Are you obsessive about anything when you play???

[cqbrules]

I asked this on another forum so I thought that I would post it here as well. I am a fairly obsessive person both in game and out and I was wondering what, if at all, do you obsess about while playing the game? It doesn't have to be anything that you do to improve the way you play.

For me, when I play Demoman, I can't leave the spawn area till I break my bottle. I'll keep hitting it against a wall (or teammate) till it shatters. Then I can leave and keep playing.

When I play spy, I always try to backstab the engie before I sap the sentry (except against ThaiGrocer cause I like the challenge).

When I play sniper in 2Fort, I have to snipe on the right hand side of the battlements or front door (looking towards the bridge). I won't shoot on the left hand side. :character0110:

If there is a grate camping demoman/pyro/soldier in 2Fort, I will always taunt him before I backstab him cause I think they are a waste of digital sperm :sperm: (No offence Dingo).

When I play scout in 2fort and I pick up the flag, I will always run up to the battlements to bonk the snipers before I run the intel across the top of the bridge. :fighting0040:

If Sife is playing for the other team I will always challenge his bottle to my fists....I usually lose but I get a kick out of it. :anim_38:

I always have a glass of iced tea when I play.

I do this exact same thing, but I don't think it ever breaks on a teammate's head. I hate it when I get what is apparently a plastic bottle that takes like a dozen smacks to finally break!

[Kilz]

hrm no not really... maybe after I get dominated... I'll die as many times as it takes making a bee-line for the person the got me.

[blahdan]

I always switch to my melee weapon and constantly press q to switch between that and my main weapon.

As a spy, I always hide in the same places on a map.

thats about it, i guess.

Ditto there. Especially if it's a sniper! I'll usually go spy and... :anim_01:

[.sf|BehavyuR]

Any time I'm on a map that has a setup time and I'm a Medic, I will immediately switch to my Ubersaw as soon as my Uber meter is full so that I can play at least two to three little ditties on the saw before the gates open. What can I say? I like to entertain my team before they die. ;)

As a Heavy, I will usually hit C>3 (the "Cheers" option) until I hear him say "SO MUCH BLOOD!" and then I will stop...at least until my team loses, at which point I will spam C>4 (the "Jeers" option) until the next round starts. "WHICH ONE OF YOU IS CRYING?!" :D

[Brandname]

When I'm playing sniper, one of the most gratifying feelings is when I dominate another sniper and then get backstabbed by him immediately afterwards. :D

I don't play TF2, but in CS I will constantly quickswitch/reload and do random twitches that are in no way necessary.

[CoolJon]

I'm kind of obsessive about checking the sewer exit in 2fort. I always hope to catch a spy uncloaking or something. Then I do this dance :party0045:. Yeah.

And as a medic, I never stop moving. I guess that's what you're supposed to do, but I'm really obsessive about it as a medic, cuz moving is the only defense medics have besides being blocked by teammates.

[PandaBear Assassin]

lmao I'm pretty sure you've never dominated my as sniper (Cause i'm just that damn good :D) But you've definitely got me as soldier and i've had to go spy to get revenge lol.

[Timmah!]

like that time on dustbowl when u and another sniper dominated me (and owned our team)...until I went spy and had a field day? Snipers - oh how I love that way you stand so perfectly still. :D

[Iron Lung]

The sight of an enemy medic fills me with rage :evilgrin0041: and I will chase his ass down or die tryin. I don't care if his buttbuddy soldier got me afterwards, he still has to go find an alternate source of health and the medic has to start ubering from scratch, I call that a win

[Prosthetics]

On gravelpit, when im on red I usually play heavy and will usually never leave the building B is in.

[Brandname]

Haha, I do feel like I have a big target on my back when I snipe. But hey, at least snipers don't get random crits, right? :D

I've noticed that lately

mainly when you and I defended B for 6 minutes all by our lonesomes

which is almost as awesome as me and bob defending A for an entire round as medic and engi, I think I got ubered 6 times.

Haha, not that you and Bob aren't great players, but it takes a special kind of team to get shut down by 1 medic and 1 engineer, lol.

[Timmah!]

Ubering an engineer in a pinch (especially after all his stuff gets destroyed) is friggin' awesome. It's like the ultimate revenge for him to get to go wrench the bastards that destroyed his setup, and then use all the metal from their fallen weapons to rebuild quickly.

[ShangoXG]

If im on Gravel Pit and our team has been pushed back to C point, i will 95% of the time stay on top of C no matter what, because almost always when im not there, we will loose within 2 minutes or so it seems, because nobody ever seems to bother going up there the majority of the time unless someone is capping it, "oh its not being capped, its not like 2 people would bother rocket jumping upt ehre at the same time or a scout could get up there....

And yea in CS:S i generally do random weapon switches for no reason cos i like the noises.

Oh, and i have a thing about always bein reloaded, even if im only missing 2 needles from the needlegun and i am healing a guy taking damage, i will always want to reload just incase those extra 2 come in handy...kinda obsessive about that.

[Irvine]

I do that in every shooter i ever play, i always have to stay reloaded. When i watch other people play i always say "reload" cause it drives me nuts lol, they probably get annoyed by me.

[hOoLiGaN]

here's some OCD: I have to make another post so I'm not at 459 before I leave work. I HATE 9's :anim_20:

[Frodo De Mar]

haha special, special ed...as in the opposing team

the only thing i cant stop my self from doing is always hitting tab really quick while i am playing to check scores and see who is dead and such

[XrazorX]

i absolutely cannot stand being dominated as sniper, and whenever it does happen, i usually dont stop playing until i RE-dominate the player that got me, only then can i stop playing.

i ALWAYS reload my SMG as sniper even if i shot one bullet out of it

as mentioned above i also have to break my bottle before leaving spawn

i always move back and forth as sniper even when no one is even in sight, i constantly keep moving for no aparent reason


lmao I'm pretty sure you've never dominated my as sniper (Cause i'm just that damn good :D) But you've definitely got me as soldier and i've had to go spy to get revenge lol


i totally have...that one time you came on 2fort caus it was empty lol didnt last long though and i think you got me back with a domination

[Frodo De Mar]

remembered another thing i always have to do. at the end of the round if my team lost, i always towards the other team while most everyone else is running away... i have to get myself killed for some reason.

[Iron Lung]

That reminds me, if I just spawned and the round is about to end in a loss I always go demo and suicide, nothing annoys me more then post game free-kills.

[Blonde]

I do the quickswitch obsessively too when I have some kind of downtime. The better I play (more important the game) the more I twitch and check every single square inch of space.

[PandaBear Assassin]

I don't think i'm obsessive about anything. However, when i'm playing as soldier and actually feel like being really competitive and going on one of my rampages, I like to listen to some old Korn in the background..."Blind", "Freak on a Leash", "Got Me Bad", etc.

[EpYx]

I smack every teammate as a "Hello."
I attempt to bhop, when I fail.
I attempt to groundstrafe, when I fail.

and lets see.

If timmah's playing. ill make fun of him for playing the Overpowered class.
or we'll make jokes at random overpowered things. like viagra.


if jokerz is playing and im on the other team. i really dont care if i go 1 kill and 999999999999 deaths, if that one kill is jokerz, with a bat. its all good.

and i spray my spray EVERYWHERE.

as a sniper i quickswitch alot, and never let my shots charge, that way you get more points, for more, smaller headshots on the same person.

oh. and im obsessive when it comes to spamming the forums.

That's the right way to play sniper, but you actually only get points when you kill the person with the headshot.

[Mr. Happy]

If I'm a blue demo on an AvD map then I always blow myself up after drinking from my bottle. It's good luck! (but only if ur team watches)

When playing I chain smoke :/

[Timmah!]

I'm pretty sure ... you're wrong. A headshot by itself is 1 point, kill or no kill. And like any other class, killing someone is another point - so you get 2 points if you HS kill someone. But this is just for the Valve stats and not HLstatsX.

I believe the only way hlstatsx knows that a headshot is registered is by a headshot kill.

But staying on topic...

As an engy I will never build a gun in the default position. I have to turn it.

If Frodo is on my team, it is a must that we crouch-walk through our whole team during setup time.

Must trash talk any TKO members in the server.

I feel like I have to say something in my mic before each round for some reason. Most of the time just random syllables, "lets do it", or "yeeeeah". Oh! and I have to say something like "Push the f*cking cart" on goldrush even though each person knows exactly what to do.

As a scout I have to do difficult jumps in the map even if it was more beneficial to me to stay put.

[PandaBear Assassin]

How do you do this? I dont' play as engi that much.

[.eric]

Your secondary fire will rotate any of your buildings 90 degreeez.

Wow you've got to be kidding me. I knew it was going to be something horribly simple like that. Thanks!

[.sf|BehavyuR]

Ah, here's one of my tendencies that'll actually help anyone who reads it and plays on my team. As Medic, while I will heal everyone that is within my reach and that won't get me killed, I will usually only become (as Iron Lung put it, I believe) your "buttbuddy" if you're a person that I personally know plays well or if you carry the TKO or .sf| tag in your name; these are the people that I find usually make good use of, and appreciate, my help as Medic. People low on the board with un-tagged names and no reputation with me personally rarely see an Uber from me...kinda snooty of me, I guess, but whatever, it usually works out.

Honestly I still think I'm right Timmah. I'm fairly (~99%) certain that a headshot will only net you an extra point if you kill the player, in which it gives you the point for the kill + a point for the headshot. A non-kill headshot won't give you any points.

http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Points

It's not directly from Valve, but a lot of people put in a lot of effort to get the figures on tf2wiki, and they seem to be pretty much in line with my experience playing as a sniper. Maybe someone else can back me up here?

Haha, I have definitely noticed this!

I also do the constant quickswitch thing. No idea why. And I also tend to like rocket jumping too much for my own good, just because it's fun. I do it when it's probably a better idea for me not to.

You and ur damn "death from above" rocket jumping. I'm tired of you killing me...Stop now please. lol

One headshot = 1 point.
One headshot kill = 2 points.
Heavies are awesome for racking up points. continuous WEAK headshots. gets you points every time, eventually it gets old, and you just kill him.

but yea, just "critical" (headshot) is 1 point, for a sniper.

I just went and tested it out on the server. This isn't true. You get 0 points for a headshot that doesn't kill.

[Frodo De Mar]

HAHA yeah! crouch-walk ftw and it helps with your sneakyness.

At least you get the fact of knowing the other guys face hurts.


Oh god i cant wait till they bitch the snipers are overpowered.

imagine 2 full charged headshots to kill someone.

Oh god, that would be an epic failure on Valves part.

[ditship]

Most of the time after I start up TF2 I join the 2fort server and play sniper while I smoke a cigarette.

NOTE that I do not condone smoking, playing 2fort...or playing sniper.

and I spam voice commands as much as I can

[Enlightened Fool]

Whenever I'm spy I always try to sneak into the other teams' spawn(on the ones that have a hiding spot), and watch the death info thing(top right) while waiting for a bunch of them to die. After some time where none of them die, I go in to stab a bunch in the back. Or if there's a mass of them that just died, then go in anyways.
I sometimes try the stab-the-engie first thing, but I've gotten quicker at sapping then stabbing before the second wrench hit, so why bother other than for bragging rights. Either way, as long as you take them out, it works.

As a sniper I do the CSS thing- fire then pull out meh knife, then the rifle again. IDK if it works the same way in TF2 as it does in CSS, but it is/seems quicker than reloading if you can do it fast.

As a demo I always try to find what would seem the most impossible way for my remote nades to reach their base(sg's, tele's, etc.), like above the corner of a roof thats around a corner, or somewhere else(not explaining this well).

For being a scout I just spam-run to the cp, try to figure a way to get in being sneaky. I don't try to kill as much as when I play the other classes.

As for pyroing I try to get behind a bunch of enemies w/o being seen, but not bc I use a backburner.
I try to ignite and ax-ting. them, see how many I can get.

[The Spyro's A Pie!]

In the pregame setup I have a tendency to move my mouse in a semicircle, giving the appearance that I am bobbing my head.

As a Medic I will usually choose on person to heal and continue healing them until either of us die. I am also guilty of leading people to believe they will get an uber after setup is over due to the fact that I usually begin charging on the nearest person at the beginning of a game.

As a Heavy I will rev up my gun around almost every corner, even if I'm traveling back to my own base. I will also spy check people even if they have demonstrated that they are not spies. When I face off against a sniper, I will duck at random times, hoping they are aiming at my head. If they are, their shot will miss.

As a Spy I will always leave my spawn room as a friendly unit, allowing me to survey the battlefield without alerting my presence to the enemy. Occasionally I will forget to re-disguise, leading to a quick death once I'm in enemy territory. Only time I don't disguise as a friendly is when I am defending the last cap on Badlands, as the entire spawn consists of windows.

As an Engie, my building order is almost always Tele Entrance - Dispenser - Sentry - Upgrade Sentry - Tele Exit.

When in-game, I will sometimes shout random TF2 quotes and people's names. I will also replace "Dispenser" with "Respenser" in any of the Engie quotes that I say aloud, but not for anyone else. I will always shout for a dispenser (X>5) at least once per match. If I die by a crit attack, I will usually yell at my computer about how lucky the person is and how if he didn't crit, he would be dead instead of me. I also have a bad habit of holding down the talk key longer than needed, causing people to sometimes hear me talk to myself. This especially happens after a medic dies before being able to uber me.

lol thats BA

[Phearr]

Pressing tab all the time
Switching weps
Pressing E constantly when i dont need a medic

[EpYx]

Spraying my spray, everywhere. To see what people say.

I always jump around corners as a heavy.
i always jump when i shoot rockets as a soldier.
i always smash my keyboard when i get dominated by pyros.

gg.

baii :]

[XrazorX]

and i just thought of this one,

i cant pick a class that already has more than 3 people on it or i feel totally useless.

[elemental00]

and i just thought of this one,

i cant pick a class that already has more than 3 people on it or i feel totally useless.

I do the same thing....plenty of times I want to go snipe (practice cause I suck) and there are already 3.....or pyro..or engie...bah

[baller]

Lol at the quick switch. also do that for the same reason shang does. i like the noise lol

another thing is when i buy Nightvision i keep turning it on and off because the sound usually bothers other people lol

most the time i throw smokes at people when FF is on. (specialy if its the person trying to bring people to rush so it will slow him down lol)

buying all nades. its the first thing i do. cuz i hate just having a smoke and a flash or something like that.

[Timmah!]

Same here, but I'm usually one of the first 3 to pick a team, so that's rarely an issue. But when I first join, if my team doesn't have a medic, I always go medic and question the entire team how they expected to win without a medic.

[elemental00]

im pretty neourtic in general.... but i definitly try to set fire to everything that moves.. friends ..foes... i spy check even if i see your melee weapon out. its just a habit now... i ALWAYS jump out of the second spawn point on 2fort. i, more often than not, start off as engie..survey the playing field, and if i think the D is good.. ill change it up

i continually spin around to check my back.. now more so with all the backburners running around. ..there is more..but im sleepy haha

[RoqueJa]

As a medic after I get my ubercharge I'll usually have about 15 seconds left before the start of the round- I always crack my knuckles during this time.

I also usually refuse to heal idiots that think damage healing charges ubers faster during setup and stand right next to me screaming for a medic when the health locker is 5 ft away...
