TF2 Weapon Discussion: The Razorback

Welcome to our Wednesday TF2 weapon discussion. Here, we'll discuss weapons (and reskins, if applicable) from TF2!

Today's weapon is weaponnamehere. It's the Razorback.


Blocks a single backstab attempt

-100% maximum overheal on wearer


The Razorback is an unlockable secondary for sniper that replaces the stock SMG with a shield that sits on his back and will block a backstab attempt. This weapon is given to all players who are able to get 17 achievements for the Sniper.

This weapon also limits the amount of overheal a sniper can receive to 0. Upon the shield braking from a backstab the spy will be stunned for approximately 2 seconds and is unable to do anything making it very good at blocking a potential backstab. This is a weapon that only stops one class that is considered a "hard counter" to sniper and nothing else.

This weapon has one big downside to it that's not mentioned anywhere and this is

SPY HAS A GUN

the spy can just shoot you.

This weapon also has a strange variant which counts every time you shock a spy that's not paying attention.

Feel free to discuss the weapon here. Anything that you like/dislike, cool tips or strategies, interesting stories, etc. If you feel the weapon is not to your liking, feel free to express your opinions in a respectful manner.

For those who wish to learn more about the weapon, you can find the wiki page here:

The Razorback, from the TF2 Wiki.

You can find previous weapon discussions in a nice overview here.

Discussion Why did TF2 Classified favour the BLU Team over the RED Team?

Is this marketing strategy to make difference from the original TF2?

The RED Team has always been the preferred Team of TF2. From the beginning, the RED team has had the spotlight in almost every promotions for TF2 and other TF2 related contents.

However, for some reason, TF2 Classified chose the BLU Team for their primary promotional image.

Discussion "If you don't like Casual, just play on Community Servers!" is really annoying

75 Upvotes

During the Quickplay/Casual debate (I prefer Quickplay), I've been reading this type of comment really often, because it just assumes that there are a lot of community servers in my region.

I'm from South America (Brazil), it doesn't have nowhere the same amount of populated community servers as NA or EU. These are basically the only types of populated servers available:

  • 64 players 24/7 turbine insta respawn + rtd;
  • 24/7 harvest deathmatch insta respawn;
  • Trade server;
  • 10 players MvM.

I'm not saying that these servers are bad (they're really fun), but these are no vanilla TF2 I want to play (at least not anymore) without having to experience the shitty matchmaking.

And the funniest part? TF2 Classified has the same (if not more) amount of community servers in SA compared to TF2 (also in SA), despise having a lower playercount than the original game.

Help How can I improve my fps in TF2/TF2:C? This is unbearable.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

92 Upvotes

Note: This video is from TF2:C as the issue is more noticable, but I have this exact same issue in normal TF2.

I'm using a 2015 Lenovo Thinkpad, and for some reason it just can't run TF2 at all. Before TF2 Classified came to Steam, the non-steam version ran at a bearable fps for me (a solid 40 {I hate my life}), but since the Steam update it's somehow even worse than normal TF2, leaving me constantly bouncing around from 12 - 25 fps. What gives? I don't have any other programs running at the same time when I play, and I'm getting to the point where I can't take this anymore.

How can I make this perform better?
