And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

Dear god. All of the heavies. I felt bad for sumner because he was such an awesome medic, and I kept running into TWO heavies side by side with miniguns spinning. D:

800x600 in a window yes :] i used to play at 640x480 but not any more

What servers do you guys play on, haven't been in a game with anyone from here.
LMS @ 69.90.34.11:27015
LMS New, IP is somewhere in last couple pages
official gaf server but evilore has to fix something i believe
the 2f2f servers
etc
 
Steel is a lot fun to play, once you get a group of people that know the map. Pretty confusing at first, but there are big signs and arrows everywhere. It's not that difficult to learn.

I played it in a pick up game once...we decided that the eight of use would try to scout rush E at the beginning of the match. Turns out they had a sentry set up at B that stopped us dead in our tracks, and killed most of us. The rest of the game went downhill from there! We never even capped A.

so i just bought this game off of steam.

and i am liking it but not that much. part of the reason im not liking it as much is that i dont like playing fps with the wasd keys and the mouse. and in steam, it clearly states that this game supports a gamepad.

so i see this, and i go "hey, i will buy this! im a console player at heart and this game supports a gamepad! sign me up!"

not my problem is, i got evetything mapped out perfectly to my desires on my sixaxis. i got everything mapped out just fine except probably the most important part of the game - the aiming.

i cant find anything on the options page about customizing the aiming or mapping it out on the right analog. now my question is, is there a sure-shot way of mapping this out? i really wanna play this game now but i just dont like the mouse and wasd keys. i know its probably best to learn this way of playing, but i simply dont like it and i want to stick to a gamepad.

so is there a way of mapping it?

I don't really know, but seriously you worried me a lot more as spy than you did as heavy.

I have no clue. Every time I took one down, another was in his place.

Also, running beside Sciz when he was playing heavy, was like walking beside fucking Rambo. He walked from the beginning of that stage all the way to the fucking end without dieing. I wish I had that recorded. :lol

It should automatically map to the right stick, so long as you have "Enable Gamepad" enabled in the mouse tab. Is their software that drives a sixaxis on PC? You might want to make sure that is configured correctly as well.
Also
use a mouse, you're going to get slaughtered using a gamepad

i enabled the gamepad option but the aiming isnt mapped out to the right stick at all.

and i had to download some thing off the web to get the sixaxis working in my pc. though, now that im thinking about it, does tf2 support the sixaxis or do i need some generic gamepad from an eb?

though shouldnt any gamepad that connects with a usb work?

and i dont mind getting sluaghtered part, i just have a lot more fun with shooters if im playing on a pad.

Haha celpacius, no offense but you're probably gonna get shouted out on all the severs with people calling you noob etc because of your innacurate and possible slow aiming... plus you lose all the fast hot keys.

Hmm, looking into it I tried using my 360 pad to control the game and ran into the same problem. I know there are people that use gamepads in TF2, so I know it's possible there is probably a missing step somewhere however. I'd check the steam forums. Again, though, I highly suggest you try to use the mouse instead.

Heh heh. I'm no Won, but I can pull off a competent game of Spy as long as the other team isn't too good about spychecking. It's certainly more fun to drive a knife into your back than it is to get into another one of our usual health-draining minigun showdowns.

It was just a matter of every single GAF heavy player being on at once and sticking together, I think. When the heavy achievements actually do come out, I'm going to be really torn between going straight for them or having a field day backstabbing the inevitable horde of heavies, medics, and snipers. :lol

And I love attacking Gold Rush when RED doesn't bother setting up any sentries or playing sniper. It's a literal walk in the park, with guns blazing all the way. We were like half a second from actually pushing it straight from start to finish, too. :(

And speaking of spies and things I wish were recorded, I'd love to have a demo of Volcynika and I capping the last point of Castle. I wasn't even thinking about teamwork at the time, but we were nothing if not efficient. :D

Yeah, its pretty easy to tell who is going to win those, its just the first one that was firing at the other one. I honestly wouldn't say Won is that far above you either, but maybe you were just targeting me to mess with me. Won usually doesn't bug me, I find fights with him entertaining, but you just kept killing me. :(

Yeah, me and Sciz were an awesome spy/sniper team. :D

And I did so well tonight, though I think McVlad is a teeeeeeeensy bit annoyed at me :lol

I've never intentionally targeted you (yet). You just tend to leave your back available at convenient times. :lol

We defended our asses off in that round. I know the blue team was getting more than annoyed with all of the sticky grenades I had placed everywhere. This was the best I've done in a while. Came away with like 40 something kills towards the end. Most I did on one life. :D That was a great game.

Volcynika shot me in the hand and killed me one round. :lol

Yeah, I did it to someone else in Goldrush. He was in the upper area, and I saw his hand on his gun. Boom! Dead. I also shot a scout in the ankle and killed him.
 
I still can't believe how I was able to crit all 3 of you guys with the backburner in Granary today. All I did was just hide on the barrel next to our 2nd CP and went away from my PC for 2 mins. I come back expecting to be at the spawn, but I'm still at the CP. 3 BLUs are cappin the point so I just rush in and crit all of them with their backs turned!!! :lol :lol

Nice scores. Are you two the new masters of GAF TF2 now?

I had over 100 points one round before I left. I pissed off many a heavy and sniper and engie (lol McVlad). If you need a good sniper, get me on your team! Or Bunny. Bunny's pretty great at it too.

That wasn't even the end of the round. Volcynika had the highest on his team, and I had around 60 something. That was amazing. :lol

McVlad hunted me down so much at the end of one of the goldrush rounds, everywhere I turned, he blew me up. He had to get his revenge. D:

I hate trying to deal with either of you when you're sniping. Such ridiculous accuracy. :(

Yes. I walk out from my dispenser-sentry spot with the intention of repairing my teleporter exit on the bridge. I see something out of the corner of my eye, but it has red clothes so I don't turn immediately. Before I can, I spot Volcynika at the base of the ramp right as he headshots me. Sciz proceeds to sap my stuff and the two of them cap the point. Amazing. :lol

So the Spy has now an "animationless" taunt while he is disguised? Awesome!
I'm pretty sure he always has. Or does he say something now?

Nothing happened after pressing the taunt button while disguised, now he zooms out and you can move the camera around, but he does nothing.

Or my game was bugged till today.

I noticed that too, the taunt button did nothing before, but now it freezes you for the duration of the would-be taunt.

Wait, MicVlad is European? I've seen him playing TF2 after 8pm eastern time which means...he's playing this at 2-3 in the goddamn morning.

Might need an intervention. :lol

Hell, if I my fridge wasn't empty yesterday night I would have played up until 3AM CET! SLEEP LESS, PLAY MORE is a motto I can get behind :lol .

Btw what's the song playing when you get on the Love me Sexy server? The voice reminds me of Gemaine for Flight of the Conchord but I don't think its them...
