This is a thread for the old schoolers to talk about the funny shit we used have to put up with in TF2 when it first started.

...we used to have to injure ourselves during setup time in order to get an uber in time when the gates opened.

...medics could save their uber by swapping weapons.

Pyro required more sneakiness than any spy and were the punching bag of every other class.

<insert class> was totally OPed...

OK, now that we got that out of the way...

Medics used to have to hold down their mouse button the entire time they were healing...

When you put a sentry down, it stayed there.

It wasn't about items and hats, it was about fun and actual strategy.

...there was no Kritzkrieg,you had your uber and that was it. All the maps were uphill, both ways.

I miss when there was no time penalty for switching uber targets, you could keep 3 or so people continuously uber'd at the same time. Quoth the raven, nevermore...

Were new items were gotten though achievements... and you either whored them in achievement servers or waited a really long time to get them normally...

**Xanthur34** · 03-13-11, 12:25 PM

...the biggest news going about every server was how cool these paper bags were

...'crafting' was a hopeful idea to be implemented

...the idea of Demoman becoming a melee specialist was laughable
