Demoman on Badwater

Well I played a bit of tf2 today. I have been rather busy lately, with college stuff and going to portland and what not. So I sit down to play tf2, and today I felt like playing as demoman. I played for only three rounds on badwater, since I haven’t played much of that map. [...]

why I don’t like ubercharged.net’s class suggestions

Because the people there think that making a class all around better is better than being skilled in specific area. What I mean is that they keep posting things like this. Make the scout more effective than sentries, make the scout have a sandvich style weapon, and all that good stuff. The scout represents a [...]

Some old emails to Gabe Newell

From zzzdude: Ok, after hearing and reading of all these subtle hints of your next project after the half life series, I have grown interested in Prospero. Like, what kind of game. As in, the genre; sci-fi, fantasy, etc. And a brief description of some ideas that would represent it. I have read a lot [...]

Reserved Slot; Not Full?

Yet another mod I hate for tf2, the “YOU CAN’T JOIN THIS SERVER CAUSE THERE IS A RESERVED SLOT FOR ADMINS ONLY AND YOU ARE JUST A PUNY CUSTOMER” mod. I feel that this thing is most annoying. You attempt to join a server with 20/22 players, and can’t join because of that. I really [...]

pl_ironmountain pt. 1 The Mine

The Mine So team blu has this mountain-base, with bombs ready to destroy team red. However, team red has found this out, and has decided to use their own weapon against them. Team Red must successfully steal blu’s payload, and escort it to the top of the mountain, where a great crater exists, ready to [...]

Payload Map Idea

So lumberyard looks pretty kickass, but I don’t like the gamemode too much. I would just love a map I could explore, like badwater, goldrush, dustbowl, and the likes. I like ‘em BIG. But given that Valve is going to make more maps with the style of lumberyard, I don’t have much to worry. So [...]

Opinions on TF2 Censorship Mods.

So my last post got me thinking. But anyways, one mod that annoys the hell out of me is the one that censors you. The one that will auto-kick the guy who says three cuss words in one sentence. You see, Team Fortress 2 is rated M (for mature). That means there is going to [...]

Routers are a Bitch to the Novice.

Alrighty, so I am sort of living with a friend, he has this “Studio” in his backyard, with carpet, lighting, electricity, a fucking heater and a mini fridge. So at a modest price I am living here. It’s a nice little pad. So my awesome computer’s wireless card can’t really work right for some odd [...]

Medic and Pyro postmortem

Well, with the heavy update out I think I should explain my opinions on what valve has given the heavy, without playing it yet, and compare it to the pyro and medic. First, there was the medic. Awesome overpowered weapons (cept the kritzkrieg, that was pretty balanced) No reason to switch back to original weapons. [...]

Hey gabe, heard of the scout update?

I sware the scout will be the next class to receive the update. So, I think I’ll email gabe this: Despite yesterday’s postponement on the heavy update, I think you guys did great on the upcoming update. You got very well balanced weapons, ones that I assume to find myself switching between often, unlike the [...]
