I know strange PDA's are a thing but can you rename the stock PDA?
I know this is kinda stupid and not specific to tf2, but how often do you speak to ppl you've friended just to ask if they want to play or something? I feel stupid but I'm too shy to ask ppl to play with me lmfao
For example I have this one friend (literal steam friend, not friend like buddy) who friended me way long ago cuz we played a few good rounds tg. This was months ago and we didn't even speak during the game and we haven't spoken since but I always see him online and sorta wanna play tg but I feel shy to ask
the alert is so annoying
ive been told that they are holiday restriction cosmetics that can be used outside of their holiday, and ive been told they are just a fancy tag, can someone give me a real answer?
I have premium account and when I try to put the scrap the game doesn't find it even tho I have it. Is it a bug or something?
This is not the first FPS game I've played but it IS the first MnK FPS I've ever played. So overall I don't have a lot of experience w a mouse. I have about 100 hours on the game, with like 90 of them being on med
I am an awful sniper, and I'm wondering if this is normal for beginners. Because everyone says it's just 'clicking heads' but I just can't seem to manage that lmao. Makes me sad cuz I used to have a pretty wicked aim back when I played cod on my console. What should my sensitivity be? I can't even tell if it's too high or too low
I've downloaded the hud but i can't quite put it ingame yet, plz help
i cant find how to get it, it isnt in the steam market, and buying through a 3rd party site seems kinda sketchy.
I have upgraded my account yesterday and I have bought Mann up ticket but I can't find anyone. Is it ok? And if yes can someone play with me? (https://steamcommunity.com/my/)
so i was playing today and i was wondering if i was still new, i got my first australium, some taunts, some sick cosmetic loadouts, and 141.4 hours.. so am i still new to tf2 or have i grown up?
(EDIT: OFFERS ARE NOW CLOSED. SORRY.)
I'm also planning to multiclass because just doing one class would get old. On a side note, I also played tfc for a few months because tf2 wouldn't run on linux.
New player here with about 30 hours. Tried most of the classes, and even with traditional "beginner" classes like pyro and soldier (i even got the noob combo black box + battalion's backup from random drop) and nothing was clicking.
Then I got widowmaker from a random drop, decided to use it with the gunslinger I got from the achievements and... idk I just suddenly got good. Having an infinite ammo shotgun with the ability to spawn a tactical distraction unit (mini-sentry) just is so nice.
It's weird to me bc the battle engie is often seen as quite a advanced class by the community
Its says that my account is not allowed to do [Thing], This is only a problem in tf2, in other VALVe games i can type in chat, Why?
PS: no, i dont have VAC bans
i just joined a casual game and got this hat, i thought you couldnt get hats for free?
Edit: apparently game really likes me since i got another cosmetic just an hour later
So i recently got the swissmass sweater war paint from the christmas socking and i putted it into spys knife but it doesnt show it when im in game, first i thought it was because my dxlevl was 81 but i changed it to 98 though it still doesnt show. It shows in my steam inventory but not in game.
Is there anyway to fix this, it would be helpful
So Tf2 will randomly start to stutter when I open it. Other times it would work pretty fine with no fps drops but usually when I boot my system and try to launch it, it will stutter like crazy the only fix I currently know is just restarting the whole system but is there anything that is causing this problem that I can do ?
I have a decent laptop with 16gigs of ram and rtx4050 so I dont think the hardware is causing any problem
I'm thought of reinstalling the game but the loading times and performance leave alot to be desired. Also, I'd really love to bind the loadout and building commands for convenience. Thank you!
I'm asking you this question because I'm doing a challenge which consists of having all the weapons in TF2.
Note: you can include subclasses but I really wanna know. I’ve been with this game for 2 years and I desperately need a definitive loadout for my classes. (Note that I am a big fan of most classes asides from Pyro and base Demoman. I main Engineer and I like playing both offensive and defensive as him. I also main the Gunspy and Demoknight subclasses. But loadouts for any class is fine)
Also. I mean a full load out, not just small bits of one. All 3 weapons per load out please.

I only began playing 2 days ago, I figured I would just knock two birds with one stone in my post.
I know that one way is by getting 11 Engineer achievments (i have only about 8 i think), but i am wondering if you can also get it through random weapon drops
Disregarding a players skill, which class is typically best to kritz? And I mean I'm sort of thinking between heavy, soldier, or demo. Or a pyro maybe.
is it normal to have a fuckton of assists on him? like even more than kills
Any tips and recomendation?
edit: so all of them
