[masterful]

I badly want: Strange Minigun, Strange Direct Hit

Which one is the typo??!!?!1!11!!?

 

[noobster]

Vaguely tf2 related, these and songs like them are my favorite thing right now.

Baby - Heavy ft. Scout
Mmph the Way You Mmph - Scout ft. Pyro

More on-topic: every time I join a game and my team has 3 snipers and 2 spies I concede defeat. Guys, play classes that are actually useful.

 

[jumpluff]

I was listening to songs like that on loop the other week. I think my favourite is Scout's TiK ToK parody, possibly because I love Scout's lines. Baby is hilarious as well.

ETA: Aww, Pyrihanna is too cute. It actually sounds vaguely heartbreaking. And Scout is a disturbing fit for Eminem...

Sooo...do you have any plans to do Part 2 of this song?
I mean, you'd have to essentially fill about 3 minutes and 30 seconds with Pyro sentence mixing, but if you pull it off, it just might be the most beautiful thing on Youtube ever created.

This is a great comment, rofl.

ETA2: Wait, problem. Pyro can't burn... Guess Pyrihanna only has flame-retardant lingerie or something.

ETA3: Hey, Snipers and Spies can be situationally effective. Snipers that just sit there taking space in sniper wars are useless though, and one bad Spy alerting the other team ruins it for the rest of them. And since most people on pub servers are bad snipers / bad spies, and refuse to change to something better in combat / utility to meet a demand...

Even as a noob (started playing the day it went F2P), I have to agree in part with Snunch. You only really need 1 spy and MAYBE one Sniper. I've seen teams with 3-4 spies, and I just die a little on the inside. I really only play the Spy if the following is necessary: taking out buildings, hard to reach Snipers, and Heavy and possibly his Medic. It's also pretty fun disguising as a Heavy and luring in the Medic; you can get a handful of back stabs if the Medic is with a small crowd if you're fast enough.

With that said, Heavies are so hard to take down by most classes that they could use a good knife in the back to get rid of them. I mean, they can take 2-3 rockets to the face and live. Pyros like me don't have a chance, even if you nab in the back with the Backburner; they turn around and mow you over, but they might die in the process if anything.

All that said this game is pretty fun; I love how you can just pick up a game in a matter of seconds, leave whenever you're not having fun anymore, and pick up another game. Since having people in voice-chat seems uncommon, think TF2 is more enjoyable than any console FPS (online) I've played. That may change as more people get it for free, but hey, it's not too bad right now.

 

[Mr.E]

HEY GUYS I FUCKING PLAYED FINALLY :happybrain:

AND NOBODY WAS ON :chaos:

then I quit because refreshing the server list kept killing my internet, hopefully turning down my connection speed thinger like the help page says will fix that tonight

 

[jumpluff]

At least you can play TF2. T_T None of my Steam games will launch and I've been researching it for days to no avail.

 

[Snunch]

[URL="https://support.steampowered.com/]steam support[/URL] helped me out when I couldn't play portal 2... those were dark days.

mre as long as youre on at a reasonable hour, valve servers always have 16+ people on. The quality of play is shit but you gotta start somewhere.

[Krul]

I'm really starting to get into this game, it's heaps of fun! I'm maining Medic and Heavy right now (to get a hold of the game), looking at Pyro and maybe Engie sometime in the future.

One aspect that I enjoy is the way it focuses so much on team work. Doing a push to move the cart or using Uber to help a Demo remove sentries/enemies allowing you to cap a point feels so great.

Shame I'm still below average, but hopefully that will change soon
