Valve starting banning the bots. Now we can play the game without bots.

It's sad that the game never reached its true potential, and probably never will. It's literally a timeless masterpiece.

It's funny to me that valve thinks they can replace tf2 with their new MOBA shooter.

Oh hey, nice video!

TF2 has a bigger problem than Valve's neglect: it lost its identity a long time ago, shortly after it went free-to-play and got a large influx of new players who didn't really care about or like its artstyle and brand of humor, and it's now filled with horrendously out of place and generic cosmetics. The competitve scene demanding balance changes on weapons they had no intentions to allow in competitive matches anyway, and for reasons that can easily be countered with "get good" (seriously, their complaints were mainly that they didn't want to learn to play with and against these weapons) also ruined fun parts of the game for casual players. There is no unified TF2 community anymore, it's all a bunch of warring factions trying to pull the game in different directions and turn it into something it isn't, and they already succeeded at the latter.

Im glad valve got on the treadmill and banned cheaters/hosters, maybe valve will do the promised heavy update but thats copeium

People are so passionate about tf2 that not even valve themselves can kill it.

I play games to bully noobs

The Funny Piss Man. Next question, please.

this Game is a part of our Childhood , the Gmod end SFMs the story end characters we grow attached to them at least is how i view why its so loved buy the way a game with such History surviving 12 years against OW rivalry end Bots end cheaters is absolutely insane. 👍👍

Finally valve listened to the community and the bans waves are happening

the community and the game do tho. full of snowflakes

gofizer

you are a beast

The bots are getting ban

i can actually also remember my first game(s) of tf2. the very first time i tried it i was at a friend's house and he was playing it on his xbox, and he let me try after he died. we were defending the 2nd point of the 2nd stage of dustbowl, i picked spy and left spawn, then died immediately because they were capping and spawncamping us. the first time i tried on my own was on my own steam account with an old laptop, i picked soldier because he was the first class introduced in the tutorial. it was frontier and i was on offense, i left spawn and saw another soldier on our team get a sick airshot so i stood there like "woah holy shit," then i got sniped because i was standing still. i think the fact that we can remember this far back in our experiences with tf2 (these were at least a decade ago for me, might've been longer for you) is a testament to how both memorable and engaging the game is. valve really struck gold with tf2 and i don't think there's going to be anything like it ever again, so seeing it be neglected over the years has been saddening. i hope the recent anti-bot measures are a sign of things changing for the better long-term, but im not about to get my hopes up because it's valve.

a bit late mate valve banned near all bots days ago

For me, just game maintenance & bug patches are enough. It's clear that TF2 is in a "final" state where we will likely not (or rarely) see new content in the foreseeable future. Besides the community has been given tool to both host & mod TF2 to both modify & add new weapons & other content they see fit, UNLIKE SOME GAMES.

69 likes don't change it pls(it's funny)

There just isn't another game that scratches the same itch. Nothing else *FEELS* as good as TF2. I have difficulty imagining anything ever will.

As Asian tf2 player, this resonates with me. tf2 soul was killed by Valve in MYM. Quickplay literally allowed many Asian servers to have players. i remember even playing hydro or nightfall here. After MYM dropped. not only all of them died but the Asia tf2 community sinked. i see the same people in casual. and it's rare to find a Vet like me. the bots and Valve neglect is a byproduct of MYM and matchmaking. We need quick play back, we need them to undo the many bad nerfs post MYM etc... "​​Meet your match and its consequences have been disastrous to the tf2 casuals." #BringBackQuickplay

I WAS UP LATE NIGHT BALLIN

As asian player we had no bots for like quite awhile

tf2 fkin blows

COME BACK TO ATF2L

It's a unique game with tons of variety and playstyle yet didn't fall into being overcomplex like other modern cringe-based mp games.

i still remember the first time i trimp on my demoknight , thats the moment i fell in love to that sub class and to the game , (and also sticky jump , i suck at rocket jump sadly ;w;)

Видео устарело. Ботов забанили.

Based asian TF2 enjoyer

Because tf2 is overhyped compared to it's actual player base, everyone's telling you how influential it is while it's not and almost nobody playing it when they tell you this

I don't think TF2 will ever die but support will eventually stop but it should be fine since there would be community servers still

the geam go funny scream and killbind, so basically thats why i keep playin the game

yea

The only thang that i dont like is the single weapon choice you have unless your playing warfarer. Dd1 had a ranged attack and a cc attack with no penalties. After 200 hrs it still doesn't make sense to me.

It's possible, based on the cue cards and the lack of follow up questions, that Microsoft only agreed to the interview if Bloomberg was willing to send them the questions beforehand and not go off script. This has the same vibe as a corporate video conference where the interviewer who works at the company "interviews" their own boss.

The problem with corporations (not just Xbox) these days is very simple and as much as people want to consider these are just conspiracy theories, we have many examples including this one...

This is a very intelligently put together and professional feeling video essay. I liked the video a lot and hope to see more from you in the future.

"Nearly"? They did not reverse anything. Game is still delisted in the countries that have no PSN access. Basically: "All the peope, who are not allowed to own a PSN account, you don't have to link your PSN account, don't worry. Still can't play the game tho, it's not sold in your country!" :')

Sony still will they haven’t fully reversed the decision yet. The game is still delisted in 177 countries.

A full track record of their data breaches can be found here: firewalltimes.com/sony-data-breach-timeline

Blade of Darkness has, overall, a better dynamic than the Dark Souls games. In my admittedly biased opinion. It's nowhere near as fluid or as polished - being in many ways the archetype of the genre - but I think Soulsborne punishes the player too much. Also, strangely enough, while I don't like combos - I much prefer the more familiar system now where any ability can just be activated using a particular button - there is something about mastering a particular set of key sequences to unleash the really powerful stuff.

Some games like the Dark Souls series and other Souls games, use the lack of hit reaction from the enemy to broadcast to the player that they have a large amount of poise. In that context, it makes sense why those types of enemies would not have a reaction to your attacks, as it really does convey to the player that they are either severely under-leveled to be attacking that enemy, or that you'll need to rely on more than straight up brute force direct attacks to take them down.

Very nice video!

Hey everyone! Do you like this format? What did you not like about it? What would you want to see me improve on? Let me know, I'll do my best to respond to as many comments as possible! This is the first time I'm posting something like this where it'smore focused on the breakdown of gameplay mechanics and adding some sort of analysis and commentary in terms of what I enjoy about certain games. Really appreciate all the support so far and I cannot wait to show you all the cool new videos I have planned. Take care and have a great day ahead!

UPDATE: During my time editing this video together and playing it a little more, performance and stability is still an issue. Gamebreaking bug happened twice now where game audio basically doesn't load and objects are invisible sometimes. Game's still fun, but right now it's pretty rough around the edges. If stability and performance are big things for you when making a game purchase, I'd suggest holding off on buying it for the time being. I'll be covering this more as time passes and will likely make a full length edited video talking about the game in more detail once I finish it and it's had more time to be fleshed out by the devs. @moonstudios sponsor me pls xd

It wasn't the greed, it was the overreaction by manchildren.

Tbf none of the micro transactions are at all needed and often even a worse version of what in game currency buys you. It looks more like a way to appease Capcom that likely pushed for some form of monetization. Skipping the game purely for the micro transactions is a stupid call here. I for one run a mid range PC (3700x and Rx 6700 xt) and have run into zero performance issues. (well, it crashed twice)

The one save slot is a game design decision as it was in the first game. It is lore related and actually encourages replayability, I NEVER did NG+ in games, the only game I cared enough was Bloodborne, other than that I feel it's not worth the trouble. In Dragon's Dogma, NG+ carries over your itens, XP and Vocation levels, which means a game that was completed in 67 hours (my game time as stated in the credits), can now be completed in 20 hours or so, even less if you only do the main quests. If you care enough about the game to stop your current playthrough, create a different character, play for hours, just to see what a different decision would've led to, then surely you can beat the game first and do all that in NG+, and probably way faster too. Dragon's Dogma respects your time, nothing is lost, you'll never need to face the same problems you had in your first playthrough, because subsequent playthroughs are that much faster and enjoyable. Also, the game doesn't scale enemies on NG+ (at least on the 1st one it didn't, I am yet to start my NG+ of the second), because it defeats the whole purpose of carrying everything over. It makes farming levels, discipline and materials easier in order to get better gear and prepare for the inevitable DLC that will come. The loop works for a lot of people, and I don't think making it as all other RPGs would be a good thing, Dragon's Dogma was and thankfully still continues to do it's own thing.

sometimes reviews matter but in my experience they often dont its just people saying a game isnt for them,i loved allot of games with bad/mixed reviews.

Micro actions didnt ruin shit. Still love it. Only broke kids cry about that stuff. THey have to make money this isnt socialism butter cup.
