Hit lvl 12 no idea what I'm doing. Gave my friend a flame thrower so we could do the weekly objective. Dual Flame Throwers with the supply packs to constantly reload is stupid and my fans hate it. Someone wanted me to get a rover / guard dog and how dare you try and get me to meta so early into the game. Haven't done any of the automaton missions yet.

I feel like you have a disadvantage using stratagems vs using a controller as opposed to aim being easier on KB/M. But I never tried controller for this so I don't know what the aiming experience is like.

I've been crashing mid mission like crazy :smith:

edit: Someone took my ammo backpack from the pod and when I just stared at them they dropped it. Then I crashed again.

I'm also having a weird issue where I can't skip the intro movie and I get this spinning loading symbol in the top right instead. I know you need to press escape but I get trapped in this movie.

Dumb question but how do you drop a thing?

On PC you press and hold the X key and it pulls up a radial menu. On ps5 I think you hold down on the d pad?

Here is my no research non reading the whole thread rear end opinion for armor balance after using the grenade launcher and supply pack. Fortification lets you rocket jump and you take less damage the heavier the armor. :colbert:

I had my first experience with a guy I accidentally killed respawning and killing me out of spite, and then not reinforcing.

If I killed everybody who killed me I'd have more friendly kills than enemy kills.

I’ve had instances of lower level players killing me for my support weapon. This is when I get vindictive. Some dude picked up an auto cannon with 3 shots left and no anmo backpack. Shoots me takes my flamethrower and goes to the upload data side objective. Higher level players drop strats on you and say gg in the chat.

Auto cannon incident irks me more.

Diff 4. Everything went to poo poo after I blew myself up with the mech. The person with 10 rare samples died they are matadoring the Charger while I grab the samples.

If you want this gangtag:



Notes/Rules:

1) Quote this post within the next 24 hours or so, cutoff time will be 14/03/24 9am UTC (you can of course buy the gang tag for yourself at any point, this is just for the freebies)

2) If you already have the max amount of gang tags (3) please tell me which one to remove to make room in your quote post.

3) Desire for this gang tag was way higher than I expected. If your only post in this thread is asking for the gang tag I am probably not going to queue one for free, apologies. I queue these up but admins still have to sign off on em and we're apparently discouraged from handing them out like candy :v:

I like playing demoman but I like playing pyro too. The problem is when I play pyro we get a bunch of spies that just tank the flames and rush you for the kill or the enemy team rolls a bunch of jarate spewers and I can only think "I should've played demo"

I love mounting the supply drop every time and climbing up on every box that has ammo or samples on top of it.

I did this by accident as it was deploying and got launched into the air.

vvvvv At least if it's into an Automaton base you can try and land your hellpod on a fabricator and clear that out.

Legionnaire armor just so I can chuck these beacons out of the bs just as the new diver just Leroy’s in.

Another option is just taking the top-tier Muscle Enhancement booster since it not only is insanely helpful for traversal but it significantly reduces the slow effect when you take a melee hit and lets you run away from hoppers and hunters anyway.

Y'all sure you're explicitly getting kicked? Only ask because cascading crashes that take it once person after another in a short period have been pretty common lately.

It’s always given me a big YOU HAVE BEEN KICKED. But there is a lot of THE HOST HAS QUIT right after missions end so sometimes I wonder.

As opposed to games like monster hunter where getting kicked is you are given a connection error.
