The cap is what the menu gives you and you should turn on hit beeps and the option that shows you how much damage you've done on hit. When the second option is turned on it makes it really easy to gauge how much health your opponent has so you know whether you should continue fighting them or run.

Thanks for the tips CP`, that helps a lot.
Just played a bunch of games on Hightower (payload race). Running on a 20ms ping. Sweet ^_^ my computer can handle it just fine.
In how far can TL be a community in TF2? Regular private fights at specific intervals? I heard a private server is in the works, curious to hear how that's going.

Competitive Versus mode is amazing, really fun to watch.

Got into tf2 because of this thread two or three weeks ago  have alot of fun as spy and sometimes soldier/demo.
My question is about those stupid crates. I do get a lot of them and the numbers are all around 19-25 but those are for specific classes i don't really want any items for. So is there a series for little spies like me ?
If so is anyone willing to trade 1-2 for other crates?
|
Played with the new Cow Mangler and such.
Don't like it, but I like the new soldier shotgun (the laser thing). It only does 16 damage per shot, so I don't know if it's worthwhile, since I use my shotty as a finisher.

I'm looking to trade a strange Chargin Targe for another strange weapon.
I'm looking for strange weapons, these being my top picks: Sniper Rifle, Grenade Launcher, Scotish Resistance, or any of the Heavy's guns. Above these I'm open to any suggestions.
I've been asking in a couple servers for a couple days, but no one ever has anything good enough to trade. PM me on TL if you're interested.

I'd add Widescreen mode onto that list - it adds about 20 degress to your viewing angle, and a resolution that's native to your monitor.

I would love to join, but I really lack the confidence to think I'm good enough as well as the ability to actually be good enough. I might join the irc channel to troll/chat around/do random stuff tho.
Anyway, have the opinions changed about the new "Rocket" Launcher as the Steam forums have been not so active with the topic lately?
-I think that the extra reload nerf made the Launcher at least balanced, but I don't have the ability to really call it.
Do you guys have any suggestions about how to practice aiming with Scout/Soldier? Are there any specific server types/something else, or should I just play CP5's which I already do?

Joined.
For practicing aim, there are dm and mge servers, but teamplay is way more important than dm ability.

Semi-Finals should be starting soonish. Stream ^

Oh God, I want that Quake Rocket Launcher, it's fucking sexy!

Semi-finals should be starting at 20:00 CET. I assume the match that will be broadcasted is Ze Germans vs SG-1, which should be quite good.
If you don't want to watch it through a stream and want to control the camera yourself you can connect to an stv relay inside the game itself. Just type one of the following two adresses into the console:
connect troopers.fi:27020
connect 145.92.203.100:27100

Yep. The other match is NE.PENTIA(illegal) vs Anexis. Just talked with one of the players of Illegal. They are all drunk :-)

Bah, no respect for the classics. I'm hoping for the engy to get a nailgun though. He needs some love in terms of items.

I'd trade my hat and whatever extra metal I have for that Quake 4 Rocket Launcher though ):
