There is seriously no reason to play TF2 over this game
TF2 is free.
TF2 is fun.
and it shows
TF2 is better, has a higher skill floor and skill ceiling, and is actually fun to play.
It must suck being so poor that you can't even spend 40 bucks on a game that will obviously be the number one online shooter for the next half decade
overwatch's skill ceiling is about as deep as a puddle. tf2 requires much more to get good
Yes but that goes vice versa because Tf2 is both free and has a high skill ceiling.
Overwatch cost money with low mechanical skill. So you can very easily play both even if you want to git gud as much as possible with Tf2.
TF2 doesn't cater to SJW bullshit
how?
Tried TF2 years ago. All I remember is constantly dying, people having upgrades that were locked behind pay wall and way not. Not my thing.
Hard counters, not allot to get better at with heroes due to being mechanically dumbed down, everyone moves at the same pace, ults are fucking huge and hard to miss with, the only skill comes from teamplay and even then that shit gets samey due to metas.
ults dont reset upon death. in tf2 every buildable charge ability will reset on death. self inflicted damage is also higher but yields more maneuverability, IE soldier rocket jumping compared to pharah kinda shooting the ground with the knock back thing.
A decade of added shit will do that to a game. Just wait for Overwatch's incessant updates to "keep it alive".
Still a mediocre team-based shooter. I'll play the same game for free rather than shelling out $40 which could buy me several deals of better games.
>hat were locked behind pay wall and way not.
Did you play back when hats gave you bonuses? Because those have been removed.
Don't remember much mate. I think you had to pay for weapons as well or something. I'll try to get into this again sometime
>I think you had to pay for weapons as well or something
Achievement items have to be unlocked via class mile stone achievements if that's what you mean. Everything else can be gotten from drops or crafting.
youve never had to buy weapons, its always been through achievements and drops. the option to buy is there but its insanely cheaper/free to get them through other means
Not the guy you're talking to, but at this point it feels like TF2 and Overwatch get content at the same rate, actual content like maps and decent sized balance patches. Not to mention it takes five months of Kaplan's think tank to shit out a mediocre hero.
Could you please put "overwatch" somewhere in your posts so the wordfilter catches it?
Thanks.
These, plus
>Better maps
>Better artstyle
>Better, simpler balance
There's no reason to play overwatch
TF2 doesn't have a character with three times the HP of most characters that can one shot you from across huge distances and can heal themselves for half in a second.
Then again they do have the Spy
>a #1 shooter
>after Quake 3's release
lmao
I'm not really talking about big patches but more like what Valve has been doing for TF2 since trading came out which is just introduce a couple of weapons at a time every so often until 5 years go by and holy shit, you realize there's about 200 weapons and 150 of them break the game.
Fuck you TitanFall 2 is far more fun.
How what?
Overwatch is pretty much the shallowest FPS in the history of mankind and I'm not even exaggerating.
Each character is extremely limited and once you learn what each button does there's pretty nothing else to learn, the only difference between a bad and a good player is how many headshots you can hit and even that is severely limited since the characters are ridiculously slow and hitboxes are ridiculously big.
It's just a casual game for casuals, it's not meant to have depth.
Stock is objectively superior in almost all situations...
I enjoy TF2 more.
All that's required for TF2 to "win" this stupid contest is for valve to pull their thumb out and squish dumb crap like the beggars and put an actual team behind the game, not a skeleton crew. But it's Valve so never ever.
Most weapons are sidegrades at best with only a select few being almost straight upgrades like the Degreaser, I don't understand what you mean by "break the game".
What's up with all the TF2 threads today? Did they shat out an update?
Overwatch babbies learned that it exists, they probably saw a Reddit post about it or something.
>Loose Cannon
>Conch Pack + Black Box
>Dead Ringer + Spycicle
>Airstrike + Parachute vs. Your Sentry Gun
>Wrangler + Rescue Ranger
Plus the non-stop amount of throwables this game now has. Yeah, sure, in competitive, it's not noticable, in a full server with 24 people and most people are using annoying combinations of weapons that makes fighting them a pain in the ass + everyone has a throwable, the game is way more spamm-y than it should be.
I just play both, you don't have to choose.
>Loose Cannon
Worse than stock
>Conch, Black Box
Worse than stock (shotgun), also worse than gunboats
>DR + Spycicle
IW has more uses, stock is a better weapon in most cases (spycicle will melt instead of letting you sidestab, also it leaves extremely obvious ice statues which makes everyone spycheck)
>Airstrike
I admit, this one if used right is just OP. Can't believe it's still unnerfed.
>Parachute
Literal trash. Can't believe people sometimes use this.
>Wrangler + Rescue Ranger
Playstyle I guess. I never use them, I play better without.
You pretty much only mentioned gimmicky pubstomping sets that only work against generic brainless retards, only the Rescue Ranger is broken.
Why are you even discussing OW here? Really, no matter if they literally took TF2 and made it ten times better.
OW is new and popular, Sup Forums's contrarian nature can't accept anything like that.
>that only work against generic brainless retards
That's the majority of your team though. When you kill a spy with a dead ringer and you know he's a dead ringer, but your team is too retarded to see it, you pretty much have to play babysit half the game if he's a semi-competent player. Or having to deal with Scouts who easily run by you with Bonk! because again, your team is too dumb to pay attention. Shit like that is annoying and makes your already dumb team even worse to play with. It's part of why people prefer lone-wolf "team" shooters like Call of Duty.
>Y-y-you're just pretending to not like it!
>unironically playing either
Kill yourself.
I wouldn't mind OW discussion if it actually had good, lasting gameplay.
I preordered it and I'm kinda sad that I got bored of it so quickly, faster than any other FPS I played.
What Blizzard aimed for is just too obvious to me, they went for "game feel" and skinner box-style gameplay rather than a solid, skill-indexed shooter with depth and that bothers me.
Its the same reason you play Old Doom instead of new Doom
To be a fucking hipster that refuses to evolve
There is no reason to play OW over Paladins waifus aside, too
I find Overwatch maps extremely ugly and dark
Overwatch is a devolution of the genre, it barely even qualifies as FPS.
>posts ugly darkie
Theres a Destiny moba now?
Since overwatch release :
> Two map and two heroe has been released. Eichenwalde, and Oasis.
and then
> Only cosmetic update.
whereas in tf2 you got 3 map for halloween and a shitton of new cosmetic for everyone
real update are the one who gives you new thing to play with
Only other Blizzard game i played is Warcraft III.
But hey, Valvecucks are totally not brainwashed right? PRAISE THE GABEN EVERY SINGLE VALVE GAME IS A MASTRPICE HALF LIFE 3 WHENN???
Have you at least tried to play both?
Spy has a huge skill ceiling though. And even then, a team with either good communication or even a decent pyro can deal with them.
He posted a picture of Pharah?
I seriously don't get why people say play TF2 instead of Overwatch
Never played TF2 and I can just tell by looking at it and it's stupid humor and characters I won't like it. Especially since there's no cute girls in it.
>And even then, a team with either good communication
Where are those servers? Because they seemed to have died when Valve introduced their own toaster servers as a replacement and people found there to be no real point outside of shit like Skial 24/7 2Fort.
TF2 is free
>Where are those servers
Try competitive or community comp.
Overwatch is already boring as fuck
TF2 is too but I got way more mileage out of it
Its almost as if TF2 has been out for almost a decade or something and has an installed playerbase.
Fuckin' weird huh?
not a good thing
TF2 isn't full of cheap bullshit like ultimates and Roadhog's hook so it's automatically a better game
Comp TF2 is dead. Even pugs are difficult to effectively come by. Very difficult to find a still alive TF2 community with decent players that haven't just moved on.
>Have you at least tried to play both?
Admittedly, no. If OW didn't have didn't have that price, maybe I would have thought about it, but even then the player base is too large for the community to be any better than that of any popular MOBA, aka huge faggots. Add to that all of the anons saying how extremely babbymode casual it is, and here I am back to my original statement
Also how often does Blizzard add content like maps or characters out of curiosity? Cause even then it seems slower than Paladins updates
>community comp
thats too much effort man if its not 1 button press its too much
games with their forced matchmaking systems have proven that
overwatch's gameplay can be described as "Do your assigned job Slave..."
like, there's no gameplay, you literally just do the multiple choice questions every game.
sure it is
it doesn't cost anything to try it out and then dislike it
literally no downside
>playing comp
Overwatch should have added mod support but I know Blizzard is too Jewish to get rid of the dumb skin system
Like if there was warioware game mode that would be great
You're comparing the work of a fully staffed team to Valve's skeleton crew of supposedly ten people.
>overwatch is not free
a good thing?
"yes it means less kids and grievers"
people main torb even in masters stop kidding yourself
Why the fuck does it matter? having to buy the game won't keep shitters or other kinds of retards out of your game. All it will change is that you will meet more shitters that speak your language since there will be less 3rd worlders.
The TF2 team did not make a single fucking thing for the game since the summer. Shut your mouth. All the crappy hats and dumb maps are 100% community.
Israeli kike hero when? This game isn't multicultural enough.
I'll play overwatch when there's 16v16
I can just play last titan standing to get my class base shooter fix anyway
I mean, I don't know how you be bad enough at video games to not be at top tier play immediately.
besides, if top tier play is bad the game is flawed anyways.
And so what community has far better understanding on how the game is played.. You really loved hydro and dustbowl or what?
this
Yeah those uninspired, dishonest maps sure are keeping me playing the game.
I think what the game really needs a crippled, mentally retarded Jewish pansexual otherkin character so that all minorities are represented fairly
So? It doesn't remove the point that, atleast, tf2 receive more content (even tought it's the community) than the overwatch team (that have 100 employee), who sit on their ass making nothing but shitty sprays/voiceline/highlight intro where they should makes heroe and map.
For god sake, look at paladins, they are releasing ONE HEROE a month! They just revealed the next heroe yesterday.
the tfteam is composed of 15 person
source: driller a tfteam member on leddit during the gabe AMA
Most community made maps put Valve and Actiblizz to shame in terms of not having a fuck huge choke.
I dunno, it might have fifteen people on it right (now) because of the Pyro update, come the seasonal junk they'll probably shift half of them back to dumb VR crap.
Here's hoping they don't because I like content that isn't semi-monthly and fucking broken on release.
>it's fun with mods
welcome to every single game
Overwatch is so fucking shallow. It's like they took TF2 and made a game for retarded children
Overwatch's chokes are on purpose since there's nothing to the game other than muh teamfights.
Just play 1v1 for a while and you will see how utterly boring the gunplay is in this game, it only gets slightly interesting when it's utter chaos.
>Preferring Overwatch maps over TF2 maps
>They just revealed the next heroe yesterday
O shit thanks for letting me know man.
TF2 is free
Or TF2babbies are jealous that their dead game is getting overshadowed by Overwatch
>welcome to every single game
oh where can I download mods to overwatch?
>make an Isreali character
>make a skin for him that dresses him in Palestinian garb
The balance is better and more based on player skill than meta picks and hard counters.
no its deep because theres more characters? wtf
plus there's more teamplay.
how do you group up and push in team fortress two? Seriously, the game is just about being a nooby call of duty fragger...
give it five years first ;^)
>tf2
>balance
about as balanced as a fucking drunk ballerina, fag.
>Seriously, the game is just about being a nooby call of duty fragger...
Nice bait, faggot.
The sad thing is I can't tell if you're being ironic or not.
low quality bait
Most TF2 players like me were happy to finally get another class-based shooter, I got bored of TF2 years ago, I'm just disappointed at OW's complete lack of depth.
not even him, but 99% of TF2 is splitting up and getting epik stabs
You can play both, retard. They're not mutually exclusive.
Threads like this should be an insta-ban.
