    i got second-hand catharsis from all your reactions to my video :) you're exactly right, i try to focus on the more tangible and technical flaws of casual/MYM because i wanna get through to all of the people that joined after MYM and whose first reaction to reading the title is to write me off as an angry boomer. eagerly awaiting your MYM video filling in the gaps that i left out

      This video is much better than the MYM one (don't get me wrong, your MYM video is still amazing) You hit the nail on many problems. that many like us were saying for years but lacked the platform to say so. thanks for your effort.
      Also i assume from your comments section, you realize that the best course now is to just get Quick play back. we should not have map selection, that is also another problem with casual that hardly anyone touch on. it kill least played maps. it been years since i played on hydro or nightfall.

    All these petitions and outcries with no solutions proposed outside of vague calls to action.
    I wish they all got off their asses to demand something concrete instead: that Valve revert quickplay back to how it used to be.
    MYM removed the flow of players from quickplay into community servers and destroyed the amount and variety of those servers that relied on quickplay players to populate them, and created this breeding ground for bots with its shitty matchmaking systems incentivizing players to empty and repopulate servers at the end of each map, allowing groups of bots to fill up the players slots and do their damage. Instead of servers staying populated with human players trickling in and out naturally through the day like any other good community server.

    I feel like closing tf2 down won't have a sufficent enough effect on dota2/cs2 market if any at all
    People will have a little spooky spook for day or two but it will come back right where it was before
    The market is just too damn big
    Valve is not closing down tf2 because of that, they keep lights on just because they can I guess
    Same reason they keep lights on l4d2 servers even though it's brings even less money
    Sad truth is that even if tf2 will bring excactly 0$ dollars a month - valve won't even publically aknowledge that :(

    @pikazilla6405 5 місяців тому +7

    The What made an incredible point on why valve hasn't shut down tf2 despite their lack of care for the money it brings in and that's the fact they basically can't. The inventories of tf2 players have real world value due to the micro economy they made and rendering that worthless would, at best, create community outrage and distrust with valve from players in CS2 with their micro economy when they realize "oh shit, valve can just delete these items I spent real world money on, I need to get out of here FAST" and at worst bring valve full on legal hell. It's this obligation to maintain the value of player inventories that causes them to do what little they do for the game at all and it's a reason completely separate from the money tf2 actually generates for valve.

    Is competitive even active anymore? When MYM dropped you couldn't even find a game when everyone was rank 1, so I NEVER got to play a full game of competitive. Theres no way I'd ever be able to find a match of it now. People fucking HATED that update on launch too, I don't know where the volvo apologetics came from over the years.
    I go back to CS:GO/CS2 intermittently and I'm shocked at how little content we get. People want operations, they'll happily drop the cash for the Op pass. Valve can't even make regular events that change up the game ostensibly with new maps, but is really a revenue generator. The cheating is still a problem to varying degrees. I don't think VAC Live is a real thing at all.

    For me, the biggest issue with the movement is that "flash in the pan" you describe. Why did #FixTF2 have to start on the 3rd when it could be any day? We cant just have a single battle here, it needs to be a constant siege.
    Also man, as a fan of the Halo franchise its oddly comforting to hear TF2 suffered a similar issue of trying to force it to be competitive instead of just letting that naturally branch out. Comp players can stay in their bubble and play how they want, dont force it onto the game at large, because thats very very harmful.

Depending on the success of the project pa increases or decreases. Since tf2 is such a nightmare to code anything for it basically is never worth working in since the return of invest is 0. Tf2 will not break playercounts unless its fixed and remade from the ground up and the commitment just just isn't there since it would mean low pay for many months/years and even then its unknown if that will ever continue to be profitable.

    The only way to fix bots and cheating in tf2 is eternal vigilance. People can get DMA type of cheat that will cost them as much as Raspberry Pi component and that cheat itself (this work against kernel anti cheat btw, super effective) . People already pay 30$ subscription for cheating. Valorant is not cheat free like they love to act.
    Or you know, Valve could give us Quick Play and fix majority of the problem is also making tf2 far more fun. AND getting Quickplay is much easier imo.

      idk, I play Valo and I have seen like 3 cheaters in like 1.8k hours, reported once and they got banned in no time, if there's been cheaters then they are seriously closeted and extremely good at hiding it, which at that point they are just indistinguishable from good players anyways, hence not really hindering the experience, unlike the blatant cheaters we have in TF2, plus, I actually kind of doubt that there are many people who would be interested on getting hardware level cheats, like yeah, there probably are some but I wouldn't think they are close to be enough to make a case for Valo to be fake news when it comes to being cheater-free

      @@MoundN I don't know what UA-camr is peddling WOW comparison that you passionately inserted here but they need a reality check comparing this to TF2. Subs dropped not because there was some grandeur boycott, the content was just shit and that's why they whined and Blizzard was resistant because they would tacitly admitting that they are making shit. It took them almost 10 years to do so, btw. How are you going to gauge "sub drops" with TF2? Ref to key rate? Suddenly whales will drop thier 10k backbacks and jump out of windows for your annual tantrum?
