CP server = Greatness!

don't complain, ,u know it's better than when the map was payload or some other PL map, come on. Then you had crappy maps plus no teamplayers. Last night I played CP and some during the day and it was pretty good teamwork; maybe we need more leaders calling shots if the teamplay sucks.

The classes were fine it was just that they all just ran at the point. So they all died in a hail of gunfire one by one. Also they were heavily outclassed skill wise but the other team sucked just enough that they didnt push for our 2. It was a stalemate just because no one was good enough to win. Very boring. At least on payload maps when you get down to the last 60 seconds it gets really fast paced.

I might have to give the "new" server a shot. Biggest reason I don't play TF2 much anymore is because it sucks if it's not with a bunch of regs... but if all the people playing on CP are actually pretty decent, maybe it won't be so bad playing with strangers.

I kinda see where langrad is coming from. I have fun on them though. For example Im not very good as a scout, but on the 24/7 server Im actually able to do exactly what a scout does. Very shocking. Im not sure if I would call them boring but I dont see as much teamplay. I have had to hold my tongue several times when the team would overload on a certain class, simply because me and few regs could make enough difference to win. Maybe if these non-regs see what teamplay can do, MAYBE itll convert them. Isnt that what the 24/7 was for?

p.s. I think Langrad has a bot medic, he ALWAYS has a medic......

p.s.s. wait thats what I do........

well i can guarantee you a CP map is more conducive to teamplay than any PL map

Yeah, its real obvious when one side does and the other doesnt, and not some many sentry nests

Lol failquote
But in the small amount of time I've gotten to play on the 24/7 server I've had some of the best time playing as a team that i can, lots of teamplay on all the maps. Especially fastlane which it my favorite to play (I could play fastlane all day). Sentrys are always called out and colaboration is used to take them out, to the point that all there engineers raged....
It is true that it doesn't take long to see when one team is working together and the other isn't, but then the bad guys rage out and 3-4 MF! decide to all join before the teams even out :5

Don't hold your tongue—how else will they know they're not doing it right? :P

Since you often play Medic (and this goes for everyone, I don't mean to put you in the spotlight), call out what you see. Quiet players will often follow suit once they realize that teamplay will help everyone advance. For example, maybe one of the five Spies on your team will start communicating what is going on behind enemy lines. We can hope, right?

Another good strategy is to offer to Medic Buddy-up with a newb. That Sniper who has all of three points after about two rounds just might be more effective as a Soldier or Heavy with a good Medigun constantly backing them up. Initiate the teamplay, guys—don't expect to have it fall in your lap on a 24/7 setup.

He's a smooth talker, damn him. Tempted me with a little thing called Kill Assist - Medic.

I think we need to start a support group.

**Oozish** · 09-21-09, 10:57 AM

usually top fraggers have a dedicated medic; medics want points and go to where the points are; especially if they are soldiers since they can protect the medic much better than other classes.

**Gonzo0100** · 09-21-09, 11:08 AM

i found that if your team needs a medic, ask a bottom frag to roll kritz and gurantee them points. Pocket up with them. Nothing pisses people off like going medic and repeatedly dieing.
