Yeah that was Sly Cooper. Was never a fan. MY favourite PS2 game is still Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2

ya server is dead most of the day, but with people working and in school that's undestandable. i'm a lonely housewife so i usually play a random server until our gets going again

i find the best way to deal with boredom in tf2 is to switch classes. if you always go offense, play a defensive class and vice versa. if you want to stick to your class try taking different positions are routes.

a good example is when i get bored of being scout(offensive) i might play sniper(defensive). after that i may stay sniper but instead i will snipe in front of the base.

The class button I push most is the random class button. :/

try joining different servers then that are playing maps besides 2fort. if your really bored of tf2 then quit for a week or so and then come back, that's what i do when i have lost all will to play a game.

ive started to notice that whenever we play a different map other than 2fort the server fills up a lot faster, like today we played batwater or w.e its called and the server was instantly full but when we went back to 2fort half the people left so noobgamers should deff consider doing that map rotation soon and doing less 2fort

Definitely switch classes if you're getting bored with tf2 (except spy, I hate getting stabbed). I've been doing that recently since a majority of my time has been spent on sniper. I'm trying to play more soldier/pyro/demo and it's been fun to learn the nuances of the other classes.

I've been focusing all of my time into sniping for the past month. I'm not sure what my next class will be, but I hope it's as fun as what I've been doing as the sniper.

You have to realize that most of the people who leave in those instances are the regulars who have been playing for a few hours and had already let people know they were going to leave after badwater was over. I try to rotate maps but if it never goes back to 2fort then the people who join for 2fort may leave, and the people who join for rotation may leave when it stays 2fort the rest of the night when the admins leave. *shrug* I'm sure NightLinks has a lot more stats and facts on this than one night's observation.

Playing other classes will make you that much more aware of their capabilities and will give you a greater respect for the people who are already skilled at the class. It will also make you better at your "main" class as you know what they're capable of. I like to think that's why I'm so good at finding/chopping spies It's very refreshing trying out different classes, especially on different maps where they may be more efficient than your main class.

I was having a blast (literally) play pyro without using the flamer, and just using the airblast/flaregun/fire axe
