Attention those who whine about respawns in TF2

I think THIS should be REQUIRED READING for playing on the Icrontic TF2 server.
I'm so tired of listening to people whine about respawn and how much it sucks "on this server" like we can just type "respawn less" in the console or something. Respawn is built into the MAPS by the developers, and is mathematically calculated based on a variety of factors.
OMFG THE RESPAWN SUCKS. THIS IS BULLSHIT.

It's built in, and then people change it.
Last night (or maybe Saturday) Keebs and I played on a server with Goldrush low respawn times.. Blue almost CAN'T lose with low respawn. It felt very unbalanced.

original respawn times ftw
Instant respawn is for deathmatch games, which do not require careful balancing or strategizing.
People who complain about respawn times are probably playing MeFortress2.
Or the other team is stacked and beating your ass
Ug...
I've grown to appreciate the stock respawn times. I rarely play on public servers because of it - among other things (annoying newbs are the other big part).
I agree with CB. I use respawn times to observe how the battle is progressing across the map. You can sometimes spot turrets or ambushes in wait. Or enemy spies moving in.
Play with more care = Less deaths. Simple as that.
I really don't even pay attention to the time when I die. I actually enjoy watching someone else try to take out a sentry or headshot a heavy. Or blow up into a million pieces.

Learn by watching, there is also advantages to watching your teammates. You can see spies and other conditions from the third person. Also you can click to the point cams and see whats going on at the next point/payload. This makes you die less.
Also as it is related to the link but doesn't deserve its own thread... I may be reading to into it but did anyone else notice "Work on the next class pack is gearing up" Gears...Engi... Engi next update? :thumbup I for 1 sure hope Engi is next.

If you don't want to worry about respawn times then go play arena. Otherwise learn to enjoy the game or GTFO.
stop killing me so much and we have a deal. On a related note, I'm back, recovered from my latest hard drive crash (DELL, FTW!!)
Also, Prime the respawn times suck. Can't you do something about it?
hate? never.
guess who had MORE problems with their dell? I can't wait till this thing is old enough that I don't feel bad about spending money to replace it.
