Overwatch.
Because it's an improvement on an old sub genre of FPS AND doesn't try to sell me hats on an outdated platform/engine.

>>375759078
Pyro and Spy were my favorite because I'm a dirty backstabber, but I was "better" as a heavy because I was pretty bad at the game overall.

>>375759078
Pyro and medic, because i like playing it, it's that simple, don't care if "muh w+m1 maymay", it feels good, and team mates are always happy when i burn down a spy or heal them


>Also Ubersaw is deadly af

>>375759078
Soldier, and I still play pretty often. Casual is actually pretty good in the early mornings because all of the retard kids are asleep.

The one and only

Scout

I hate most people who like scouts because they're insufferable but glass cannon + speed has always been my favorite play style generally.

My favorite loadout was babyface, boston, and the guillotine since babyface pinged off bleed I would just run at fucking light speed with the basher.

Fuck you it was fun.

>>375759078
Engie.

Resource management, general team support, different strats. Setting up behind/above the enemy and sending the whole team through my tele is always fun. Plus people always underestimate the shotty/pistol combo, especially if you have a dispenser to keep swinging by. Also the sentry gun is fun to bait people into.

>>375759078
Scout, I always play the fast character in games no matter how shit they are. I just like going fast

>>375759078
Spy and Soldier. I loved the idea of being stealthy, going behind enemy lines and causing mayhem and confusion, playing mind games as they try their hardest to counter your shit.

Soldier because he's straight forward and gotta love those rockets.

Hoovy, because nothing else in TF2 compares to getting the drop on a slew of enemies and not letting go of M1 til you've slain them all and lined the killfeed with your name

demoman is objectively the strongest class

All of them really, inly class based shooter i truly have fun on every class in

Every time. What other context are you supposed to use them?

Everytime I play TF2 I end up just doing Scout with Butchers Cleaver and Sandman

I don't use the shotgun at all. I just throw the cleaver and baseball at people, and hit them with the bat when I stun them.

With scout, always aim to flank and have an escape route. Treat him like spy by catching them by surprise, running head on can work but thats just letting them know you're there and they can react more accordingly, and don't try to fight the crowd, find lone targets.

DEMOMAN!

DEMOMAN!

Would play engie more if it wasn't so annoying to play him on casual

Usually I play Pyro, nothing's more satisfying then getting those salty kills with my trusty stock everything.

But lately I've been playing Soldier, feels good and feels right to be stomping around with him.

Scout.
I went from medic to heavy to scout over several years. Only started playing scout because my 6s team went platinum and I couldn't shoehorn heavy in any more. Ended up liking scout more than bullet hose afyer a while anyways. Engi and sniper are the only ones I never really enjoyed.

>>375759078

I either die fast or die fast but get their medic and soldier

Also Tracer in overwatch, but she got a lot more survivability there

Soldier 80% of the time, medic for the other 20%

>>375775678
Its doable and can be effective, but the draw of the mini sentry is that it makes you more independent to do what you want and not be confined to one area. If you're getting pushed back and need to take action then and there because building takes a long time, then its pretty solid.

>>375767697
There's only 1 demo so you don't have sticky traps literally fucking everywhere.

I prefer pistol personally but I've seen engies make it work. I'd rather just not have to worry about it and focus on aiming.

Are you talking about strictly right now, or earlier during its lifespan? It's a dying F2P game, my dude. The majority of players were always trash, though.

>>375759078
Engineer and medic pretty much tied, probably because the difference between 0 engineers or medics and 1 engineer or medic is bar none the biggest boost in effectiveness a team can get, and they're some of the most likely classes to have 0 players so I often get to start tf2, pick engineer and then practically win the game by putting down a teleporter.

>>375759210
I know you're just baiting but is it really any better to sell you hats on a platform/engine that isn't outdated?

>>375760449
It feels pretty fantastic to have a soldier destroy your sentry and run at you expecting you to run away while he reloads and instead rush him and annihilate him with the shotgun before he can reload. Same with medic although now I use the crossbow exclusively it doesn't really work as well, blutsauger and the other needle guns could do good work against enemies that underestimated you though.

>>375767957
Pretty much the only time I play ctf is when I want to C&D spy to wherever the enemy engineers are and spam voice commands to make them try to find me. It's amazing how persistent people are even though most of the time I do literally nothing to actually threaten them over like 20-30 minutes of play.

>>375759078
Medic!

I am not that good at FPS to begin with and I'm not usually good at taking the initiative in these sorts of games. But I'm really good at helping the team stay alive! It's rewarding and fun.

Last night I was playing around with the kritzkrieg because it's my least used medigun, popped it on some antlered soldier right outside the enemy gates and nearly wiped their whole team. The med gun unlocks are all fantastic in their own ways. It's astounding to me that the same people who somehow managed to make the healer role an important and dynamic one still can't manage to fix the broken pile of shit that the pyro class is.

I don't know man, surely the stock flamethrower would have been playtested by them at some point?
It's so bad that I can't play it at all, even with low ping. For some reason it doesn't work on people that I'm close to, I can only set people on fire from the edge of the flame particle range, resulting in wacky scenarios in which I flank and jump down on a group of enemies that are bunched up and my flames go THROUGH the people near me and burn people on the other side of them.

Scout for the better part of a decade because I came from years as an Unreal flak monkey and his playstyle fit like my dick in a glove.

Why do people shit on these so much, accusing people of being shit at spy for not using the shitty dead ringer
I don't want people to see me so what's the point in complaining about it

>>375784932
I have literally never heard anyone complain about C&D spies, let alone heard people suggest if the spy was good they would use DR instead. DR is the only watch I ever hear people complain about. That said it is kind shit unless you take the l'etranger and depending on the area the invis watch can be nearly as good at letting you be invisible 100% of the time by picking up ammo.

>>375785721
C&D is good for new players who don't have perfect map knowledge and for playing the long game in CTF. But since tf2 is a fast paced game and no one likes or even understands strategies for CTF it gets shit on.

Soldier and Scooty-Booty.

>>375759078

There's more to being "dead" then just player numbers.

It's been nearly 2 years since the last weapons were added, and the last game modes they added were outsourced and stillborn. MyM was largely unnecessary and killed community servers, and Valve's new "balancing" direction involves pigeonholing each class into 1 or 2 narrow, shallow playstyles like what Overwatch does.

The original developers have all left for other projects within Valve, the game is getting more outdated and unoptimized (though you probably wouldn't notice), and even all the humor and writing is starting to decline in quality (comics aside- see blog posts and new voice lines). TF2 might not be "dead" per say, but it's in the nursing home, and eventually it's going to fall and not get up.

I can get 2 or 3 continuous shots in before I land back onto the ground. When do you reload?

>>375793897
don't land on top of your target, shoot your rockets then air strafe onto higher ground or a prop.

>>375789641
This wouldn't be so bad if ctf wasn't just code for tufort. Fuck that fucking map, stealing all the attention from the actual good ctf map.

For me it's medic followed by engie and spy

>>375759078
Too hard to pick. I don't main anyone, I enjoy playing all the classes even if I suck harder with some than others. Also, I took off all cosmetic items recently and I realized how much better the class designs are. I don't think I'll ever put any hats on Soldier or Sniper again. 8000 hours so far. I don't think I hit more than 1000 on OW before dropping it.

>>375759078
scout,pyro,demo,soldier are the ones I picked the most but it's hard to choose a favorite. tie between scout and solider I think.

>>375759210
(You)

>>375793897
If a jump requires more than two rockets it's basically never practical.

>>375796160
Yeah, but I see people surf their way across the entire map. How do they do it?

>>375790413
Every class except Heavy and Engineer.

>B-but pyro w+m1
Only works on shitters
>B-but demo sticky spam
Nigger you still have to learn to land those pipes
>B-but soldier shoot at feet 2 win
Nailing consistent airshots and advanced mobility take a TON of practice
>b-but medic
You're LITERALLY defenseless. In an FPS. And you're the highest priority target that even the biggest scrub knows to shoot first. You're also slow and frail.

I mean, need I go on?

>>375796524
Even Heavy has some skill. You need to know when your team is going to make a push and be at the front to absorb most of the damage so that your team has more chance of getting through.

He may not have any advanced movement skills, but game sense is a must for a class that lacks said skills.

>>375796524
anon you need to read the post he was replying to in order to understand it properly

P.S. Heavy is absolute garbage if you can't track and if you don't have a good understanding of when to commit to a push and when to hold back, that 300 hp is useless if you suddenly realize you need to stop revving up and turn and run with those stubby little legs.

Phlog takes skill.

>>375759078
for me it was Soldier > Spy > Medic > Engineer

I was awful at the game, but back then it was only about having fun.

>>375796823
To use in an even slightly competitive environment? You must be a God because pyro without airblast is just irredeemable trash.

>>375759078
Engie and medic.

>>375796646
>>375796646
Thats super basic stuff though, just simple teamwork. I would think anyone who has even a bit of FPS experience could master heavy in a few hours. Yeah, you couldn't hand off the wheel to a child and expect them to do well as heavy in pro 6s, but compared to the insane skill ceiling something like soldier provides heavy just doesn't have that going for him.

>>375797079
I dont play medic often because i dont often have good teammates, but NOTHING is more satisfying than knowing your team only won because you bossed them around.

>>375796160
Holy shit my guy learn to rollout properly.

You have no idea how important it is for your soldiers and demos to get to mid first, and doing so as fast as physically possible requires some fucking insane jumps sometimes.

STAR_ made a video demonstrating his upward and badwater rollouts a few years ago. Go watch them to quickly get an idea of what I'm saying.

>>375796160
Yeah, soaring from one end of the map to the other at the fastest possible speed in the game isn't practical at all.

>>375797746
How do you do a good rollout?

Which maps (Other than jump maps) have good spots to practice?

>>375797301
As who? If a Medic, shouldn't matter. If as a Soldier/Demo...

lol yeah I used to do these rollouts almost flawlessly esp on badlands.

>>375797304
>I dont play medic often because i dont often have good teammates
Find a good server and stick to it

>>375797946
5cp maps are usually the best for rollouts because the maps are designed around them. Upward and badwater have decent ones but the rest of the maps not so much.

If you want to get better at roaming with soldier follow these two rules.
1. Never walk anywhere
2. Don't take fall damage

Scout and Medic for the most part. Soldier a bit below those two.

>>375797079
>>a good nest can hold an entire enemy team at bay
You are really overstating how powerful the sentry gun is, the only reason they're any good ever is because the rest of your team exists and the enemy team is rarely well coordinated enough to have two people shooting at it at once. All it takes is one guy using a direct hit.

Will never play Soldier.

>>375797301
Don't worry too much about KD. I've seen plenty of games lost because DPS classes wouldn't get in the goddamn point, you gotta take risks from time to time. Just make sure you aren't dying as classes like engineer or medic, dying as either of those classes hurts your team significantly. Better to retreat to the next point than fight a losing battle.

Heavy is my all time favorite OP.

I dont understand why 90% of the time i get a team thats focused on 1v5ing anyone that comes into vision instead of working as a unit to decimate the enemy team.

>Guys the enemy has capped our intel twice. Lets go storm their sniper covered base one at a time in a single file line while we leave one engineer behind to guard the intel from like 4 scouts and a spy!

Haven't played it regularly in a while, but I would occasionally go back and play a few hours every now and then.
But boy, oh boy, fuck the stupid ass matchmaking system. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to sit for minutes in order to get into a pub match that you could instantly access from the server list in the past.

>>375802414

Takes time, but eventually you'll be able to predict where your opponenents will move and fire your nades accordingly. Keep at it and they'll fucking MELT.

>>375801862
I don't disagree. Landfall has almost everything required to make CTF an actually good mode: Short distance between intels, 3 alternate routes between the map, you don't have to pass the enemy respawn twice while carrying the intel, the intel area is nice and open and reasonably easy to spam, the map itself is quite open, etc. Also it looks great.

The only problems are

1: the spawn is literally right next door to the intel, making it easy as fuck for engineers

2: the spawn doors are very easily camped, if the individual spawn rooms were connected it would be so much better

3: when you have enough Engineers, even though Landfall's intel "room" is very reasonable to attackers, it's still so difficult to push in

No, it's way funnier as a melee weapon, they should just buff it to be rechargeable from ammo packs.
It literally says "a sober man would throw it", and Demoman already has a bunch of fucking grenades already, taking away the fun gimmick of the weapon to make it more like his other weapons is dumb
>150 damage splash with no falloff but takes several seconds to detonate
Retarded desu, we don't need people 1shotting Medics and every light class, that's why Loch and Load got nerfed.

Additionally, just because you can't replenish something without going to resupply doesn't make it balanced.
Ever played 5CP? People defending their last point have close access to their resupply cabinet. With your idea, they could constantly pop in and out of the spawn room throwing 150 damage grenades onto the floor for a constant chain of explosions.
So nobody would ever cap last, hence, the game would never end.

Think your ideas through before posting them

Read my post again, it would take several seconds to detonate so players who are paying attention won't die to it. You'd have to throw it really high to get it to detonate on impact.

>With your idea, they could constantly pop in and out of the spawn room throwing 150 damage grenades onto the floor for a constant chain of explosions.

>>375802779
1. Having the intel by the spawn is a positive to me, it means that you're going to have to have someone running interference and keeping the defending team under fire and distracted. It means that one lucky dude can't steal it and make off with it without at least SOME help from his team.
2. Camping is part of the gameplay of ctf. Having the rooms connected is a neat idea, but I just saw a new player shoot get lost and go out of bounds for like five minutes, then shoot at the bad guys through a mesh fence. With a rocket launcher.
3. Agreed. most ctf_landfall games I take part in go through this bizarre situation in which we have 5+ engineers, or none. both are a death sentence, but one is much slower than the other. Class limits would be nice.
