Hot take: Friendlies dying is actually what makes friendlies so hilarious in the first place. The whole idea that you can party and dance with the enemy team with the chance of getting blown up into high hell isn’t so common in other games than it is here. That’s what makes being friendly enjoyable, it’s as funny as the killbind but with collateral damage
It's kind of common sense, idk why Voro keeps trying to paint the picture of the community looking down on the friendly killing or smth. Friendlies die all the time and it's what makes those rare moments of truce special when a friendly finally manages to convince a fellow enemy to do some weird quick fps comedy. Like I get that there are even rarer moments of entire servers going friendly and kicking the ones who break peace (because kicking players for stupid reasons is also funny), but realistically most mass friendly situations result in some projectile class blowing them all up because that's the punchline.
Being friendly includes doing funny ragdolls , tbh i don't understand these "friendlies" that rage whenever they are killed even when it was not from a serious player like , you know you are in a FPS game right ? There's a reason why Taunt Kills exist : to kill people in a funny way
@@itch433or killing the wrangler engineer and causing the lvl 3 to go nuts and kill everyone I did that once, me and my friend were fucking DYING of laughter
Hot take: When you get killed as a friendly, the moment you put anything in the chat complaining about the person that killed you, you are no longer friendly.
The phrase "Random crits are fair and balanced" was somewhat funny the first time i heard it, but it was overused by people who killed others with a random crit, and it went to the point where it lost meaning
heck not even just when they kill you. sometimes it's when you kill them or when they see you kill someone with a random crit. LIKE SERIOUSLY! SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE YOU FUCK!
The cheating being linked to private profile is honestly an almost excuseable offence imo. Since it is typically common to see private accounts cheating (based on my own experience) but people shouldnt use it as the foundational evidence someone is cheating, it is supplemental evidence at best. It should never be used as a determining factor
For me, I privated my account because i don't like showing too much information even if its not much shown anyway. I just don't want people to see what I'm doing 24/7 or suddenly find out that somehow someone knows where i live by just looking at my name etc.
@@lucasnlica737 lol lame excuse, you can literally just private your status online or offline and hide your game hours without even privating your whole account and the fact that most cheaters privated their accounts doesn thelp either, tahts why i usually block them so i will still know even if they privated their acc
My take has always been if someone is being friendly they are playing the game they want to and can go ahead but if someone decides to kill them that person is also playing the way they want to and should be allowed to mow down as many friendlies as they want.
dude I hate when they do that. when I was in a 2fort map I was helping my engi from like 7 spies who said they were "friendly" even tho they were just sapping thing and picking up then putting down the intel multiple times and voiceline spamming, then when I find and kill them they try and tell my entire team to kick me but my team didn't but thankfully i killed them enough to the point they just didn't go near intel as much and they left the engineers alone for a little bit until we won
for me the word "tryhard" was something i never understood, dude this is how I play the game, what do you want me to do? miss my shots intentionally? switch off my gamesense? after playing for years, this shit is etched into my memory at this point as for random crits: It's just your fate decided by Gaben, you cannot escape it, you shall accept it.
used to be really good at sniper, unfortunately it got to the point I couldn't enjoy the game how I wanted to enjoy it because I'd get kicked from servers or they would try to bully me off the server, it didn't work, obviously, but it was so annoying having people cry just because I was a bit better than them.
Id say yeah. If they're all stuck in spawn or obviously bad, i dunno toy with em little, do dumb shit for fun on purpose. Your foot doesnt need to be on the gas the whole match. Im not even that good and ill sometimes just stop fighting and watch my opponent flail for a few seconds. I get pubstomping is fun but if they can't do ANYTHING chill a little. Otherwise tho, its just salt so keep stomping lmfao.
@@mr.mcklockwork3828 I agree, and that's what I do also in games outside of TF2. If I see my opponents below my skill level or newbies, I let off the gas significantly or use it as a method of experimenting new things.
I once heard a guy call TF2 a pay to win game. I normally do not type in the chat, but i had to call him out on it. He had only played TF2 for 35 hours....
Here's a hot take: Pyro is not braindead. The class just has a few easily-abusable strategies which lead to easy kills, thus creating this 'braindead' stereotype.
tbh the only class I think most people can agree is really braindead is heavy, just because its mostly wm1ing for his gameplay while pyro has many different gameplay styles
In my honest opinion, pyro is genuinely the worst class in the game. He is incredibly easy to learn and to start with, but his skill ceiling is really limited. Pyro gets instantly deleted by any burst damage class, even a scout assuming they're even semi-intelligent. The only class pyro really even counters is Demo and Spy, but even then reflecting pipes isn't easy and spy has many anti-pyro weapons like the kunai, spycicle, dead ringer, and diamond back. Sure he can stuff ubers, but so can any class with knockback. He is the worst class to fight sentries with, and even his airblast is essentially useless one a soldier just whips out a shotgun. Thats why pyro is most certainly not braindead.
pyro has a high skill cealing and i have nothing against good pyros and pyro mains. What i hate is that if a completely new player picks up ANY OTHER CLASS, you can just ignore them and focus on either the objective, or killing the medic or the strongest enemy opponent, but if they pick pyro because pyro class has an extremely low skill ceiling you HAVE to pay special attention to the gybus player because he doesn't have to aim unlike with any other class. and aldough they are just as easy to kill as any other new player UNLIKE any other new player they are highly likely to do significant damage to you forcing you to retreat. Fight a newbie demo, sniper or scout and you won't lose a single hp and can carry on focusing on winning the game. fight a new pyro and you get tagged by flames and loose half your health and you have to retreat, or you get killed by the next player who otherwise would have had no chance against you. Pyro makes new players int an attention vacuum, without putting any effort they get easy damage, easy kills and you are forced to treat them above their skill level.
I think if the braindead players stop walking into the flames, and try to outrange the pyro that's running head first into a cluster of enemies, instead of complain, they'd die less also i learned through actually being better at aiming and tracking than my opponent pyros actually gives an advantage, so pyro isn't W+M1, you do have to aim to get more consistent damage, than just getting 1 kill and then dying after
hot take: friendlies do not ruin the game. if anything, they add that unique charm to the game. they just get a bad name from the toxic "friendlies" who want to kick someone because "tHeY KiLlEd mE WhEn i WaS BeInG fRiEnDlY" while true friendlies either don't give a shit or take it as a sign that now's not the time to be friendly and that it's game time
Mildy Hot take: turning an entire server friendly is when killing is justified. I Want to have silly interactions but kazotzky kicking around for 30 minutes without a single fight aint one of them
the class is broken , like literally your disguises sometimes break apart, the hit reg fucks you over, the Spy is arguably "worse sniper" and that spawn wall hack have caused a lot of bs. The game breaks spy main psychologically.
My hot take is that i love random crits, they are funny, everyone gets pissed off when they happen, and you get a dopamine rush when your screen lights up after killing an invis spy with a crocket.
I think people primarily use "tryhard" to refer to people that are taking the game too seriously, not people who are too good at it or something like that.
Agree with you. I think of situations like when all are dancing or doing shit on 2fort, and then there is the one sniper or spy that has to kill everyone. I dont bother the first few times. But at some point i get annoyed. If he wants to play seriously he can go to another server.
You realize he has the right to do whatever the fuck he wants? Killing friendlies is not like a serious crime or something like that, he has the right to mow down every friendly he wants bc he wants to play like that, it's a game... Why would you care if someone is killing you?
The thing with private profiles is that its hard to draw some credibility when everything is hidden. like who knows, they might be friends with a cheater, they might have people calling them out in their profile's comments that are now hidden, they might just have about 2 hours in the game and already doing flick shots and bhops that a script kiddie might aswell be doing, its rather unfortunate really.
I would have to agree, it’s alot harder to demonstrate to the other team that they have an cheater when you can’t just point out obvious giveaways and spectating usually is met by them hiding it like cowards. Obviously they are going to do everything in they power to not get caught, but still someone having an private profile dosent mean they are cheating, but if you happen to have to see their profile because of suspicion it makes it even more suspicious, but dosent guarantee chater
it is very easy to delete comments lol. its also very easy to farm game hours so thats not really a valid talking point too. if you want to know if someone is cheating, you will know for SURE from their gameplay and their gameplay only. detecting cheaters is very easy once you know how. it requires some common sense
@@Kowalskinator look, if i were a cheater that wanted to stay hidden the best way i could do that is by making everything on my profile public maybe except the friend list which already most normal people do. farm some game hours, and delete negative comments from my profile. and bam, i've tricked clueless people like you this easily with just my profile. you should never but never look at an profile for proof. unless if the cheater is publicly claiming that he is cheating on that profile. having a private profile as a cheater will only get you more suspicion which is stupid, when its really easy to make your profile look like a legit. thats what most real closet cheaters do. some people just want their privacy and keep everything private and thats their thing, it shouldnt be considered as "proof". You should only look for the *real* proof in someones gameplay.
@@kila3477i don't know man , sometimes it is easy to notice obvious cheaters like , soldier firing at you even when he is not facing you but sometimes the enemy sniper is using silent aimbot and no one notices it , even the enemy team doesn't notice it , is not that easy
I for one, love friendlies and what they bring to the game. But whenever they start complaining and calling people 'tryhards', they are NOT friendly and do deserve that mouthful of crocket
Okay but sometimes I just get a completely undeserved random crit kill on a cloaked spy or something insanely unlucky (for them) like that and am filled with such visceral remorse that I simply must apologize
This is a laid back chill version of the old I hate friendlies video xD It's a good choice to do it like this given today's climate people will take any type of satire as personal.
I agree with the private profile thing. Some people just like to have privacy. I'm somewhat new to TF2 and I main Sniper. I've been using snipers in many, many, many games for over a decade now, so I know the schtick. But getting kicked for just being good at the game is so frustrating because what if you're domming half the enemy team and someone just says, "Kick your cheater. His profile is private." Now, I'm a F2P. I can't afford cosmetics, so I couldn't defend myself. Just know this. If your profile is private, that's your business. You just like privacy. I think Karens from the internet has spread their culture over to the youth and the TF2 community.
I play TF2 to shut off my brain. Sure, anger rise sometimes because something ticks you off just enough, but somehow, someway, that is funny as hell to me. There is absolutely no reason for me to get angry at this game because most of the time, in any community sere I'm playing, I'm the one causing brain rot chaos in the first place. Hell even in pub, being an F2P, I am still chaos incarnate.
"The hours you spent on this game could have been used to develop a more practical skill" is a better insult in my opinion. Video games for the most part are just a fun distraction but nothing more I'm sorry to say. This ain't the Super Bowl or the Olympics. It's a casual pub match so chill out.
Yeah I think random crits are the opposite of balance (bigger damage = bigger reward) but I still find them funny as fuck lmao. I don't even care if I get hit or I shoot one they are just funny
no crit servers are the best all these tftoober just live off of the crits throw them in a your damage doesnt matter its all skill and most crumble its why that opinion is held so hard the only people who are immune to that is sniper mains and trolldgier
Hot take: pyro is not overpowered and its very unfortunate that w+m1 is the logical way to play, since it requires less skill for more reward. (Not saying its better than combo pyro, just saying it takes less effort for more consistent results)
the moment when you get within melee distance of that annoying unusual bedecked Sniper, miss your attack, and die to their OHKO crit melee. The urge to jump up to hackusations is soooo strong when you're not having a good day and can easily take the L in stride
somewhat agree with the private profile matter, but still, its an easy way to hide VAC ban quickly (iirc) so of course private profile is more suspicious.
I can feel for the people that complain about try hards. After working a few jobs consistently for a year, it’s hard to maintain a skill level akin to those who are able to play almost every day and I’ll admit it’s super draining to get home from a long shift and try to hop on tf2 to relax just to spend the whole time looking at a respawn timer because one guy on the enemy team is playing like his family’s life is on the line.
I like this series already. If I may drop my own take, I don’t much like the whole stigma against pyros, because yes, shocker, some of his playstyle takes time and practice to learn, as is the case for every other class. Airblasting arrows isn’t easy at all, and puff n’ sting requires that you get good with the flare guns. All that typically goes out the window and you get called a dirty w-m1 player
W+m1 isn’t even that bad, Scout can run away/mad milk or just do 2 meatshots Soldier can jump away or just kill them if they don’t airblast Pyro can airblast or counter w+m1 Demo can just bottle em or sticky spam Heavy mows them down easily Engineer has a sentry Medic can pop uber or have the person they are healing help Sniper can quickscope or jarate/bushwacka Spy can dead ringer or spycicle and amby headshot them If you can’t do any of this, it is quite literally a skill issue.
@@SamuelHelligins ok first, pyros can stuff an ubercharge with airblast. Second I have no idea why you’ve typed out a shopping list under a comment about how the pyro has more skillful gameplay than walking forward
I noticed that "ez" seems to be the hot new term tossed around more often than the Flying Guillotine, I didn't even knew what it meant at first, and the first time I saw it used knowing what it meant, the guy saying it had capped on dustbowl stage 1... on overtime... However, I do like saying it when my team loses, tends to lead to some funny responses.
Hot take: if you are friendly, but you intentionally go into the thick of it, or worse, interrupt someone's fight - you have no right to complain, your "friendly" status is automatically revoked.
Have to agree, was playing soldier yesterday and some annoying ass heavy used the holiday punched on me when I was trying defend the Intel when 2-3 players were pushing into our base. He had been doing his to other's too and they tried tell him if did it again we would just kill him.I got killed and we lost the match. The next round I would kill this guy if he came near to me and then he got mad and tried to vote kick me, calling me a 'friendly killer'. Some how the brain-dead morons believed him and I got kicked 8-3. Still cant believe that being 'friendly' just gives you free rights to kick some guy trying to play the game normally.
For me, it's not an insult, nor a compliment. It's just someone's opinion Like, I call myself a tryhard because I simply like to do what most would call tryharding (not trolling. I just like being as effective as I can). If someone calls me a tryhard, I don't really care. I tryhard in other games too (DOOM Eternal, Into the Radius VR, Plants vs Zombies)
@@bobertastic6541 it's another reason. Someone wants to have a casual match and can't even come out of spawn because you get destroyed by a tryhard and can't play the game. Some people just wanna have fun for some time they don't want to hyperfocus and learn every possible pattern to be able to live 10 seconds more and then die anyways. TF2 is a bit different because there's no ranked part of the game so everyone is in casual. But it applies to every game in general. You wanna get mad, go hyper focused or be dum dum? just go play ranked and leave the fun casual side alone 👍
@@TheLifeLaVita you can just requeue. A: I’m not that good at the game B: ‘casual’ means anyone can just hop in and enjoy it. That means anyone, of any skill level. If you say people super good at the game shouldn’t play casual then you don’t want casual, you want sbmm.
I don't mean to be "that guy", but the people who do these things are the same ones that have pronouns in name, try to be all buddy buddy and talkative in vc and chat when nobody cares, and generally are inhabitants of Super Weenie Hut Juniors. The kinds of people that would buy perks on a community server and get you kicked by admins. Keep it up voro, I feel like you're one of the last guys keeping the real spirit of tf2 and source games alive.
The one thing I don't understand is the "hot take" of people not liking random crits and apologizing about them. I'm unironically like this, because I don't like the idea that the game decides that neither me nor my opponent are allowed to use our skills alone, and we should expect to just die immediately instead. Even if the deal is that "you earned the crits by dealing more damage", it's still inherently random. Yes, you do earn more, but they're still not guaranteed, and are at least a bit too common in general anyways. The one way I'd be fine with it, is if they reduced the crit rate for ranged weapons. Melee weapons, maybe a tiny bit, but I _could_ see that being fine.
i think the only time saying tryhard is justified is when you are on a friendly server and someone is constantly killing other players without them even fighting back
The private profile thing is true but to a degree, majority of the cheaters I’ve ran into usually have they’re profile private so they can hide their ingame hours, or they usually have friends in the server and have it privated so no one knows. But to kick someone based off that entirely is reasonably stupid, but understandable because most cheaters aren’t loud.
I honestly dissagree with the last one, 9 times out of 10 the people i encounter with private profiles that act sus do just straight up cheat, might just be my shit luck with the game and who i got pared up against but yeah having a lot of in game experience with cheaters and seeing privated profiles so you can directly check their groups, comment messages you name it adds on, and lets be real the actual reason you private your profile or use a alt is so you dont get harassed on your main in game and if not that i aint got a clue what else
Oh this is going to be good. If you see this Vorobey, take the time you need to make your content because we love it, so don't pressure yourself too much 👍
Now random crits are not balanced or fair but I DO ENJOY THEM A LOT idk maybe have it be as a different category but I do enjoy it. Its like a comedic effect you know like something that supports that cartoony look of tf2 But yea I understand why people don't like them and I wouldn't cry for their removal just my 2 cents.
I did called peoples tryhard in tf2, but only the ones rushing the objective or killing friendlies in COMMUNITY servers. When I'm on community servers, I just want to play as long as I can when there is no time limits.
Been playing TF2 since 2016 and I never really cared for the whole Random crit thing. If I don't want random crits I'll play a server that doesn't have them if I go into a pub I know what to expect I mean its in the game duh lol.
Hot take: To people who complain about how sniper is unbalanced, sniper... is a sniper. His job is to literally take out opponents from far away. In conclusion, snipers are just doing what they were supposed to.
I always thought that "tryhards" are people who ruins the fun for the whole server, for not other reason that to get "victory" at the end If the match has people killing each other and you kill the only friendly in the match, you are not a tryhard If the match has 23 friendlys and you make the objective, you are ruining the fun, you are being a tryhard I know this is just like what sounsmith said in his video, but is just my opinion
The people who call someone, "try hard" confuse me so much. Does trying harder actually make them better? If I'm having an off day and try to force myself to play better, it doesn't work!
Oh boy, Vorobey is cooling something nice here. Expecting the next round of hot takes. I saw myself in one of those instances: once in a while, I apologize for a random crit, but I also happen to taunt when getting one, so, It balances out, I guess.
A pro player: *Snipes someone from up high on Highertower* The person who died 3 times to him: "Nice Aimbot sniper" The person's friend: "Yah bro u hacking"
the way vorobey speaks is very spicy, always has been but he's out here spitting some *TRUTH* with reason too bad the people who need to hear this probably never will
I use the Heatmaker because in some situations the silencer actually helps out a lot, especially in stealth positions. It only works if the enemy team refuses to communicate with each other though...
@@LeSpydrByteIf you play mini sentry on harvest I'll seriously focus you the entire game and you can be damn sure I'll taunt you after every random crit
What really pisses me of about TF2 are 2 things: Friendlies and That One guy who calls everyone a hacker. Look, i love being friendly and most of my heavy "gameplay" was just being hoovy, but there is a limit between being the only friendly and having an entire server being one. And the moment you just want to kill someone everyone gets mad at you and calling you out for "killing friendlies", like bruh. And don't get me started on that one guy. These guys, in my opinion, are the biggest idiots in this game. Like, nobody gives a crap about anything or anyone and you moron crying about something that might be true. Just accept the fact that you are not that good at this game and get your shit together. God, i love TF2 but sometimes i just want to play the game in peace.
Friendlies logic is actually funny: > "Don't tell us how to play this game! We can do what we want!!!" > "NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST KILL US IN A SHOOTER GAME!!! Y-YOU RUIN ALL THE FUN!!!" It's like you can do what you want until you kill friendly :D
I dunno if this is ironic or not but. Why is apologizing for sending someone back to spawn thru no skill of your own bad, but teasing them about it is okay? Genuine question.
Honestly it’s quite sad to watch people complain about how they are not having a good time even though they could either play something else or leave and play a different game or server
you think it's fun to have to switch to another server or match? they tried to play a game of TF2, it was ruined for them, they have all the right to complain. unless they're doing it for like 30 minutes straight and still aren't leaving
@@rightbehindyou9398 Oh no! A small inconvenience! It's almost like if they're not having fun they can turn the game off and do literally anything else Boo hoo
@@rightbehindyou9398 m8 it is Such a small inconvinience and you take it like it is world war 3! Like oh no, I am not having fun in this server, how horrible and time consuming it is to go to the top of the screen and queue for another match, the horror
the 'sticking spammer' line is always a stupid one, its like, how else you want me to use the weapon? if its used for traps, someone complains, if its used for attacking, someone complains
i love how vorobey is actually quite peaceful (in his talking ofc, he's playing a shooter) and is so calm about many things, but when he's sick and tired, he is keeps is calm voice on, and goes all out in an argument. he really articulates his points.
Vorobey the father of tf2 ngl, he never cried when there were any cheaters or if someone reported him as being one. Its just so to watch everyone around him crying and him just laughing at them like he made that one good prank on his teacher on 1st april.
Whenever somebody destroys me in a game, I don't think "Oh, this person's a tryhard", I think "Oh, I'm fucking garbage at this game". The only reason I ever apologize for a random crit is whenever I can tell the other person had a good chance of killing me, and the game just said *no* to them.
Good video! I personally find myself apologizing for random crits whenever I feel like I didn’t deserve the kill in the way that I got it, like a single crocket vs 2-3 rockets killing another soldier in a duel, since they weren’t able to fight back. But I do agree that complaining about random crits is a mute point when community servers exist.
вряд ли поумнеет, есть такие типочки которые будут доказывать что они правы до конца, хотя это не так. это как со стеной разговаривать, и к большому сожалению, таких гениев очень много
Печально то что по многим из этих причин я перестал играть в эту прекрасную игру. Было классно играть за инжа и оборонять точку, было здорово гонять за пиро-акулу и кусать всех ударом на целых двести двадцать вольт!
@@hazeeh9214 ну хотя бы часть может перестанет делать х*йню. Легче переубедить когда у тебя есть авторитет как у воробья и других ютуберов нежли когда ты нн и высказываешь это на пабликах.
Local crazy person here. I apologise for random crits if two things happen. Firstly if it ruins an otherwise fun fight and secondly because it is annoying.
I think being more suspicious of private profiles is valid. Cheaters almost always go private because they don't have enough hours in the game to be as skilled as they supposedly are or they don't want to expose the fact that they are friends with other known cheaters. I have thousands of hours in the game, if someone is suspicious of my skill, they can check my profile and see that I have been playing since 2014. If you aren't someone who knows about the technical details of cheating, then someone performing extremely good while having a private profile would be suspicious to any reasonable person. That said, I would agree that you shouldn't accuse people of hacking unless you do some research on what hacking looks like. And I can understand that you would have frustration when it is used to falsely accuse you often.
