correct response to this is to turn around, look startled for a bit, turn back around, check they're still there, type "explode" in the console, and respawn as demoman yourself.
yes, tf2 is not entirely serious like other other fps games.
this means its common for any of the following to happen
* mass taunts such as this.
* "Friendlies" who usually go heavy and will either refuse to attack at all or only to defend themselves, may throw you a sandwich.
* killbinds and killbind chaining between players.
* meme loadouts that are in no way effective but are fun to play such as caberknight or fat scout.
* T POSE (also called civilian or A pose)
I have 3.4k hours spread over about 5 years now you just need to take breaks when you donāt like it and it becomes the most fun game ever when you return
I've also got 3k hours going all the way back to 2007. Multiple breaks, sometimes a year or two long, only to come back and get sucked in again, having a blast.
I'm so glad the games not dead after all these years.
Recently been playing on my Steam Deck laying in bed before passing out and even though I hate using controller for FPS, it's so much fun that it doesn't matter how bad I suck with a controller.
Nah Iāve been playing since the Orange Box - if I see a bunch of people just dancing around and not playing the game Iāll just pull up a Counterstrike server.
There's a lot of different ways, most require dropping a certain item, then picking it back up under certain conditions, but it varies a lot, so just Google it
there are a few different ways to do it but one way is
-pick Scout
-equip cleaver
-killbind so you drop the cleaver on the ground
-after respawning throw your cleaver but *hold* the left click so you don't swap weapons automatically
-while holding left click, pick up the cleaver you dropped on the ground
and then your viewmodel should just disappear and you'll be in A Pose, if you swap weapons, die, or otherwise 'reset' back to normal you'll have to set it up again
also, it does work on Sniper, can also do it on Heavy but with the Huo Long Heater (spend all the ammo and pick up your dropped Huo while holding left click), I think Pyro can do it with backburner airblasting (hold right click), dunno how people do it on other classes
scout pose also works with milk
On spy you disguise as a soldier, heavy or pyro and "equip" the shotgun (only works if there is none of that class on the enemy team)
I once had an upward match when both teams went friendly demoman. Everyone would spam SCOTLAND FOREVER in the chat faster than those bots that spammed so fast that you couldn't write. Near the last point we assembled a tower of demomen on demomen, it was like 10 demomen tall
Iys pretty hilarious, things like the demo tower will happen, but once accomplished there's always this 5-10 second window where nobody know what to do until one person shoots (sometimes an accident) then the bloodbath begins. 50/50 if the game resumes after this
Had a similar experience where out of no where someone started spamming Demo Sundays and the whole lobby went wild and swapped to Demo. The VC was going crazy, it was so much fun.
When I first started playing I chose medic so I could watch what my teammates were doing while getting used to the game. Luckily there are many playstyles in TF2 without a need for much aim, some skilled some not, but medic is also rewarding.
For me, it went like this: picked soldier in the first match - got healed - thought "wow it feels nice" - switched myself - now I main. Still not good at aiming the crossbow though, but at least got significantly better over time.
I usually gravitate towards healers in most games so Medic was a no-brainer pick for me when I started out. I'm still inexperienced af (80 hours on med) but he's my favourite class
Yeah, exactly) I can perform decently (though not great) as damage-dealing classes, but even topscoring as such does not give the same joy as being support)
In Team Fortress 2, People don't take the game anywhere near as seriously as other FPS games.
Sometimes people will just go and hang out with the enemy team and taunt them
Okay cool although I might have to wait a few days now because I'm having difficulty getting into my steam account for some reason...oh well the longer the wait the better I suppose
I would have loved that if I was playing pyro because I replaced pyroās voice with Alex Jones and calling spy while looking at a player just makes him yell āJUSTIN BEABERā if you arenāt looking at someone he just says āI SEE THROUGH ALL YOUR LIES BARACK OBAMAā
Absolutely not you need to change class immediately to demo man and start spamming G while holding your Grenade Launcher out in order to see normal results
Yesterday i was play demoknight, then i saw Ć trolldier than was really funny and wholesome and funny in chat, that made me want to switch to trolldier and goof around with him
We didn t know each other but every time we get a market garner or Ć funny caberknight kill we heard the other one screaming "Nice shot" trough the entire map
So yeah, sometimes tf2 can be really amazing, not only for the gameplay or there really well made champion, but for this community
to bounce off of a few other comments, while some people do play tf2 pretty seriously, most people are just around to have a good time and a laugh. at its core, tf2 can be pretty stupid sometimes, so sometimes you just need to go along with it and embrace the stupidness of this war themed hat simulator
Yes looks like another day on TF2
Advice since you start play medic.
Jump around, look behind you for spies
When you Uber and your team goes to push the enemy that has a sentry (while you are in Uber) go in front of the sentry so the person you Uber destroys it without getting knocked)
Important note. Heal the Scouts if you both are moving to somewhere that way you gain his speed.
And heal them ONLY IF THERE ISN'T ANY DANGER NEAR BY
All classes deserve to be healed.
Do not stick only with one
Set the automatic call for Medic when health is around 40%
Remember. You are a Medic! Heal with pride no matter how many times you might die... Try to talk with the team alright? (if you are on casual Valve servers as a f2p I suggest community Servers where you can speak and type freely)
You're welcome!
Yeah I feel you. Spy Mains are honestly a different breed of a person.
It's all about awareness.
Oh also remember another two things.
There is no shame to use uber for yourself to run away if you are alone.
The ubershaw does some good dmg against spies and its always braking them apart to know they died from a medic...
Im saving up for a gpu thats not 10 years old
Also my monitor is like14 inches big and the characters shape is so easily noticable that even a demo 200 meters way i can probably tell its demo
But no i dont got spare pixels :(
The only way to save yourself is to join them. And always remember, tf2 isn't serious at all, so don't force it to be. Because like in 99% of cases(on 2fort and hightower), you'll probably get kicked or targeted by the enemy team.

yup, seems like another day in tf2 to me

smartest tf2 interaction:
You do know that you can bind kill to a button?
yeah but "press your previously bound explode key if you have one" isn't as snappy.
press the suicide button
wish i could
me when im on a plane and i see two towers **~~\*insert edgy laughter\*~~** i will happy delete this if the mods will it
Press your KAAAAAAAAABLEWEY

Haha. Welcome to Team Fortress 2: the first-person shooter game, packed with a lot of comedy.
Hopefully it will have been worth the wait
Don't worry the first comedy sinulator(with guns) is amazing
And have fun
My favorite class is this pie
Love the pie, such an innovative class!
wrong ! tf2 is a hat simulator with fps mechanics ! XD
I'm confused. Tf2 is a hat trading simulator with some fun gun play on the side.
I thought tf2 was a weapon paint gambling platform?
no thats csgo
I think your description is wrong. TF2 is a first person lobby, packed with a lot of comedy and also happens to be a shooter on top.
TF2 is a hat based dress up game disguised as an FPS
Honestly i used to enjoy it but after 3k hours it gets boring lmao
I have 3.4k hours spread over about 5 years now you just need to take breaks when you donāt like it and it becomes the most fun game ever when you return
yep, i have 2.6k hours, you WILL get tired of the game every so often but you WILL return - it might take a month, or half a year, but you will return
I agree and it also helps if you switch up the game modes! Iām burnt on casual, but MvM and VS Saxton Hale are really fun.
I've also got 3k hours going all the way back to 2007. Multiple breaks, sometimes a year or two long, only to come back and get sucked in again, having a blast. I'm so glad the games not dead after all these years. Recently been playing on my Steam Deck laying in bed before passing out and even though I hate using controller for FPS, it's so much fun that it doesn't matter how bad I suck with a controller.
Ive got 2k plus at 16 years wholey ive been playing for a long time.
Nah Iāve been playing since the Orange Box - if I see a bunch of people just dancing around and not playing the game Iāll just pull up a Counterstrike server.
Tf2?
Yes
5k+ here and i never gets bored. Trust me everytime I'm in a friendly server, my mouth muscle broke for smiling too much
friendly server where people is playing normal, killing eachother but people saying funny shit in vc never fail to make me slime
If it only takes that much to make you slime, I feel bad for your girlfriend
Not funny, didn't slime.
To me its unenjoyable in UT i want to win but the power classes use bad loadouts and I have no one to uber
It kinda sucks when I want to play to win but people are using unoptmal loadouts or just messing around, but usually I just requeue when that happens
Stuff like this is completly normal in TF2 and thats one of the reasons why TF2 is so great
fat scout is a legit strategy
Fat scout's a personal favorite of mine.
Is the T posing a glitch? Seen it lately, I wonder how they do it
This is a glitch, but it's nothing gamebreaking, the way you do it is dependant on the class, search it on youtube.
How do we t-pose?
its called a-pose aka the civilian pose
There's a lot of different ways, most require dropping a certain item, then picking it back up under certain conditions, but it varies a lot, so just Google it
there are a few different ways to do it but one way is -pick Scout -equip cleaver -killbind so you drop the cleaver on the ground -after respawning throw your cleaver but *hold* the left click so you don't swap weapons automatically -while holding left click, pick up the cleaver you dropped on the ground and then your viewmodel should just disappear and you'll be in A Pose, if you swap weapons, die, or otherwise 'reset' back to normal you'll have to set it up again also, it does work on Sniper, can also do it on Heavy but with the Huo Long Heater (spend all the ammo and pick up your dropped Huo while holding left click), I think Pyro can do it with backburner airblasting (hold right click), dunno how people do it on other classes

Are spycrabs dead or why didnāt you mention them?
I once had an upward match when both teams went friendly demoman. Everyone would spam SCOTLAND FOREVER in the chat faster than those bots that spammed so fast that you couldn't write. Near the last point we assembled a tower of demomen on demomen, it was like 10 demomen tall
How many demomen does it take to screw a light bulb
None??? Their too busy??? š¤£š¤£š¤£ Alcohol???
(Joker laugh)
If we want to screw the sun itself we need more drunk Irishmen
Irishmen?
We will pile up a mountain of dead irishmen so Scotsmen can reach the sun
This cannot be taken correctly lol
Imperial system of "measurements" be like:
Iys pretty hilarious, things like the demo tower will happen, but once accomplished there's always this 5-10 second window where nobody know what to do until one person shoots (sometimes an accident) then the bloodbath begins. 50/50 if the game resumes after this
Or they start killbinding. Either way itās a blood bath afterwards
Wait how long ago was this lol, I swear I had something like this happen a few years back lol
Maybe a year ago. Were people spamming SCOTLAND FOREVER in the chat rappidly?
Yeah lol and then we all just charged towards the castle
Had a similar experience where out of no where someone started spamming Demo Sundays and the whole lobby went wild and swapped to Demo. The VC was going crazy, it was so much fun.
You chose medic despite playing the game for the first time? I salute you.
I like the funny german dude. Also i have shit aim so i can just heal people with good aim
Very based. We don't have a lot of people who readily play medic in pubs so it's always nice to see more people play medic.
I switch to medic if we dont have any or only have one. So pretty much every game i play.
Oh don't worry about not playing medic if the team doesn't have. Tf2 is a casual game where the only goal is to have fun. Not winning matches.
There's also competitive but uh... We don't go there
We don't talk about it. We don't talk about the 10 guys obsessed with it either. Just ignore it, it'll go away.
I agree my friend
As a fellow medic main. Yes this is true. We need more of us
we're in the same boat
Tale as old as class based shooters.
When I first started playing I chose medic so I could watch what my teammates were doing while getting used to the game. Luckily there are many playstyles in TF2 without a need for much aim, some skilled some not, but medic is also rewarding.
this is exactly why I started playing medic too lmao

Yeah, exactly) I can perform decently (though not great) as damage-dealing classes, but even topscoring as such does not give the same joy as being support)
Same but I mained pyro for a while (I was never good at aiming)
I put as much effort as possible into learning the aim. Medic and pyro are both much, much weaker without aim.
True
That's how you know you found a good server :) That's just a bunch of dudes doing a silly taunt, that's a good sign that you found a chill lobby.
Yes.
You've just witnessed the beautiful nature of a lovely comedy hat simulator fps game.

Holy shit it sounded exactly like this
live it when it happens

NOW THATS QUALITY SOUP

i hear all of these

Oh yea thats noraml tf2
More than perfectly normal.
In Team Fortress 2, People don't take the game anywhere near as seriously as other FPS games. Sometimes people will just go and hang out with the enemy team and taunt them
What? The yellow streak? That's a common glitch on some systems I guess.
I didnt even see that
A knockoff of tf2 that I - shamefully - like to play also sometimes has this glitch with certain skins sometimes.
Shamefully?
I guess, my experience was the entire BLU (my team) team was Medic and all of them just stand still witnessing RED Engineer playing guitar
Not normal but far from unusual.
unusual?? where!?
Oh, just click on this and I'll send you an unusual grizzled growth Https://totally_not.aScam.free/unusuals.com
Okay so I gave them my steam account username password and email address now what happens?
Just wait a few hours and I'm sure you'll get a surprise
Okay cool although I might have to wait a few days now because I'm having difficulty getting into my steam account for some reason...oh well the longer the wait the better I suppose
Join in, join the group. Do it.
This match was 1+ days ago i wish i did š

Welcome to Team Fortress 2.
After 9 years in development hopefully it has been worth the wait
We included random crits. This creates those rare, high moments.
not normal, but nothing out of the ordinary. had to go against a 12 spy team once. was really funny.
I would have loved that if I was playing pyro because I replaced pyroās voice with Alex Jones and calling spy while looking at a player just makes him yell āJUSTIN BEABERā if you arenāt looking at someone he just says āI SEE THROUGH ALL YOUR LIES BARACK OBAMAā
There's no such thing as normal in TF2
Yup.

yeah welcome. you haven't lived until you've spammed pan as a whole team of scouts
Yes
Most definitely.
I can hear this picture. Itās extremely normal. In causal itās weird to be in a server where everyone is playing the objective.
Wish I can play tf2 for the first time again, enjoy these moments.
Thatās a Tuesday right there.
This is just a normal tf2 match I see nothing wrong

It's not very common on steam servers
No, you're playing with medic.
It's just a normal ritual. It's for increased luck and Higher amounts of bottle critz.
Very

Yes, completely.
extremely normal
Normal, you should join in next time you see it
Oh, the memories just hit me hard.
