So what you're saying is, Overwatch was designed by scrubs who were mad that scouts kept killing them.

I think it's a tragedy when red wins in any A/D situation, because it likely means most of the match was spent with blue throwing their bodies into a meat grinder because casual players won't coordinate. Not that red doesn't earn the victory, but it's just boring to play from either side.

So I think it's good that Steel becomes increasingly stacked against red.

What if there was a map where every kill red got decreased their defense timer a bit?

There was a whole video how the TF2 Medic is just better designed as character and gameplay class than Mercy so much it really isn't even funny

I mean the basic thing about every TF2 character is they're an obvious cliche but also a goofy subversion of it

This one?

oh boy here comes a medic with the vaccinator, hope you like seeing constant very specific limp and unsatisfying half-ubers when you could have been building up for crits or total invincibility

I don't like it as an enemy, I don't like it as a medic, I don't want to have it used on me as opposed to any other medigun. Bad item.

I don't really think it would work for classes besides Heavy(as the loss in range would be made up by an increase in both burst damage and mobility), especially in regards to Sniper as you forget that his SMG's are mediocre(indeed the only guns in the game that are probably outright worse are the Righteous Bison, the Manmelter, the Babyface's Blaster, and the Backscatter)

the medic technically has syringe guns ok

I get it, but I swear the older ones were a lot better produced than this, and the joke is pretty much the same as the pocket medics one.

to me the problem is that it does aoe on surface impact if you miss, which is Big Noob, it does a double hit, it does knockback, it does normal amount of afterburn damage and time, it lets you flare jump, it does extra damage on burning players and it destroys stickybombs. Individually none of these things really matter that much, but it does too many things for one single weapon.

Yeah it's exactly this. It might not be the pubstomper godgun, but it's not balanced relative to other Pyro secondaries.

Right clicking, pressing 3 and left clicking while facing a wall isn't skillful, it's an MMO button rotation. They fixed the airblast by making it actually make sense.

Final points being easy to capture is the point. It lets the game actually come to an end instead of being an endless sine wave shaped stalemate. It's comp babies whining about the fact that they lose half their games.

Payload is fine, and does a better job of ensuring every class has a role than other modes. The real issue is servers that don't regularly switch between maps with a variety of modes, and I'd trace the decline of TF2 to when they started promoting single map / type gameplay. Dustbowl 24/7 servers already existed for those that wanted them, but on the whole limiting the game to specific modes makes it stale.

Dustbowl 24/7 is just one round of Dustbowl.

From what I've seen of it it feels a little bit slower overall than PC. Like every single thing happens maybe 10% slower than I'm used to.

Man. I tried playing on Uncletopia servers and I was getting godawful ping spikes every few seconds. Weird thing was that they didn't show up on the scoreboard ping, only when I set net_graph to 2 and watched them go. From 30-40 ping to suddenly over 3000 for a full second, entire game freezing up, basically unplayable. But on Valve servers, I didn't notice a thing.

Captain Invictus on here used to have a side hustle trading TF2 items IIRC. You could maybe PM him and see if he'll help.
