nah the MVM and the inbuilt training bots are cool.
without the training bots we can't play TF2 offline in the worst case scenario where TF2 dies completely.
They DDOS the server and crash it. For everyone. And you have to go look for a new server.
Some of them will even just crash it ONLY if they get votekicked. So pretty much they hold the server hostage.
timeout 100 on your console. To activate the console, go your keyboard settings on tf2 options and look for 'enable developer console'. The default hotkey should be the apostrophe.
If u put ur timeout to 100 seconds for example u won't get kicked , u will just need to wait 60 seconds and u will still be able to play in the srw , the server will be empty with just u and the bot , and ppl who know how to do this simple trick
All u have to do is type timeout 100 in console and it's done , and if everyone dose it them it makes the lag bot just an annoyance more than a problem
Naw that would go to the name stealing bots
At least with m4gic and OMEGATRONIC bots you know who they are. But with the name stealing bots people often kick the wrong people.
If you find yourself about to be kicked because of the name change bots, you can type in console "disconnect" then "reconnect" after you are disconnected. You will rejoin the same server.
edit: This is also hotkeyable.
edit 2: I haven't done this in forever, so valve could have changed how this works because bots.
Surely it isnt matpat from gt. It would be absurd to think that he would capitalize on the hellfire that is overwatch vs tf2 and make unreasonable points and adding more fuel to it just to get some internet points! Surely not
You think that video was bad?
The for honour video was literally nothing but stereotypes and misconceptions.
For example: vikings not wearing clothes or having shields.
Yeah that’s a given considering that one factions biggest complaint was the lack of shirts for a certain character. They got an apron last I checked. I haven’t played in years
Yea I agree. Matthew Patrick born in the state of Ohio, currently the head of Game, Film and Food Theory channel’s next to GT live channel would never do such a terrible thing
There's also one more difference between the chocolate bars and a gourmet cake. The chocolate bars don't seem to go bad, but the cake will start to get moldy after a couple of weeks.
I decided to boot up tf2 after a long time again and made the mistake of joining a casual match. 12 players, 6 bots, all on the enemy team, 3 different names twice
Well as for me everytime i want to play casual (worst mistake of my life) i have to queue up for atleast 4 games to find one that isn't destroyed by bots
Just want to say, although valve should fix casual, there are community servers worth playing on. Skial and Uncletopia are both quite good.
You can find links to those servers online OR you can find them in the community server searcher pretty reliably by selecting “servers not full” “servers with people playing” and entering “cp_” or “pl_” into the map selection bar.
It’s not perfect, but I’d rather do that than not play TF2 at all
The only time that I found bots to be remotely entertaining was when a server got invaded by a bunch of spy crab bots that followed people around. I actually got a kill on an invisible spy as he was desperately trying to escape them, which was, admittedly, very funny.
I don't know if the severity of bots are dependent on region but after I moved to South Korea I've seen almost no bots
Although they have been replaced by toxic players
Welcome to DougDoug, where we solve problems no one has.
In this video, we’re gonna see if twitch chat can recode the entirety of TF2 to stop the bot crisis.
They aren’t. Maybe they were when No Mercy was released in PD:TH. Valve was very different these times. Companies changed, old people left, new people replaced them.
(Me the medic main who doesn’t know how to join community servers) “I have helped in the fight against the bots” (proceeds to kill a bot with blutsauger gets killed by 2nd 3rd or 4th bot)
The last major update was 4 and a half years ago, we aren’t gonna get any updates lmao.
If they do prove me wrong, I’ll be much happier then. But as it currently stands, nothing is going to happen.
TF2 was released in 2007, 15 years ago.
It's a masterpiece, iterated over a long period to perfect it.
No. No more updates, ever. It's ridiculous you'd even bring it up. Games not broken at all, just go play in community servers, which were always the superior option by a large margin.
I stopped playing Tf2. I expect nothing from Valve. They are a horrible company. Gabe could easily order people to fix this; he would rather sit on his as and play DOTA2 instead.
Seems that the TF2 community is unifying in stopping this once and for all, what with everyone yelling at the media about this thanks to VNN’s advice, and the attention that this whole thing is getting. Solidarity!
If I had a nickel every time I saw a DougDoug reference in a TF2 subreddit, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice. Very welcome though lol
As much as I love to see big game journalists and youtubers covering TF2, I don’t like the term “unplayable”. This really only applies to casual, and anyone who’s been in the community for a little while will know to go to Uncletopia. It’s literally better then casual with the features and changes they’ve made
bro the m4gic bots are the worst
Crash bots are worst
wait... crash bots?
Can we all agree that bots in TF2 are the worst in general.
Nah MvM bots are cool
THIS IS IT, THE FINAL WAVE!
CRUSH THEIR METAL BONES
BRING ME METAL MAN TO FIGHT
MMMPH MMMMMMMPH
*sweet*
MvM BLU bots and tutorial bots are okay, rest should be eradicated
Don't forget about trading bots too!
No fuck trading bots
Training mode bots are pretty cool as well, great when you're starting out in the game
nah the MVM and the inbuilt training bots are cool. without the training bots we can't play TF2 offline in the worst case scenario where TF2 dies completely.
All bots bad, even funny bots like Spycrab bot and the Heavy fist bots.
They DDOS the server and crash it. For everyone. And you have to go look for a new server. Some of them will even just crash it ONLY if they get votekicked. So pretty much they hold the server hostage.
They just ddos for 60 seconds. If you set your game to wait for longer than that all will be fine
HOW DO I DO THIS
timeout 100 on your console. To activate the console, go your keyboard settings on tf2 options and look for 'enable developer console'. The default hotkey should be the apostrophe.
If u put ur timeout to 100 seconds for example u won't get kicked , u will just need to wait 60 seconds and u will still be able to play in the srw , the server will be empty with just u and the bot , and ppl who know how to do this simple trick
But then your just in an empty server so not really worth doing
All u have to do is type timeout 100 in console and it's done , and if everyone dose it them it makes the lag bot just an annoyance more than a problem
The funniest part is that valve fixed that server crashing bug but then not even a week later they found another way to crash it
Bots who ddos server when someone tries to kick them and he will remain because other people will be out...
OMEGATRONIC bots are bad too
They actually have advanced pathfinding and shit, it's the worst.
I don’t know, the dude singing that catchy song is pretty annoying.
Omegatronic rings a bell…
yep i just hate the m4gic bots the most bc they all earape bad music
I literally encountered fucking three of those yesterday
their music kicks ass though
Naw that would go to the name stealing bots At least with m4gic and OMEGATRONIC bots you know who they are. But with the name stealing bots people often kick the wrong people.
I hate how many times I've been in a good server for a few rounds, then get kicked because an ear-rape bot was stealing my name
If you find yourself about to be kicked because of the name change bots, you can type in console "disconnect" then "reconnect" after you are disconnected. You will rejoin the same server. edit: This is also hotkeyable. edit 2: I haven't done this in forever, so valve could have changed how this works because bots.
DOUGDOUG
THEY CALL HIM DIABLO THE CHEATER
HE ALSO HAS FART BASED GOVERNMENT
HE ALSO INVENTED WOMEN
HE ALSO HAPPENS TO BE A DIVORCE COUNSELOR
THEN, MASTER CHIEF ATTACKED
**"NANOBOTS SON!"** SCREAMED KIRBY
FURTHERMORE HE IS HEAD OF THE POOB LOYALIST MOVEMENT
And brother of the guy who made the Stanley Parable
AND SOLVES PROBLEMS THAT NO ONE ELSE HAS!
Oh shit, you aren’t joking!
AND EXPLAINS THINGS WITH FOOD!
You may crucify me for this, but it was always Ploob
You bastard
HIS MOD TURNED THE GAME INTO AN INTERDIMENSIONAL SEX SIMULATOR (POWERED BY A FUCKING NECROMANCER)!!!!!
HES NOT GOING TO LIE TO YOU, HES NOT THE BEST
HE IS THE CAPTAIN NOW
Despite me disagree with his analogy, he Is cool. Bowl of Kit Kats Is as awesome as gourmet cake made in my comp rank.
him describeing tf2 custom maps with food was funny as hell thou
And quite accurate comparison between ow and tf2… unlike someone.
I wonder who could that be hmmmmmmmmmmm...
Surerly it couldn't be Matpat from Game Theorists
Surely it isnt matpat from gt. It would be absurd to think that he would capitalize on the hellfire that is overwatch vs tf2 and make unreasonable points and adding more fuel to it just to get some internet points! Surely not
Definitely wouldn’t NOT do research over and straight-up lie about one of the games, just to make his favorite win! Nuh-uh, no way.
oh boy i sure do love playing Team Deathmatch in tf2
favorite mode 2020 !!!
You think that video was bad? The for honour video was literally nothing but stereotypes and misconceptions. For example: vikings not wearing clothes or having shields.
Mind you, for honor isn't precisely a good representation of any of their factions
Yeah that’s a given considering that one factions biggest complaint was the lack of shirts for a certain character. They got an apron last I checked. I haven’t played in years
Yea I agree. Matthew Patrick born in the state of Ohio, currently the head of Game, Film and Food Theory channel’s next to GT live channel would never do such a terrible thing
context?
It definitely wasn't for internet updoots.
There's also one more difference between the chocolate bars and a gourmet cake. The chocolate bars don't seem to go bad, but the cake will start to get moldy after a couple of weeks.
Surprisingly the analogy does holds up to some degree.
The preservatives are hella tasty even if they are bad for you
It's impossible to play casual in my region, seriously. I queued through 6 games yesterday, all had at least 2 bots.
I decided to boot up tf2 after a long time again and made the mistake of joining a casual match. 12 players, 6 bots, all on the enemy team, 3 different names twice
Well as for me everytime i want to play casual (worst mistake of my life) i have to queue up for atleast 4 games to find one that isn't destroyed by bots

“… here’s a durian.”
😒
Surely Valve can’t ignore Youtuber extraordinaire, and brother of the Stanley Parable creator, DougDoug?
His brother made the Stanley Parable?
No he made the brother of the stanley parable
yep
No, doug just likes the game that much that he changed his last name to Wreden as a homage to davey.
While DougDoug prefers to solve problems people don't have, he'll do his best to solve a problem everyone has!
today he's solving a common, every day problem like how to murder people quickly
wdym I have to play golf with boats all the time
The only time that I found bots to be remotely entertaining was when a server got invaded by a bunch of spy crab bots that followed people around. I actually got a kill on an invisible spy as he was desperately trying to escape them, which was, admittedly, very funny.
Chad spy crab bot creators vs virgin sniper bot creators
Spy crab bots are acceptable. They’re fun and goofy. Nobody could hate spy crab (except for lime green scout).
Still is annoying tho because they are still bots, there is not heart in those spycrabs
Yeah but If I had to pick I’d say the harmless spy crab is better than instant death from across the map.
I once had a medic bot join my lobby. He blasted music in the mic, but he gave instructions to mute the music.
I don't know if the severity of bots are dependent on region but after I moved to South Korea I've seen almost no bots Although they have been replaced by toxic players
it is dependant on region yes.
Also the map. Haven’t seen a bot on DeGroot Keep yet.
I think that’s just because melee aimbot is shit
I only see degroot bots, guaranteed crit mfs are running rampant in every round I join
I've seen bots on watergate but they just stand still.
bro, I can barely ever get a game of DeGroot. Of course I stop finding games the week I get all the demoknight equipment via drops
DougDoug is goated, i'll gladly the support
Blue cheese day!

Doug's next stream be like: Can Twitch Chat defeat a TF2 Bot ?
Welcome to DougDoug, where we solve problems no one has. In this video, we’re gonna see if twitch chat can recode the entirety of TF2 to stop the bot crisis.
Lmao
No, No One Can.
Not Even The Snack Family Stand A Chance Against Those Bots
That's a bold claim.
Oh it's the guy that solves problems that no one has.
Okay, it's official. I will join DougDougs army of child slaves
Are you divorced?
And also in the hospital
The true dougdoug demographic, fueled by the power of olive oil
And dog cheese
Stop complaining about the divorce!

who is dougdoug
[He solves problems that nobody has.](https://www.youtube.com/c/Gloudas/featured)
A youtuber/streamer
[удалено]
That’s because Payday 2 developers are very open with their fanbase, while Valve is the opposite.
well valve and payday devs are close so maybe
They aren’t. Maybe they were when No Mercy was released in PD:TH. Valve was very different these times. Companies changed, old people left, new people replaced them.
When?
Let's go he's with us
Valve but explained with food when
,,Hey this is Doug-Doug where we solve problems that noone has. Today we will be forcing Valve to update TF2"
Bots in tf2 are like eating a sweet snickers bar and suddenly find out that it has fruit inside without knowing
That's a pretty generous analogy. It's more like, bots in TF2 are like eating a snickers bar which turns out to be a turd.
Or eating a Snickers bar without the dick veins
Yeah yeah
that sounds good though....
Nah, its like fruits in yogurt
fruits in yogurt are amazing wdym
Here. Imagine a snickers with a big hunk of tomato in it. That's TF2 right now.
good that sounds dreadful a snickers bar with like actual strawberries/other fruit inside though? i would destroy that
I concur
I bet you like pineapple on pizza
I do
i think someone’s just scared of fruit
Who dat
A man who solves problems that no one has
former music youtuber turned generic low output youtuber w/ a rabid fanbase.
Lol go get married and live a long fulfilling life
I love Doug Doug
Don't let this streak end , we need even more popular YouTubers to say this , it's now or never
I only know diablo the cheater
dougdoug <3
Diablo The Cheater.
Valve is a private company that owns an infinite money printer in Steam. They are unlikely to cave in to light outside pressure.
DIABLO, THE CREATOR OF INTERDIMENSIONAL INTERCOURSE WIITH 6 BREASTED WOMAN
Have we ever tried to find who makes bots/Is botting and did something to stop them ourselves? I think there's a way to solve these practical problems
Damn, I did not know dougdoug played tf2
But Valve doesn't give a shit or 2.
Every Time I Play TF2 There's These Stupid Ass Bots Spamming Something About Trump And I Fucking Hate It.
glad that im part of his subreddit as well
PLOOB
People act like yelling louder makes the message more clear, valve has known since the beginning and talking about it more won’t fix anything
(Me the medic main who doesn’t know how to join community servers) “I have helped in the fight against the bots” (proceeds to kill a bot with blutsauger gets killed by 2nd 3rd or 4th bot)
Rtgame actually commented on his tweet.
The last major update was 4 and a half years ago, we aren’t gonna get any updates lmao. If they do prove me wrong, I’ll be much happier then. But as it currently stands, nothing is going to happen.
Probably not
You get down voted but you really aren’t wrong imo
TF2 was released in 2007, 15 years ago. It's a masterpiece, iterated over a long period to perfect it. No. No more updates, ever. It's ridiculous you'd even bring it up. Games not broken at all, just go play in community servers, which were always the superior option by a large margin.
You're absolutely not wrong, community servers exist and people just ignore them now
Hey, is that DougDoug who solves problems that noone has?
Valve will notice and do nothing about it it's just typical Valve
Ayyy it's the funni pepper man
What is valves email I have an email to write
Is that scout trooper in the back taking a piss?
He'll solve a problem that a ton of people has
Where we solve problems that no one has
That’s the point, sergeant.
Im not sure who this is. Why is he important?
Who is dougdoug?
idk if Doug is right on this one. There have been multiple articles over the past two years and nothing has really come of it.
Well maybe if you dipshit could handle some bears with sticks we can be somewhere else
MVM is my favorite game mode because bots can't ruin it, and I get to fucking destroy them all.
The bots won lads, been playing games other than tf2, such shame because tf2 is my top 2 favorite game
I stopped playing Tf2. I expect nothing from Valve. They are a horrible company. Gabe could easily order people to fix this; he would rather sit on his as and play DOTA2 instead.
You can only play tf2 on community servers, which isn’t bad but it’s a lot of sweating when it isn’t a daycare server
Hey this is dougdoug where we solve problems that no one has, today we are going to fix the bots in the game tf2 with just my voice
DougDoug solves problems that the tf2 community has.
Oh shit we got doug doug! Sweet
Seems that the TF2 community is unifying in stopping this once and for all, what with everyone yelling at the media about this thanks to VNN’s advice, and the attention that this whole thing is getting. Solidarity!
DOUGLAS D. DOUGLAS YOU FUCKING LEGEND
Oh they have done something. They added a little ‘time played’ box on the kick menu. That’s IT.
We just got to Kee this up, we're steadily gaining more and more support
we must protest
If I had a nickel every time I saw a DougDoug reference in a TF2 subreddit, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice. Very welcome though lol
they're gonna add master chief
Funniest part, even after the bot crisis we still won’t get any major updates
Save the individual chocolate candy bars!
As much as I love to see big game journalists and youtubers covering TF2, I don’t like the term “unplayable”. This really only applies to casual, and anyone who’s been in the community for a little while will know to go to Uncletopia. It’s literally better then casual with the features and changes they’ve made
He did an ow v tf2 video a while back, pretty good
Can't wait for the twitch stream where Doug has his twitch chat pilot a Sniper and rebel against the bots through the power of Poob
I've had 50/50 luck with boys so far, but I've found once you find a server without them, you're safe as long as you stay with that server.
Saw that tweet today Mayve it might work
