Thoughts on special medic servers and the 1,000,000 heal hack server.

Well I didnt play TF2 for a while been playing WoW a lot I come back to find the medic patch had been added.I was like cool so i start looking through the list of things they want you to do and was thinking some of them are pretty easy and some are just retarded.

I started talking to a few people that i saw with the uber saw,asking them how the hell they did some of these things.There response every time was achievment server # (add number here).So i looked them up and was suprised when i logged into one or 2 special panels and control points to do all of them and even a hacked server that basicly gets you 1,000,000 heal in no time.

My opinion on them was basicly if this is how peopel wanna do it thats cool,I mean i even used them for a few the solider and scout uber killing ones come to mind as well as the one where you need to uber 10 friends.


How do you guys feel about these servers and have you used any of them be honest

I went there on accident once. One of my friends was playing on it and I clicked the join server thing on the friends list. I still chose spy, though I disguised as medic. I did two backstabs and then joined another server.

Personaly, I'm just waiting for the spy achievements and new weapons. If there are any "achievement_box" levels for the spy, I won't join them. (Unless they are super hard)

Do not approve!

I've said this before, but I think having them is a good idea. Like you said, there are some ridiculous achievements out there, and some of them actually discourage team play and winning. I would rather have people try to farm these achievements on those servers than on my team and costing us a win.


If a medic has an uber, i expect him to use it on a heavy/soldier/demo on clearing out sentries and enemy congested areas, not so the heavy can punch enemies or the medic can hold onto his charged uber as he tries to kill enemies on his own.

It's great if those noob medics are on the other team though.

I don't like the new wave of medics, but I'm not gonna lie; it's as fun as hell when an enemy medic ubers you. When he sees that you are really a spy and not a heavy there is a split second of the medic thinking, "I'm a failure at everything." I live off of that feeling. Plus you feel good knowing that he wasted his uber.

Hopefully they will show valve what a failure their achievement system is and how they are going to make their stats system obsolete (i don't mind) because of the huge scores made on them. I'm sure there are a few medics out there a little peeved off that everyones got 300+ points for medic. Picture that,but for every class.

/got 400 000 heal in 15 minutes ;D
//hellooooo ubersaw

I also do not approve, and Henchman, it's going to start pissing me off when people have a 300+ score for pyro when that patch comes out and I'm the one who put time into it. Even though the pyro duels will be amusing.

I agree with Kill it with Fire, but it will be nice when the new sniper patch comes out. Baaaaaaack staaaaaaabs

valve puts in stupid ass requirements and this is what they get.  When you play in leagues and they allow these weapons you have to have them.

I like the achievements idea and having something to try for, even if some of them are a bit arbitrary.  It adds more flavor to the game for me.  If someone else doesn't want to play that way and just goes to an acheivement_box map or something similar, then that is up to them. 

The way I see it, the people who would really use these new weapons would have them any way in a fairly short time, and the people who cheat to get them aren't going to play medic much longer anyway.  Plus, I'm not threatened by some noob medic playing on the other team who happens to have the ubersaw because they cheated or farmed and I still don't cause I'm playing through the rest of the 39 as I go.

I did get a few of my achievements on achievement box maps so I could start playing quicker with the kritzkrieg, but I stayed as long as I did mainly because it was fun to have 20 medics on one map bonesawing each other and hanging out in a weird atmosphere (and I enjoy helping other people out, which is part of why I play medic anyway).  I actually liked playing the map or else I wouldn't have stayed.
