Vorpy · 2011-07-13 23:05:20

And yeah, refractor is really hard to kill. Or...I am not very good.

Probably both.

If you can't guess who I am, it's because you're on drugs.

who were Refractor and Myk?

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-13 23:07:57

refractor identified Myk as a really good TF2 player, and someone who'd apparently headed a team called "Pandemic".

Stormtroper · 2011-07-13 23:08:07

^What's you steam name?

Steam name means ingame name, right? That one is "Matchbox".

Edit: Huh, a ninja asked a question I unknowingly answered.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-13 23:08:38

Also, did you contact steam support and how you redeemed a free game on steam?

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-13 23:08:57

There's your steam username and then your current alias, which can change on-demand (but there's a record of it).

MillerCross · 2011-07-13 23:09:06

I thought they were IJBMers. ._.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-13 23:09:16

@ninjaclown: how i what?

Stormtroper · 2011-07-13 23:10:37

^^^ I know, but which one is used for friending? I'm assuming the changeable one, but...

Vorpy · 2011-07-13 23:10:38

Anyone who micspams like that isn't from IJBM.

Would anyone here taunt players like that?

ninjaclown · 2011-07-13 23:11:11

You got something on steam from a friend as a gift, right? That should upgrade your account, like so (particularly where it says redeem a gift).

Stormtroper · 2011-07-13 23:12:05

^^ No, my voice doesn't sound good enough to illustrate how above them I am.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-13 23:13:15

Who mic spams?

Forzare · 2011-07-13 23:13:42

I think a Steam premium account =/= TF2 premium account.

Vorpy · 2011-07-13 23:13:51

If I had a mic I would just play GIFT liveblogs or conspiracy theory podcasts over it.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-13 23:21:33

^^Actually it does mean the same thing, before TF2 became F2P it differentiated people who paid for games and people who only played the free ones.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-14 00:18:56

Anyone want a crate? I'll take anything for it.

Ponicalica · 2011-07-14 00:24:29

I have a mic and I've sometimes sung poorly on it. I should play an all-troper/IJBMer game and micspam it up.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-14 00:32:30

If anyone wants a backburner AND a crate, I'll be glad to trade.

Chagen · 2011-07-14 01:01:20

I have no idea why micspamming is so popular.

This game is treated half as a very good shooter and half as a platform for endless comedy.

ninjaclown · 2011-07-14 01:23:35

Because that's what TF2 does well. Valve made TF2 into a semi-comedy, a parody of the 60s and everything involved, and that's why it looks like the most violent Pixar movie you've ever seen. Try reading a TF2 comic sometime.

As for mic spamming, Valve has always been known for that, so they went with it and allowed as much mic spamming as people wanted, leading to some very interesting events or casual conversations.

RocketDude · 2011-07-14 08:37:37

That, and you can mute them.

Also, you people gotta add me on Steam: RocketRunner-Not a Spy

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-14 10:01:55

> I think a Steam premium account =/= TF2 premium account.

Yeah, this.

Crimson · 2011-07-14 12:14:02

I've got a Boston Basher and an Eviction Notice up for trade. Looking for Ali Baba's Wee Booties, Splendid Screen, Metal, or a Chargin' Targe.

Forzare · 2011-07-14 12:16:26

I'd trade the Boots for the Eviction notice, but I'm not gonna have access to a computer until tonight.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-14 12:16:33

I finally got a Huntsman and discovered that I don't really like it.

Still want a degreaser though.

Vorpy · 2011-07-14 12:19:19

I friended refractor and he told me the best way to get better is to run some different settings, on low, so you can aim at where people are going to hit them rather than aiming at them, since most projectiles are slow. He helped me practice with medic and gave me a few tips I should pass along to you:

When you are about to die, use your Ubercharge and flee.
Don't be stingy with your Ubercharge. If you use it, and your healed dies, point it at another person.
Pair with a Soldier or Demoman at the beginning, and have them rocketjump repeatedly, which will allow them to lose life and charge your UC faster from healing wounded allies.
Keep the Saw handy when in close quarters, you can kill spies and scouts who are getting too close to you.
Arc your Syringe Gun from afar. They don't do much damage but it helps when weakening enemies enough to kill them.
Use the Blutsauger, the Ubersaw and the Medigun. Medigun for larger classes, Kritzkrieg for Snipers and Spies.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-07-14 12:23:17

I've just friended him; I want to ask him for practice now.

Howdy, Stranger!
