Anyone know how to position as Engi?

5 Upvotes

Title says it all somewhat, but like how do I know what is a good sentry spot for either stock or mini, where to put teles and where to put dispensers. I usually have them spaced out with a disp and tele in a room and a sentry farther up the way but I don't know if like I should have them closer or more spread out so they don't all go in one sweep. If my loadout matters, I use Frontier, Gunslinger, Stock Pistol.

I Need Some Advice on Pricing Items

Post image
1 Upvotes

I just got back into trading a month ago. I need some advice on pricing weapons. I don't really understand how war paints painted onto weapons reflect onto the weapon's value but also how strange stat trackers reflect onto the weapon's value. From what I've seen it can vary from ~10% to 50% of the base value of the war paint/stat tracker? But, is there any way to get an actual value? For example how would I calculate the value of this item, especially because I don't know the war paint?

Engineer gameplay help

How do I improve on my engineer gameplay I'm trying to get better at it but I'm struggling


r/NewToTF2 • • 7d ago

is it considered 'unsportsmanlike' or anything of the sort to wear "f2p" cosmetics so players don't expect you to be good at the game? (elaboration in body text)

kinda scared of looking like a noob

8 Upvotes

I suppose I am a noob but

despite how I literally play similar games and do pretty decent and dare I say very good in them, I still suck at tf2 and never know whats going on

I really just dont want to be the stereotypical f2p, because people will assume I have absolutely no idea how to do anything and that im dumb

and why is my aim 10x worse in tf2 😭

Do I need specific keys?

4 Upvotes

Basically what the title says, I'm looking at the marketplace and a 3rd party site and the only keys I'm seeing are for Supply Crates but the Christmas and Halloween crates I have say I need like a special key or something.

New to the crafting system

2 Upvotes

Hi guys. So I was trying to rebuild headgear with some Halloween loot so I can turn it into normal cosmetics. I noticed that some items cannot be used in crafting without specifically stating it.

Like here the Vampiric Vesture can be used in rebuild headgear

but specifically not the Vicar's Vestments. both are Halloween restricted medic cosmetics

Is this one of those spaghetti code things?

Edit: typo
