Yeah it's great that TF2 still has vanilla games. I know. But those are like scattered oases in a desert of dried cat shit with a community of players only marginally more tolerable than L4D2's. If that's all you had meant, this could have been avoided. In both threads. Had you not continuously assumed the worst and couched your comments in a sea of patronizing vinegar in a subconscious effort to irritate and goad.

Excuse me while I go watch a let's play of "buy that hat."

no, newbie. in the original context of the discussion (with that guy talking about cs:go), we were talking about serious and current fps games with a COMPETITIVE SCENE. you waded in and said "Team Fortress 2 is a fun game, but the balance is so wonky that it doesn't really deserve to be called seriously competitive". that is categorically wrong, because competitive tf2 - matches, leagues, tournaments, clan-games, mixes, pick-ups - still use VANILLA WEAPONS (with perhaps 5-6 exceptions, as i mentioned previously). there is no "wonkiness". you are just categorically wrong.

i still get the feeling that when i mention vanilla tf2 settings, you are talking about "vanilla tf2" public servers. the original discussion, and every discussion since that, has been about the competitive scene, and the 'serious' esports/competitive fps side of things. now you've been completely rebutted, you're falling back on all this lameshit "the community sucks, there are no good pub servers" talk. we were never talking about that. and your original remarks about "doesn't deserve to be called seriously competitive" were adding to a discussion that clearly was not about PUBLIC PLAY. so why are you only going on about pubs now?

why are you back-pedaling over such a silly thing? you have drawn this out for 3 months, instead of just being able to admit you were wrong. wow. that's pathological, man. like you are literally mental.

I'm not backpedaling. TF2 is a fun game (subjective). The new balance is wonky, the old balance is not (subjective). I don't think it deserves to be called seriously competitive anymore (subjective). Here are some alternate opinions you might find from different gamers: "TF2 isn't fun." "TF2's new balance is good or better than vanilla." "TF2 is the best competitive FPS ever invented." You are the one being a special flower about the whole thing, taking such personal offense to someone else's opinion that you are willing to type pages upon pages of epilepsy in text form to continue trying to browbeat me with a discussion I've already [attempted to], and I quote: "backed down for the sake of sanity." Yet you still try to suck me back into it. Fuck's sake, I'd get less of a bad taste in my mouth from sticking my head in a Korean restaurant's dumpster at the height of summer than keeping up with the incidentals of your alpha gamer nerdgasm.

So many of the skills in this game are so satisfying to use, but in a full group, the earth-shattering impacts and particle effects can become a bit...overwhelming.

see. "the new balance is wonky". "the old balance is not". what part of THE COMPETITIVE GAME USES THE SAME SETTINGS AS IT DID 4 YEARS AGO do you not understand? there is no 'new' and 'old'. it's the same game, competitively speaking. nothing has changed. yes, raise (subjective) all you want, in parentheses. all it highlights is your (subjective) retardation.

I feel like I'm beating my head against a brick wall precisely because of that. How many different ways do I have to explain my stance? The careful vanilla balance was watered down by all the new shit. Now you have to specifically look for servers that run vanilla or join a pre-arranged vanilla matchup. I imagine if Starcraft 2 did the same thing that there'd be more than a few annoyed players. You've whined about my picking semantics apart, but I'm now waiting with bated breath for some in-depth analysis of yours about my original post and why opinions are wrong.

It's not worth my trouble, and neither is this conversation.

your original post was in the context of me and pilot discussing competitive fps scenes. you said tf2 was too wonky to be seriously competitive. now you're saying you can't find a vanilla pub server to play in. so what is it? is tf2 a competitive bad game, because of a series of updates that haven't changed the competitive scene at all, or is tf2 a bad game because you can't find a pub server you like? choose one.

Is this game worth getting. I didn't play the first but like the look of it, what's the learning curve like in multiplayer?

havent played yet game still in beta. if its anything like the first its definitely worth to get. Single player is much much harder than multiplayer lol... It's hugely complex strategy game coz you have logistics and must use multiple unit types otherwise you get instapwned. but a very very very fun game.

It is obviously a 4v4 Castle Blood Auto multiplayer game. It is pretty much the most popular map and game mode in multiplayer.

You have max resources so you can build up after you win a villager. Fun game scenario. A+ highly recommend.
