Fellas getting large enough that a get a news plast from PC Gamer on how TF2C had to change up their name. Making moves, making moves!

Oh shit for real? Ig 230k wishlists isnt anything to scoff at lmao

Not the peak of journalism but still pretty cool

https://www.pcgamer.com/games/fps/team-fortress-2-classic-is-now-team-fortress-2-classified-has-been-delayed-to-january-30-it-wouldnt-be-an-authentic-tf2-experience-without-a-bit-of-valve-time/

im looking forward to the retail release in hopes of servers that are active more than once per sometimes

im looking forward for doing nothing

230k wishlists, you will have a hard time finding servers that aren't active

but not wishing hard enough to find out how to install it manually lol

its 2025 and people are still scared of .exe's

>wide youtube coverage on tf2c >trusted homepage website with 0 flags >installation is no different than how steam does it

"but guys what if its a virus"

the installation looks like ASS though

ass is like the youtube caption format

command box is a beautiful name for a child

when the scary command box pops up on screen and you know your PC has now been infected with a video game

videos games such as tf2 turned me woke and made me what i am today

video games are bad

meow

at least they're honest with the username

lol

finally some good (read: horrifying) ban appeals ️

man what are these guys thinking ?

dirty dirty thoughts

more like deranged i should add

cmon gimme a break im just a little guy. all i did was sexually harass you and your staff and various other people

"bro please it's my birthday i can do a little sexual harassment as a treat"

What on earth did I miss?

the usual

ain't taking part on polech or anything but i already had trouble with yuri a few times (mainly shitload of ragebait)

Does someone need to report a player for them to be punished for insulting players?

They do not, no.

Merry Chrimuh

dozer why didnt you shill me the model/actriz album earlier this shit is amazing

this is like if trent reznor got therapy after Pretty Hate Machine and came out as gay

trent reznor is gay though......

cause i would laugh

russian government with the christmas gift of nuking half the internet again

something something blackfin documentary

I do feel for the people that just wanna play games with friends and have to put up with that :-/

got a proper speaker setup with a pretty loud subwoofer and i fear my downstairs neighbours are going "this loud bitch is at it AGAIN"

having a good sound setup is sooo incredible

yeeeeaap. just wish i wasnt so self-conscious about turning the volume up sometimes lol. old apartment block and all that.

well it depend what music you listen too lol

If you wanna be extra nice you could do a test with your neighbours where you turn up the volume and they tell you when they can hear it so you know where that threshold is

but honestly even with very good speakers i am still a headphone boy

earbuds hurts my ears

I hate how loud earbuds have to be before you can hear them clearly over outside noise

yeah mine doesn't have noise cancellation or fancy stuff so its kinda rough sometimes

pretty much the entire reason i just wear full headphones instead of earbuds. it also helps give me an excuse to not interact with strange dudes when they try to approach

My only excuse to not wear headphones outside it's because it destroys my hair.

so i've been playing deus ex half the morning

i dont go outside

yeah that's the minus of headphones it meses hair so much

I almost exclusively wear headphones for anything on my pc, when I'm out and about I just use those old apple wired earbuds. I really don't mind keeping them quieter cause I like to be aware of my surroundings

yeah I used to try walking to work wtih music or an audio book and it just never worked for me. Either I couldn't hear the thing I was listening to over traffic noise, or it was so loud you can't hear what's going on around you (and possibly damaging hearing)

what grinds my gears these days is people that don't even use headphones and just blast their music at max volume on the bus/subway though a shitty phone speaker

and somehow it's also never a genre of music I actually enjoy either

that is true. though i suppose it's unsurprising that having bad taste and being annoying in public are mutual traits

man that is one of the most relatable shit i ever heard

like how in the hell that every annoying guy in public listen to shitty music

I'd be curious to see the results of a poll on what genre that is by region

and whether it varies

at least here it's always rap

but I would laugh if somewhere in the world there's a bunch of nuisance grandpas blasting classical music on public transit

yeah it's usually cheap hip-hop/trap around here. no idea how anybody finds it appealing, a lot of it has like. zero artistic nutritional value, so to speak?

like all art I am sure it is subjective, but yeah someone basically just talking arythmically over music doesn't do anything for me musically

throw in gratuitous off-key autotune effects and it just grates on my ears

show off your dominance by blasting your weird music taste on the public transit

usually from what i hear its abnoxiously shitty rap/hip hop or HORRIBLE techno music

like down in my region of france (north) there is a lot of rednecks

wich means cars with huge techno bass shit song

like i am a huge fan of rap music and hearing cheap ass autotuned song is an heresy

yeah even if I don't like the genre I can appreaciate when an artist has musical ability

yeah but the fact that those people made some music genre sound horrible pisses me of

I kind of feel like autotune is to 2010s music what AI is to today's... and I don't mean that in a good way

If you're using it then it's probably a crutch

I want to roll dice

does the /roll command not work for you?

/roll
