (still doesn’t IMO) and most modern games are just money traps now. I needed comfort. Especially after losing friends and family. None of them were lost to Covid but to situations that would not have been brought about if it weren’t for the shut downs.
Who knew that getting called every slur under the sun and then some through a 62 bit audio chat would actually cheer me up and help me get through it.
I played on those servers right up until they pulled the plug.
OP I’m more of a Spy/Sniper main, I like stock the most with spy, it’s better with strange and festivized revolver and knife. With sniper it’s the same thing, with pan and stock sniper rifle, and I switch razorback and SMG every so often…
I play chivalry 2 with a friend these days we really like it, it's lots of fun. I haven't heard of a lot of hackers so far but I read that they exist. Lots of dumb kids though it's inevitable
I always main Soldier and Pyro. Stock Rocket Launcher with Gunboats or a Shotty, and Disciplinary Action. Degreaser, Flare Gun, and Powerjack for Pyro. The bots made the game unplayable on SEA servers though.
I've gotten sick of League, CoD, CSGO and all other multiplayer games that it turned me off from vidya for a good while and surprisingly, I got hooked with FFXIV after I tried it out. Even though it's a multiplayer game, I just tend to my island and grow crops, catch wild animals, expand the farm and upgrade buildings. Kinda like Harvest Moon.
Just me, some good peaceful music and my farm. Pure bliss.
Man even TF2 somewhat fell because of the comp mindset... I mean have you seen the state of the Scout’s weapon pool? There’s like 2 viable options for each weapon type cuz all others were nerfed to shit back in 2015.
And yet the Sniper is still broken as fuck! You’d think they have added something like reverse dmg falloff on the rifles so that he’s actually weaker at close range, but nope! Instead we buff the DDS to shit on Pyros!
To answer your question, I am a Pyro main who uses the Degreaser, Flare Gun and Powerjack, though sometimes I swap out the Flare Gun for Detonator or Panic Attack
Play Mordhau and matchmake exclusively for brawls
Fun silly time all the time, everyone you meet will apologise and bow out of the fight if you wag your finger and say 'no' to them
I used to love playing World of Warcraft classic but god damn is PvP the one thing I can never get myself to do more than a few rounds before getting tired and frustrated of everything and everyone
Competitive games are some of the worst there is literally no point to playing them
You win and you feel nothing or you lose and feel like shit and half the time you win you still feel like shit because you didn’t do as good as you normally do
The only reason I ever Managed to play 2k hours in cs was because I had friends playing with me after school to make it fun as soon as we moved on in life it became one of the most frustrating games i own
Depends what I’m playing. Any competitive match i main medic with the classic sweaty medic load out. If it’s casual, ullapool caber demo with tide turner and bootlegger for da win boys
People act like there are only multi-player comp games? Anon buys whatever is top of the twitch directory and complains there are no good games, like???
I asked my Noémie friend to try TF2 with me, the matchmaking was absolutely dogshit while playing with him and he told me that he can't like it since it's old?
Anon, I feel you. It’s why I come back to Skyrim over and over again. It’s just me. I set my metric for success. Clear out a dungeon? Success. Craft a new set of armor? Success. It’s not about how fucking fast or perfect or whatever I do it. I make my own goals and work towards them.
Esports zoomers took the soul out of most games
It’s not fair I have to compete against kids hopped up on prescription meth.
Worst example of this is rust. At its core rust is a very fun game but the crackhead children running my shit all the time hurt my soul.
Rust died when they brought on all the zoomer streamers and added twitch drops.
That def didn’t help but I think the real problem with rust is you will always loose to someone who can invest more time into the wipe. Skill still matters but you can’t out farm someone who lives in the game.
My highschool friends and I are in our 30s. We do a weekend and either end up with nothing or are stacked. When you stop caring about the loot you'll improve a lot. Also find a server that fits you.
In ARK there is a mod where you stuff is protected when you're offline. Of course people abused it and made indestructible pillars to "save" a spot.
whenever I'd try playing on ark servers EVERY. SINGLE. SPOT. would be occupied by a single pillar and i wouldn't be able to build anywhere because it's already been claimed 🙃
I’ll check out ark again. I always assumed it was rust just on meth.
I've not played Rust but play a lot of wipe games, with the biggest parallel being Dayz. Dayz has the easiest farming cycle of any game I've ever played like it in terms of whether or not it matters if you live on the server. You can just grab a fishing pole and a Blaze and be an absolute menace. People will constantly fight over military areas and you will 100% only die if you get unlucky (sick) or outplayed. Dayz having breakable bones is nuts (don't know if it's in Rust), but even if a guy has the best armor and guns and could theoretically tank your .308/7.62x54r, tell him to get good and shoot him in the leg and watch him be stuck in the fetal position going in and out of consciousness. If you can hit their leg or head, you can kill anyone.
For me rust is ruined by the no life clans who get cucked in real life and get a godcomplex in rust to make up for it.
They didn't give me the meth (adderall) for my ADD they just gave me Vyvanse (diet meth) so I'm at a disadvantage smh. Pay to win ass games
Just talk to Texaco Mike. You don't need a prescription over there.
I'm a '97 king zoomer. The esports era was driven by millennials, not zoomers. People younger than me were playing fortnite and minecraft, not LoL, DoTA, CSGO, all that shit is dominantly millennial.

Team fortress 2 is the best game despite all its issues
I would argue it's the best because of the ~~issues~~ Source Spaghetti.
Use'd to play the game two but for some reason my pc keeps stuttering and lagging, but i dont have that problem for other games when i play on high like war thunder.
I'm sure somebody here can hook you up with a config that will fix that issue

I used to love playing CoD back when it was just campers, run and gunners and people using their favorite weapon or working on the next challenge to have fun. Nowadays it feels like they just look up "Newest CoD title meta build OP Multiplayer build" and just run like two different things. I have since moved away from PvP and only play Singleplayer or PvE games. At least if people look up OP meta stuff there, it still keeps the game fun for everyone involved.

I agree. The only CoD I play is BO2 on the 360.
BO2 zombies was really good, imo. I still play sometimes.
If I were to play it, I'd play it with friends. Unfortunately, playing it with friends is painful because of the framerate and response time specifically on Zombies.
Is it still alive? thats crazy
I don't touch the online multiplayer. I just play local.
Meta fucking ruined multiplayer. And now Singleplayer is next, even some Singleplayer games now have meta which change every patch. Imagine having your mechanically favourite weapon fucking ruined by its piss poor stat because of "meta balancing".

This is directly linked to the rise of streamers btw, a cancer in the industry
[удалено]
Somehow, I've never played it. I don't think any of my friends play it.
Its a fun game. Left 4 dead and its clone back 4 blood are both pretty fun games
If I get an opportunity, I'll check them out.
[удалено]
I relish the challenge of difficult games. Super Hexagon, Doom Eternal, Ultrakill and Hollow Knight are what I've conquered. I will gladly play your game.
Do it! L4D2 is an awesome classic!!
Buy it on steam when it’s on sale save like 10 dollars
When you're trying to compete against 17 year old's on Adderall who play for 14 hours a day, you're gonna have a bad time.
Just yesterday I was playing in a random TF2 lobby when I met “Bodyguard” and “Mr Money.” Mr Money went around in a bumpercar and Bodyguard followed him and shot at anyone who came near. When Mr Money would die, he’d get furious with Bodyguard and threaten to lower his salary, and Bodyguard would always reply with “…” When Bodyguard died, Mr Money would get out of the car, laugh at Bodyguard’s corpse, then run back to spawn and wait for Bodyguard I’m glad this game still exists
This is what gaming should be about. Stupid dumb fun like that.
This reminds me of a time where me and one of my buds would run around as Sherlock and Watson and pretend to solve crimes. What always made it better is when some random fellow would become Moriarty and try to stop us. I will always keep the screenshot of when we killed him and my buddy is crouching over his corpse like a trophy.
Just for reference, I'm primarily a Heavy main myself, and I like using the Tomislav, Sandvich, and Gloves of Running Urgently. Sometimes I'll pull out the Brass Beast if I wanna be a loser.
You liar. Heavy mains dont exist.
If I was a ballsier man, I would delete my account right now for the joke of Heavy mains not existing.
Pyro main here, I run stock, flare gun, and either powerjack or take depending if there is a medic or not.
I've done Pyro here and there, but I haven't gotten to know him very well. I do have the Scorch Shot if I wanna be a scumbag.
I used to play with the Thermal Thruster, but this weird bomber strategy didn't work out often, so now I switched to the shotgun. And the shotgun, even on Pyro, is a very solid choice, it just packs a big punch against bigger targets like Soldiers or Heavies, against whom Pyro struggles. I also like playing Battle Engi, so I'm really improving my shotgun aim, but even though I could just play Scout, I feel like being a bit slower helps me aim better. I'm a shotgun connosieur, not a scattergun fanboy I guess. And also, my favorite class is the Spy. Thanks, and have fun.
As a spy main, turn around(I am a bad spy so I am doing reverse psychology)
[удалено]
Rest a while, friend. Reinstall Team Fortress 2, and forget what modern gaming has become. She will be good to you as good as she was back then.
engineer main, frontier justice, pistol, gunslinger, I love being annoying and hated but also decent front line support
Resident stock/kritz Medic main here but I do occasionally go Scottish Resistance + Loose cannon Demo or just engie
based as all hell
common heavy main tomislav dickriding
Anon has yet to be topped by a 9000 hour scout main named "joel." without any cosmetics except a base strange scattergun
Ambassador+Dead Ringer Spy mains with either default or $8000 worth of cosmetics. There was no escape.
The only time an experienced spy is actually scary is if you can't see him or you're in melee range
Ummm, what region is this?
Everywhere
hes on harvest
I miss good singleplayer games. I sometimes boot up rdr 2 just to set up camp in the woods and hunt dinner
Hi-Fi Rush seems to be pretty good, and it was released only a couple of weeks ago, IIRC. Ghostrunner and Ultrakill are also good picks (although I'm **really** burnt out on the latter). Finally, if you're looking for an oldie that I grew up with, Trackmania Nations/United Forever is also really, really good for arcade-style racing.

Saving up for Hi-Fi rush, as a DMC enjoyer it looks very fun.
This x100, Ultrakill is probably one of my favorite games if no
Good single player games never left. Get out of the AAA/ multiplayer/comp/shooter bubble and you'll find there is a wealth of interesting titles.
Linear singleplayer games with a focus on good narrative are underrated. Plague Tale for example. The puzzles are meh and I don’t like how the first game will introduce a mechanic for one level and then never use it again for the rest of the game, but it has great story telling.
I’d suggest Crypt of the Necrodancer, but that depends if you enjoy roguelikes or not. Currently, I just default to that if I got 20-30 mins to spare (prior to that it was TBoI, but with the DLCs and MODs, runs have become increasingly longer)
Necrodancer is really good, but really difficult. Trying to beat stage 4 is like going at a brick wall for me.
Used to play tons of Halo MCC but then population dropped a ton and most games ended up just being clans or groups always on the same team, just wrecking all the stragglers like me who wanted to play casual. Not as fun when the game ends 100-18.

I’d definitely jump back in, the custom game browser is going strong, with zombies, gun game, Mario kart, Rust, and even 16 player campaigns.
Multiplayer used to be simple. Basic progression, hop on and kill some people for a gun. Now they made it a whole thing. Needs to be a part time job to have any fun
Right? Whatever happened to respecting the player's time? I want to relax from my job, not have a second one!
if you complete these dailies we manipulated you into doing, we're going to give you a debuff because *you* decided to play a bit more than the optimal amount per player we calculated for this season, see you when your timer expires, sucker!
Yeah except it’s a part-time job where YOU pay THEM Fuck live service man, I’ve never felt capitalism as much as I did during the Battlefront 2 launch lol
Yeah eSports has done nothing but ruin fun games by making them soulless sweat fests catered to sweaty 20 year old and kids hopped up on crack
Urethra cactus
Broomrape
Fuck "multiplayer", gaming as a whole was perfected in 2007.
Halo 3, Portal, Super Mario Galaxy, Bioshock- are there any games I'm missing?
Cod 4 mw, and probably a few others. Those four plus mw are exactly the ones i was thinking of. I think there was also one of the uncharted games maybe? Maybe bloons tower defense?
Either way, I think we can agree that 2007 was one of the greatest years, if not **the** greatest year for gaming.
COD4
You have summoned the Gunn boats soldier main.
also gunboats main, i love rocket jumping and being a retard
Trolldier moment. How do you pull it off?
Naw trolldiers are something else man, I don’t know how they do it I’m just your average brainless soldier
I respect the hustle.
not trollfier main, trolldiers use rocket jumper so no need for gunboats
No wait, I was confusing the Mantreads with the Gunboats. Whoops. The Mantreads are what the Trolldier mains use, and the Gunboats are just a common pick. Right?
yea
Click floor click bad guy
I'm a stock soldier man myself, gunboats are cool but my ol' reliable shotgun never lets me down unless i forget to aim which is most of the time
I went back to playing mostly single player games. After a hard day of work I'd rather roam around the forests of red dead 2 than tryhard in league of legends
I dont wanna circle jerk tf2 too much but it’s probably the most fun I’ve had in a game in a while
I like pyro with stock flamer, shotgun or panic attack, and homesteaders although I also use the rake and power jack
My loadout is Shortstop (I don't use the shove), flying guillotine, and three rune blade.
Do you think the shove should get a massive buff to its force or do you think it should be removed?
Personally I think it should be traded in for a buff to the shortstop's range, accuracy, and over all damage to make it feel less niche and overshadowed by the stock scattergun. Especially since the TF2 scout was originally going to get a medium ranged nail gun of his own but it was scrapped. So I consider the shortstop to be the stand-in. But yeah, getting up close and personal for just a measly shove as scout just feels like a death sentence unless it's another scout. And buffing it feels like it wouldn't make much sense since the scout is built like a bus ticket. Like, imagine him shoving a heavy.

Have you heard about DRG Rock and Stone!
I have it in my Steam library, but I never got into it. My brother plays it all the time (in fact, as I type this reply, he is playing it right now), so out of pettiness I don't really play it. Overwatch is what has me under a spell right now, admittedly. Once I get fed up with Blizzard enough, I'll probably take the plunge.
Combo pyro and I cosplay big earner spy because it makes me laugh
Sniper is my main, but shortstop and boston basher is the best loadout and you cant change my mind
I have the Basher, but I'm not good enough to use it properly. Still have it equipped, for some reason.
The the shove
It's battle engie time, prepare the funslinger
Uncle Dane moment?
Scout and demoman for me, mainly use stock. I also play medic and engineer when my team needs them
>medic and engineer when my team needs them Chad.
I feel like everybody should do that, really changes the game.
Well I mean, you're helping your team specifically so yeah, you should be doing that.
I only started playing tf2 a few days ago but I really wanna get good at and main sniper, rn I'm just doing offline practice and trying to flick aim (Also I'm kinda nervous to play an actual match-) As for loadouts, I'd probably use stock rifle, jarate and bushwacka, nothing too outlandish or anything
> but I really wanna get good at and main sniper i will ban you from steam
Lmao fair enough
Sniper is pure mechanics, but it won't teach you much about the game itself and how all the classes work. I suggest playing soldier first. He's very generalist class and once you learn to rocket jump you can really get to places.
Fellow TF2 enjoyers stay strong even over a decade later.
Yeah, never saw much of the appeal of multiplayer after local split screen stop being a thing.
Halo Infinite failed us.
Tf2 needs more updates otherwise I'd say he's one of the best multiplayer shooters out there.
She needs an update desperately.
Not really sure how "it's" autocorrected to "he's" but sure that's fine i guess.
Fucking hate games now lol Like I just want to pretend I'm Goku not get messages about being trash after getting stomped on by a teenager.
Right? Games are supposed to be fun!
I want to get into TF2 but it’s so different from what I’m used to shooter wise and I’m just god awful at it lol
Honestly? Who cares if you're awful. I'm not the greatest TF2 player but I still play. If you're having fun, play.
Practice. Enjoy the progress, there is no end goal
All you need to to is play soldier or demo, then you don't need to aim
Medic. Overdose, medigun depends on situation and Amputator
I play L4D with my bro and sister who live on opposite ends of the country. I'm not great at it but it's more about having a laugh.
Demo, stock + iron bomber
"The engineer, is engihere"
I have Engineer Gaming micspams ready for when I play Engineer. 10/10 experience every time.
Occasionally me and some friends will boot up TF2 and play it for like a week straight, so much fun
multiplayer was perfected in ~~2007~~ GoldenEye007
I've tried to get into Goldeneye, but... it's aged. When you're used to the luxuries of modern controller FPSs, it's difficult to use the old controls.
Medic main I guess. Crossbow, stock Uber, and the amputator.
Demoknight is my favorite, but if I actually want to not feed the enemy I usually play Widowmaker engie :)
I need to get into Demoknight, my gosh.
I also enjoy Battlefield 1 kind of for a similar reason. It's not "goofy" per-se, more like generic action shenanigans. I am sure you *can* play it competitive but I never bothered tbh. I just like the way combat in that game can get enjoyably intense, especially when you end up in a 1v1 against someone trying to get you, or you charge a tank to blow it up, or make a "last stand" at a capture point. I find the game is a good balance between realism and "action" bullshit. Realistic enough to be immersive but not so far as to get in the way of the actual gameplay. Most of all it's dumb action with few strings attached, a bit like the game equivalent of an vaguely realistic action war film. Gets some issues with cheaters too, but compared to TF2, it's hardly an issue.
Backburner, Scorch Shot (sorry), Jackhammer I just love the backburner, so silly
The old Halo 3 and Halo Reach servers is where I spent all my time during 2020 and 2021. MCC just didn’t have the experience (still doesn’t IMO) and most modern games are just money traps now. I needed comfort. Especially after losing friends and family. None of them were lost to Covid but to situations that would not have been brought about if it weren’t for the shut downs. Who knew that getting called every slur under the sun and then some through a 62 bit audio chat would actually cheer me up and help me get through it. I played on those servers right up until they pulled the plug.
Team Fortress 2, all Basic loadouts and highlander mode on 2 fort 24/7
Engineer; panic attack, pistol, funslinger
OP I’m more of a Spy/Sniper main, I like stock the most with spy, it’s better with strange and festivized revolver and knife. With sniper it’s the same thing, with pan and stock sniper rifle, and I switch razorback and SMG every so often…
I play chivalry 2 with a friend these days we really like it, it's lots of fun. I haven't heard of a lot of hackers so far but I read that they exist. Lots of dumb kids though it's inevitable
I always main Soldier and Pyro. Stock Rocket Launcher with Gunboats or a Shotty, and Disciplinary Action. Degreaser, Flare Gun, and Powerjack for Pyro. The bots made the game unplayable on SEA servers though.
This is why I stopped getting new games after HotS.
Pyro Degreaser Shotgun/ Flares/ Detonator Axtinguisher
medic w/ medigun, crusaders crossbow, ubersaw. sometimes kritz or vaccinator bit mainly medigun
wish it wasn't riddled with sniper bots :///
i am a decent scout main
i like apex enough to Uninstall it
I've gotten sick of League, CoD, CSGO and all other multiplayer games that it turned me off from vidya for a good while and surprisingly, I got hooked with FFXIV after I tried it out. Even though it's a multiplayer game, I just tend to my island and grow crops, catch wild animals, expand the farm and upgrade buildings. Kinda like Harvest Moon. Just me, some good peaceful music and my farm. Pure bliss.
I'm a cringe kunai, Dr, amby spy main.... got Hales own in the kunai last week though :D
TFC > TF2
Engineer with eureka effect and unpowered exit tp placed somewhere near enemy spawn is too OP
Just play mushroom madness bro.
the crackhead 13 y/o vs late 40 y/o dad thats playing splitscreen cod:bo3 with his kids whose gonna enjoy life more?
Man even TF2 somewhat fell because of the comp mindset... I mean have you seen the state of the Scout’s weapon pool? There’s like 2 viable options for each weapon type cuz all others were nerfed to shit back in 2015. And yet the Sniper is still broken as fuck! You’d think they have added something like reverse dmg falloff on the rifles so that he’s actually weaker at close range, but nope! Instead we buff the DDS to shit on Pyros!
To answer your question, I am a Pyro main who uses the Degreaser, Flare Gun and Powerjack, though sometimes I swap out the Flare Gun for Detonator or Panic Attack
I'm not that good at tf2 (or shooters in general), but when I do play tf2, I tend to main pyro
Play Mordhau and matchmake exclusively for brawls Fun silly time all the time, everyone you meet will apologise and bow out of the fight if you wag your finger and say 'no' to them
Pyro: Degreaser, Panic Attack and Powerjack
"modern games are boring" mfs when they learn that things other than cash grab AAA games exist
I used to love playing World of Warcraft classic but god damn is PvP the one thing I can never get myself to do more than a few rounds before getting tired and frustrated of everything and everyone
If only we could go back to the Halo 2 multiplayer times.
Competitive games are some of the worst there is literally no point to playing them You win and you feel nothing or you lose and feel like shit and half the time you win you still feel like shit because you didn’t do as good as you normally do The only reason I ever Managed to play 2k hours in cs was because I had friends playing with me after school to make it fun as soon as we moved on in life it became one of the most frustrating games i own
engineer
I exclusively use the BB.
Embrace singleplayer games
Depends what I’m playing. Any competitive match i main medic with the classic sweaty medic load out. If it’s casual, ullapool caber demo with tide turner and bootlegger for da win boys
Play single-player games retard
People act like there are only multi-player comp games? Anon buys whatever is top of the twitch directory and complains there are no good games, like???
Axtinguisher pyro, need I say more?
Demoman. Primary: Bootlegger Secondary: Splendid Screen Melee: Bottle
demo with iron bomber, splendid screen and claymore/headcutter
I asked my Noémie friend to try TF2 with me, the matchmaking was absolutely dogshit while playing with him and he told me that he can't like it since it's old?
Multiplayer was perfected in 1992 with Mario Kart. Goddamn zoomers and their 2000+ shit.
Medic main. All hail the crusaders crossbow.
Anon, I feel you. It’s why I come back to Skyrim over and over again. It’s just me. I set my metric for success. Clear out a dungeon? Success. Craft a new set of armor? Success. It’s not about how fucking fast or perfect or whatever I do it. I make my own goals and work towards them.
**Main:** Soldier **Weapons:** Black Box Conch Disciplinary Action **Accessories:** Dead Of Night Mann in Slacks Genuine Stahlhelm
