What if we deleted half of TF2's weapons?
Picture this thought experiment: Valve announces that half of the unlockable weapons in TF2 would be deleted - however, the community would be the ones to decide which weapons got to stay and which ones had to go. In this case, which weapons would you choose? Well, that's the discussion that @fishstickonastick-gaming and I wanted to have, and as it turns out, the decisions were a lot harder to make than we expected.

"Why upload this on your side channel instead of your main?" The direction my main channel is heading is beginning to warrant higher and higher quality per video which I don't think lesser-edited videos like this uphold very well. While there's definitely an audience for this sort of thing, most people on Great Blue are there for the maps with friends and "What if?" videos, and I want (most of) the uploads on there to have time put into them rather than being unfiltered 2+ hour discussions. There's still plenty of quicker stuff I enjoy making, though, so Blue's Roost is my compromise so that I can continue to make these "auxiliary" videos without compromising my quality and tanking my metrics on Great Blue. Who knows - if videos on this channel become popular, maybe I'll consider putting some more time into them and moving them back over. (Plus, should I ever decide to move my main channel away from TF2, I'll still want somewhere established to talk about TF2 stuff since I can't imagine myself ever completely leaving this game.)

What is TF2's Cheesiest Weapon?
มุมมอง 317K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
You ever die to a TF2 weapon you know is statistically balanced but still think it's unfair? Call now, we can help. This is a tier list ranking every weapon in TF2 based on how "cheesy" it is (or in other words, how unfun/unfair it feels to play against). This is NOT necessarily a discussion of balance - while a weapon being unbalanced could make it feel more cheesy, that is completely secondar...
The most absurd TF2 weapon rebalance video
มุมมอง 907K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
A test of a style of video I want to try! This is a video from creator Grouch that's been floating around the TF2 sphere recently and become rather infamous for the absurd rebalance ideas. Originally I wanted to dissect them with fellow weapon rebalance enthusiast FishStickOnAStick as a more serious analysis of what makes rebalances work and not. However, upon having more friends join the discu...

    Ok, i know this is an insane take, but the enforcer "buffs" aren't unsalvageable. Just hear me out on this. What if the damage bleed was based on the % of missing health the enemy has. So for example if you shot a heavy with 100 hp left it would do 14 damage per tick (20% missing hp every single bleed tick)

    Well, the concept of bleed on a spy is functional. Together with a scout he is the class who actually have good chances of disengaging from fighting the opponent. Which is a good choice in many situation. So leaving your opponent with bleed when you make a get away can not only potentially deal more damage than regular shots, but also distract from chasing the spy and instead make them chase the health pack. Thoughh the iplementation is jank. The idea definately needs polishing.

    I want to let bro cook. The idea of a gun that inflicts bleed on hitscan? Kinda funny. Imagine, if you will, how annoying (affectionate) of a spy weapon it would be if this shitty enforcer rework was further buffed by immediately cloaking you if you manage to hit. Or just give the spy a fuckin' scorch shot. It'd be so funny.

    • @PixelHead777
      @PixelHead777 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I do *get* the desire to make more designs that disrupt but not kill. I think there's an important element to game design where something also has to be fun to fight against and a spy just being able to bleed you from kinda wherever is not fun to fight against, but I GET it. (And obviously the best status effect is Dead but like then everything just becomes sniper wars if you chase that line.)

    • @theotv5522
      @theotv5522 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@PixelHead777 But then you're promoting a very toxic behavior, that you're making your sole gaming purpose is to annoying other players. Dial this kind of behavior up to 10 and you end up with stream snipers, because they too, made it their sole purpose is to annoy 1 specific player. You can argue these 2 examples are different, but their intent stays the same, the root is the same. We should not open this floodgate my brother, because I doubt we can close it once we let it pass.

    As a scorch shot user, I imagine it's very annoying to fight against. And in part, that is on purpose. I do not play pyro to be fun to play against. If I wanted to play pyro to be fun to play against, I would simply download whatever wild-ass turboskill the det-jumping superbeast pyros have. The scorch shot, sets you on fire. From over there. And it's not good at it, but I sure am doing it.

    The Dead Ringer isn't just annoying to play against, it's also the epitome of a crutch: positioning is a fundamental aspect of playing Spy correctly, and the Dead Ringer removes the need to pay attention to your position on the battlefield. Beginners who learn to play Spy with the Dead Ringer become terrible at playing Spy in general.

      @theotv5522 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      The sad thing is as of date, Grouch's server is completely empty, so I doubt he is still working on these updates. It shows the community has tons of ideas, but never commit to it, so they just end up half-baked. The 1 time Valve listened to the community, they nerf the Ambi out of existence because people cherry-picked their 1 incident where they got sniped by an Ambi across the map. All this is why Valve should never let the community touch the weapons.

  • @DefinitelyReal-i1y
