Looks like you had a load of "crits" to me.

I'm sure if you have a look at the TF2/Valve forums they'll do a far better job at explaining crits than i can.

Cheers,

You really like that chaos map, seems a bit dull to me, I prefer the bigger maps with objectives. Anyway, nice vid nonetheless.

As for the 1:15, they were crits. They are your friends when fired, but you will elarn to hate the coloured rockets...

Basically, there is a certain chance, getting greater the longer you live and the better you do, of firing crit shots. Depending on the weapon, you may get a single crit for high damage low rate weapons (rocket launcher, shotgun etc) or a certain amount of time firing crits with low damage high rate weapons (minigun, flamethrower).

Grapically, crits will mean your fired shots glow with the colour of your team and cause "Critical hit" to appear in green writing above the enemy if you damage them with these shots. You will also hear the critical sound, which you described as ripping.

Gameplay wise, the crit shots will always deal 2 (or 3?) times the base damage for that shot. This may not seem like a lot, but consider that base damage is the damage caused by the weapon at point blank range, and damage trails off considerabley over distance for every weapon except the sniper rifle (which doesn't crit normally, anyway, just headshots). This means the amount of damage you deal become a lot more than you normally would, which means people will melt before you (especially with the Flamethrower and Minigun, though crit rockets tend to destroy everyone in one shot (except heavies and healed people). Melee crits just double the damage, and possibly increase the hit area too (I seem to hit more when I get crits), and as melee weapons are very powerful to begin with, this can kill a lot of people quickly (bonesaw!). The spies knife does not get crits, AFAIK, but backstabs are always 1HKO.

Well that should be all the info you need.

looks like boring tf2 to me lol. dm dsnt look too fun!

had a pretty gd game on tf2 earlier still not v gd, bt fun lol.

Well I guess it's got the chaos factor, but as I previously said, this kind of DM doesn't appeal to me. Maybe as a 15minute break from normal play, but nothing more.

meh it gets predictable after a while tho, such as with ringking. not a big fan of stuff like tht (mellee sudden death is gd tho, bt this is short and therefore exciting).

I find ringking pretty good for a laugh, just killing people. Playing it a long time would get very boring, though, but 5 to 10 mins is fine. Melee sudden death rocks, though!

lol Saving private ryan tf2 style! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=CTGrjcgSeAA&NR=1

ROFL, that was brilliant!

lol all the sounds and shizzle. Only wish i had tf2 =(

Yeah, all those sounds are actually in the game, though I hadn't heard half of them - rare taunts.

well, the orange box has 20% off now on steam, so go buy it!

Yeah, it's only $40, which is around £24 after tax.

btw all the vids I post here are ones I have made myself

The TK is just stupid. TF shouldn't ever have FF, it just breaks down horribly.

You seem to like playing simple dm type levels, and not CP/CTF?

I made on the 360, but its kinda crappy

Its funny though coz I get first blood somehow by fluking it XD Might put it on youtube in the near future :/

Heh, first blood don't really mean much on TF2, except your eagerness! Thinking about it, it doesn't really matter much on any game.

Nah, but its still fun to get

True, scouts and pyros get it the easiest. Or demomen on defensive maps.

Soldiers ftw, large straight range And high offensive power, they usually strike well on the first hit out of the spawn doors

True, they can do that, but in lots of maps they lack the speed to get to the frontline early.
