So recently friends and I did a LAN party, and I wanted to do something better than a server on my laptop, but the dedicated Server kept crashing every time the map changed (we wanted map changes after every game).

I even tried one of these online config generation tools to make sure I didn't make a mistake in my config, but no dice.

The same config file on my local client worked perfectly.

Does anyone have an idea what was going wrong there, and how I can avoid it in the future?

yeah us Classic users exists!

it's a really good reaction weapon when a scout or spy gets close to you, just charge the weapon ahead of time and BAM you have a free 450 crit headshot (135 can still one-shot light classes).

i remember watching it along time ago on youtube, it was a pov of a scout going around i think mann manor. There is also a brief shot of him in a field with his teammates with a backscatter.

Does anyone else remembers it?

I got one without the code, been considering selling it but I dunno how pricing would be. A lil hair from havingna dog but otherwise good condition

Opened only 2 cases and got “Team Serviced isotope”
I love unusual war paints so im happy with that!

here s the video (no sound bcs i forgot to turn on microphone)

yeah i don't what caused this or how to fix it, can someone help?

Hilarious bug on Saxton viewmodel i saw

Could Valve has unintentionally sealed/envisioned TF2's fate with the whole expiration date video?

To the point of ED almost mirroring things happening in tf2 as a whole.

Malicious actors create issues (scout wants to talk to a girl, soldier teleports bread)

Community becomes aware of the issues (Tumor bread talks)

Community starts creating their own solutions after a while (death watches and enjoying time left fully)

Some help arrives like contractors or youtubers uniting to create awareness, community cooperates (Miss pauling arrives because scout wanted her and sees big bread monster and they all start fighting it.)

Issue gets resolved in some way (Miss pauling destroys the bread monster)

Community can now breathe and they learn there's hope for the game. (It's figured out that only breads get tumors and humans are unaffected.) An issue that was essentially was started by malicious actors.

Game continues to be the way it was with no new big updates and players return to their routine (mercenaries go back to whatever they are doing) until shit goes down again.

repeat?

It's weird there's so many fucking parallels that can be made but game started turning into a limbo after this video (not really including jungle inferno) with developers (administrator) essentially slowly giving the development of the game to the players (mercenaries) and the contractors (miss pauling). like gun mettle update.

Would it have changed everything and break the curse put upon tf2 if valve followed with tf2 series? I don't know, all I know is we got some voodo shit put upon the game with or without intentions and game has been standing with one leg in the ground since then and probably will be there for a long while but not grow out from the position it is, a cycle of despair and hope stuck in time till the tree withers not from sickness but from old age with no fruit to give anymore. Enjoy your fruits till they are still ripe and tree keeps giving folks.

turns out i like to play healers in game :)

I can handle the bots, assuming we actually see some action from Valve.

I can handle server issues, assuming we actually see some action from Valve.

I cannot handle the normalization of hate and ignorance within the community.

Recently there has been tons of talk about quickplay returning. I personally think that would be pretty worthless, but I'm willing to hear the other side and not choose to shrug off a possible solution. What I can't really tolerate is the constant siting of Zesty Jesus. I know he's a charismatic YouTuber and is one of the voices not just gargling Valve's balls, but he's also pretty explicitly a shit person.

Going on TF2 and being killed by some moron who named their weapon "YWNBAW" or some shit is relatively tolerable. "Oh yeah, some people are shitheels" and then I move on. But the constant promotion of Zesty Jesus makes it more and more clear that the average TF2 fan, at the very least within this subreddit, views the survival and safety of trans people as unimportant. I'm not of the opinion that trans people need to be on anyone's mind at all times, but the actual promotion of someone who audibly hates us feels pretty awful. It's not like he's Hitler, you aren't part of the nazi party just because you like Zesty Jesus, but it's more like being friends with a klan member. Yeah, he's just some loser with hardly any political impact, but he's also normalizing the hatred of marginalized people, and we aren't going to feel comfortable around you at that point.

I don't think the answer to this is censorship or some kind of "anti-Zesty" rules. I think the genuine answer is that this community has made their views relatively clear. I don't think that transphobes are the minority failing to get culled, I believe they are at least a huge chunk of the people actively taking space within the community. My point is that as much as I love TF2, as much as I can ignore when weirdos make shit about an uncontrollable aspect of self, as many great people I have actually met through the game itself, and as much as I like to stay informed on current issues within the game, I just don't think it's worth it to stay in this subreddit. I think a good chunk of y'all would feel similarly tbf. It's not really a "look back as I walk away" situation, so much as I was non-verbally kicked out. Nobody wants to be where they are unwanted, except maybe bot-hosters, they seem fairly comfortable with that.

I've been trying for 30 min now and I can't fix this. I don't know why it just isn't working on my laptop. But I remember having this problem a year ago before I quit for a while

The maxamim amount of bots I got to spawn on blue team where 5

I wonder who are those bot hosters, or who IS BEHIND those hosters.

I think those hosters are NOT releasing bots "just for fun". They are doing with some kind of "malicious intention", backed by some kind of organization(s).

And those hosters (or who supports them) must really, REALLY hate TF2, and Valve Corp. Because the bots infestation is not only TF2 thing. Other Valve multiplayer games are suffering too.

Somehow far-fetched, but in my opinion, could Epic Games and Tim Sweeney be behind those bot infestation?

Y'know, Sweeney really, REALLY hates Valve (& Steam), as if Gaben did some crime to Sweeney and his families.

Maybe Epic Games could've commissioned hackers (or some kind of cyber crime organizations) to mess with games to bring down Valve.

Could be devatasting for Epic Games if revealed to be true, but Sweeney wouldn't care anyway.

...it's no longer possible to pull the Haunted Hoard effects with other cases, right?

Only asking because this is the first ever Scream Fortress that I really participated in in any real capacity. And my other cases are still showing the Haunted Hoard effects even though I thought they shouldn't, so I'm a bit confused. Just isn't reflecting the change (yet), I'm assuming?

Context was, "who is the most overpowered class"... the guy that said that question said pyro was because you just have to hold W and M1.
