Breaking down your hottest Pyro takes [TF2]
Everyone's got an opinion, and some are more controversial than others. Let's capitalize on that! I collected a ton of hot takes about the class people have no idea how to play, and I figured discussing them would be interesting since opinions on Pyro seem to be all over the place. (And yes, this includes my own.) Let me know if you want to see something like this again in the future!

Abusing TF2's most BROKEN map
Просмотров 44 тыс.Месяц назад
I've said for years that Uber Upgrades would be a super fun alternative gamemode in casual TF2. And this year we got our wish! Well, almost anyway, since the balance is still a bit iffy. I'm sure it'll be fixed, but in the mean time, let's abuse the crap out of Freaky Fair's broken upgrades! Normally the concept of Vaccinator stacking makes me shrivel up and die inside, but this time around it ...
What if we deleted half of TF2's weapons?
Просмотров 111 тыс.2 месяца назад
Picture this thought experiment: Valve announces that half of the unlockable weapons in TF2 would be deleted - however, the community would be the ones to decide which weapons got to stay and which ones had to go. In this case, which weapons would you choose? Well, that's the discussion that @fishstickonastick-gaming and I wanted to have, and as it turns out, the decisions were a lot harder to ...
What is TF2's Cheesiest Weapon?

You ever die to a TF2 weapon you know is statistically balanced but still think it's unfair? Call now, we can help. This is a tier list ranking every weapon in TF2 based on how "cheesy" it is (or in other words, how unfun/unfair it feels to play against). This is NOT necessarily a discussion of balance - while a weapon being unbalanced could make it feel more cheesy, that is completely secondar...
The most absurd TF2 weapon rebalance video
Просмотров 983 тыс.5 месяцев назад
A test of a style of video I want to try! This is a video from creator Grouch that's been floating around the TF2 sphere recently and become rather infamous for the absurd rebalance ideas. Originally I wanted to dissect them with fellow weapon rebalance enthusiast FishStickOnAStick as a more serious analysis of what makes rebalances work and not. However, upon having more friends join the discu...

    I can concede on everything... except 1. giving medic less options, and 2. Keeping the force-a-nature and REMOVING THE SODA POPPER? They both give mobility options for scout, but the soda popper gives so much more and more interestingly and with less crowd control which is annoying to fight against (especially if you get two-tapped out of nowhere) vs. being peppered with reasonably-placed shots.

    @alessandrobahia787 23 часа назад

    1:07:04 I disagree, and my reasoning is Spy, Spy just like Pyro, used to have the same speed, Spy eventually got his speed buffer to 107% which allowed him to catch up to other classes with average speed (Engineer, Sniper and Pyro), and also run away better from those same classes if needed, and by buffing Puro’s movement speed at it’s base, would tilt the Pyro vs Spy matchup in a even more favorable position for the Pyro than it already is. SPY should be at least rewarded for being able to escape with his slightly superior speed.

    lowkey the take about the voicelines is fair specifically for the spy example, since most classes have unique voicelines for every potential disguised class where pyro just has one line

  • @derbear3675
    @derbear3675 День назад

    The take about the pyro voice commands is really a semantics issue. Yes, because the pyro's voice commands will be exactly the same every time and carry the same meaning with each pattern, these patterns can therefore be learned, and so as Great Blue said, there's no inherent issue with the pyro's commands. However, if the question is of the ease at which that information is transmitted, then an issue arises. Essentially, although the things the pyro says do transmit the information they're intended to, the voice lines are so muffled that decoding that meaning during play is basically like learning another language, where meaning is transmitted of the PATTERNS of sounds rather than by the actual semantic meaning of the existing language used. In the absence of any context or experience, you would have no idea what the pyro's "spy!" callout is saying, whereas the scout's callouts are perfectly clear to anyone who understands the language being spoken. In this regard, the pyro's voice lines fail completely at their intended duty of quickly transmitting information. Even taking into account the fact that important voice commands are noted in the text chat, information like the target of a "spy!" callout is not, which is a piece of information that the pyro's voice commands totally fails to communicate effectively outside of, again, learning the patterns, whereas with any other class, this important distinction is easily conveyed with the unique, per-class-targeted voice lines clearly communicating what specific class is the spy. Finally, there's the acoustics question, which basically boils down to the fact that our brains are trained to easily recognize languages we know being spoken, disregard unknown languages, and ESPECIALLY disregard low-level background noise. This is common in humans to the point that it is considered a sensory processing disorder if some of these criteria are not met. The pyro's muffled and consistently unintelligible speech, qualities which remain true regardless of the voice language selected, mean that our brains actively fight against us recognizing the pyro's utterances as "speech", instead attempting to file them into the categories of "other" or "background", an issue which again requires mental training to circumvent. However, these arguments both ignore and are defeated by one simple thing: artistic intent. The pyro's muffled speech is semantically suboptimal, but is A) funny and B) adds to the character. In this regard, the pyro's speech, although clearly aggravating to some, succeeds completely at both developing the pyro as a character and aiding in the humorous tone of the game as a whole. At the end of the day, Team Fortress 2 is, like any other game, an artistic work: As such, at least in my eyes, artistic decisions take priority over gameplay-optimal decisions. In this regard, the pyro's speech is just fine, and shouldn't be changed at all. It really depends on what you value more in TF2: Clarity, or comedy. Merry Christmas!

    Biggest problem with the vaccinator is that medics who are new/bad don’t use it because it does take skill, (with both reaction time, awareness and positioning). so the only players you usually encounter using it, are pros who decimate you
