Team Fortress 2 |OT3| - Murder-based Hat Simulator

TF2 has been acting strange lately, there's like a small pause every minute and my FPS dropped a lot. Checking the fragmented files I see the game's folder there.

It's been a long ass time since I defragged, this is gonna take a while.

I've been getting small 1-2 second pauses too. It happens every 15 minutes or so for me so I don't mind it too much. It just recently started so I'm guessing it's something from one of the last few updates. Hopefully Valve will fix it soon

Yeah my TF2 framerate has plummeted recently. It used to be over 100 at all times, but sometimes it dips below 60 which is unacceptable considering I have an HD6850. I cleaned my graphics card and the rest of my computer, and I haven't noticed problems in other games. I'm going to try to defrag the files too.

Yea i've also been getting this. I think it was mentioned a few pages back along with others as well.

Would love to know what the heck is causing it.

How do you defrag TF2? Steam's defragger doesn't do anything (despite it taking forever).

Guarantee I'm going to screw up this post? Yeah.

I am also getting this. Should not surprise anyone, TF2 runs like shit with all the garbage they've added.

Strangely enough, I've been getting less overall pauses from TF2 lately. I'll still get the random complete disconnect though, but I attribute that to playing from a wifi connection on my laptop.

For some reason when I play as Soldier and have the Equalizer out I start thinking I'm in Minecraft and get mad when I can't destroy parts of the level.

You can always use gfcscrape, which i just did then. Still get the odd freezing though.

I named my Equalizer "Diamond Pickaxe" ._.

Just made a couple of small changes to the server:
  • Upped the waiting for players time to 45 seconds to allow more time for people to join teams before the scramble.
  • Changed the scramble method from Stats rank to stats points. So having 1 metaphorically on your team is worth 2 treecubeds (at present, anyway).
  • Reduced the time you're allowed to be idle to 1 minute down from 3 minutes.
  • If you're idle for too long you'll just get moved spectator now instead of getting kicked.
The changes should take effect on the next map change.

Awesome. Sometimes I have to leave for a couple minutes so it's nice to not be kicked completely out of the server now.

Every time you vote Hightower, a small innocent kitten dies.

Please, think of the kittens.

My new strategy is to nominate Degroot whenever I see Hightower.

You want a crappy map? I'll give you a crappy map.

Also, you're a bastard. At least cover my sprays with something other than Twilight.

I think we should just delete hightower and replace it with 2fort. At least 2fort has a bigger area to run around in with some cool buildings where you can get sweet frags.

The soldier feels like a different class, a different speed when you go from the direct hit to the standard launcher.

I played on a training duel map and holy shit was I bad. I couldn't hit any middie or do any real damage with a direct hit compared to the standard launcher that the other guys were using. I got destroyed in points.

DH I've learned you need to be really close or have good aim.
