You can just mute voice comms in the options, yaka :).

Back in the days when friendly fire was enabled, spies were absolutely deadly. You'd have to be reallllly careful who you tried to kill on your side. Now that there's 0 FF, pyros will just flame everyone they pass (at least I do) just to check. If they catch fire - they're a spy.

Oh dear, FF is off? Well I will not be returning to TF2 then. My main gripe with it was a lack of FF at the time I played, it meant flamers just spammed every person they saw, and spies got roasted to easily. The game would be great if FF was on. Shame

Spies can go invisible for a minute though. I've seen great spies totally dominate a game. If FF was on, then spies would be totally uber.

There would be some balancing required, true, but team fps without FF make Jebus cry.

Beta had FF on and it didn't really work. You ended up shooting your own team far too often to the point where it wasn't fun. The game is very fast paced and having to watch FF would detract from the enjoyment.

While it's class based, it plays a lot more like team DM.

Aye Chet, FF really doesn't work on TF2. It's much better with it off.

Meh, I played it with it on and it was fine. The flame spam got boring, and if it still exists then it's not the game for me.

I seem to only enjoy 2Fort, or any of the Push maps.

Saying that, nowadays I rarely boot up into windows to play the game, so revert to the 360 - Valve REALLY needs to fix and update that version so badly....

Okay, been playing it quite a bit now but one thing I don't get is how all of a sudden lots of engineers seem to be able to double jump and land somewhere incredibly impossible and set up their sentry gun in two seconds flat? Is this an exploit, or is this just something you can do and I haven't worked out how yet?

Are they actually double jumping, or are they jumping on top of their dispensers?

Probably a server mod.

Not jumping on the dispensers, jumping in mid air and getting some weird boost like scouts do. Guess it could be a server mod. Might avoid those servers if thats the case as it's bloody annoying.

I play on the above server quite a lot, gets pretty busy in the evenings though so getting a spot can takes a long time. The admins are pretty decent too.

Some servers have the old school conc nades for certain classes.
Been playing this a lot recently as well, love the scout!
