am i the only one who hates payload

[geoghegan]

to me it always seems that the community glorifies payload maps , but i just find them to be very hard to get kills and to be filled with some of the most irritating kind of players , i prefer koth and ctf where you can get in to many 1vs 1s and rack up a killstreak ,howeverbased on my tf2 knowledge this seems to be an unpopular opinion. pls let me know if anyone agrees with me.

[Hyer Womba]

yes you are

[Staffy]

Ctf is literally worst gamemode it can't offer anything that other gamemodes can't.

[Svampen]

ctf and plr is the cancer of this game

thats the point , you get more playtime , more balanced games which last longer

ctf is heavily disliked by the community, which is why most good players tend to play other gamemodes (payload especially for some reason) meanwhile ctf mostly only has low-skill players

you're not the only one that hates payload though, i can't stand the gamemode almost as much as i can't stand the godawful maps made for it (notably upward)

yeah all the "unkillable player" do payload and you feel much more powerless +its mostly really conjested with awful chokepoints

tfw le fast_cp is also plagued by glaring turtling.
tho at least it's not "push against a stacking of area denial class" 24/7 so guess that's a gain.

The only thing i hate is crutch weapons

[Tatters]

I hate Payload because you're either getting absolutely destroyed or the match is over in 10 seconds. I much prefer Capture the Flag because fellow people who are bad at video games are there and I can practice all my strats for other modes.

Payload is generally awful. It still cracks me up that people complain that 5cp stalemates too much. Homie, in Payload it's red teams job and only job to force a stalemate.

*Dynamic back-and-forth where it's unclear which team will win* Ugh, horrible boring stalemate. :(

*7 minutes of lock-down turtling where nothing happens* A glorious victory for red team! :D
