WHY?

Why can't you build in spawn?

because people would build teleporters for spies to fuck your f2p team up

What kind of pussy 2fort shit is this

Because then you can build and upgrade without risks whatsoever and it also breaks some of the dynamics between Spy and Engineer.
For instance, some servers do let you build inside the spawn room. If it's a game mode with prep time then BLU team can have any number of level 3 buildings prepped and ready from the getgo, and the Engis can sneak past RED and set up their fully upgraded nests far up ahead in the map. At the same time, RED Spies won't be able to use the teleporters disguised because they can't go inside the enemy base, making their only method of approaching the nests being to directly go at them.

Why are you even asking this shit, go play something else that isn't as dead already.

>drink Bonk and run past everybody at the start of the round
>destroy teleporter entrance
>engy has to die or run all the way back to spawn
Because fuck you that's why.

You use to be able to, what did Valve make another unnecessary change to their dead unfun orangemap_achievement_idle_trading_bronyplugin simulator?

Building a teleporter entrance inside of spawn would make it basically indestructible.

They made you unable to build in spawn like the same year the game came out, it's one of the very first changes.

A few maps they fucked up the placement of the building blocking zone so you could still build on a specific edge or corner of the spawn room, though

you could never build literally inside the spawn

>sentries
Too easy to defend in spawn, if the enemy team is shooting into spawn to take it down the map balance is already broken.
>dispensers
Useless in spawn.
>teleporters
Way too safe in spawn, you can place exits wherever you like and never have to worry about the entrance.

OP here, of course teleporters wouldn't work if you could build them at spawn, this question was meant for sentries and dispensers. Sorry for not specifying

When I played I played on a server that let you build in spawn. It was also 32 players. The standoffs we'd have on that server were some of the greatest moments in my vidya history, and it wasn't until years later I realized that wasn't how TF2 was "meant" to be played.

Literally the last time I played back in 2014 I spent my time making a sentry in the spawn room to kill some spawncamping scout

>defend in spawn
fucking useless.

You're remembering it wrong. Like said, you could never build outside of the spawn room. The one with the first-aid lockers.

save for this, but there are more efficient ways to deal with this

>Sentry in spawn
It covers literally nothing and we need no incentive for some chucklefuck to be even more useless than idiots building on last.
Conversely, it makes them way too protected if he's trying to get a sneaky setup going, such as if he has a teleporter in the backlines that he intends to get a sentry into, at least he's vulnerable while getting the setup going.
>Dispensers in spawn
nigga just touch a supply cabinet

this one gets it

Motherfucker it was only 3 and a half years ago, I remember it clearly down to the scout making fun of me for not just going soldier and killing them.

Why didn't you go soldier?

Because I was masturbating and couldn't use both hands.

If you don't use both hands you're doing it wrong

I used my nose

To fap?

I'm not a Jew, I used it to press M1

It was a custom server then, you could never build in spawn. Dustbowl had a glitch where you could build a teleporter, but that's it.

How'd you see the montor?

Why would I need to see the monitor?

It was the same 24/7 2fort with no plugins I always went to grief. You were wrong, get over yourself.

Why wouldn't you want to see it?

Why would I need to my sentry was handling everything while I was busy with my dick.

it's just that I really enjoy tf2 from an esthetic standpoint to the point that it would help me fap ig I were to look at it while doing so

dumb frog poster

you might even be thinking of one of the maps where you walk out of the "spawn" but still in there. Like steel or that shitty indoor map

>ig
if, my bad

I don't want to see scout while I jerk off

You might be thinking of your dad's gay ass. I have perfect recall and can remember every single page of every book I've ever read.

You don't like scout?

oh yeah?? then what happened in 1492 huh???

That's the year all the Jews got ran out of from Sicily like every other country they've inhabited.

If I did I wouldn't be killing him would I?

I like spy, but I still do the deed, my team needs it

Well then you were on a custom server you idiot. Find me one (1) shred of evidence of someone building in spawn in 2fort on a official valve one

are there only three people in this thread holy fuck

fuck off

>you cant build a teleporter in the tiny ass pixel just before the drop into the long hallway in tf2

I miss those days when people had fun with exploits and glitches. Noways everybody cries like a bitch.

>have a fun week with the new broken thing the last patch created
>people had a giggle at the expense of dumb server owners and thin skin fags
>valve patch it and we move on

I want to go back to the days of bonk crashing servers, killing people when you go to spec, setting teleporters in pixel perfect places and getting under the map.

>start with the best game so the others feel slightly disappointing
>start with a fucking spin-off game

which one would you start with?

The glitch I wish they never patched was when you taunted while walking off a ledge and you could walk around while doing the taunt animation. It made normies freak out and looked hilarious.


For some reason to this day you can still trap your team mates inside of teleproter traps, though. Just put the entrance directly on top of the exit on a steep slope and they get stuck. Never patched that.

don't judge them man, they have priorities, you know

kirby's adventure obviously?

If I remember when they patch it they add a command to keep it or Im thinking about "switch weapons right before the taunt so they stick to the bone"

But yeah, shit like civilians and edge taunting was harmless and I do miss them too.

Still, my favorite exploit of all time was blocking the garage doors with the sandman ball or with a sticky jumping Demo like the door to Steel point B and bonk crashing =Ego= servers

That last sounds great

last I checked, civilian still works

I cant find a video but the original version was tossing a sandman ball into a bonk scout then later when the fish was added if you whacked a bonk scout you killed the server right away.

>last I checked, civilian still works

How? Didnt they patch invalid weapon slots forcing you into civilian mode?

Why are you responding to me?

>How?
throw mad milk, keep fire button held down, before it recharges, pick up another one. Done.

Should work for jarate too.

Thanks but I still have a question: Im pretty sure I saw a soldier doing the civilian a month ago and I misstook it for a taunt fucking up.

Can other classes do the civilian? Some trick with the Soldier backpacks or something?
