TF2 players ignoring literally one of the biggest update TF2 will ever get.

This is more important than simple weapons and maps.
But I can't see ANY TF2 player actually cheering for this update. (Especially #savetf2 community)
I hate this community sometimes.

This is actually a very nice thing and im still convinced that some people will find a way to complain about it one way or another

It is hard for non devs to fully understand why this is important and when csgo and gmod got ported to 64 bit. There was no major changes.

The tf2 community will understand once the update releases, which is very soon.

Wonder why they do this for a "dead" game?

I truly hope so

Don't forget Vulkan! This one guy with that 7900XTX who got a 20% improvement must be really happy. (Though that thing is kinda overkill for TF2)

To make it playable once 32bit is dropped by every modern os

[grape cough syrup]

I already get 200+ fps in the big big servers. I would rather they fix the bots so I can play my favorite maps whenever I want as opposed to joining unclesoypia and hoping the map changes to something I want to play.

AFAIK, the 64bit beta cannot connect to public servers, so how was this performance tested? did they spin up their own servers? is that possible? did they test with other players? what about cosmetics and unusual effects that are known to degrade performance?

either way, porting an entire game from 32bit instructions to 64bit is no small undertaking, especially for TF2. three cheers for the potted plant, and all the hard work he's done.

is this update perhaps being done to make TF2 compatible with the updated VAC CS:2 uses? or would that still need a game engine swap before it could be implemented?

They tested performance with demo recordings and private servers
