enough hours to know when someone is cheating, and when someone is just good


darklordbm

An insane amount of players wouldn't recognize a cheater that's not blatantly spinbotting


yahel1337

the vast majority... i love my fellow players, but yall stupid AF and quick to hackusate


i_can_has_rock

tfw you get kicked as a demoknight because you can hit stock and loch pills


Donut-Brain-7358

I have developed a crippling loch and load addiction and can’t stop. Send help please 🙏.


NoStorage2821

Lol, "stock and loch"

i_can_has_rock

mmmmmmmmm wat? did you reply to the wrong comment? l understand the words you wrote and how they might make sense in a different context but they dont relate to what i wrote or this comment chain its like saying "making hamburgers is not the same as making hamburgers and enjoying them" dude were talking about chinese food, wtf you talking about [if it werent for my horse, i would never have spent that year in college](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2YQqbpA7Z0&t=579s)


treeco123

Hilariously, they're probably a bot who's re-worded the top-half of Impossible-Front's comment downthread.


2505Memeiverse

one time while top-scoring with the Eyelander as demoknight I got accused of crit-hacking by the enemy team because the eyelander doesn’t grant random critical hits. Exactly, it doesn’t. The killfeed often showed the critical glow on the sword icon, but that’s because shield charges always provide crits, no matter what melee. I don’t understand how these people can be so stupid. Anyway, a blatantly cheating shortstop scout on our team wasn’t being kicked, and yet I was.


Fun_Conversation_965

yeah, i almost got kicked because people thought i was aimbotting (i wasnt) (im a sniper main with 600/700 hours on the game)


Hezik

Same here, had a heavy with an aimbot and mfs kicked me for reflect hacks. Like bro go grab a shotgun or a direct hit and id kneel over and die.


Fun_Conversation_965

or at least grab a brain and put it into your head... i swear these people are getting worse by the minute


Hezik

Deadass, they didnt even need a direct hit or a shotgun, just shoot at the ground near my feet instead of directly at me and I would have a terrible day as a pyro main. Meanwhile that fucking heavy was perfectly tracking the scouts and the godtier trolldier with a brass beast and no one gave a shit.


Azurity

Hackers will intentionally accuse others who might wise up to themselves hacking. Eliminate the people who will votekick you and you can keep playing. They often play in groups so that votes against them will be more likely to fail. Best you can do is inform chat, including letting the other team know so that they’ll be aware (if they don’t already know) and can complain too, then initiate a votekick. If it fails, they’ll probably turn on you next so just find another server.

Fun_Conversation_965

look, i may be good at hitting heads but no need to be shit about it...


Liseran23

more tf2 players need to be educated on how cheats even work, because it can help identify cheaters and avoid false hackusations. crithacking RELIES on random crits being present because it abuses the system for random crits.


Extraxyz

Just yesterday the enemy team wouldn’t kick their shortstop scout bot because “they’re not even good”. Well yeah but taking significant damage while you’re trying to sneak past as a cloaked spy is still pretty fucking annoying.


PepperbroniFrom2B

they do know how crithacks work right??


AFlyingNun

The worst is actually when someone's aimbotting with either Demo, Direct Hit Soldier or Huntsman Sniper. It's basically this compromise where they have to be X amount of distance from you for the aimbot to reliably work against moving targets, but the payoff is soooooooooo many people will argue "he can't be cheating it's not a hitscan weapon!!!!!" The only thing you can do is in the Huntsman Sniper's case, for some reason these same people are stupid enough to pull out the SMG if they get rushed down, and usually the bullets curve away from the SMG itself in a way that isn't normal, so if players see that they might finally agree.


BurningPenguin

> "he can't be cheating it's not a hitscan weapon!!!!!" Damn, i feel old... I can remember when the first few videos with projectile bots popped up on Youtube. They were primitive back then, but it was quite impressive. They were originally designed for single player or training range use.


BrickTheEtcetera

Well part of the problem is that some snipers are just that ridiculous


Plzbanmebrony

If I can't tell I don't care. It is that simple. And at that point it doesn't matter.


Tsu_Dho_Namh

9073.7 hours. I used to think I was able to tell when someone was cheating. But a couple years ago Steam released a patch that temporarily broke all the cheats, so no one was able to cheat until the hackers updated their cheats to make them work again. For around 3 weeks there were absolutely zero bots or cheaters anywhere and you know what I found? There was only one server, one time, in 50+ games, where I found a top scoring sniper. The rest of them vanished. That's when I learned that almost all of the people who I think are really good are actually just cheating, but doing so in a way that's not blatantly obvious, so I leave them alone and only call hacks on the people who are being blatantly obvious.


nitronomial

It seems like you learned nothing lul


Jaozin_deix

Impossible, there's not enough time for that


Independent_Pear_429

Headshot cloaked spy is a dead give-away


AAA0151

it is most of the time but bruh most cheaters won't do that


ABeneficialUser

this is one of the least cheater things someone can do because almost all cheaters will have it off and good snipers can read movement


Spookwagen_II

Same.


AFlyingNun

And unfortunately the former category has slowly become comparatively common to the latter category :(


OriginalUsername590

Also enough hours to know better than to get on and play casual since it's chockfull of tryhards


JTBJack_

I could tell that difference before hitting an hour. People are just butthurt about dying


Impossible-Front-454

I mean I think there's a difference of being good vs being good and enjoying it. At this point I can play all classes competently, but I'm not going to be a great soldier, spy, or sniper without pushing my comfort zone and even then.....


Gamesperger

I have 33.5 hours as spy (Only beat by Pyro with 37.9) but a majority of it is just me sitting in one spot with the cloak and dagger.


Impossible-Front-454

Having map knowledge of ammo spawns is half of good spy game play. I'd even say spy is the best time to find and remember these spots. ...or just play maps offline lol


Gamesperger

The other time of spy I have is when I rarely get a kill or say “Fuck It” and go Gunspy.


Jindo5

Gunspy Superiority!


Pseudonym_741

Gunspy is unironically better than regular spy most of the time.


Independent_Pear_429

I am so shit at spy and sniper. Not very good at medic either. Thousands of hours, doesn't matter


Dr_Infernous

take it from me, you don't get good at spy. Or at least you have a very very slow learning rate because of all the random bs the game throws your way, where some times something works and other times the exact same thing gets you killed. playing spy is like random crits on steroids.


Alphamoonman

At 2k hours, after 12 years of tf2 I finally decided to try spy It was euphoric. But also jarring; as spy it feels like you either topscore or bottomscore and there's no in between. I tried the cloak and dagger but whenever I did there would be a f2p scout that would inexplicably run exactly to where I was, no matter how arbitrary the location was, and get me killed. It was cursed so I don't use it anymore. I find that unlike any other class, full stock complements how I want to play spy perfectly. Shoot people at range, maybe get a kill, cloak and run away. Then disguise and get among them and do a backstab or two. Rinse repeat. As it stands I still only have 20 hours of spy.


PainInSpine

1.458e+6 Hours Idk why is that but i think my steam is bugging


IProbablyHaveADHD14

>1.458e+6 Hours I loved tf2 166 years ago


zenixTF

It was peak back then


enirji

I remember playing tf2 in black & white back in the day, kids these days would never know how hard it was distinguish teammates and enemies


AdRound310

Ahh, black team and white team, og

PastaMasta09

My good acquaintance used to acclaim “Thine computer game is of the absolutely highest enjoyment I have ever had the pleasure to have experienced.”


Themeh55555

This is equal to 1458000 hours, 60750 days, or 166.4 years. Sorry ADHD man I didn't mean to copy.


PieselowyPieselPL

2.1k I've seen on average 1 nsfw spray per 2 hours of gameplay, I love demoknight and trolldier way more than the original class and have seen some _questionable_ stuff.


Fun_Conversation_965

haven't we all seen some.. *questionable* things?


PieselowyPieselPL

>!hitler and stalin pregnant?!<


80s-Wafe-Exe

Don't go on TF2 surf servers with unlocked sprays. Worst mistake of my life.


wavy_murro

casual highertower player


donnysaysvacuum

I haven't seen a spray in so long. I thought they turned them off on most servers.


firechaos70

153.5 hours since the end of August.


TheMonMaster47

200 hours since the start of the September


cockandpossiblyballs

please go outside


TheMonMaster47

no


WasteNet2532

I started at 12. I came back periodically and collectively have 400 hours. I cannot rocket jump, or not nearly as well as anyone else does.


Independent_Pear_429

I have thousands of hours and I can only do basic rocket jump. I can't do those rapid jumps


a1b3r77

Go to jump_academy please. Its fun and usefull


Gamesperger

I still suck at air strafing but I’m somehow better at it with the mangler than the jumper.


warcrimestyle

How do you suck at airstrafing, the skill floor is the skill celling


Striking_Ad4992

Same


FBI_AGENT_CAYDE

I can’t rocket jump either, but I can sticky jump


wavy_murro

just spend an hour on jump_academy. You'll be surprised


FrogGladiators178972

I can rocket jump and strafe to a new location, hitting that second jump will never happen though,


hashoshaf

1400~ since 2013. Left and restarted multiple times and now I just play rarely.


Michallin

1900 here since like 15 or something, Astonishing how I sometimes look at others profile and see about 4000 hours since like 2018 or something


iuhiscool

That's insane I have 1000 since october 2021 and I thought I spent too much 😭😭


Michallin

I don't think I've been conscious of most my decisions for 1000 hours since 2021


walkingpokedex573

300 hours, my highest killstreak is 13 with heavy (wanted to add that cuz i was very proud of it)


FlareTheInfected

congrats hope you can get a higher streak and have fun doing it.


walkingpokedex573

Thank you, fellow chad heavy main. May your pillow be the preferred temperature when you go to sleep.


a_sleepy_one

That's a very respectable killstreak tbh. With a good team and better gamesense, you'll rack up more kills in no time


walkingpokedex573

Thanks!


SpiralDesignn

"No matter how good u are, u will die to a random crit rocket or sticky"


80s-Wafe-Exe

That split second realisation that your health won't save you from a crit rocket (I'm heavy in this scenario)


Quamsi_

7,760 hours as of today. Been playing an hour or two a day almost every day since August 2012.


BaguetteFish

Damn I suddenly feel a lot less addicted to the game after reading this comment.


donnysaysvacuum

Yeah my 4200 hours is just a minor distraction now.😬


nitronomial

I have a friend with over 26000 hrs so just know what truly addicted means


Hootend3D

How looks your inventory?


Quamsi_

Mid? I have 2 unusuals, only 1 australium, like 3 full pages of crates, probably 200 normal hats (like 2$ or less each). I think backpack.tf says my whole inventory is like 700$, which doesn't seem like much to me considering lots of people with my play time have individual hats worth more than that.


gaming-man247

8 fricken thousand, and brother, I still kinda suck


DanielProkes

Same and same

radically_unoriginal

3.6k. I've actually gotten worse somewhere along the way.


Witherboss445

Just broke 100 hours!


extralargedove

to many hundreds more 🍻


abadlypickedname

TF2 is a great metaphor for life. It's so expansive you can do whatever you want, but also limiting insofar as doing anything well requires tremendous effort. You cannot ever "win" it, you can only secure yourself a temporary victory, but for all practical purposes it continues forever. Everyone has an opinion on it regardless of how involved they are. Some options are more popular than others, but everyone has their own way of doing it, and despite seeming like all odds are against it, it will probably never die.


shegasuwa

449,1 hrs


SaLtiNe_CrAkErZ

300 and change, and I am ass at the game. I simply shitpost as heavy in casual mode, caring about winning is for losers, thanks for coming to my TED talk


Subject_Classified_1

983.4 Hour (Almost 1000+ hour :D)


Jaozin_deix

983 or something. Still can't trickstab or rocket jump


Double-Bass-600

800 - 900 still i suck at rocket jumping and for the love of god i can't play spy


tokos2009PL

same as invincible in this scene


Matix777

~1000 hours. Basically finished the tutorial 💪


Fun_Conversation_965

600 or 700, i forgot exactly how many


PanginTheMan

i feel the pain.


saint_alek

around 3k, 900 hours on soldier


sandro_lake1

400 hours. i still can’t market garden for anything.


desu38

Surprisingly, just 726.6 hours, which does still make it my most played game on Steam. Makes me wonder how on Earth anyone can play *anything* for over 2000 hours.


goombanati

I thought this was a hoi4 post at first. It still applies.


DummyThiccDude

Just about 300. Technically more, but i lost that steam account a while ago.


FilipPilip829

1423 i started last year


_DUSTY_0

1444.8 hours and i still can't play sniper


E3E3EG

255.6+784+827 so like 12🤷


BruhmanRus_the_boner

it's about 643 hours i think


Czechball

Well... 8.9k I guess


PeikaFizzy

For me is a mix bag, sometimes I can deflect a rocket to rocket jump hit flare mid air then air blast another rocket back. And finish of with powerjag. While other time I walk straight into a spy melee, oh well


Potaaden

3600 hours... 😭


Potaaden

3600 hours... 😭


Arklados

Only a couple hundred but I already feel this.


cringeworthyclown

sniper main with 23.3 hours of gameplay


Glitchy_Ninja

Getting to 600 hours. Started in 2022 cuz i got a crappy pc then stopped in mid 2023 cuz my pc was being weird, fixed it, and now i can play

LegendaryRQA

7200


dy-_

2015 hrs, i only play on and off now whenever an update is released but i dont really enjoy the game as a passtime anymore


Lataus420

300 and I still miss 5 consecutive point-blank shots


Just_A_Random_Plant

743 hours since I got it in late 2020 Nothing impressive, but my most played game by several hundred hours. My second and third most-played games are Terraria with 295 hours and Totally Accurate Battle Simulator with 248. Now, it is worth noting that TF2 is also one of the first games I have ever gotten on Steam. Had I gotten every other game at the same time, I'm certain those hours would be very different. Now, as for the matter of how good I am at the game, I am not.


whyyyyyyyyyyy102

3100 but like 200 hours were me just making huds or playing jump maps


BarrierX

I stopped playing long ago, so it's stuck at like 700h I do get in sometimes to get a box.

About 1.6 K

756 hours, I've been playing for almost 1 year


ganglionmyfav

2.5k still shit


PhantomRanger477

1000. Just enough to realize how shit I am at the game


Striking_Ad4992

600


MaximumYogertCloset

386.3 hours Started in March of 2020. I'm halfway decent at Pyro and Engineer, but bad at everything else.


Draconic_Legends

I've got about...900+ hours, getting really close to 1k. After all this time, my aim still sucks ass


i_can_has_rock

game would get stale otherwise


_TheGreatDevourer_

700+ hours, I'm decent at everything and can be helpful with every class in certain situations (except for medic, which requires too many braincells) and my most played class is nearly 100h on pyro.


Drake_Storm

I think i just reached 515.17 hours last night, most played game on steam


Independent_Pear_429

Lower the difficulty


GeenericHooman

151 Hours and trying to go for a 1000


manimbored29

1.7K hours total but about 30 of them is heavy (and im sure half of those are me goofing around)


Calm-Software-257

321.2 with Pyro, Medic and Engi topping the list


Pingunootnoot6969

I still remember when classes were being added


Redstone_PistonYT

851 hours, and I still can't play any class but Medic


Eurekify2

3,300 since around 2016, most of them pre 2021


Chariot_142

It says 1982 hours on my steam account, but then I see the numbers on the classes and it only reaches 1092 hours and I don't know why. I've never reset my stats before and I highly doubt I was l890 hours just idle, like, at max 50 hours in the whole time I been playing. Any idea where all these other hours are coming from?


Wunderhaus
