Hopefully they'll all be "don't play sniper for 10 consecutive hours", "switch from sniper to a useful class" and similar.
"Score last place in a losing round, and switch to a different class."
 
Steel is an amazingly well done map, and I like the concept and flow of the whole thing. Lots of small scale battles over E using mobile classes and large scale battles around A and B.

There's justification for one or at most two snipers per team if you've got 12 plus. Most of the time though, a sniper is a wasted slot unless he's really good.
 
Starting to think scout and pyro have been marginalised by the playing strategies that have developed.

Oh and anyone that uses a 180degree turning script should be insta banned. Game breaking tbh.

Had some nice games with Capndrake and the guy from London (shit sorry can't remember name!) yesterday on Conker's server. Lag free from the UK.
 
You might have talked about this already, but I played a round of pl_dustbowl_b3 earlier today. It's like dustbowl was meant for pl_ gameplay the whole time. Really well done.

Now that's a custom I think I could get aboard. Wouldn't wanna play it exclusively instead of cp_dustbowl, but it looks like a really cool change of pace.

Fallengorn, PillowKnight and myself played a few rounds on theville's 24/7 pl_dustbowl server. I'm still amazed at how well the map translates with only a few changes.

IP for that server is 216.52.148.66:27015

Just added it to my favorites.

EDIT: Disregard the rest. In my excitement I was only looking at the PL. They're all running pl_goldrush.

Can someone tell me how the hell to get Second Opinion?
Activate your uber on somebody, then switch to someone else and just keep switching back and forth between the two. Don't click the mouse button like 5 times per switch (That made it not work for me), do it calmly but fast. It is of course easier when people are standing still, so try it during setup or with friends.
 
Ugh ever since the last few updates my computer absolutely chugs while playing TF2. It slows to just a few FPS and the entire thing moves so slow!

Has anybody else experienced this?? I'm really frustrated >_<

Whats necessary to complete Autopsy Report? Do I just have to taunt over an enemy I killed by myself? or take a screenshot?

Taunt over body, then take a screenshot of it.

Easy to do, really.

I must play this.

Just taunt. All that matters is getting you taunting over the corpse in the poor sap's freezecam.

pl_dustbowl is fun but there's plenty of room for improvement. Are there any notable pl customs in development?

Ah... when I tried to get it I always started clicking like a madman. :lol

And it's the only thing running? Have you tried defrag tf2 cache files?

Good matches tonight! I was the lone sniper who almost won it for the team, but died :(

Would've used my mic, but my throat is a bit scratchy. Needs more peejah or whatever.

Yes. But really I just changed subject, because that person was hilarious and entertaining, even though i couldn't understand 90% of what they were saying.
I understood every word, while simultaneously laughing my head off. Seriously, who knew a guy imitating a girl/child's voice while simultaneously stabbing people in the back could be so entertaining? :lol

Sometimes, but lately we've been using Conker's server more.

Yeah while the GAF server is good, it's also password locked, so it's constantly empty. Just from a basic motivation perspective Conker's server gets most of our traffic because there's usually already a small game going.

I think the GAF CS server is mostly empty too save for when people organize team games on the boards here, but I could be wrong.

Had some funny/awesome stuff happen on the Team Roomba server today.

First, a scout and soldier were crouching behind the payload on Goldrush level 1 (Right in front of the second CP), I jumped down (Was sniping) and Goomba stomped both.

Later on I saw an ubered Pyro + Medic jump out above a sentry, so they were juggled in the air, uber wore off and they fell down, Goomba stomping the Engineer :lol

Right after that I got launched into the air by a rocket and came right back down on the Soldier for another Goomba stomp.

And then just now, they activated an "AllTaunt" mode, which made everybody taunt after every single hit :lol Spies were screwed of course.
