TF2 Pubbin' 501

Usually I'll play both rounds/sides of Payload and Attack/Defend maps, but if half my team is afk or not trying, there's really no point in staying.

Very nice gameplay, as always, and I love the kill sound hahaha

overrelience on the grenade launcher, sticky bombs on the teleporter would have been huge. Repeatedly got hit from behind when pushing past the first point, becuase of the faliure to destroy that tele.

I knew there was a Teleporter behind the rocks on the right, but I wasn't able to get to it unfortunately, it was too well defended. (And it also didn't help that we were a few men down..)

He was pretty adept at landing direct hits with the grenade launcher (that sweet double-scout kill, and the double-kill on the deadringer spy), so that doesn't seem to be a big issue. Also, don't you find it bizarre, at all, that you're sitting here and straight-faced telling a person that the problem they're having is that they're relying too much on the character's /primary weapon/? Like I'm not arguing the point - stickybomb launcher is popular for a reason, but isn't it really strange that the balancing is such that it's just a known thing that people ought to be relying on a secondary weapon instead of primary? The only other case is the medic, and that's because the medic secondary is how he heals people; it's not a weapon for engaging the enemy. Also stickybomb launcher has too long of an arming time for fast-moving engagements, with enemies often moving out of the effective blast range before the individual bombs can arm. If you're going to go that route, why not just go soldier? Soldier does that a lot better anyway. Even if that weren't the case, the delay between laying an explosive at a person's feet and waiting for it to arm so you can detonate it and frag them, verses just hitting them and directly applying damage, can be the difference between you getting killed in the engagement or surviving.

Why does ur tf2 look so much smoother than mine

[@Antiparticle1701]

Well, I record in very high quality and at 180 fps in OBS. Then I edit the video files in VEGAS Pro, I add frame blending and make the colors more vibrant. And of course, I have decent computer so good fps in TF2, that's important too.
