Thread 720485304

Why did you stop playing TF2?

I had to go to work.

>>720485304 (OP)
I never did stop

>>720485304 (OP)
i had to poop

After it became clear that Valve didn't care about the game anymore

>>720485673
this wouldn't have stopped a real fan

>>720485304 (OP)
Too broke and depressed to consider building a new pc.

>>720485304 (OP)
I've had enough after 1200 hours
The magic is gone, time to move on

>>720485304 (OP)
Too many trannies

>>720485304 (OP)
i'm not good at it

they stopped charging money for the privilege of playing it

>>720485304 (OP)
uncletopia was full and I didn't want to wait.

>>720485304 (OP)
I wound up getting caught up in the other old Valve game.

>>720485304 (OP)
i got bored of playing 2fort/payload over and over surrounded by people who didn't play the game in the early days and just use it as a medium for socializing

>Casual
>Terrible balance, so many fun sidegrades and weird weapons left to rot because of trying to pander to the '''competitive tf2 community'''
>map pool being bloated with garbage
>The nonstop wave of terrible cosmetics/war paints/hats
>Valve's embarrassingly pathetic ambivalence towards towards the bot nightmare
>The community's complete inability to actually stand up to Valve beyond signing internet petitions
It was great fun, but I've moved on. I've played so many amazing single player games since then, and it feels phenomenal.

>>720485304 (OP)
All the new guns really fucked with the flow of the game.

>>720485304 (OP)
Very subtle, OP. I like it.

One of the most catastrophic updates in gaming history

>>720485304 (OP)
>Degreaser rework that made Phlog the best way to play Pyro
>Caberknight killed
>Sticky/Rocket Jumper no longer a weapon for gardener + goomba stomp memes

I just stopped caring when all the fuck around stuff was gutted.

Going 999-1 every game isn't fun, everyone who was good at TF2 abandoned it in 2014.

>>720485304 (OP)
l4d came out

>>720485304 (OP)
I stopped finding crates & keys, and I was sick of all the "fun" new stuff being limited events or new set effects
This was over 15 years ago, so..

>>720485304 (OP)
I played 20 hours an concluded that I was too late

>>720487158
>The community's complete inability to actually stand up to Valve beyond signing internet petitions
To be fair, what else can they do other than protest and boycott crates? Firebomb valve HQ?

I don't like team based games.

>>720485304 (OP)
it insists upon itself

>>720485304 (OP)
They tried turning it into a competitive shooter. I'd been playing less and less, but that was the final straw.

>>720485304 (OP)
What the fuck are you saying?

I never played it. I just watched meet the team and funny gmod videos. By the time I got myself good enough internet for it it was widely considered dead and mired in hat garbage. I don't know any of the deviantart tier comic lore or anything.

>>720485304 (OP)
Went to prison in 2009 (armed robbery, because someone always asks). I got out in 2022, and it was well past dead.

>>720488764

>>720485304 (OP)
the game took a huge dive when it went f2p.
it made the only people still playing were poorfags too late to the party, and cheating/botting became 100% unpunishable.

>>720488869
>Catposter is brown and underage
Yep. Very uncommon occurance.

Go back anytime.

>>720485304 (OP)
Your pic looks like that old singer with that booty jam song

>>720488438
Form a party /v/an pirate crew and take Gabe hostage at sea by boarding his yacht, obviously.

It's too bloated with cosmetics and not really as fun as it used to be. I moved on.

>>720485304 (OP)
when hat collecting f2p faggots like you ruined it

>>720485304 (OP)
troons took over my preferred server
just like my preferred ss13 server
people say women invading nerd spaces is bad, just wait until your friend dave now goes by dafne

deadlock is better.

>>720489023
I'm 28 and white though. I was just poor and uneducated for the longest time because divorce.

>>720485304 (OP)
brother moved away, used to do MvM together

the community became really really fucking gay and the average player's skill level matches that of someone who only ever fucks around with 1 class dying over and over on harvest, because that is genuinely all they do

seeing entire servers filled with people who look like they can barely control their characters is fucking weird

Based Dafne

Around 2015/2016.
MYM killed the game, ruined Valve matchmaking, and brought in a bunch of nerfs that ruined all the fun weapons.
Community took a deep dive as well and hasn't been the same.

the video is exactly what the title said it would be and i am satisfied for watching it. thanks anon

I was worried I was going to be the only one who noticed, the comments section's getting spicy on that video.

>>720490576
I wouldn't resist. He's a faggot for doing so.

the weeabootique shut down. I miss it

>>720485304 (OP)
My favorite community servers stopped hosting.

Jiggly's Funhouse had the most horrible community but the sourcecraft+starcraft 2 mod made it enjoyable.

>>720489034
What unc yapping abt?

I stopped when they introduced monetization to the game I had already paid for

My account got hacked and they stole a decade's worth of items

I will stop paying TF2 when I'm dead. Unless they have it in hell, then I'm playing for the rest of eternity. Satan himself will have to pull my nasty, sweaty ass off my chair to remove me from the last active server.

>>720487298
Ok I just found out what you're talking about. What the fuck.

is that Shiv from the new Valve game Deadlock?

>>720485304 (OP)
I largely lost interest when they started adding alternate weapons and cosmetics. Every online match was instantly full of people trying to unlock things instead of actually playing the game.

>>720485304 (OP)
Rare opinion: 24 players being the standard server capacity is honestly too high. TF2's gameplay would be much more meaningful with 22 or 20 players instead.

Harvest 4 lyf

>>720485304 (OP)
I didn't. Still fun as fuck to this day.

>>720485304 (OP)

I'm 30 if you're wondering

>>720485304 (OP)
I only play it like once or twice a week nowadays, it's called moderation

>>720491614
Nah you're right. But 100 player servers demonstrated that some people in the playerbase unironically think more = better.

This. The golden years of TF2 were between release and F2P update, and it was getting increasingly shittier the more we moved towards F2P.

They added a cash shop.

Found the comp tranny. 12 seconds max.

>>720485304 (OP)
Skial changed their server routing so now we get routed through fucking East Asia which means 250-300 ping instead of directly to bongistan (50-120) which is much closer geographically to the Middle East.
Not gonna play on Casual because everybody's a fucking shitter. Not going to touch Competitive because it's soulless garbage.

At least Deadlock is fun.

>>720492785

>>720492926
Most maps have a respawn wave timer of 12 seconds. If you dont want a respawn timer of 20 seconds dont play on maps with long respawn waves.
If you miss the bus you have to wait for the next wave. This puts players together so they can get to the front line as a unit instead of as a dribble of piss that walks into the same chokepoint to die unable to make an impact.

>>720492741
Respawn times isn't about punishing the player. It's mainly about ensuring a team is actually able to win the objective if killing enough players creates enough space to do so. There's a reason no-respawn servers tend to be the ones running "who gives a fuck about the objective" maps like 2fort or hightower.

>>720492926
tf2's fucking vanilla a/d maps have long respawn timers because red needs a long fucking respawn in order to be able to lose.
are you retards joking? there's nothing about it relating to the fan-made competitive modes

>>720493181
wait what

>>720493352
>expecting the beaners in this game to know how to coordinate
Again, ask me how I know you're a comp tranny? Never on the community servers that I played on, which held a rotations of various maps and game modes, was no respawn an issue. If the map was bad, no respawn showed this. If good, no respawn didn't matter.

zero interest in hats and an item economy connected to RMT

>>720493565
see
>>720493691
You do not need long respawn timers, shitter. Literally git gud and learn how to make an actual tactical push.

People will say Mannconomy, but it was Meet Your Match that specifically killed the game for me. I did not want to play fucking Overwatch, Valve, nor did I want to experience any of the extraneous mechanical BS that you blatantly copied from it. The hats were one thing, but at least they didn't affect gameplay.

MYM revealed that the game was clearly in the middle of collapsing under its own weight in an effort to catch up with the modern industry, and it just stopped being fun.

>>720493782
you do not understand the game's design. at all.

I don't remember the game felling like this. Half the players behave like tryhards and the rounds are too fast. Custom servers are the way, but there are less of them now.

>>720485304 (OP)
i play for a few hours until im not having fun then quit.

>>720485304 (OP)
Because for some reason trying to join any server just freezes my computer for a few minutes before crashing and I can't be bothered to find a fix for it.

>>720494125
It's a TF2 thread, you schizo. Everyone's talking about TF2.

>>720485304 (OP)
I've never played it. always looking like playdoll shit for toddlers.

I was 20 years old when Steam came out btw, looked like kiddy shit.

>>720485304 (OP)
I had to stop when the snipers started spinning like a record baby right round round round.

Everyone in my community server moved on to dota 2 back in 2014.
I also thought that matchmaking system they added killed community servers for good

Had falling out with my friends and no longer want to really play it as it just makes me miss them while also wishing they where dead.

>>720494608
Story?

>>720485304 (OP)
When they added different weapons to the game I significantly slowed down how much I was playing. When they added the Mannconomy update I quit completely.

>>720494153
this, she started this v-tuber shit
and this board supported it back then too

>>720485304 (OP)
After some update years back it just started to run like shit and kept crashing. I literally couldn't play so eventually I just quit.

>>720495264
If you wanna see some real schizos, go to /vt/

>>720485304 (OP)
Servers I used to play on shut down
Fuck playing with randoms

>>720494063
No, you don't.
One can design anything.
Bad maps don't exist per se, as badness of any map has to do with its intendent play style.
A map so specific it only can't work with no respawn is not bad. It simply is.

>>720485304 (OP)
Had a bit of fun with the summer update before I uninstalled it to make room for other games. A few months ago once the bots were finally purged, I ended up getting into MvM and got an aussie scattergun in 30-something tours. Might reinstall for Scream Fortress if my friends are down to clown.

OP was referencing Charlie Kirk's assassination, not furries. That's what anon is saying.

>>720496850
The video that's from is a furry thing, retard.

>>720496850
Yeah doesn't matter though, it was way too subtle.

>>720496949
And got posted because the line in the video happened to have been on the assassin's bullet casing.

>>720493635
New friends think that's the original of notice your bulge. Sad times...

Haven't touched the game in years. Autobalance system kept fucking me over and I got real tired of that bullshit. Hacker sniper bots galore. Quickplay was dead and the community servers at the time were also dead besides the 32 player 2fort ones. Supposedly the hacker problem is pretty much gone but I can't be assed to install the game anymore despite it probably only taking like 5 minutes to do so.

>>720488895
Was being a criminal and completely torpedoing your life worth it?

>>720497286
The bots are gone. Old fashioned manual hackers are still plentiful.

>>720487158
Trvke.
Also the game looks & runs worse now because they keep shoveling in new sparkly hats for the 80 people that actively participate in trading hats.

>>720485304 (OP)
first time because I got bored (just shortly after they rolled out crates)
second time because I saw what they did to matchmaking, Pauling constantly asking to pwease buy some dogshit battlepass for more chores and of course the spinning sniper faggots

>>720485304 (OP)
Because I was too good and got bored, and finding other good autists to form some hylander team did not appeal to me. When you spend 4000 hours playing the same game eventually you get tired of it.

>>720488869
Based. Youtube is the only way to enjoy TF2.

>>720485304 (OP)
I’m not a pcfag and the family computer we used to have sucked ass. I turned everything down to the lowest setting and the game still struggled to play but I had fun. If I had a better pc I’d likely play more but it’s not worth it for one game, especially one that the devs rarely put out content for

>>720494228
I'm in Australia and only see like 2 active servers at a time

>>720485304 (OP)
Played some today

I did stop during the bot aids, never been a fan of meet your match update. I preferred rollover servers and having proper team topper rivals to duke it out with

Now it just feels like a sea of forgettable randoms to shoot

I just never found it that fun

At least the bots are gone

>>720503535
That's what you think. They could be in this very room. They could be you. They could be me. They could even be

I'm low-key mad I once deleted a bunch of mann co crates back when I didn't have inventory space, now a bunch of them are worth a couple bucks and I could've opened them without having to shell out 2 dollars per crate fuck me

>>720503649
Well yeah, there are still idle bots with konata pfp but those are not as annoying

So what can be done about this Dane manthing?

>>720485304 (OP)
Private servers with fun maps died, and I had no interest in vanilla rotation valve maps where everyone either huddles in the center of the map being "friendlies" or trying to grind out boring contracts.

>>720503649
Well no anon, literally nobody is playing tf2, the 1mil "subscriber" TF2ber that for some reason only has the same handful of faggots to run damage control for him and can't fill a TF2 server confirmed it.

>>720504329
is this sarcasm or not

>>720503964

Neither of these happen. You are creating scenarios in your head to be upset about.

What is the problem here

>>720504409
No anon it's totally a hundred percent serious, it's all bots farming items. Nobody is playing TF2 and the metrics on youtube should 100% be trusted.

Until full body miscs got added

>>720485974
Tf2 is one of those games that it can run on almost any decent pc or even toasters but it will still stutter and suffer from fps drops on high builds.

>>720492492
>bad hitreg
Where?
>retarded teams that show why browns are subhumans
Are weird thing to say, who exactly plays the game. Noobs are just noobs, don't be harsh.
>the PAINFULLY FUCKING OBVIOUS auto-deflect scripts some pyros have
Scripts aren't bad though. Occasionally playing with unusual physical gizmos can be fun too, as long as they aren't outright cheats.

>>720504903
Playing it at 3 fps is hard for sure.

>>720504451
I saw it with my eyes, daily. Until the day I stopped playing. Regardless, the death of server communities where you used to join in with regulars and see them day after day... getting replaced with just pressing a button and get tossed in a barrel with random people every time was incentive enough to quit.

I want to play with people I feel like I'm getting to know, and challenge myself against them when they're better than me. Winning or losing against randos is just... nothing. Empty. Hollow.

>>720505102
Anon... playing against random players is the normal mode of all Valve mp games.

>>720505102
Play on the same maps and you'll start seeing the same people, it's not that big.

>>720505265
t. never knew what a server full of regulars feels like.
I'm sorry anon, it's too late for you to experience the best of TF2.

>>720505265
The only instance I can think of is L4D2, where the group sizes are small enough to just play against your friends

>>720505265
He doesn't know that people didn't just arbitrarily flow into servers and thinks Valve is stealing players, cut him some slack.

>>720505360
I did run in regulars on occasions, even made a friend once.
I simply never cared. I didn't play tf to learn names, I've played it to kill.

>>720505376
If you don't think a "Quick Join" button destroyed the server community, you didn't play prior to Meet your Match. It's that simple. It's fine if you can tolerate it, but don't lie to yourself and others that it's the same as it ever was.

>>720492639
same shit happend with l4d2

>>720505524
It's not even annoying to see newfags try to lecture me about how server communities work.

>>720505518
>I didn't play tf to learn names
I didn't either, but I had favorite servers I always joined for years. Yes there's always random people (or there were, before quick join) but there was often times a local clan who paid the server fees, and regulars who you recognized. And whether or not you wanted to know them, you started to. And it was special.

>>720505524
Quickplay is questionable, but there were many community servers, ya know.
You could've picked a new one any time.

>>720505524
>getting randoms to join the server just o bully them
lol good times

>>720505653
So did I.
I didn't argue against special, mind you. Just saying that randomness is inherent when you don't stick around.
>And whether or not you wanted to know them, you started to.
Or you didn't, simple as.

uhhh bros? how is this banana game mogging us?

>>720505836
There's always random people you don't know, yes, fine, I can grant you that much. But that doesn't mean it isn't a different experience at its core now. The "community" is gone unless you're super proactive about friend listing and inviting people like some kind of socialfag. But if you aren't, if you just want to passively see the same faces, you won't. And that's why I quit.

>>720506015
Understandable.
UI was more elegant in earliest times, can't beat classic Source menu.
Playing a quickie in 2013 felt alien, I've left for 2 years and it's like another world.

I can't decide which class I'm better with. Soldier kind of sucks ass if you don't master rocket jumping, which I see everyone else doing.

Heavy is alright, but if it my team sucks I can't get an inch in.

>>720485304 (OP)
I don't really understand why you'd even consider playing a game for hundreds of hours instead of doing anything else. Exception of course being if you play with friends.

>>720506679
You're supposed to play all classes. Play what you want, or what is needed.

>>720506679
classic "I'm bad, but I don't want to get good" tf2 player cope.

>>720506623
Again if you were what you were asserting you are, it'd be really obvious why your appeal to supposed status as an oldfag via owning a badge means nothing.
And beyond that Beta Participitation means fuck all for even basic decision making.
b4nny played in Beta.

Take me back to balloon_race.

>>720506679
>Soldier kind of sucks ass if you don't master rocket jumping
Honestly it's not that important
Just think of it as a way to skip climbing stairs and finding bridges at first

>>720506901
I said "owned FROM playing since beta" which excludes owning it from whatever trade bullshit you know about.

>>720507114
>So I made myself look like a retard but what if I make myself look like a double retard huh? What will you do then?
Continue to make fun of you for being a retard.

>>720507287
Whatever you say, fucking clown. I hope your pride is spared from me successfully pulling rank on you. Maybe you even believe whatever bullshit you're spouting.

>>720506001
unironically it's because of third worlders farming for literal cents

>>720506519
will never reach the heights of tf2

>>720505518
You basically confirmed what the anon was saying.

I consider it a double edge sword myself, since the community server I used to be a part of also had people with the shittiest taste in maps and I had to endure plenty of shit with them. But while switching to valve servers had the advantage of being able to just pick what maps I wanted to play. I not going to pretend that going from an environment where everyone used voice communication and the environment was really lively to complete randoms who never talked wasn't a huge downgrade.

>>720506519
Never got an invite

>>720507641
It probably will when it actually releases, but it will have a slow decline like every other overhyped live service shooter.

>>720507404
You embarrassed yourself by not knowing fairly basic information about your attempt at "pulling rank" and the only thing you've succeeded in doing is making a fool of yourself.
Basic reasoning, especially if you actually played online games in 2007, would tell you the circumstances that plague the internet and the exploitation of the socially illiterate youth is why user servers have largely fallen out of usage, not some random matchmaking update 3 years after basically every community besides skial and furry pound croaked.

>>720507652
Quite so, but not all community servers actually had routine voice communication, you know.

Do any people still play surf?

>>720485304 (OP)
Because the connection is always shit.

>>720507641
Nothing will ever reach the heights of TF2 in its heyday
That being said, Deadlock is still really fun despite only being in alpha, and there's talk of multiple game modes too so who knows how it'll pan out

am i playing it wrong if i just play on casual Matchmaking?

I only ever really enjoyed the 24/7 2fort & turbine servers and just used them as time-sinks while listening to podcasts. Something to keep me distracted from the southern direction my life has been taking for the past, I don't know, 30 years.

>>720508150
Are you having fun? If so, then no. Paywall compfags can fuck off.

>>720503776
i didn't know about the 100% unusual crate bug until a few hours after it was patched. i had exactly one of those affected crates in my backpack and a bunch of keys from trading back in the day

>>720508306
Ouch.

First stop was all of the atrocious weapon balance and garish cosmetics with Mannconomy. Final straw was matchmaking.

>>720508150
I just play Harvest Casual and I have tons of fun, as long as you are enjoying it you are doing it right

>>720507832
Uh oh, someone isn't satisfied with his "clear victory" after all :^)
Didn't read, btw

>>720491943
I haven't the foggiest clue why./

>>720496081
I didn't know healing someone boosted your regen speed.
Neat.

>>720507641
strangely skipped dota 2 for some reason despite being the same genre

>>720508641
why do so many people want pyro to be a woman?

>>720485304 (OP)
They added hats and started openly pandering to ponyfags

>>720508641
It likely didn't, he has selection bias. They already were in certain social circles before.

>>720485304 (OP)
>get mad at a player on the enemy team
>start focusing them
>dog (who I just adopted a few weeks ago) jumps on my lap
>she's never been this affectionate and has only just gotten used to me
>freak out at the sudden sensation of something on my legs
>push her onto the floor
>dog runs under a table and cowers there for the rest of the evening

I realized that it was making me into an unpleasant person and that I needed to be better for my dog's sake. In retrospect, it's bizarre behavior to intentionally play a game that I know is going to make me upset.

>>720508792
>ponyfags
?

>>720508904
At least you had some good sense. Nicely done, human, nicely done.

>>720508756
Pyro is either a woman, trans or a crossdresser, many of his weapons make reference to gay sex like the backburner, the backscratcher, powerjack, rain blower, detonator, man melter, gas passer, homewrecker, hot hand, same with some of her achievements, attention getter, hot on your heels and weenie roast.

>>720485304 (OP)
Because counter strike is betterw

>>720505019
he sent out 1400 giftapults and 70% of them ended up in botnets

>I also TOTALLY didn't read your post to get this definitely not mad and actually YOU'RE mad

>>720508792
Rarity is best pony

>>720485304 (OP)
I tried it. 10 hours. With friends, with randoms. Custom servers, Valve maps, PvP, MvM. Gave every class a try. Didn't enjoy it at all.

>>720508925
TF2 has always been the official game of the My Little Pony community
Valve acknowledged this during Meet the Pyro

>>720509253
>10 hours

>>720509139
Homewrecker has nothing to do with fags as do others.
Get your head out of this filthy unironic faggot gutter.

>>720509268
Unfortunately MLP community has little in common with the actual show it seems, ugly parasites that they are.
I think at least one VA was disgusted by ponyfags.

>>720509356
Except it does, there's the popular belief that gay people destroy families, either their own or by "seducing" married men

>trillionaire company cant update basic models and textures
basically that, and the death of community servers

>>720509543
Homewrecker usually refers to the female equivalent of a bull in cuckquean kink, when she isn't referred to as a vixen or a cuckcake.

>>720509139
You do know a back burner is a stove burner, right?

>>720509673
Ok, then pyro is a woman

>>720509543
Homewrecker refers to females first and foremost.
You have a modernity bias and info oversaturation about people who make it their business to take all spotlight they can of their own volition or somebody's intent.
This 'popular belief' is a historical minutiae, a product of social engineers and soul rot.
It neither has coined the term, nor subordinated it.

Because they introduced crates. Yeah, I stopped playing after the Mannconomy update over a decade ago now.

>>720509673
Internet bloat, ugly FILTH! Just say what it liteally means! A homewrecker is a woman that wrecks households by seducin men.
For fuck's sakes!

>>720508756
Pyro is a woman because women in tight suits make my PP big.

>>720499997
>anime faggot pfp
so u had a melty and got permabanned, and this is ur way of lashing out. got it

>>720509139
TFC Pyro is confirmed to be a woman thanks to the comics
Ergo TF2 Pyro is also a woman

>>720485304 (OP)
Too many lgbtq pubstomping faggot 5 stacks in casual ruining the team balance of every match.

>>720509139
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, son.
Pyro is probably a woman.
No trannies.

>>720496123
I can smell you from across the house.
GO TO THE BATHROOM RIGHT NOW.

Are there any CTF servers that actually have respawn timers?

>>720510467
Nope, never touched the servers, dont like all the bubble wrap thats put on the servers

>>720488438
Not him but they could migrate to good community servers. But zoomers are the "learned helplessness" generation

>>720485304 (OP)
It was fun. But I had other priorities

>>720485304 (OP)
never started

>>720485304 (OP)
Just got tired of it over time

Fem Spy is hot.

>>720492075
MORE = BETTER
BIG MAPS
BIGGER
Empires mod size payload maps plz

>>720493015
Wasting your time is the punishment

>>720505049
Why did you have to make a post about me

>>720487158
This and the constant drama within the community. I'm sick and tired of the bullshit regarding the workshop and all of the worthless TFtubers who'll defend them and valve to their last breath. I love the game, I know I can go on w/o interacting w/ them, but when It's a constant stream of negativity between both the game itself and the community, I have to walk away eventually. I can't even get away from it in the general, all of the discussion about this game has been done to death w/ the same problems for years on end. I decided to stop being miserable and play something else, only to return w/ a friend or two.

>>720504751
Before this video dropped, TF2fags unironically thought tf2 was a beloved masterpiece causing hundreds of thousands of gamers to log on for every shitty seasonal update with nothing but garbage hats and maps. During the time when the game was almost unplayable due to bots and dogshit matchmaking. They needed a youtuber to spell out what was obvious for them

>>720504887
There's at least the no hats mod. I genuinely cannot understand how people can stomach TF2 without that mod installed, especially in recent years.

>>720494228
Thanks, Jill!

>hat related performance issues
Can't you just disable hats on your client? Or does TF2 not allow you to do that?

>>720485304 (OP)
All the hat bullshit and alternate guns and shit. The game was fine as it was.

>>720512074
There is a no hats mod but it doesnt fix performance that much because the spaghetti code runs deep.

>>720512074
No. Hats are what they make a good chunk of their money on, why hide them? There's psychological bullshit behind it, the more players see it, the more likely they will buy in and spend money.

>>720487158
>left to rot
Too many.

>>720485304 (OP)
I didn't like the recent updates

>>720487158
this & same

>>720512074
i like hats because they make spies seethe

>>720502390
>?si=s0R2Wst6F_Qf0W_h
that heavy is a spy!

>>720485304 (OP)
i dont really like any of the maps (i tolerate like 3 of them) with specific settings and no one played my custom map also they stopped making new weapons

>>720502906
ran "fine" without any tweaks on a core2duo laptop when i tried it
can you even get steam functional on stuff from 2002?
