I planning something tomorrow night at around 10pm Pacific standard time… Im thinking of getting my own 12v12 server for it. 20 bucks for 1 month not bad.
I’m fucking pissed these new unlockables are horribly gay. It makes playing TF2 un-fun… Valve better fucking unroll these unlockables because it’s pointless… i mean… the point of TF2 is having anyone jump in and start playing…
All they did was fuck this up and make it just like Battle Field 2… this is fucking horrible.
yeah, my buddy has been complaining about it too. he doesn’t even want to play anymore lol. I haven’t played TF2 in about 2 weeks myself, I guess I should check it out this weekend.
oh, he told me that uber + bonesaw + two medics is too good. I hadn’t thought about it before, but it sounds pretty gay haha
It’s beyond gay, until there is a legit hack that lets me unlock everything i’m not playing. It’s unfair now. TFC and TF2 was about = classes and it pitted people against each other with teamwork… not fucking unlockables.
I’m beyond pissed. This is the worst thing to happen to TF2 ever. And it’s only going to get worse. Fuck this… i’m going to go buy GTA4.
I really don’t think the unlockables are game balancing. I don’t think uberzaw has a higher crit rate… it’s the only one that I could clearly see using over another…
but whateva thats just me. Im only pissed that I have to get them again.
Also I came up with that uberzaw double medic thing when the uberzaw was announced. Glad to know it works.
I agree that having achievements to unlock weapons is stupid. However, if you have been playing TF2 as long as I have, this is better even if some of the Medics don’t look like they’re doing shit. Trust me, before the update, most games never had a medic on either side, and whoever switched to medic or someone joined in as medic will nearly always control and win the match. He was that valuable.
Now I feel special when I’m soldier/heavy, and you have no idea what good practice I’m getting when trying to headshot medics as Sniper. I’m just saying there are upsides. As far as competitive TF2 goes I don’t think we’re gonna even use the new weapons yet in leagues, especially mid season.
I can only hope that the medic farming is temporary…and will die down very soon. The influx of medics who just stand there and want to farm is ridiculous. It sucks for me because I am a medic player, and to join a team with 1/2 of them who are medics WHO DON’T KNOW HOW TO WORK AS A TEAM…is sad.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Valve scraps the whole idea about new achievements for the rest of the classes to unlock stuff. However, I don’t entirely blame Valve for this…
^yeah, that’s part of why I don’t want to play. I also play medic, and it’ll suck having a bunch of grinding medics on the team just doing nothing. I don’t feel like picking other classes just cause, either. I guess I’ll have to suck it up though -_-
is there any cheese going on with the critical charge thing? I can see cheese with the bonesaw + syringe, but I can’t imagine something cheap for the critical gun right now.
Welll I and two other medics and a heavy did this…
Come out of gate,
One medic with reg uber, me with crit uber, and heavy
One extra medic with reg uber
Heavy gets a reg + a crit
I get a reg.
Proceed to mow through an unprepared team with crits flying high.
Not broken but funny. Also a good soldier a little later in the level after the ubers have warn off with all crits is sooo nice.
Yeah, me and my friends double uber pyros and mow down anything that is in a huddle defending a point or intelligence. I hope valve scraps the unlocking stuff completely. Cause to FIX the shit with new medic weapons, they’re going to release a new patch with unblockables for another class… =/

Oh combovideogodkinglord, I have a challenge you can’t refuse:
Apparently there is a way to double jump with every class. Triple jump if you’re a scout. All I know is that it has to do with crouching (and obviously jumping). Execution may be complicated, so scripting is recommended.
Report your findings to me via PM. Good luck.
Secret. You already have the main idea down though.

You son of a gun. I just knew you already knew.
EDIT: How long did you know about this?
Man, five more achievements before I get the critskrieg.
Having fun playing the game, and the medic levels are going down, but they’re still equally as stupid. I think I need 15 more Medic bonesawings for the Peer Review kill. One achievement I really want to get on my own is the First Do No Harm one, but I find it very difficult to go a whole game without killing anyone.
Would assist kills count against me if I tried to get that achievement?
It’s funny, when I started playing as a medic…all I did was heal people and hit ubers. I never started attacking people until I got tired of spies backstabbing me weeks later.
I don’t think assist kills count against you. I really like the Blutsaugher or whatever it’s called though. It’s saved me a bunch of times already by sucking up life. I ran away from battles w/ 3-10 HP left a few times playing yesterday. Took out a pyro and leeched just enough health to reach a giant health pack and resume my duties. I def. like it better than the regular needle gun.
It’s fun to run out into the fray and shoot a wall of needles over an obstacle. I’ll even annoy/stop a heavy from advancing if the sitution feels alright. You can just fire a wall of needles at him and you’re already stealing health for the random shot that tags you. If he gets a stream of crits, just be sure to be near a wall you can duck behind the moment you see color. As long as you take care to avoid snipers and spies, medic can now at least provide himself as a hinderence while the front lines repopulate against more classes. No instantly running back if you see a heavy/soldier across the map. Fire some of those health sucking needles and keep them at bay for a bit.
Wow I didn’t think about it, but the Blutsaugher can help even the odds against a Heavy one on one…I gotta try that out one I unlock it.
What is the order that you get the weapons in? Or do you get to choose which one you want at each milestone?
And let’s hurry up and get an achievement farm session going! Tonight at 10 PST?
Blutsaugher, Critzcrieg…then Ubersaw.
The GGPO server is always empty. Whats up with that? Btw the 400 medics per team is hilarious lol. I was a heavy and didn’t get any medic love cause they were all trying to get bone saw kills.
Btw I’m having a ahrd time getting an answer to this question. My monitors native resolution is 1680x1050 and if I pick widescreen mode in video options 1680x1050 is the only res that shows up. The problem is that resolution is too much for my pc. I’d like to play with a smooth framerate throughout the entire game without the image being stretched to fit my monitor. The game runs awesome in lower res but its stretched and looks like shit.
I tried using the nvidia control panel to change the resolution and everything under 1680x1050 is a normal full screen resolution. I also tried changing the target command line in my TF2 shortcut but it seems to just give me one of the preset resolutions from the in game video options regardless of what I put in the target line.
I’m trying to get something along the lines of 1280x800 (something good for 16:10) Anyone know how I can get this to work? I just wan’t a lower widescreen res than 1680x1050. That shit beasts on my pc.
