View 1 comments & details Tags: Team Fortress 2 melvin sneedly #killtf2▾ TF2 has problems but bots are not one of them There, I said it. The "bot crisis" can be completely avoided if you just play on community servers. *B-but I- I dont want to play on community servers >> I cant be the 7th sniper and n-no random crits and so many tryhards (people who are better than me)☺☺ Then instead of complaining about the lack of "good" community servers and spamming hashtags begging Valve to make casual playable, the community can maybe try hosting "good" community servers. Someone did that and it actually ended up working and creating a good active place for lots of people who genuinely wants to play the game. Unlike Counter Strike 2, you have absolutely no reason to choose casual over community servers. So stop comparing the cheater situation in CS2 to TF2. There is a reason why old games like CS 1.6 and CSS and community servers in tf2 have never suffered from cheaters, its because you can just ban the cheaters from a server and the problem is completely solved Bots arent ruining the game at all, they are completely avoidable. Stop acting like Casual is the only way to play TF2. TF2 has worse problems in its core that you cant fix with custom server plugins and mods and #savetf2 doesnt really focus on them. less than 20k actual players Imfao tf2 is dead. fixtf2 wont do anything. start your own community server if you're so fed up with casual (and dont like the current community server lineup). actually, keep whining and doing nothing, it's funny to watch a bunch of redditors get really angry. Angom 2 hours ago I don't get all those "FixTF2" and "Bot" people are talking about Just turned on my Xbox 360 and jumped into a Team Fortress 2 match, and it was an absolute blast! I din't saw any of those bots, glitches, etc. It was just pure, unadulterated fun. What are you guys complaining about?

Update as of July 3rd PROCEED WITH CAUTION As of July 1st, Valve has taken extensive measures to alleviate Team Fortress 2's botting crisis. While we as a community are incredibly grateful for the actions being taken, many of us believe that further evidence is required to warrant a newfound sense of confidence in game's future. If Bots Remain Gone By the Summer Update: These efforts require persistent and continuous upkeep, otherwise we run the risk reverting back to a bot-infested status quo. As the Summer Update draws near, Team Fortress 2 consumers should be heavily encouraged to adjust their spending habits and/or review scores based on whether or not these anti-bot measures continue. This would be great news! However, we must keep in mind that malicious actors have a heightened incentive to host bots during periods of major player-excitement. Before jumping the gun on any in-game or Steam market purchases, we highly recommend waiting on much more additional proof that bot accounts are being met with swift and consistent action. Examples include; game-bans, community bans, and/or account deletion. If Bots Return Before or After the Summer Update: We recommend withholding all monetary investment from TF2 until the issue has been resolved. Team Fortress 2 deserves to be in a playable state before players resume supporting the product financially.

Steam Support Team Fortress 2- I've been game banned Team Fortress 2 game bans are permanent, non-negotiable, and are not removed by Steam Support. • Why are game bans issued? • Can you tell me why I was game banned? • Can I appeal my game ban? • I was not using my account when it was game banned. Can the ban be removed? • Can I move my Team Fortress 2 items to a different account? Why are game bans issued? Game bans in Team Fortress 2 are issued when a player attempts to circumvent or interfere with game systems to the detriment of others. Examples include: • Cheating. • Manipulation of Competitive Mode rank. Botting and/or automation. Intentionally interfering with the normal operation of game servers or other players. Game Bans for all of the above are not removed by Steam Support.

TF2 steam threads expose not just how unorganized SaveTF2 is, but also how TF2 youtubers blatantly lie and propagandize information to get a stronger reaction and profit off of this movement

Despite being 16+ years old, Team Fortress 2 is one of the most played and most beloved games of all time. However, despite its massive community and long- lasting impact on gaming, TF2 is in an unplayable state. Starting off strong with a bunch of blatant misinformation here. TF2 is NOT one of the most played games of all time (beloved is also questionable). Despite popular belief, TF2 did not peak at 200,000 players like people have led you to believe, the information giving by steamcharts is not accurate, as it counts online players and not players in a server. Lastly, the only long-lasting impact this game had on gaming is introducing micro-transactions, so you can thank TF2 for the reason you have to pay for skins in every new game that releases. The game is overrun with bots that instantly kill every player trying to play the game, spread hate speech, and use their power over the community for financial gain. We want to show Valve that there is no room in the community for the problematic individuals who host these bots, and This Petition is not a direct means of changing things, but a show of numbers for the number of people who want to take a stand against them. While it is true that the game is overrun with bots, they are easily avoidable. Players can also kick them out easily. I'd say the cheater problem is worse than the bot problem as cheaters are harder to detect than the blatant spinbot sniper spamming The petition is just an example of how disorganized, and how unplanned this new *SaveTF2" is. It is also an example of how people will do anything to take advantage of the clout that SaveTF2 provides. The fundamental flaw of this hash tag is the fact it was concieved By youtubers For youtubers. They will always try to deny this but it's true, it was just a big advertisement. Not to mention the fact that they continuously push it. They weaponize their audiences by saying "Valve will definitely do something good this time, just spread this word everywhere! Its totally not advertising its caring for the game!" Instead of actually doing something helpful like spreading the word of community servers and how they can be used to avoid the bots, they decide to do this, this awful movement and brainwash people into loving it. Hell people get so brainwashed they go out of their way to attack anyone who doesn't support it (but thats a topic for another thread). Going back to the petition, its funny how they spread misinformation and ignore literal solutions for the sake of convincing someone to sign it. Its sad to see the community just fall for the SaveTF2 trap expecting anything to change, and then they make a petition expecting it to be the thing that definitely saves them. Change.org petitions rarely do anything and this will never effect anything whatsoever. voice lines and a noisemaker. Not to mention that community servers exist, if you really find kicking bots out of a lobby THAT terrible you can join one of the countless servers that have their own anticheat in place. Also, financial gain? Bot hosters don't get money for hosting bots, I have no idea where this point even came from? The only Its also sad to see people drop actual f------ money on this petition. Even buying a people who get financial gain from bots are TF2 YOUTUBERS as they profited heavily tf2 hat is f------ something, this is nothing. You are just wasting money on a thing off of the original #saveTF2 movement, and are probably planning to again since you that will never happen. The most this petition will ever do is make change.org 100 suckers love throwing them money. more dollars. Valve must do something, because these bots shouldn't have a platform in a beloved and massive game like TF2. We're asking for an open dialogue between Valve and the community. We understand that Valve has other responsibilities, but they have a responsibility to take care of TF2. We ask for open communication from Valve and more clear indication of their plans for TF2. This was mostly sparked from the item servers, because god forbid you cant use your crutch weapons or show off your femboy uwu loadout for 2 days. If you buy an item or read the TOS, you would know that if you spend money, your items will disappear if valve feels like it because you technically dont own it. This was the thing that sparked a second save tf2, and all of the sudden the tweet they were happy Valve will not do anything, and that is a fact. This is a false hope operation and I don't with was all of the sudden the worst thing that ever happened. know how people refuse to see this? The first time didn't work, so why would it work again? Especially with even less people backing it this time... You start another #saveTF2 because the item servers are down for a couple of days? What a joke. God forbid you lose your 5,000 dollar inventories for 2 days guys. Maybe enjoy the game the way it was intended to be played without all of the crutch unlocks? Valve does not do open dialogue, and they never will. It is also not their responsibility to take care of TF2, as the game is not in an "unplayable" state. Unplayable means that you are not able to play the game. I can boot up TF2 right now and get in a match. So no, TF2 is not "unplayable". **please do not donate to promote this petition, simply share it with friends. This part is the funniest to me, because the guy who posted this explicitly said not to donate. (Because it won't do anything) yet like the hive-mind the TF2 community is. they throw away their money on a useless petition that won't do anything anyway. Congratulations guys, you threw money at a stranger that doesn't even know what to do with it. You sure showed those bot hosters! Together we can #saveTF2! TL:DR This movement is a joke, the petition is flawed. Accept the fact that another major update will never come. It pains me to see them just constantly try an already proven useless solution. maybe try something new. Try spreading the word of community servers, maybe to a massive charity donation event the size of the og savetf2 (instead of dropping money on a useless petition drop money on people who need it), or maybe SOMETHING else. But no, they are already tricked into using this, and I wont be surprised if in 2 years, this resurfaces. https://steamcommunity.com/app/440/discussions/0/4334229775340726817/ (Thread was too long to screenshot so here's the link) Review Bombing TF2 Is a Bad Idea FixTF2 was a failed movement from the start, Valve did nothing today and will still do nothing later. By review bombing the game you're discouraging new players from playing this already dying game. It's like you guys WANT tf2 to die faster or something. Don't you all like this game? Don't be surprised if you see the player numbers drop even more than they have been. This movement has caused more damage to this game than the bot hosters. The author of this topic has marked a post as the answer to their question. Click here to jump to that post. Originally posted by Cat_Soldier: Idk why they think that just because helldivers 2 did it (which is a much more popular game and has more influence) can do it, so can tf2 (an older game with much less players and impact in the modern day) Originally posted by Gnome Truther: Originally posted by shiib: youtuber goes low on views → restarts savetf2 for attention → braindead sleeper agents awaken and fall for it → they rush onto all platforms to spam the # → they get disappointed once the # ends and it achieves nothing → they go back to standby until next savetf2 video → repeat Originally posted by PMC Portable Merc Collector: I genuinely think TF2 will become more akin to TFC, a abandoned but beloved classic with just community servers to play on. Not a bad thing either! People love to shout about how "TF2 DEAD GAME" but in reality, while the game is abandoned, the fanbase sure as hell isn't. Videos on TF2 gain multiple times the amount of viewers and attention as people playing TF2. The fanbase has turned multimedia, most of them don't play the game, instead it's shown through art, memes, mods for other games, in videos, etc. Hell the vast majority of TF2 doesn't even come from TF21 It comes from SFM and Gmodl We don't need to save TF2 again, it never needed saving, we just gotta make sure the game can still be played how we want it over on community servers. We just need to migratel Plus, when the community servers become the main option, the bots will just magically disappear as a problem. Community mods will do better then VAC ever will. Is it a foolproof solution? No, there'll be likely many hurdles, but I think imo it's the best option we got. Did I do it right?

Brothers in Arms

BROTHERS TARMS On June 3rd, we're all going to collectively group together to take a stand against Valve's inaction in dealing with the bots. We're going to showcase the absolute magnitude of this issue to the online masses. Screenshots, videos, and personal stories surrounding the bots in action, all accompanied by the tag #FixTF2. Alongside this is our petition, which will serve to represent the sheer enormity of how many players Valve's inaction has negatively affected. We plan on forwarding each and every signature to them at a later date. We hope to gain the attention of as many mainstream gaming news outlets as possible, further shining a spotlight on the issue at hand. TF2 is not dying, it is being intentionally killed. Our mission statement for this campaign is to have Team Fortress 2 achieve a consistently playable state with updated anti-cheat measures that actually function. We're also asking for an open line of communication with Valve as we work to address this problem.

Malicious Machiens

SUSPECT Laserdefend sa lil bonele GavinGame 321 ForestSurvivor101 SUSPECT C 0011 MALICIOUS MACHINES The aimbots are programmed to join casual servers en-masse, insta-killing and kicking innocent players, intent on ruining their in-game experience. This behavior is where most of the community's resentment stems from, however, many are unaware that the problem goes far beyond simply trolling and cheating. The bot hosters are malicious actors, using their aimbots as a vessel to endlessly attack and harass community members. They abuse the in-game text and voice chats to spread the most vile hate speech imaginable, while simultaneously advertising their "bot immunity services" in an attempt to scam the players desperately looking for a solution. They've used these same means to dox people's personal information and broadcast it to the player-base against their will. Bot hosters have even gone so far as to commit actual crimes, such as using Al voice-modifiers to impersonate and slander non-consenting parties, launching persistent DDoS attacks, and have even swatted one of their most ardent critics. There should be a zero-tolerance policy relating to this kind of conduct, and Valve needs to be held accountable for persistently refusing to acknowledge it.

The Aimbots Need to Go

THE AIMBOTS NEED TO GO For the past five years, Team Fortress 2 has become nearly unplayable. The game's official servers have been overrun by hordes of cheating aimbots while Valve has remained steadfast in their refusal to adequately tackle the problem. This lack of developer interference has thrown the game into a state of turmoil with seemingly no end in sight. Despite being aware of the bot crisis, Valve has instead directed their focus towards other ventures, leaving TF2 with insufficient support in its grave time of need. From the outside, Valve appears to be more concerned with generating millions in revenue every month via in-game microtransactions, rather than maintaining a product that should work as expected. There's no putting it lightly, Team Fortress 2 is in an unacceptable state, and Valve's apathy in dealing with the issue is nothing short of appalling.
