I’ve never seen your channel but the editing/animation/transition slides/music is really good.

fuck valve, play tf2 classic.

This video kept me in fear more than modern Horrors

Trade ups were possibly the worst thing to ever be put into this game.

Good documentary, I shared this too all my friends that play tf2. Good watch. Like and sub from me

0:54 is anyone ANYONE else going to acknowledge that our player base is toxic af for some reason?

It makes me so sad. This game was one of the few games that still had soul to it, that had a clear idea and presentation that wasn't just created for money. No other game has such a lovable cast and such great gameplay. I really hope that Valve starts focusing on their games again because this game is something special to me.

Love that House intro

Amazing work and great point

If the real number of players is about 20K, then that's actually still amazing for a game this old. And it still remains firmly in Steam's top 100 most active games.

Never let bro cook again 🗣️‼️🔥

I'm having a lot of time right now so I'll probably conduct my research within the SEA region, more specifically Hongkong and Singapore and Australia servers. I have seen a lot of peculiar stuffs here due to the fact that the player number is abhorrently low.

TF2 has fallen

Love the house reference. Subbed.

the amount of effort this video puts in to debunk communities' disbeliefs is too much, like, it does NOT need an hour worth of fancy graphs and going through every theory one by one i might be a hypocrite that needs it in a short format with hyperedited explosions and skibidi toilet but like, people would still get it, the game is at its lowest, valve is snoozing doing nothing, fucking amazing

Also huh never knew you were from texas. 1st hot take anywhere but austin is good. Id rather move to somalia chicago detroit north korea etc before i step foot in austin. Ill pack up to mcallen and get overweight in the most overweight city in the USA and die of a heart attack before i say austin is a good place. To cherry pick the hot takes or condense them. 1. Sniper isnt opd but is broken like spy. Spy works best when enemies are lower skilled. Sniper works better when the player is better skilled. The reason why spy is bad us because you cannot really curve the skill ceiling as stated vs sniper. You can trickstab but unless they give spy disguises better stuff like reloading animations like eating a sandvich as heavy or bonk as scout etc then he will be always terrible. Sniper needs reworks. Tracer rounds but also encouraging both fully charged shots and bodyshots. Reducing ammo to 9 + 1 in chamber (1 for each class) longer reload and for sure critting 100% no falloff damage headshots on full charges only. Since in the video sniper is supposed to be proficient but timed and calculated shots not some spam crazy gunman. It would also buff other rifles indirectly or could be rebalanced. The biggest issue is headshots which aside from amby spies no other class does and focuses on splash damage or direct bodyshotting on the hitboxes. It needs to be rid of or nerfed quickscoping and encourage less CQC hence no RC or crits on melee for the RANGED class. Random crits (RC) are fine. The system for them isnt. A better one would be earned crits or pity crits like in mannpower. Pity crits = die too many times and or dominated you get pit crits to get you out of that slump. Earned random crits = deal damage during fights. Die respawn and when you start firing timer shoots off. 1st shot or few seconds 2 seconds or 1st melee swing is a guranteed crit. Then 15 seconds of random 30% to 60% melee RC chance then timer resets to 0 until you die and respawn or at least head back to spawn to reset the RC timer. Also remove general damage for RC make each class unique Scout = objective pts and damage from mid to close range bodyshots Soldier = splash damage from rockets Pyro= afterburn damage and reflected projectile damage Demo=grenade splash damage and sticky trap damage. Also shield bash and melee damage for demoknights Heavy = damage overall BUT ALSO DAMAGE RECIEVED. meaning a heavy taking 200 damage healing 400 damage etc will get more % RC chance Engineer = aside from sentry damage support from teleports and dispenser pts. Also repairs not only your own buildings but other engy buildings. Medic = assists and heal. Any type pure and simple. Also ubercharges to add some extra spice Sniper = full charge crit headshots. Also assists and support would give better RC %s as a support class Spy = backstab damage but also building sapper damage. Meaning the RTR would be a godsent and regular sappers engies would make it worse if they keep removing sappers instead of going for the spy himself. All would encourage team play and reward it. Unlike undeserved RC from just spamming. It would also make more sense. You go into battle Fight Retreat to base (spawn) or respawn You used knowledge from battles to land more deadly damage shots on enemies. It works until enemies change tactics aka the short timer. Rinse and repeat. It wouldn't reward mindless spam the never utilized players who dish out tons of damage and dont meed em but instead reward people cooping doing their roled and the objectives. 1st 100% crits have a low requirement. To reach 30% or 70% on melee random crit chance you'd need a lot more pts from your class specific objectives.

Ironically competitive MLG and esport tournaments took a nose dive. So valve never thought it would end.

Honestly overdose works better with some considerations 1. You stick to the quick fix or better yet vaccinator. Back when vacc medigun was broken you could buildup in roughly 25 seconds all 4 bars making you a speed demon easily. It still works but harder to build up but not AS risky. 2. It lost viability once all mediguns ran as fast as their patient if they were faster sadly. It still works on when there are no allies or a wipe. If the 1st you overextended with 1 patient or you should stick to allies. 3. Solemn vow is the perfect pair up for this when using the enemy health gauge to better track who to kill. 4. On 3 soften the enemies up with the syringe needles then bash their heads in. Trust me the extra damage adds higher random crit % chance 5. Avoid using it on stock medigun. Pop it dont drop it. 6. Kritz yup use it because wont give benefits and you can at least try to save crits for allies. 7. Quick fix save uber till at about 50 health then pop and use it to run away. 8. On vaccinator actually a great combo especially 1 v 1s. Set the resistance first swap to overdose right as they are about to shoot pop uber. Right as it is about to be reduced switch back to overdose or melee and keep pop to reduce damage close in and melee them or to back away around a corner then run backwards. Every pop only uses 25% ubercharge meaning you can pop and retain 75%. If you do it right you can meme with the ubersaw to have essentially infinte temp resistances and on a 1 v 1 its gonna be in YOUR favor ALOT. 9. The blutzsaguer is imo a better pick if you wanna shoot syringed at it heals you with every shot you make. Arch the needles and pull out an amputator and you're pretty much set from low red healthbsingle digits back to near full health distracting enemies to give allies a chance to reach you. 10. You should lead enemies to allies. Even if firing because then you can get them buffs like meter charges KGB crits sentry kills / assists for FJ crits etc. Plus assists give you the most pts. Healing but more so assists count from mediguns so assists from damage from weapons also gives relatively high scoreboard points. The Overdose needs a small buff / rework. Imo a good idea sorta: +passive speed buff with or without the syringe gun out -start slow at -15% speed on 0% uber quickly moving up to base speed at 25% +25% movement speed at 100% ubercharge 0 (neutral 0 symbol) during ubercharge speed boost remains until uber depleted This would make it pair extremely well with quick fix but also be a great juke weapon. The way mediguns work now you move as fast as the heal target. So start off at heavy speed and rely on allies to move faster and build uber. Then you can passively have the speed boost as you build up. It would be a high risk high reward weapon that helps move around but also makes you THINK when to pop because if your patient dies you're a sitting duck. Paired with quick fix it makes it a very good syenergy of support weapon to keep near allies callout low health enemies and also be able to dodge shots a bit easier.

Great points Zesty and I applaud the meticulous research. Its sad to see this become a reality. I always knew in the back of my mind that bots made up a large size of players but never considered the consequences or how large it really is. I wonder how much other games on steam are affected by valve's inaction not only by bots but scams and asset flips

you lost me at 35:45 nice try teaching me maths

Quick fix lost use once the crossbow and amputator were added and was good for speed buffs that now all mediguns have default. Meaning you could leash a scout and rush to front lines. Now its mostly for jumping with soldiers demos and pyros and charging with demoknights. The faster heal is great if you got tons of say heavies but mostly on low health. Mid health or higher use the stock. The other issues are the medieval mode weapons Crossbow once you get good enough just makes it easier to close the gap and encourages distances as more distance = more potent healing and doubles to damage enemies that it lands on. Not to mention crit healing and crit damage on enemies 😂 Amputator takes the quick fix concept and ramps it up 10X folds as more allies around you = now you heal at around base heal of a medigun a little less BUT EVERYONE so now you would say heal from a medigun 10 hp per sec vs say 6 on amputator. But you heal 6 X however many allies AND YOURSELF very important as the buffed up to +5 hp regen from the regen boost when pulled out. So now having only 1 extta patient heals much more than the quick fix. Imo quick fix is also hammered down by overheal. This makes it a medigun for healing but overhealing can cause allies to lose less health overall. Ever try to kill a just fresh kill kunai spy? Or half zatochi demo / soldier? Yup Id buff it slightly by extending uber to maybe double or an extra 1/2 duration so about 12-16 seconds which would bump up everyone to full health plus a little overheal. Also another buff extend the beam by 2X making you a much more reliable distance healer. This would make the quick fix better as a safer option / better support sidegrade medigun since the speed bonuses were added to the other mediguns. It would also help new medics but run risk as 1 pyro with the third egree can do you in or a spy can stab or scout kill you and run away and distance means allies being healed cannot react fast enough vs being essentially glued to them at all times lol. Then it can compete with other mediguns for utility. Uber = pure raw 100% damage tanking invuln push. Short fused quickly destroy key targets get in get out Kritz = high damage high risk high reward weapon. Kill or be killed Vaccinator = tanking damage and making smaller but significant pushes in the front lines and against enemies or close distance from snipers and spam from soldiers and demos. Also sentry fire Quick fix = supportive medic role. Now you can swap between patients and lose ubercharge but wont matter as the charge and longer beam encourages it. Pure raw support medigun heal people and another medic tops off allies with overheal instead of just 2 medics pocketing / healing 2 patients at a time. Pair with crossbow and you can pretty much have a healthy team where very people don't often die to having low health retreating or on fire Or are never below 50% health if done right.

bruh this games dead asf

What if they could disable all sniper rifles game wide on all official servers until we get a fix for the bots? This would at least make the bots less annoying. (Sorry to all my legit sniper players, its the only way.)

At this point, they should honestly consider implementing some sort of CAPTCHA system when opening the game, or at least when joining matches. It won't be 100% foolproof, but making it more of a hassle for people to create and operate hundreds of accounts simultaneously more difficult.

Array’s spectrum is just really tongue in cheek. It’s implied that people that are on the “friendly” spectrum aren’t playing tf2, which is just wrong. TF2 is a massive water park that caters to everyone, but they only seem to want everyone in the lap pool because they think only competitive swimmers would go to the water park. Would Array consider people that play Class Wars on the friendly side since it’s not the official modes? It’s just horribly flawed and weak arguments from my perspective

Good vid but too much anime shit, hentai addict 🏀

what's the map at 52:49

32:50 that's bouncy

I don't think you want to kill the bots... the player count for the game will drop to around 1,000 players or so. Unturned should be up the ass with community servers and players (in server for the in game server browser) but the game feels dead. Edit: 31:30 Exactly... Open your eyes bruh, you are playing with the same 200 ppl all day in Tf2s servers... Overwatch gets more players than this game.

I suggest better solution. Just quit and move on with your life. Maybe come back for like remembering good old days till you get annoyed with such problems and move on...

Hey! Great video

The real angle to play here is to get Valve to fix Steam itself, Banana is probably the most botted game on the platform atm and it only shows that Valve can't control their own platform software if it's so easy to automate the creation of accounts and subsequent botting, an issue that could actually cost them credibility as a platform and potentially money. Fixing Steam's botting problem would also indirectly fix TF2's botting at least partially, hell, all their games have botting issues these days and it's getting out of control.

this is the level of investigative journalism i want from everywhere

did not fucking expect to see csarphong in a tf2 video (the person who drew the pyro at the beginning)

LOVE THE HOUSE INTRO

I would be interested in seeing how much money is generated by these bots.

Literally the only reason I don't use this is because Crit flares exist, I NEED that Crit particle or my brain won't make the happy chemicals

ur absolutely right about trans women shouldnt be able to race on women sports

I am not a fan of weapon skins in TF2 and I just hope (provided Valve doesn't pull out the plug on TF2 and bots don't run loose still) that people mass trade up as many skins as humanly possible and make almost all weapon skins become a rarity.

I dont care about tf2. But the video was great :)

Immediate Solving

The fact they hated Jesus just bc of the past some people are ass and zesty Jesus wants to help tf2 live don’t hate people for the past if they are trying to get the same goal to save a game #fixtf2 ❤

when the jesus is zesty

@6:41 Love how they use “body positivity” and “being trans” as an excuse for being a Diddy advocate

Valve's attempt to put CS:GO aspects into TF2 is what really killed it for me. It's been downhill ever since then.

look, I'm gonna be real, I am a newer, and younger player, only about half a year older than TF2 itself, and I don't really have room to talk here, BUT, I like voicing my opinions, and in this case, I love the game and community interactions, I find objectors to be funny, and I hate a bunch of bullshit censorship and sterilization. Hell, one of my favorite parts of playing the game is the user interactions, whether that be ridiculous stuff said in voice or text chat, or funny decals, and when someone pull out an objector, half the time the game stops momentarily cause everyone wants to get a peek at what has been put on it, and I think that's great. anyway, I know I'm late to this by a year, but I don't give a fuck, I'm glad that decals are still in the game.
