What exactly are people upset about? Other discussions on this topic appear to mostly involve people who already know what’s wrong. Something about new player experience and bots?
some assholes are running mass bot farms that join matchmaking and ruin servers with aimbots
this has been running for several years now
What could possibly be the point of doing such a thing?
lulz
Don’t overthink it.
Bots, there’s millions of bots and basically nothing has been done for years about it.
The game is dying, the vast majority of players are bots that idle for items.
It would be okay if they were idle bots, they’re bots using cheats that go into random lobbies to ruin the game.
Cheater bots only make up like 1% of the bots in tf2.
But they make up enough of the population to make it highly likely to run into one in a public match
Bots are bad again, to the point that you can’t even votekick them

It’s a free to play, 20 year old game.
What devs ?
Some poor Indie company called Valve.

If you mean Portal 64 you’re misinformed at best

If valve is still going to release new crates that they make money off of they should at least work on the game enough to keep it playable.
Why were you down voted lol
Because that’s not how Valve operates.
There are still devs who work on TF2, they just don’t know how to address the bot problem without a lot of investment to overhaul the matchmaking system.
Because the answer is obviously Valve.
Lemmy becomes a lot better if you disable comment votes lol
Coz gamerz! 😆
Big corporate (Valve) is behind it. Not sure why people expect something good to happen. A business is gonna business.
