That is how most pubbie servers roll unfortunately. Do you know of the Lost Continents? They're a string of four private servers where a lot of very skilled people play. I could send you an invite if you'd like. As for public servers, Medick's Madhouse usually has people on it that know what they are doing and it has alltalk on.

Do you have a list of some sort of good servers? I find myself hard pressed to find these things on my own for some reason that isn't laziness.

Honest.

Honest.

On some nights when all my favorites are full I just join random servers and hope for the best, but when I don't need to do that I usually play on these:

This is my usual routine
Atlantis, Thule, Hyperborea, and Lemuria: (Private servers, PM me for an invite if you want one)
Medick's Madhouse: 8.6.3.213
Porkchop Sandwiches: 209.160.42.89
Baron's Pub: 66.55.149.227
The Elders: 69.31.15.141
Clan PMG: 64.94.101.30

ps can we throw this stage into the mix next week it looks very fun

Any of the jolt/wireplay UK servers, or GTFOgaming servers are generally populated by pretty cool people. There's so many of them it's pointless to link them, you'll see them in every search of 'europe' servers.

xi's xtreme fun zone is pretty cool but they rarely ever change map so it can get dull, fun group of people though

I went and played on this orange_x 24/7 server today and it was pretty gay. The map is pretty basic and has a nice concept to it but all the potential for a good map is really lost in that it completely favors snipers by not having enough shelters and has a few design flaws with the spawn points. Also public players are really dumb and they camped next to the spawn point instead of capping the last point so gj there.

I play on this server with CLAN -XI- which Jester is now a member of and they seemingly run orange_x 95% of the time HOWEVER!!! they limit it to one sniper per team. All the same, a good sniper makes the experience entirely annoying.

I'm getting tired of the map now, it was fun for awhile but it lacks any real strategy and some classes, like heavy mainly, are really fucking useless. It's good for a LAFFO if you're just dicking around though.

I'm really into cp_warpath now, which is a near perfect remake of the TFC map of the same name, and it's really fun. Even uses TFC style textures (high res of course!!!) so good for a little NOSTALGIA I guess.

TFC style textures

What I meant by this was that is focuses heavily on the sandstone-y type texture, like classic dustbowl did, as opposed to TF2 which throws in a lot of wood and stone buildings and stuff and RETRO-ish cartoony graphics. I guess my point is, TF2's Warpath map is much more similar to TFC's warpath map, than, say, TF2's DUSTBOWL map and TFC's Dustbowl.

WARPATH FEELS MORE LIKE CLASSIC TFC IS WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY!!!!!

Well it's using those textures beceause there isn't a single other texture pack in TF2. :s I'm actually getting really bored of the deserty/mining town graphics and wish they'd stop being fucking lazy and make some new textures for it.

But this is valve we're talking about.

Valve is probably just too lazy to make new textures because every single texture in the game was painted by hand.

Yeah they looked pretty bad. That pyro sucked.
But if it were me I still wouldn't have gotten all of them in a situation like that. I'd probably miss a few times and die half way through.
