Where’s my Dragon Simulator?

March 9, 2015 Medic 2 Comments dragon, medic, non-tf2, pyro, roar, Skyrim

When I’m not busy sticking syringes into Scouts and shoving modified fire hoses up people’s backsides, I like to think I’m a dragon. Dragons are such awesome creatures and because they don’t exist, anyone can imagine dragons to look however they want. Cool eh? A thread titled dragons on SPUF instantly grabbed my attention but left me disappointed. But one thing I have always felt this world lacks is a decent dragon simulator. There is currently a game called Dragon: The Game on Steam, but it’s so Early Access that it’s barely an alpha. And it costs €17. Fuck that.… [Continue Reading]

Annoying Little Pricks

March 8, 2015 Medic 0 Comments balance, criticism, hate, scout, weapon

When I announced a Week of Love and Hate, I tried to be different. I wanted everyone else to have a crack at writing something before I decided to write my articles. I ended up writing about Pyro and Medic. What I REALLY wanted to do though was write about Scout. I mean, come on! He’s so hate-able! He’s an annoying little prick. Alright, take a deep breath, Medic. It’s just Scout. Except he’s always there. An Engineer will, nine times out of ten, be whacking a sentry. A Sniper will be a cowardly bastard and hide. Pyros? Pyros are… [Continue Reading]

How to be a Model SPUFer

March 7, 2015 Medic 0 Comments fun, good behavior, guide, SPUF

I’m a model SPUFer. Fourteen thousand posts. Three thousand rep. Five stars. Nearly everyone loves me. Whoever doesn’t love me generally gets torn apart by a bunch of Soldiers and Demomen all eager to get my heals. Few people genuinely think I’m an idiot. And I’m well known, at least within the realms of the Steam User Forums. Is this all because I have a gimmicky username? No. It’s because of a few simple things that everyone ought to consider while posting on any forum. Today, I present to you how to be a model SPUFer. Like me. 1. Follow… [Continue Reading]

The Ubervitatator Vow and Other Beta Weapons

March 6, 2015 Medic 0 Comments idea, insane, medic, weapon

I was browsing around the official TF2 wiki when I remembered the old TF2 Beta. Originally, the beta was a separate, 12GB download, in which Valve occasionally tested stuff like the Overdose, a bunch of pocket Soldier weapons and the Detonator. A lot of stuff that happened in the beta stayed in the beta, never to be seen again. One of those things was a souped up Vita-Saw. Yes, a Vita-Saw. One of the beta patches gave the Vita-Saw the ability to see enemy health. I never got to try this ungodly combination, but it must have been somewhat amusing.… [Continue Reading]

A Heads Up

March 5, 2015 Medic 0 Comments announcement, request, SPUF

Good day everyone! I just wanted to gather everyone round so I could have a quick chat with you all. Really, I should do this more often, you know, as a community thing. First things first, I’d like to thank you all for A Week of Love and Hate. It was a success! And it was awesome seeing lots of articles written by lots of people. It really made a change. It was also nice having a week of me not having to actually write anything at all. There’s also something interesting to note: We all thought in a similar… [Continue Reading]

Medic’s Fourth Ever Competitive Match – Things Get Exciting!

March 2, 2015 Medic 0 Comments 4v4, competitive, demoman, game mode, medic, scout, soldier, strategy

So yes, this time, I actually have something to report! An actual close match! This one was really close, and at one point it looked like it was all over for us. A quick note first. The last two games, I didn’t really go into detail. Not because we lost, not at all. It’s just there’s not much to write about when you get steam rolled. And admittedly, if it wasn’t for the excitement of my first ever match, I wouldn’t have written about Stallone either. Anyway, let’s get started! The map this time was Maple Ridge, a KOTH map,… [Continue Reading]

The Dominationing

February 26, 2015April 6, 2017 Medic 0 Comments analysis, criticism, domination, glitches, opinion, request, unfun

There’s been a couple of posts on SPUF recently about Dominations and I think now is a good time to make a post about them, both as a recently dominated Medic and a Medic who got a bunch of dominations, but also as an average TF2 player and someone who sees other people getting dominated or dominating. Let’s start with a recap on how dominations work. Simply put, you get 4 kills or assists on someone without them killing or assisting in killing you, you dominate them. A notification appears on the scoreboard, showing that you have a domination and/or… [Continue Reading]

Medic’s Third Ever Competitive Match – Communication and Experience, I have none.

February 21, 2015 Medic 0 Comments 4v4, analysis, competitive, medic, overview, soldier, Ultiduo, weapon

So Friday the 20th. My third ever official match. This was by far our hardest match, because the enemy team had SO MUCH experience. They’ve been playing 6v6 and 4v4 together for a loooong time. Season 12 or something like that. We knew from the start that we had little chance of winning, but that didn’t stop us from trying our best. So I don’t bore you, I’m not going to do a commentary of the whole match. It was quite long and involved us dying a lot. You don’t really want to hear how I died 16 times, 4 times… [Continue Reading]

Why I love the Engineer

February 20, 2015 Medic 0 Comments a week of Love and Hate, engineer, hate, love

Let’s face it, no one likes the Engie. Not even people who play Engie like him, only playing because they have to. But Engie’s been my favourite class since the beginning of my TF2 career. Here’s why: 1. Buildings Engineer’s buildings seperate him from the rest of the crowd, with his Sentry Gun providing area denial, his Dispenser providing health, ammo and (to some extent), cover and his Teleporters for faster troop deployment. Though people think that Engineers should be removed because of their “grind-the-game-to-a-halt” playstyle thanks to their Sentries, many don’t realize that the lack of a Dispenser or… [Continue Reading]
