    I think the reason the auto rifle and the sniper rifle look alike are because they're supposed to be the same weapon in different firing modes. They both use the same ammo pool and they look identical, the reason he doesn't scope is probably because that thing has some recoil that is probably not good for your face.

      The TFC characters seem more grounded in reality, they're like rugged battle scarred veterans. The TF2 characters are stereotypes bursting with flavorful dialogue and interactions.

      Yeah and tfc has a more fair gameplay maybe except scout. Sniper is easier to play with in tfc, i barely get headshots in tf2 but you never need to headshot in tfc. Also you cant even headshot, you need to aim upwards from their head a bit, its tricky and hard but you dont need to headshot. You can kill all classes with a charged bodyshot except soldier and heavy. All classes has unieqe grenades. Tho i would like scout to have anıther unieqe weapon like how engineer has the railgun as a secondary. Scout only has one barrel shotgun and the chaingun with 200 ammo. Tho he is actually effective if you have skill. Its always helpful, you distract enemies, most likely slow them down or making them drunk and cant hit a shot.

      I left it off the "if it was in TF2" kind of weapon stat thing because it would also imply the TF2 Sniper Rifle had 75 ammo too. So it doesn't really work out that way if you're looking at it on its own.

    • @LostGameDev102
      @LostGameDev102 Рік тому +1

      @@SquimJim Hey I love your vid however I do believe there is a problem with the series. The problem is that half-life 1 and half-life 2 damage & health values are very different ( Half-Life 2's damage, armor, and health are increased from Half-Life 1's) TFC's damage, health, and armor are closer to Half-life 1's values then Half-Life 2's And TF2's health, and damage are closer to Half-Life 2's. So a base health of 90 in TFC (without including armor) is actually closer to 125 health when compared to TF2 because the damage that the TFC weapons do is less when compared to tf2 weapons to account for the lower health. I think that this problem of lower damage weapons being designed for lower health classes is the reason why The Classic sniper rifle is so bad in TF2 because when porting the weapon they based it of the TFC damage values, meaning that the weapon has lower damage than all the other weapons because it was based of TFC's values not TF2's. So to sumerize the problem with this series is that TFC's values are not converted when comparing with TF2's giving TF2's weapons and advantage

    In TFC you could actually boost your teammates as sniper with friendly fire disabled. Fully charged shots would still deal heavy knockback so it became a strat to aim at friendly medics to let them jump into the enemy base for free without using frag/conc grenades.
    Even before Jarate, sniper could be a support class in more ways than one.

    I guess it is pretty accurate that in the comics sniper called the TFC sniper a sadist instead of a sniper. The guy's rifle does make people explode into gibs.
    Wonder where that gun went though in the comics cause the TFC sniper clearly didn't have the same rifle. Heck it seems like none of the TFC had their weapons. Where were their iconic weapons during the comics.(TFC sniper at least had a sniper rifle albiet not the TFC one)

    You know, the fact that in TFC you have to stop mobing to start charging actually screws them in this matchup if they miss. Or if for some reason TFC Sniper needs multiple shots. I can say personally from experience against lots of good sniper players that if you had to consistently stop like that you'd just be screwed if the interaction lasted more than that one shot, which combined with the longer ttk really puts on a lot of disadvantages

      @@mrcrowthebird9836 you can't really account for imperfect aim, because then it's a game of chance essentially. Also, TFC sniper having to stop to be able to shoot is a major downside that gives the win handily to TF2 sniper. Stopping means death against a good sniper (which, as I said previously, we can't really account for inaccuracy and as such have to assume the first shot hits). Even if both missed the first shot, TF2 sniper can get another shot in right after TFC sniper is missing his first. There is no world where TFC sniper vs. TF2 sniper ends up in TFC sniper's win, between two equally skilled players, excepting luck. And luck isn't useful in hypotheticals.

It seems to suggest that game developers have a very carefully-chosen rate of damage for a sniper class that they always balance around, even decades of development and franchises apart.

Even if you didn't allow the tfc medic to cause sickness then the fact that the tfc medic is effectively is tf2 scout but better would immediately end with a very dead tf2 medic and a very much alive tfc medic. Also Über is useless in a 1v1 because the tf2 medic can only use it when healing someone. tfc medic is so powerful that on most servers tfc medic is BANNED for being to strong and unbalanced. tl:dr tfc medic wins in almost every way

    I think you missed an important factor for the sniper vs sniper battle.
    As you mentioned, the head hitbox in TFC is very awkward. The hitbox in TF2 on the other hand is far more forgiving. In addition, scoping just helps you get more consistent leads on the head.
    Also the difference in shot-time might seem minor but if we were to assume both players to be good at the class, that speed difference would be quite significant.
    The last thing one could try to compare is the difference in tick rate and hit registration but I'm way too lazy to look it up and do the maths. I just know that TF2 is very responsive when it comes to hit registration.

  • @bastian_5975
    @bastian_5975 Рік тому +1

    I think there is one thing being overlooked: not having to scope is actually really powerful. If they see eachother at the same time when neither are charged/scoped, tf2 sniper wins by a hair, but tfc sniper has a massive advantage in that he can see everywhere while being charged for a shot. Just looking at the very basic 2fort sniper battle, there are 4 places that someone will usually peak from (both sides of the battlements and then the lower area's entrances), and then 2 more from sewers, and then once in a blue moon you'll see someone coming at you from spawn. The tf2 sniper has to check all 7 of those areas individually while scoped, or can check them all at once while unscoped, but then won't be able to fire for that short period of time: tfc sniper can just peak out of one of those areas while charged, instantly spot the other sniper, and fire almost immediately.

    simply, it does now "waste" primary ammo. I very much know, that it could be very much a problem and likely reason why sniper has nailgun which does not waste ammo. in tf2, scout has this when using shortstop and pistol. And having shared ammo pool for multiple weapons is extremely annoying. Which would be even more with sniper, who cannot just go to body of last victim and pick up opponent's ammo, since sniper is ... at close range.

    You know, the automatic rifle WILL be effective against the TF2 sniper, because even if you shoot the sniper with the TF2's SMG he will have SO many little flicks and his screen will shake so much that he won't be able to shoot accurately. And now add to this a perfect accuracy and no damage fall-of present of the automatic rifle in TFC, and you will have ideal sniper trolling weapon that will prevent them from hitting anything and will kill them on about 1,5 seconds, considering the time you showed us with 100 hp target.
    So i say that there is not even a slightest turn to a TF2 side, it is a perfect balance and tie between them, because in TFC automatic rifle actually was decent tool for lowering bhop speed of scout or medic. So i think they are REALLY equal in power in 1v1, TF2 just relies more on primary while TFC make better use of it's utility weapons.
