Played last night on another server for a while.

Man, there really are a lot of people out there playing TF2 who seemingly have no idea that Spy even exists. The sheer lack of any kind of spy-checking was both staggering and delightful.

I'll just leave this here.

We live in exciting times.

Spy thrives on inexperience. And most pubs are full of inexperienced players.

Also, bugfix update. Lengthy changelog but nothing fancy.

So I realized something tonight. I really like TF2 with 4-8 people per team, but a full server fills me with incandescent rage. With a moderate team size, it's possible to play intelligently and actually feel like you, personally, are accomplishing something. With a full server, it's just a meatgrinder; there's too much going on to keep track of it all, so you shoot in the general direction of the other team until you get blindsided by something (usually about 10 seconds after you respawn). That, combined with the fact that a full server only makes the normal issues (lag compensation and the like) that much worse (I swear to Christ, I got facestabbed more times tonight...) and people become incapable of using teamwork once the team gets over a certain size, full server games just end up pissing me the hell off.

Keep in mind that every time a large update releases for TF2, there are pubbies everywhere. The regulars didn't start stacking up on the server until after a few hours passed, and prior to then, yeah it was a meatgrinder. Even when it got to mostly regulars, well... new stuff releases, people want to just try it out. The game will probably return to normal in a week... maybe.

Also, this is genius:

I swear, I rage quit this game far too often. I have little experience with dealing with Spies, and they drive me insane.

Especially the same players who just come after me constantly. I guess they have to dole out on the noob.
