    Where are they now?

     

    tf2: dead

    csgo: dead

    everything else: dead

     

    tf2 killed by poor decision making by higher ups and refusing to change, results that had clear consequences way back in 2019 that proved to be a pivoting point in the community, had anyone stepped up and put their foot down and said “this is what we need” things maybe could have been different, now the community is a shell of it’s former self.

    I wasp 13 years old when I first joined a xenogamers server in 2011, my first love and passion was counter strike source, I am now 26 years old and coming up on 13 years as a member, i transferred from the css division around 2012 to tf2 and i have been there since, i have always watched and rarely been involved in the community as I prefer to stay away from clan politics but it’s just sad to see the state of complacency and incompetence, granted everyone moves on and lives will be lived, but there should have been a safeguard to pass the torch, i could not tell you who is even staff anymore for the servers. At this point there is no recovering what has been lost, I just wish I could have done more for the community when there was still time for a change.

    I can't tell this is a shitpost or serious

    I usually avoid interclan politics and drama, but I could see this blowing up in the wrong direction pretty quick, my opinion doesn't matter much though since im not active on the servers or discord anymore.

    I think its safe to say the tf2 economy and community is borderline dead with the latest update lol, long term atleast, short term it looks good on paper, but a month from now the game will have less than 20k players and slowly die 🙂

    We can occasionally muster a strong pop for a few hours if we get a happy medium between a map that doesn't suck complete dick and a map that people don't think is commonly "overplayed" 

    In my limited experience, the server fills up when the map is on a b-tier map, from there like four people will join and usually none of these people are actually playing the game, but 4 people is enough to draw in a few more people, resulting in a population of anywhere from 8-12. At this point, people start to kinda actually play the game, there's enough people that you're not completely wandering around an empty map without seeing anyone else and from here the server starts to retain people since there's actually a reason to stick around. 
     

    This is usually eventually lost when someone for some reason absolutely feels it necessary to start a rally to go to one of our abysmal maps. I don't mean bunker or duketown, I mean our maps that are known to commonly cause frame issues or that contain numerous visual glitches. After that, population usually at least halves, and from there people trickle out until nobody is left. Interestingly from what I've seen, this does not happen transitioning to maps that people deem "overplayed", although it seems initially about as hard to populate those maps as the bad ones. My best guess at why this is is that more people willing to put up with them if they've already joined since their game isn't shitting the bed, and likelihood is that the map changes soon anyway. 

    tldr yeah game dead
