[Redead-ITA]

What is your opinion about The update That did a lot Of Balances (and killed the quickFix) added Taunts and New menu + Compitive and casual (RIP PUB)
And Also Optionaly What did you vote For Pyro or Heavy

[simpletonnn]

i couldnt care less about the fixes really, besides the fact that Quick-Fix is now useless
the only thing i REALLY care about is the terribly made competetive mode
i have to wait what feels like FOUR HOURS to get into a game that lasts about four minutes because i suck at actual tf2 >:/

(oh and i voted for team pyro)

No it isn't; It still heals fast, and it's still the only medigun that lets you rocketjump with your target.
That being said it's definitely more useful in conjunction with another Medic using a standard medigun/kritzkrieg than it is alone (e.g. uber/kritz medic pockets and pushes through while quick medic keeps the team alive to follow through with the push), but then again it was always like that, just not so much.
It's still good, just not really really good.

My only real problems with the update are:
Righteous Bison nerf (& calling it a "bug fix" when even the loading screen tips mentioned it). Who the hell was complaining about the Bison? Literally nobody I ever encountered has said it was OP or broken, but here they go absolutely gutting it.
Quickie-Launcher buff. WHY!? It was already a horrendous crime against humanity and they not only improved its strengths but removed its biggest downside. At least when they gave the Phlog an Ubercharge during its Mmph they also removed the full healing, but this was just a straight upgrade.
Removal of Quickplay. Casual is cool, and we still have the server browser, but I liked being able to just jump into a random game, and more importantly, be able to jump into a friend's game already in progress.

Also I was a bit sad about the Shortstop's stat changes (not the shove altfire, that's hilarious and pointless and mean and it's perfect for the Scout because he's an asshole) but it's really not a big deal.
Also they apparently nerfed the Buffalo Steak Sandvich (it was supposed to give you 25% damage vulnerability but due to "a bug" it was only 10%) but it was already never seriously used by anyone ever ever ever (except in Medieval I guess but if they don't balance the game around Medieval mode)

My personal thoughts on the update is that valve was trying to become more like overwatch to keep the current competitive community. I don't mind the matchmaking system, infact it has been alot of fun to play with players of a pretty similar skill level. What i do mind is the removal of quickplay, which was the fastest way to get into a match(under 4 minutes to get into a low latency valve server), was stupid. Valve Screwed the pooch, and it might be too much to allow the TF2 community to bounce back. So what if overwatch took over the current TF2 competitive community, its not like there are any shortage of lime green hales own tryhard scouts to fill an entire league. Its sad since i have put over 800 hours in, and have found tf2 to be one of my favorite games of all time. If this is the end of tf2, i personally hope the community does not go quietly into that good night. but should rave and rant at valve at the close of day.
Also i heard from the rumor mill that quickplay might be coming back "soonish"
