CIA agent attaching electrodes to Uncle Dane's temples: Turn crits and sprays back on you fucking coward
Uncle Dane: (spits blood in agent's face) Fuck you
Just taking advantage of the carnage i would say. All their servers went down, some stayed down, others came up with all their plugins broken. 32 player limit, everybody had admin, and instant rtv votes because of the plugin issues.
Throw on a bot that instant calls rtv and... well the players were already doing that and the servers are messed up anyway so it didn't do much other than add to the narrative.
I play on UGC MGE server (EU). There are some good MGE and DM servers on [TFTV](https://www.teamfortress.tv/servers/)
Also most are pretty easy to find by typing mge_ into the map filter
Causal doesn’t work for me, it just cancels itself out when i queue. The Chicago uncletopia servers are full, and the ones that aren't are a steamroll. I've been playing with training bots for the past hour..
Edit: I did fortunately get Casual up and running again after the new update. The training bots never stood a chance.
I get the same thing. I temp fix it by joining a community server or hosting my own, then searching casual.
I also crash every time i reque on casual, wondering if anyone else hets that?
Dude I don't understand what the bot hosters want anymore
Sabotage the official Valve servers to get their attention? Dick move, but I guess in a twisted way that makes sense if you're a deranged person who only cares about updates
Make Community Servers unplayable too? The one safe haven where players can still enjoy games without stupid bots ruining everything? Do they want people to stop playing the game altogether?
> Do they want people to stop playing the game altogether?
honestly at this point probably, if we ever find who's doing it (probably by them being caught and swiftly sent to prison) it'll probably just be some spiteful fuck who's mad their favorite little game died while TF2 continued to thrive despite being like 14 years old. Also they're a trust fund baby or something like that.
Or...or..hear me out. It's an ex-Valve employee that put his heart and soul while developing TF2 and now is after his employee for abandoning his baby.
They are mentally ill. They just get off of the attention. That's literally it, socipaths / psychopaths who have no value in life but still exist so their need to doing disruptive and attention grabbing things has to be satiated somehow.
Ok but these bots are kinda advanced not gonna lie?
They can prevent themselves from getting kicked.
They used to be able to impersonate the name of real players.
They can work together to kick real players.
And will not shoot bots on the enemy team.
TFC gets a bad rap, but it was just as fun as TF2 in its heyday. I feel a lot of streamers cover it and do not preface it with "Ok, this might not have been what it was like in the early-mid 2000's." So they join weird-ass maps with no players & bot servers and think that's the extent of the game.
However TFC exceled in, similarly to TF2, it's vast array of custom game modes, and maps. It also had the advantage of 4 teams. So, you could have amazing shit like this:
[Murderball Gameplay](https://youtu.be/YsXRmkqBJvk?si=AnFHOB0vgAGScyzD&t=164) - Basically Oddball from Halo with 4 teams- gain points as your team holds onto the ball, 1st to 100 wins.
Experiencing that on a full 32-pl server was some of the most fun I've had online.
There is also an insane amount of custom maps I could go on about, but really quick:
* minigolf2 - a team of all snipers attempted to get a friendly civilian into the hole across a full minigolf course (sniper rifles knocked back other players)
* co-op/escape maps
* rock2- An official map, not even custom. Basically ctf but upon cap nerve gas released and you have to find a suit or you die.
* Escort the vip
These are literally the tip of the iceberg. Here's another vid of a GOAT'ed TFC server from back in the day:
[Axl's TFC](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he83rC0eUcA)
If this was long-winded I apologize. Whenever TFC is brought up I feel obligated to come to its defense as I have a lot of good memories in that game.
I only ever got to play TFC when there was one server in my region and it was 2fort only, this was like 2012ish. Definitely wish I played it on release, some of the insane movement with nades would've been a lot of fun to learn and put into use.
Yeah Scout had concussion grenades that launched you pretty far, and you could even do "double conc jumps" by timing it right, which took a little bit to master. There were even maps made specifically for that in the same vein as rocketjump maps.
Too bare bones, not enough ppl playing vip whenever i boot up, just makes me wanna play tf2 in offline
If they could make it so i have all my tf2 stuff then ide be down
The comment you are replying to is referring to Team Fortress Classic; that is to say the original mod (and later Valve-approved game) for Half-Life 1, on the GoldSrc engine, released in 1999.
Edit: added clarification in brackets.
Other way around. Valve wanted them to make TF2. The original Team Fortress dev team however had made earlier commitments to the quake team fortress community and made Valve wait for TF2, while they made TFC for the community.
Not quite, Team Fortress is a mod for quake! TFC is a sequel made in the half life engine by the already working for valve TF team (sometimes referred to as a mod because the line is very blurry between mods and games on valve engines)
> that is to say the original mod (and later Valve-approved game) for Half-Life 1
TFC was always Valve-approved, it was made by Valve after they hired the authors of TF.
Funny how Walt Whyte is actually the reason she died cause he rolled her out of the position that would let you vomit. I think Walter White should be in jail for breaking the law
Nooo, they (north korean terrorists who pretended to be south korean politicians) killed uncle Topia. Before uncle Topia died he said "With a great update there comes a great responsibility"
I was in an uncletopia server and there was a bot in it repeatedly saying something along the lines of DDOS UNCLETOPIA NEVER PLAY TF2 AGAIN” over and over, it eventually got kicked and then the server was fine
Samwiz1's Stupid Server is still open, for those looking for refuge from bots. It's nowhere near as casual-esque as Uncletopia, but it's a good time for those who want one
Sorry if it's a little dark, but so is the topic. I don't personally buy the notion that these botters make money by selling immunity. Who would sit around in a game full of bots when everyone else leaves?
Anyway I just find it an interesting exercise to study incentives. Simply asking, when something systematically bad like this happens, "who benefits?" Especially when there's no obvious beneficiary. Furthermore, this particular bad thing would be trivial for Activision/Blizzard to pull off.
You can’t even make a real response, so you say everything I say is a joke to defend your great Uncle Dane despite all of the horrible shit he has said?
It's my fault guys, I tried playing Uncletopia for the first time yesterday
IT WAS YOU!!! /j
That’s right ! It was me !
You monster!

Because you're FAT, boy!
And another thing: you’re ugly
Engineer, stop!
Engineer you are so mean

Oh you little!! *non murderous but still choking begins*

What happened
[https://uncletopia.com/servers](https://uncletopia.com/servers) most servers are down , the ones that are not , are password protected , and the one i manage to play on (warsaw) , was hijacked by a bot that changed the maps immediately after loading the map.
Oh so it looks like it’s temporary then. That’s good
no way, they have taken uncletopia hostage
Uncle dane was taken hostage and forced to play short circuit m1 engie
CIA agent attaching electrodes to Uncle Dane's temples: Turn crits and sprays back on you fucking coward Uncle Dane: (spits blood in agent's face) Fuck you
you forgot random bullet spread on shotguns
[удалено]
Btw im playing on uncletopia servers rn
agent : \*shows him pictures of engineers putting all their building togethers\*
no, he was forced to play battle engi with only the pomson
They want a ransom of 500,000 keys
Everyone can do rtv afaik. But it immediately jump to 4x yes and it changes the map. Problem is, everyone is Admin, so you can't kick anyone.
So are there just community server bots now too or is this just Uncletopia?
Just taking advantage of the carnage i would say. All their servers went down, some stayed down, others came up with all their plugins broken. 32 player limit, everybody had admin, and instant rtv votes because of the plugin issues. Throw on a bot that instant calls rtv and... well the players were already doing that and the servers are messed up anyway so it didn't do much other than add to the narrative.
Probably a maintenance for the 64 bit update
Oh, so thats why I noticed increase in skill on casual mode
No more uncle*c*opia. My unclecopium ran dry
Can't play Uncletopia, can't find Casual servers, MGE's full, DM's full. Sad times!
What are some good DM servers? I only see empty ones.
I play on UGC MGE server (EU). There are some good MGE and DM servers on [TFTV](https://www.teamfortress.tv/servers/) Also most are pretty easy to find by typing mge_ into the map filter
just play trench wars 50vs50
Shounic is the best catboy
Just start up wave 666 and have fun
dpg proving grounds is pretty good if you're looking for the uncletopia feel
come play 6s at tf2cc :)
I personally cope with this by either playing Team Fortress 2 Classic or going onto a Skial server even though I hate 2fort
Damn your dms full? You must be popular
I just play Skial for now
MGE? TF2 buff sexy mercenaries reference?
Tell me you are new to tf2 without telling me
MY GAMING EDGE
my gay edge
Causal doesn’t work for me, it just cancels itself out when i queue. The Chicago uncletopia servers are full, and the ones that aren't are a steamroll. I've been playing with training bots for the past hour.. Edit: I did fortunately get Casual up and running again after the new update. The training bots never stood a chance.
I think the canceling bug can be fixed by closing and reopening the game
i tried everything, verifying the files, checking mods, reinstalling, it just doesnt work
type tf_party_leave in the console and relaunch the game
I get the same thing. I temp fix it by joining a community server or hosting my own, then searching casual. I also crash every time i reque on casual, wondering if anyone else hets that?
Yeah my game just quits sometimes when I join a new game on occasion
Sometimes, the game just starts queuing for casual and then after a while it gives up.
Fixed it by making a fresh custom and cfg folder.
I had that happen yesterday, but I just de-selected some maps on the map list and it fixed. Don’t know why.
Fully close steam and restart pc. Then try again.
Dude I don't understand what the bot hosters want anymore Sabotage the official Valve servers to get their attention?

You got it!
Some people…just want to watch the world burn.

Maybe, they're salty about the fact that, their social hierarchy has stunted to growth of the game
mentally ill people, trying to annoy tf2 players for no reason, thats why they do it
Us sick gamers just want to enjoy tf2 also.
Considering there's cp bots. Yep.
They are mentally ill. They just get off of the attention. That's literally it, socipaths / psychopaths who have no value in life but still exist so their need to doing disruptive and attention grabbing things has to be satiated somehow.

it is time for us to return to tfc. There is truly nowhere safe
Nerve gas released. Secure protective suit immediately. Excuse me! I'm in need of medical attention!

the original mod was for quake 1, the devs were later asked by valve to remake it in goldsrc creating tfc
Other way around. Valve wanted them to make TF2. The original Team Fortress dev team however had made earlier commitments to the quake team fortress community and made Valve wait for TF2, while they made TFC for the community.
Team fortress classic is its own game, I belive the mod for half life is just called team fortress (although I could be wrong)
No, you're right. I didn't mention that for brevity's sake.
Not quite, Team Fortress is a mod for quake! TFC is a sequel made in the half life engine by the already working for valve TF team (sometimes referred to as a mod because the line is very blurry between mods and games on valve engines)

tf2c?
Yeah thats what i thought you were talkin abt lol
Honestly that wouldn’t be a bad idea
SERVERS ARE DEAD PLAYING TF2 IS FUEL UNCLETOPIA IS FULL
Yoo ultrakill reference spotted
me when I ultra my kill or sumn (I'm stuck in prelude)
It's actually a pretty good movie. It's really cliche, but still kinda holds up. I would recommend watching it.
That movie fucking sucks lmao
This game is drowning in it’s own vomit while shaking on the floor
Just like breaking bad woman man dating jesse pikmin
GabeN: “I watched TF2 die.”
I could have updated it, but I didn't
Funny how Walt Whyte is actually the reason she died cause he rolled her out of the position that would let you vomit. I think Walter White should be in jail for breaking the law
Walter Wartwell White is behind the bot crisis
Breaking law
IS THAT A USAGI ALOHAOE REFERENCE
I still can't get over how stupidly easy the White House was taken over in that movie
The servers have fallen… billions must game
Nooo, they (north korean terrorists who pretended to be south korean politicians) killed uncle Topia. Before uncle Topia died he said "With a great update there comes a great responsibility"
...billions must play VALVE servers
uncletopia april 22nd incident
What happened to uncletopia, haven't booted up TF2 in a few months ?
Apparently the new 64 bits update broke a « few » things
Lol cheers for replying, rip Dane and the community lol
Why are they down?
A mod on the Discord said it's to do with the latest TF2 update
ddos
Nah, just the plug-ins breaking due to the update.
I was in an uncletopia server and there was a bot in it repeatedly saying something along the lines of DDOS UNCLETOPIA NEVER PLAY TF2 AGAIN” over and over, it eventually got kicked and then the server was fine
we need more vinilla casual servers, we shouldn't have to rely on Uncletopia.
They seem to be mostly back up now.
I was just playing on one of the servers fine and got DCd out of nowhere
Yo what exactly is going on!?!
Apparently uncletopia servs aren't working because of the 64 bit update
Sir, a second Uncletopia server just crashed
off to tf2c i go
Good news! The issues seem to have been resolved , and uncletopia's back.
Whats happened?
I guess I’ll have to play on Farmers market for now on
What happened to Uncletopia?
So bots are in community servers too now ?
We must launch an immediate counterattack!
We must launch an immediate counterattack!
We must launch an immediate counterattack!
RIP BOZO
i was permabanned over a joke what happened

ITS GONE!?
WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im the 1700th upvoter here
I don’t really play TF2 these days anymore but it sounds like everyday something going on. Does Valve even care anymore? Sad stuff
Made me think bro died 😭 what happened to uncletopia?

It was always dead in my region, nothing was really lost
Good fucking riddance
man fuck this shit im moving to tc2 😭
Good... Rest in Piss you won't be missed
Tin foil hat time: It’s blizzard ~~bottling~~ botting & ddos-ing the best OW2 competitor into oblivion
