tf2 lobby is a new pickup system in place and it kinda rapes. you basically sign up with an email and your steam id and then it has a list of all the current games with map and players etc. its all 6v6 and you can choose things like class limits, crits, map and all that. lot of people getting in on this check it out. super easy and its still happening at 4am

It's really a lot of fun and if you've been enjoying the BRB superbowl tourney at all you'll probably love this too.

How long does it usually take to get a game going?  I've really wanted to play more towards less fucking crits ;P  But I don't have time to schedule a game (otherwise I woulda gone for the tourney)


<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills
<@Negate> 12121212121212121212
<@Negate> there is a simple pattern
<+Karrde> I changed my mind.  Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD

depends entirely on how many people are in the lobby. It just came out of beta last night, with a lobby of 25ish people (most of whom were afk at 3am) it took 10ish minutes to get a game going. So hopefully, not very long at all, but ymmv


Also apparently the creators encourage people to try using it for scrims, so you can do that too if you're so inclined. Unfortunately most of the servers are valve-provided servers so they're pretty shit :\

they're awful. thankfully, you can elect to use your own private servers.

They aren't all Valve's. A lot of them are community servers just given freely. I considered giving Yellow part time, however you need to give up Rcon for obvious reasons.

If you had horrible ping, it was probably on the community Euro servers.

Quote:http://tf2lobby.com/img/screenshots/lobby.png
TF2Lobby.com (tf2lb) aims to make it easier for existing competitive players to arrange pickup games as well as make the format appealing and more accessible to a wider swath of the TF2 player base. Pickup games have traditionally been arranged through inaccessible or otherwise unintuitive methods, and tf2lb attempts to address those issues, giving anyone the ability to organize a game without admin intervention.

Central to tf2lb is its namesake Lobby, where up to 12 players can join, easily specify a match config, and set their teams/classes. tf2lb automatically launches TF2 and connects you to an appropriate server. Whether or not you have access to a server, tf2lb can help. For those without a server, we have a pool of over 40 US and EU servers ready for public use, generously provided by Valve and other communities.

the valve ones are absolutely terrible but i just use my own server whenever i make a lobby. if one of the guys heading up yellow starts lobbies he can just use yellow for it. should be a lot better

I've played two games using it.  First one was pretty good.  Second one everyone on my team except me had 200+ ping and didn't speak fluent English  :Smile

Seems like a good way to get some pug experience otherwise.
