Team Fortress 2

Excellent work on the Grey Mann model.

The Winglet made an original entry for the Saxxys this year (not a very good one, in my opinion though.) But he also edited this previous vid of his to be an entry, and it's still quite hilarious!

And wow, that robot one was. A shame it's not too explained how they became sentient, but it's a good depiction of the dillemma they're in regardless.

I got my new computer running and for the first time I'll have a computer that actually runs TF 2 really good. Like reliably so. I cannot wait to actually get back into the game.

Holy shit, the voice-acting in this short is amazing:

I don't believe it. It's like the actual voice actors. Saxton Hale is rather off-putting in comparison (both in model quality and voice), but this is still the highest-quality Saxxy video I've seen yet.

They must have forgotten to prevent GRU and Buffalo Steak from stacking in the race.

Seriously, though, that's the best one yet. Who might beat it?!

Winner of Best Drama 2014.

Man, some of these Saxxy Entries are really good. It's a shame that I can't vote on them yet, as they aren't appearing on my Queue list at all.

I cannot get a connection to a server. I've looked all around the internet for answers, and none of them work. I've now determined that it may not be so much a problem with TF 2 itself not having access to servers, but Steam not being able to reach them.

I deleted Clientregistry.blob in both the TF 2 folder and in the Steam folder, I deleted and reinstalled TF 2, I verified that my firewall is not blocking the program, I tried manually connecting to a server, I ran Steam in Administrator mode, and neither TF 2 nor Steam can see any servers online at large.

I did manage to get some server addresses to show up thanks to having a friend online right now (and some servers already in my Steam favorites but not in my TF favs?), but they're all showing as "not responding" and won't connect.

Your having Steam Server Problems too? I thought I was the only one! However, only the Servers in the Server List aren't showing up, I'm not having any of the other problems your having.

I just go out and go back into Team Fortress 2. It normally works, but not always...

Oddly enough I had problems with the servers last night; everyone's ping skyrocketed and the lag got bad. Some of the players though it was Valve getting DDoS'ed.

It wasn't enough to stop RED from getting a 4-0 shutout on Fastlane, though.

It's been a few months since I noticed.

After I posted, I tried deleting and reinstalling Steam, but I forgot to back up my Steamapps folder, so I have no games right now. And Steam still can't find any servers.

The only time I've ever had issues with servers is that occasionally all of Valve's pubs go down for no reason.

But after the last few updates, nothing is really lost in that regard.

Yeah, I got plenty of lag last night as well. Everyone's ping was in triple digits.

I just can't get a response from any server at all.

.+1 for "that voice acting was boss"

I think the Heavy was actually using official voice clips, though.

The Scouts, Medic, and Saxton Hale were custom voices. Every other voice (Heavy, Soldier, Engineer, Demoman) was just from the game.

That was the best one I've ever seen.

I find the Scout's voice easy to do well. Most all attempts at imitating the character's voices nail the Scout, but some of the others leave something to be desired. Observe this video, where everybody is voice-acted:

"Mr. Hale, I have a question. How is that even allowed?"

Spy's walking leaves something to be desired, but I loved that meta-gag part way through.

So accurate it hurts.

Yeah, I really liked that one too.

Here's one I liked (It may be NSFW):

That was creepy.

What the fuck.
