REMINDER THAT TF2S COMP SCENE IS EXTREMELY SOULFUL AND WAS CREATED THROUGH SHEER LOVE FOR THE GAME

REMINDER THAT TF2S COMP SCENE IS EXTREMELY SOULFUL AND WAS CREATED THROUGH SHEER LOVE FOR THE GAME.
THERE AREN'T ANY MILLION DOLLAR PRIZE POOLS, NO DEVELOPERS PUSHING A COMPETITIVE SCENE, NO SPONSORS, JUST PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PLAY THE GAME TO IT'S FULLEST POTENTIAL.
MEET YOUR MATCH WAS A TRAGEDY CAUSED BY VALVE'S INEPTITUDE WITH DEALING WITH COMMUNITY COLLABORATED UPDATES.
SEE: INVASION, END OF THE LINE, CANCELLED MAYANN AND FRONTLINE UPDATES, AND THE RECENT L4D2 THE LAST STAND COMMUNITY UPDATE.

it was doomed because the wider community doesn't care and just wants to play 24/7 2fort

Where is the last comic bros? I was waiting forever

probably never.

comp ruined the most fun weapons in the game

caused by valve being retarded and not the competitive scene,
but i digress.
lets see which weapons mym gutted.
shortstop: no one complained about it in competitive, valve is retarded
bison: no one complained about it, valve is retarded
others were just reworked and were completely fine.

Tell me Zig Forums, what do you think Team Echelon, Citadel and Vanguard looked like? Super tactical?

Litteraly who

>playing TF2 when Overwatch exists
lol will hatcucks ever learn?

Literally look at OP's image, how blind are you?

You mean like every comp scene before TI and LoL?
It's not that special, bro.

Sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of
>PINNED
>STUNNED
>SLEEP
>FREEZE
>TRAPPED

You can't hear me because you have Gaben's oozy sperm in your ears, hatcuck.

You forgot the 4 layers of barriers

honestly, yeah.
I mostly intended it as a dig at overwatch lol

>samefagging this blatantly

>reusing csgo's code and haphazardly slapping it onto tf2 counts as pushing a competitive scene

the comics were supposed to be the setup for TF3, with the last comic being the official announcement

however because TF3 got quietly canned, so did the comic

Not samefagging, but how would I prove it enough to make you shut up?

ignore him, he's just free bumps.
every comp scene from that era either died entirely or got legitimized as a commercial esport.
see counterstrike, fightans except melee, starcraft.
the only other comp scene i can think of that's in the same situation as tf2 is melee, and even then it's mostly riding off of the coattails of [most recent smash game]

Don't forget:

compfags are what killed the game in the first place. Fuck you.

The main writer was supposed to release 5he plotline ala Epistle 3 in case something similar happened after a long time. But he deleted his so we can't even ask for it now.

The script is done btw, it just needs to actually get drawn, which artists at valve have admitted years ago that they aren't working on it and probably won't.

>the only way a TF2 thread can get traction is to complain about Overwatch
lmao

How good are you guys at the game? Which gamemodes do you play and where do you place on the scoreboard usually?

hero limits exist for the same reason class limits exist in comp TF2 - when the game is played seriously, there are too many bullshit and unfun combinations that make the game even harder to balance. also uber is pretty much an overwatch style ult

Melee only still has players because it's the first with its exact style of gameplay. It's been surpassed by later mods and indie games made by the people who understand what turned out accidentally great about Melee but were willing to put in the time to polish it too.

topscore.
all core modes except ctf except landfall.
landfall is based.
also keep nightfall and pipeline in alternative gamemodes on but i never get queued for them.

All gamemodes except CTF and the ones you never get in unless you look only for them, like medieval
Top 3 consistently, unless I'm doing something way off from my typical comfort zone that doesn't hard counter anyone on the enemy team (i.e. trolldier, sniper)

Class limits are shit in tf2 comp too unless it's Highlander. 6s is a meme.

>Team Echelon
Very rich, possibly richest of them all. These are the guys who buy Hale's skins.
>Team Citadel
Possibly a reference to the HL Citadel project. They might specialize in urban combat.
>Team Vanguard
These guys guard something important. Most powerful of them all.

highlander would be unironically easier to make playable matchmaking for than 6s.
>no you go med
>no you go med
i can already imagine the arguments.
meanwhile highlander:
>you queued for that class you play that class.
if queue times would be dogshit for anyone not playing heavy, engi, or med, force people to queue for atleast 3 classes.
the fags that select spy, sniper, soldier deserve their long queue times.

why do people still care about the comics? it completely runed the mercs and made them nothing but walking jokes 24/7. sure some panels are iconic but the only people i see caring about the comics are teenage reddit kids
