Not really, if anything he feasts upon the marketing bullshit and lies used by big publishers to sell games and creates over dramatizations of their 'betrayal' of the consumer, who are both stupid enough to purchase the game, and stupid enough to believe it was all the publishers fault when Crowby says so.

I recommend everyone study, or at least understand the basic concepts of; macro and micro economics from a current source and look into the human behavioral sciences.

The real world advantage you gain by understanding some of these marketing strategies makes you less susceptible to being conned and makes you far more likely to jump on a good opportunity business or relations wise.

I feel fucking retarded saying this video is a good place to start, but for the thousands of people on this board playing videogames this is an example of the power that one marketing model has and how that has completely changed an entire entertainment medium.

>>382784768
that you can't pick up weapons now.
>>
>>382784895

My guess is the game still has to run at roughly the same specs as it did in 2007 so if they add a bunch of hats and shit that are technically more complex than the old models, they have to dumb other things down to compensate for it.
>>
>>382776672
oh boy another thread about tf2 "downgrades" all because of crowbcunt made yet another retarded video focused on this.

Seriously why the fuck does this matter? all the stuff that was shown in crowbcat's video was minor changes over the years that you didn't even know about and i'm 100% sure you never gave a since fuck about because you were too busy enjoying the game. both you and I know that this doesn't effect gameplay what so ever.

>>382785021
I know this is going to sound odd but...
back in the good old days there was a pretty badass move to do when low on ammo- fire a rocket behind a dropped weapon and blast it to you to refill your stock
felt so cool when you actually did it, in the competitive scene you would see that move every now and then

>tfw hydro hasn't changed in a decade
Its the one map that is still pure.

But TF2 died to its major long time fanbase in 2016 with Meet Your Match.

The player base has just been offset by 3rd worlders and kids getting in because its free.

Just check the server browser, 95% of all the good community maps are long gone and the majority are underage mods and furries.

Its a shame, the games gameplay still stands up after the tests of time, but the skeleton crew that "maintains" the game has literally done everything possible to alienate the original playerbase and piss them off more and more.

>>382782006
TF2-wise, literally the only point worth making was the silhouettes, and they aren't that affected by cosmetics anyway.
Even with every single cosmetic in the game loaded onto classes and in black and white, you can STILL roughly tell what class they are.
And that's not a situation you'll ever come up against since players are never outlines and never wear more than 4 cosmetics.

Put creepy music behind pictures of something and immediately it's meant to be a bad thing?

You CAN instantly tell in the in-game situation you mongoloid. Learn to read.
I'm showing how you can still roughly tell even in the most exaggerated situation. The one where the class is only a black outline with every single cosmetic in the game equipped which does not happen in gameplay.

The normal game is nothing like the most exaggerated situation, and you CAN instantly tell. Next time read more of my post than the first two sentences.

Hey shut the fuck up.
A game is dead when you can't find anyone to play.
TF2, in the last two weeks, had 1,800,000 players. https://steamspy.com/app/440 It is as far from "dead" as a game can possibly be.

Valve introducing a shit game mode and dropping it due to lack of interest does not make a game dead.

Valve introducing some cosmetic shit you can't even see if you aren't wearing a particular cosmetic doesn't make a game dead.

You're just listing when you lost interest with the game and calling it "dead".
The world does not revolve around you.

I don't care anon. They're a company. It would be ridiculous to expect them not to think about their game in terms of money, it costs them money to run servers and make updates.

The game is good. Very good. One of the best FPSes on the market.

90% of that image is speaking about cosmetic items as if every single instance of Valve adding a hat to Team Fortress 2 was a separate instance of mass murder.

You want to see a company who actually does shit to their games? Look at pic.

Two reasons why you're a nigger.

>people defending a forced graphics downgrade

I'm not saying it's the biggest deal in the world, but downgrading the graphics for the sake of optimisation and not adding the option to retain the better shaders etc. for those who can actually run it is simply developer laziness.

It's possible that the reason for the changes is also that the newer weapons/cosmetics didn't light properly under the old lighting model for whatever reason, but they should have fixed the new stuff rather than lowering the standard of everything so they didn't have to.

What about all the in-game graphics changes?

>>382793621
>but downgrading the graphics for the sake of optimisation and not adding the option to retain the better shaders etc
Well for a start everyone saying "They did this for optimization" is wrong anyway.
It's because Valve changed model systems from v_ and w_ models to c_models and from dx8 to dx9, and a bunch of things accidentally broke as a result that they haven't had time or interest to fix since, as you can see, they're so fucking minor that most people didn't even notice at all until Crowbcat made a video.

From the updates over time, not just hats. Weapons, maps, particles, and cosmetics contributed to it too. All of these things came with poor optimization or optimization that was broken eventually after another update and went unrepaired.

I remember when the Cow Mangler came out and it was a complete toaster killer. They were at least smart enough to patch that, but I don't think they fixed the Phlogistinator doing the same thing.

Every Soldier runs stock Rocket Launcher, stock Shotgun, and one of two utility melee weapons.

Every Demoman runs stock Grenade Launcher, stock Sticky Bomb Launcher, and then there's a ton of melee weapons to choose from, none of them being really that much better than stock because you won't be using it much anyways.

Every Medic mainly runs the Crusader's Crossbow, which IS better than the Syringe Gun because it heals people at a distance, either stock Medigun or Kritzkrieg, which is an achievement item, and the Ubersaw, which is also an achievement item.

The Heavy runs stock Minigun, Sandvich, which is an achievement item, the best melee weapon for Heavy is banned by most leagues since it mitigates his one weakness a bit, but basically all of them ARE better than stock.

Scout usually runs stock Scattergun, stock Pistol, but only because everything better (lunchbox items and Winger) are banned, and most people prefer the consistency and reliability of the stock Bat, but the Fan-O-War, Boston Basher, and Sandman have their uses.

Overall, unless another weapon is truly better, which is rare because most weapons are balanced around stock, stock is the way to go.

There might be something wrong or outdated about anything I said. I'm honestly not even that familiar with the competitive rulesets.

Literally all that video proved is that TF2 needs a spring cleaning update. A lot of the changes are just compiling errors, especially in the case of the maps.

Yes, that's dumb, but it's not intentional and easily fixable.

>>382796036
atomizer is getting nerfed so now basher will be the clearly best Scout melee for a skilled player, meaning that basher jumping will be a relevant skill insofar as "I am wielding basher because it's better than atomizer, but i need to jump to this weird spot".

I remember seeing b4nny use basher jumping one time to escape an enemy on Upward and survive.

This has happened in the past to other games that introduced modular cosmetics. Character models went from single item assets to Heads,Torso,Legs,Arms, etc. That way players could mix and match their dress-up game.

Why is it so difficult to find Dota 2's multimedia stuff? Videos are buried under a figurative ocean of esports videos(although given how lucrative Dota 2 is, understandable). The comics you basically have to do a whole runaround to track.

A TF2 hardcover collection of all the comics would be nice.

I'm more worried about IF there are going to be any more comics since all the writers left.
