Please put a cap on Snipers and Spies

[Tresher]

Its really annoying when people go 3 snipers or 4 (!) spies. Put a limit that only 1- 2 are allowed. Even more annoying is when you ask very friendly: "Guys can we have less Snipers please?" they answer: "LOL its fun." Its fun to lose cause we had horrible class balance? Im totally okay with it when the enemy team was better but this is just bad. It takes the fun out of the game. What is the point in having 4 spies (mostly on defense). Theoretically 1 pyro could burn those 4 spies to ashes.

Read again. There you will find my point.

There are a lots of bad players who'd rather lose than switch classes.

Switch to the other team and use your knowledge of their incompetence to destroy them. If they won't learn via you telling them, make them learn by dominating their moron asses.

Team fortress 2 isn't a serious game. Even if its called "Team" fortress, most people do it for the fun, not for the seriousness. No one cares if you win or lose these days, just that you have fun playing. How can you call tf2 serious with crits? Just how. One time I was on an all-sniper team (attacking) and the RED had actual variety with their classes-- and we still won. What if those seven spies were all credit-to-team and the only scout just had no opposition capturing the objectives? Same goes to sniper-- what if they just got everyone and the non-snipers had no opposition. Those five million snipers/spies wouldn't be so bad then, huh? But let me think this through seriously. Well, after five seconds of thought, I've realised putting a class limit would ruin tf2. Lets say there are 2 snipers-- limit is 2 snipers. Both snipers are ♥♥♥♥. Professional sniper joins and sees the idiots, oh wait nope class limit, sorry, your stuck with ♥♥♥♥♥♥ snipers forever. Same goes for pretty much every class in tf2. I see that its for snipers and spies, but ♥♥♥♥ limits on classes just prevent good players from taking those classes.

This man gets a medal

I really don't get why it is always spies and snipers, I mean, those are exactly the classes you don't want to have many of as they are only support.

It's a Valve server, what the hell do you expect?

So basically take away a player's freedom? Um, no. Spy is more useful then people give him credit for.

[Katokevin]

Guess you never played on a 2fort with the other team as all spys or snipers. pyro and soldier heven.

There is a difference if you have 1 Spy, or if you have 5 of them. The more you have, the more the other team will spycheck, and they will have much time to do so, as there are no Demos, Soldiers or Heavies keeping them busy. Spy needs distraction to work best.

I have, do you have any f**king idea how funny is it charging at them as a Scout with a Force of Nature screaming 'HERE I COME!' over the mic.

I got MVP like that once...

If this happens, then we won't have sniper/spy servers.

In my opinion, if someone downloads the game and plays it, then they can do whatever they want. It's annoying to be their teammate, but...
