Yes, I know you're using Mumble, and that's fine, I appreciate and understand that you like the quality, etc., but you're on a public server. Not everyone could even fit in the damn Mumble server even if you wanted them to.

Well, okay, fair enough.

But, no one is going to download fucking Mumble just to be in your great vocal presence. And you know it.

Okay, I just got it.

Kind of annoying that you need a console command to make the 360 controller work.

I was going to bitch about that too but you have beaten me too it.

That's one of the really dumb things about tf2 getting micro transactions now. It already feels like they are turning the game on it's head and not in a good way. I have no issues with people buying weapons / hats if they want as long as i can get them through crafting, random drops, trading but the key thing is just absurd.

So if I craft something and the game then eats my metal am I ever going to get that metal back or is it now lost to the void?

P.S. JAVA. FIX THE ROTATION. Having 2fort and Hydro one after the other is not a good thing, even if I love Hydro. Nobody else does!

Here's the current rotation. If someone could parse it into a decent list (maybe 1/2 the size) I'll be happy to update the server. I'm running on fumes right now.

Sorry if I missed any Steam messages last night. Anything sent after 6pm was lost to a power flicker.

Up for trade for other hats (or decent item for the Vita-Saw), though not quite certain about giving away the Duty Rag yet.

Also, fun times being a Heavy.

EDIT: Vita-saw gone.

Meh, the controller sensitivity can't be fine-tuned enough for this game anyway. Even trackball mouse is better.

IMO, I LIKE having EVERY map. What we need is not to cut it down, just reorder it so there is not 4 games of KOTH within 5 maps.

Why would you even want to use it? You will get absolutely raped as there is almost no auto-aim. It's like setting up a pad for use on the PC version of Call of Duty *shudders*
 
Yeah, the Black Box is basically an upgrade to the Rocket Launcher, you hardly notice the one missing rocket.

Some people are evil with the Short Stop, the new Scout main-slot pistol. Between that and the set's lasting power and the Mad Milk health regeneration, I'm seeing some pretty long-lived Milkman Scouts even in pub play.

Funny thing I noticed in my backpack just now:
TF2MannconomyVintagePDA.png


My PDA token's not transitioned gracefully. It wasn't even showing up for me yesterday. Well, at least it's Vintage. Edit: It's been fixed.

Speaking of, here's my Vintage trade list, sorry for the big image:
TF2MannconomyVintageTrade.png

I split it up by class. All that's Vintage, one of the FANs is Level 31, one of the Nataschas is Level 63. I'll obviously not quite treat those the same as the rest.

I have non-vintage Ambassador, Kritzkrieg, Scottish Resistance and Flare Gun if you really want those for some reason, and an extra Degreaser (Pyro flamethrower) and Black Box (Soldier rocket launcher). I might be encouraged to get rid of my Old Guadalajara (Pyro sombrero).

To complete a Vintage collection, I'll just need a Homewrecker. I'm also open to trading for some of the newer items (see next paragraph), and hats, primarily Scout hats like the Bonk Helm, Baker Boy, Bombing Run, or Milkman, Soldier Hats like the Stainless Pot or Tyrant's Helm, or the Medic's Ze Goggles. I'm not as concerned with the hats being Vintage, there's a point. PM me if you're interested in any of this.

For new items, I already have: Shortstop, Mad Milk and Holy Mackerel (Scout), The Black Box and Battalion's Backup (Soldier), The Degreaser (Pyro), and Your Eternal Reward (Spy).

There should probably be a separate Trading thread, I feel pretty awful plunking this here.

I have always, always turned off auto-aim on consoles because it fucks up my headshots.

Listen, I started with Wolfenstein 3D like any other good PC gamer and my first and best years with the FPS genre have been on PC, but I also have 10+ years of experience with console FPS games now and I really don't understand why so many PC gamers are such little bitches about gamepads. They aren't as good as mouse, but they aren't half as bad as so many people make them out to be. If a game has such an amazingly shitty sensitivity gradient as this game does, I can see why they would think that, but that isn't the fault of the control format itself.

I'm so tired of this same stupid debate coming up every time I mention a controller. So fucking sorry for finding them comfortable and fun to use and not caring about attaining the highest amount of dominance I possibly can.

Oh my bad, I just like to play competitive games competitively, I forgot there were other ways to play them. So fucking sorry for assuming you would get pleasure out of dominating.

Nice going, calling other people bitches during a massive whine post when some guy asked you a perfectly reasonable question about why you choose to use what you admit yourself is an inferior control method.
 
So fixed my crash problem.


I'm now trying to see if I can get good with the force of nature... it's not going very well.

Still if you get buff banner you can near insta kill a heavy, thats pretty nice.

Yes, not everyone is so serious about the match results of their entertainment. It's like the mindset you enter Mario Kart with. Winning is technically the goal, but you just aren't serious like with other racers, there is much else to be enjoyed there. You can have that mindset with many games, and some people prefer it.

A question can be valid with a silly attitude. This...
You will get absolutely raped as there is almost no auto-aim.
...is exaggeration and demonstrated ignorance of gamepad controls and/or lack of grace with them. Same thing every time, always played up as shock, horror, or disgust. To anyone who has effectively used a gamepad before it just comes off as being a baby who never learned to walk. It comes off as the words of a quitter who never worked to be better because it hurt their pride to not immediately do as well as they did on mouse & keyboard.

I don't go looking to pick a fight with people who have this view of gamepads, I've just gotten tired of hearing the same crap every time I mention one (which I only do to find other people who do in order to set it up, as I did here) so I thought I'd speak my mind for once. I'm not giving people a general label of being bitches--I'm sure they man-up plenty in various aspects of gaming--I'm just saying that such is their attitude toward gamepads.

Bro,, I play plenty of games with a pad, even first person shooters, but I would never play a multiplayer FPS with a pad. It would just frustrate me to get out-sniped 100% of the time.

I hear you man. Especially playing on the GAF server. I really don't care about topping the boards if i'm playing with a gamepad. I know i'm handicapping myself compared to people who play with a kb/m but sometimes i just want to play with a controller. I do it in borderlands, l4d, batman, etc.

Plus if i'm getting really drunk i don't think it would matter much which input i choose to play with :D

I am jealous that everyone else seems to be getting tons of drops. So far all I've gotten is the new soldier backpack. All of the other new weapons I had to craft myself and I haven't been getting any drops at all.

Also, I don't really care about vintage weapons, so if anyone wants to trade a non-vintage version and some other weapon/reclaimed metal for a vintage item I'd be up for it.

http://www.tf2items.com/id/yeef

I actually already had a full vintage set before the patch went up, but used all of the stuff that I'm missing now to craft the new weapons.

Well...yeah you're right. It was just the fact that it was out on PC so i think most people played it with the kb/m. But there is no multiplayer in it so...

And i just crafted a GRU(love the russian references still) and a Sadvich, it said the crafting server was down, so i crafted it again and now i don't the metal or the items.

Nope. Doesn't stack with kritz either, though it's utterly terrifying when you see them both together. If more than one person has a banner it's best to chain them.

Gimmie that Tyrant's Helm. I've got a Vintage Trophy Belt and a non vintage Hound Dog. I also know the pain of owning a Ritzy Rick's Hair Fixative. Don't you see that we are brothers? You can have all 3.

Agreed. I still haven't played on every map yet, so I still don't know what they're all like. I suppose I could play on other servers, but I don't really want to.

Yeah, it is stupid. Everything else I am perfectly okay with, but this is dumb.

Does anyone know if dueling mini-games can be obtained from random drops?

No, you're doing it wrong. It doesn't need to shrink, it just needs to be reordered. There's absolutely no reason to remove any of those maps from the rotation.

And it is an FACT that you will be considerably worse than people who use KB/M.

I think so, I thought I saw a person find one during the first day at Upward, but it could of just been a "Found" one, like "Finding" scrap metal. I think you just 1 game though and not a set of 5, making it much more rare for people who don't buy them.

Damn, double post, fuuuu...

Edit: Looking more into it, it can be found. But at 10 wins (And note the WINS, a draw does not count as a win in TF2's book, and you lose the gun too) to level up, its going to take a while to get the higher badges. Long Long times.
