Anyone else get depressed playing TF2?
#1

I don't play as much as I used to (I think...), but here's the problem. Sometimes I play TF2 and I die a lot and stuff and it's really depressing... that I get owned so much. I mean, I understand a lot of people are better than me (on the Valve map server), but this is just ridiculous.

Yesterday I ranked 31 and sometimes I wonder how the FUCK I managed to get so high in the first place. I think the class I'm best at is medic and I guess I don't feel so bad when I play medic, but I've been trying to get my least played classes up to par with my most played classes, so I've been playing those a lot (I stil suck at demoman)... that's when I usually get so pissed off and so demoralized, I guess.

There was a time I thought this server was too much for me, not because people were better than me (I like a challenge), but because my ping is always 140-170ms, which at a certain point I thought was too high and I decided to quit playing on the server. So I set off to find a new server that was closer to home (Netherlands), and I did find a 32 player server with a very low ping (something like 20ms). Having a low ping was really so much better, but in the end it wasn't fun at all. The people on that server were total noobs and I think I may have been the best player on that server (not sure though). Sourceop's Valve maps server is really awesome, and so are the other servers (24/7 2fort). I also deleted a lot of people that were on my friends list that were SourceOP regulars and I still haven't gotten around to re-add them all.

No depression here... Just ragequits. lol I usually play in waves... I have weeks were I can lead scouts with a rocket from across the map and there are weeks I cant kill a medic as an ubered heavy. Its at these points where you might want to set tf2 aside for a day or so and play something else.

Do you have a wii? I'll race you in mario kart wii until my finger falls off. No sense in letting a game get you down, just go pick up something else... Hell... go play katamari damacy, I dont think anyone can be sad playing that game. O.o Especially if you play it on acid or something.

Welcome back btw.

Hah, I do have a Wii... I'm a first-class Ntard that hyped the Wii like no tomorow. I also predicted the Wii would be so successful as it is today, but I'm sorely disappointed with its games, and no I don't have Mario Kart Wii, not really impressed with it.

Btw, being a spy is really hard too... it gets so frustrating sometimes, it's the reason why I quit playing hardcore spy. Sometimes it just won't work... and all you do is disguise yourself, enter the enemy base, and get yourself killed... over... and over... and over... without accomplishing ANYTHING. It can be pretty tough.

I totally hear you, man.

Same thing here, except replace your ping with a horrible 6-years-old loyal rig and a average 20 fps.

I used to play with 20-30 fps or so before I had this new computer I'm using (60fps with max settings). It's playable. Not as bad as a high ping, TBH. Although I must say... nothing beats a smooth 60fps.

Why would you get depressed playing a computer game? Don't do that. Stop it.

I get around 10fps in crowded (10-11 players) areas. Definitely unplayable.

Im actually playing Me and My Katamari and Guitar Hero atm becuase im extremely tired of shooters. When i get depressed/frustrated with games (yes your not alone, i get depressed now and then too Wink ) I just pick up another game and its all good for me.

Im also attempting to play Final Fantasy 12, but im really hateing the battlesystem right now >_>
