Hi there. I recently switched to tf2 from quake after finding it extremely addictive. Played it quite a bit at a friends house, and when he heard that I just bought the game myself, he directed me to this place. I`ve been playing quake games for the past 3 years, and looks like that gives me a little help playing scout in tf2. Did some reading about the game basics, what a scout should and should not do.
I have some questions – how can i make tf2 looks as quake, cfg? Driver edits? Without braking any rules. Also – is there such a thing as mirc pickup channels? Cus I came to a conclusion that tf2lobby is sh*t.
Basicly for now I just play deathmatch servers, training my hand to get used to the game.
If anybody is up for teaching me stuff `bout the game and the class i play, send me an invite pl0x!

talk to the admins, maybe they will allow to play as a trial since you’ve some experience from quake :)

Quoted from Skyride

Can I just say something here,

I’ve let a few people in the channel who normally would be disallowed, for one simple reason. Pretty much every person who asks me for an invite, it goes something a bit like this:

Person: Can I get an invite?
Me: ETF2L profile link? :)
Person: Link

1) They meet the requirements and seem to have alright english, invite them.
2) They meet the requirements but are from a country where English isn’t a well-spoken language, I chat to them or troll them a bit to test their english (I should seriously have saved them somewhere, some of them are fucking gold), then its an invite or not depending on english skills
3) They don’t meet the requirements, but seem to have ok english. I give them a chance to talk their way in, like explain why they want in, what their motives are etc. If I like their answer, we let them in and put them on the watch list (and yes, we do LITERALLY have a list).

I promise, anyone reading this looking for an invite, you can’t bullshit me if you fall in #3. ;)

(Of course theres a #4, but thats a bit redundant).

Bassically, I’m totally up for letting people learn there. Theres a guy in there atm who I let in, defo didn’t meet the requirements experience wise, but he really was a star example of #3. He speaks english as a 3rd language, and is using this chan to practice it so he can trial for euro teams. That, imo, is damn well fine by me.

Some of you really need to get over yourselves, theres people acting “elitist” about being solid div4, its actually quite disgusting, pathetic and childish.

Thanks to Waebi, who invited me into the pickup chan.
Going to play together with Sir Remix tomorrow. If anybody wants to mix with a nab like me, please invite me on steam!

After playing some lobbies with really dumb people, i`ve found out that i also like demo. So right now im between demo and scout. Talking with swifty and others, ive been told that its more of a “smart-play” class, not a no-brain just aim class. My question – could anybody help me out and explain the main role of a demo in the team, its gameplay? That would help me make my decision about my main class.

Eh we must have given you an overly cruel impression during that pickup and made you feel useless. You played really well considering how much experience you have, but jumping into pixel pickups is a bit of a big step right off the bat since you get people from div1-5 playing there. It’s better to be lobbying for a bit up until you feel you’re playing well enough and you know you have the basics down since people won’t be as harsh. Then you should try and join a team/come join the pickups.

I usually dont mess up as much as i did in that pickup, because i just returned from a party, a bit tipsy and went straight to playing a pickup. i usually need to warm up a bit and i do alright.
