Hi. I am shaocloud, as you might already know by seeing my name over there.

Before I got TF2 (a full 6 days ago, I might add), I have been watching the "Meet the Team" videos, gameplay videos and many others with great envy.

I even discussed it with my friend, and his vivid descriptions of the wonderful game left me feeling really empty inside.

By the way, I only have one friend who plays TF2.

This is not because I have a severe lack of friends. This is because I am ASIAN.

That's right. However, I reign from the demo-dictatorship that is Singapore, so we play slightly more games than the countries that surround us, although not as much as Americans.

Hope that's not too much of a "problem" for you guys, although playing on the TF2F servers would give me a ping of 400+.

One day, I grabbed a load of money (S$29.90) and stuffed it in my pockets, and raced down the street to a video game shop.

I stuck a copy of TF2 under the cashier's nose, and before I knew it, I had a gold bar of gaming goodness in my hands.

Reaching home, I immediately got the game out, installed it, and started.

Then I noticed. I SUCK AT THIS.

However, playing for a few days straight, I got better at this, and before long, I was owning the Singaporean Arena server as Pyro.

But the Pyro kinda makes me feel shortchanged, maybe because everyone calls it the "noob class". Never mind.

Some random things about me:

Once I was being brash with a Demo, so I charged towards a Soldier, dodged his rockets, jumped on him and killed him with my Bottle O' Scrumpy.

I have too many stupid deaths to name, and I am such a noob that if I manage to kill someone, I will immediately taunt, resulting in him getting "Dance Dance Immolation".

Which reminds me, causing someone else to get an achievement makes me feel terrible.

I have a gift for spychecking. Then I always lose him, and he backstabs me.

I am hopeless with a spy. I cloaked, ran into a BLU base, and backstabbed an engie in the middle of a whole group of BLUs.

When playing as Soldier, I always ignore my health when rocket jumping. Ugh.

I hope to be friends with you guys. You guys sound really awesome to be with.

So. I am shaocloud.

Sup, Shaocloud. Someone would probably come along with the standard copypasta welcome that includes our server info and everything.

Regarding your suckiness, don't worry, everyone is the same when they first play a multiplayer game. Play against good people (competetive types tend to gravitate towards games smaller than 18 players with crits turned off) and try to figure out strategies on your own. If you are worried about hitting people there are two maps called tr_aim and tr_rocketshooting you can download, though the latter is more about hitting people midair with slow projectiles (like rockets, obviously).

Welcome to the fort!

Howdy , welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Fort. For starters, you should put these in your favorites list:

TF2F#1 | Pro like Chro (208.100.17.252:27015)
TF2F#2 | Insane like Train (208.100.17.253:27015)
TF2F#3 | VOTE for NEXTMAP (208.100.17.247:27015)

These are our private servers, if you plan on playing in our (almost daily) Late Night Pick Up Games or Highlanders (9v9 or 10v10 with one of each class or one of each class plus an extra medic per team).
{TF2F} Amber (208.100.17.250:27015)
{TF2F} Kelly (208.100.17.251:27015)

Secondly, you should get Ventrilio (a voicechat program) and put in this info, so you can chat with us:

vent29.gameservers.com
Port 5787
No password.

Or, if you're of the lazy type, simply join any of our servers and (with Ventrilio installed and a user name selected) type "!vent" into public chat. Through the magic of the internets, you will be connected to our Ventrilio server and placed in the lobby, to chat with us as you will.

Have Fun!

(end copypasta)- Seriously though, hi Shaocloud!

Welcome to the fort!

Thanks for the quick reply! I've read your thread about the Adventures of a God, and it sounds pretty cool too. Sounds somewhat like Black and White, even though I haven't played that before.

Hi to you as well!

Since I reign from Singapore, my ping will surely rise to the millions. Is it fine if I can't use Ventrillo, due to lag?

I lol'd reading your introduction. It's the best one I have seen thus far (although I have only been here for a month) and only one of very few I have commented on. It's unfortunate you cannot play with the majority of us as I would enjoy getting to know you better, but there's always Vent. Hope your gaming goes well! And don't worry, as I have had the game since shortly after its release and I still suck

(But I have only played it for about 3-4 months total since that time, thanks to school.)

Thanks! I'd also really hope to play with you guys. Too bad the latency can never be changed unless I move to the USA or something.

I think we have some players that lived in Asia previously, they had some success connecting overseas with okay ping. I know someone here said they had a ~50 Mbps connection in Japan and it worked for overseas servers. I personally connect to European servers with about 100 ping, though I live in New York with a fast connection. You should be fine using Ventrilo to chat with us, since lag is a rather insignificant issue. Best of luck to you, I know there are servers out there for everyone

With 200+ ping the only real class you can play effectively is medic or engie. Still, he's a good medic.
