We have had a fairly serious update. New hats as usual but there were some important changes to stock weapons.
1. All mini-guns now have damage and accuracy ramp up after they start firing. Full accuracy and damage is reached 1 second after firing.
2. All Demoman stickybombs now have damage ramp up. Full damage is reached 2 seconds after firing.
The demo change has the potential to completely change 6s play and both these changes will affect Highlander. Airburst stickies now only do 20 damage! Demos now find it much harder to 1v1 any other class.

Recently got back into tf2 after a very long break, been reading about this MvM and from what I read from website I cannot earn the rare items without using the Tour of Duty ticket which I have to buy with real life cash, is this true?

thank god for that demo update too bad it comes a few years late haha

you know they reversed it right?
the heavy nerf though was really unnecessary.

Its true, you only pay if you complete the tour though. The weapons are only cosmetic, so it seems fair to me.
EDIT: At least I think they are cosmetic.

does no one on TL play TF2 anymore?

Anyone watching i55 tf2? That NR vs Froyotech series was ridiculous.

Big necro - anyone still playing regularly? Do you play competitive?
Huge updates in the past few weeks/months:
COMPETITIVE MATCHMAKING BETA - this is 'late' by some standards, but it's definitely welcome. Another bridging gap for the public community to competitive
IN GAME STREAM LIST - this is pretty cool. While viewer counts haven't exploded or anything, there has been an average 30 odd percent (I believe) increase in viewership for most streamers which is pretty cool.
VARIOUS WEAPON CHANGES - there are too many to list but one of the good changes was the Loose Cannon nerf way back that slightly reduced its damage and made it so it didn't ping pong you to the other side of the map. Still one of my fav pub weps tho
If anyone wants to try out Matchmaking, I have plenty of passes to give away if you miss out on a stress test.
EDIT: lots of stuff out of date in OP. If required I can post some recent, relevant stuff to get the OP back on track.

I'd love to try matchmaking.. i've been waiting for it to go live since it was announced, also joined the steam group to try get invite but no luck. When is the next stress test?
I'd love to hear more about it also, and about TF2 in general, been a good 9-12 months since i played properly.

Not sure when it is, but there's a steam group https://steamcommunity.com/groups/tfcompetitive that you need to be part of, as well as have mobile steam guard etc enabled. A lot of settings are forced on due to it being a stress test, so if you typically have gibs/ragdolls off, you'll see em on in matchmaking.
There's also a group that will send you notifications when a stress test is live here -> http://steamcommunity.com/groups/tfcompstresstests
Basically right now it's just cp maps (was ctf as well) with some koth maps, too. It's done first to two round wins, presumably to get as many games in as possible.
What else would you like to know? I've played at a high level for quite a few years so if you have any more q's I'm happy to lend a hand.

Yea i have joined the steam group, are all the weapons allowed in comp? or is there some removed / changed just for competitive.

When you say comp I assume you mean matchmaking? If so, every unlock is allowed at this point in time, and there are no class limits.

Yeah, sorry. Thanks for the info!
|
i tried it, its pretty fun but since theres a stress test i dont think theres actual MMR, since i get demolished because its filled with ESEA players who are stupidly good
will wait for MMR
|
yeah no MMR/rank discrepancy. Lots of cheaters in it too atm which is pretty annoying, though they are pretty easy to counter if you play it right e.g. vaccinator bullet resistance pewpew which is awesome, unlike in a game like cs with there being no "counter".
