i can see it bringing people from other games to try it and possibly get into the competitive scene, but i also see MORE HATS ALL THE TIME X_X, and stupid weps, no one can forget the stupid weps!

Its a good thing for comp players imo. How to capitalise on this?

suggest other competitive players from other games (CSS) to play scout and soli and take over your slot at LAN :P

Asian servers are already starting to get populated by aimbotters. met 3 of those fags today. sooner or later they’re gonna hit eu servers.

The publics I sometimes play are usually ran by a small community who has admins on the server all the time, thus I dont worry bout hackers. Doubt itll be a problem for comp… and thats the price you have to pay for 20k new players.

^fuck yeah :D

Mmm etf2l definitely needs to reconsider their summer stance in light of this imo. Perhaps negotiate with valve to try get some “in game prize” rather than trying to be super serious steelseries season 10 or something (ie. not another AFS), but either way some kind of valid opportunity for newcomers to play or see comp.

I agree with this. More of a fun summer season rather than a serious mess of one.

ETF2L should hurry with a new season, preferably vanilla ofc. Then organize few broadcasted showmatches, spread fragmovie links.. make huds/tweaks available for everyone etc.. Got drinkin to do so too busy myself. Hopefully someone makes the initiatitiveiitiveitve. and and and also make a pickup channel for the new players.
