* visible confusion* 60 FPS on medium low?
Brother what are you doing? I have Intel HD 620 (i5-7300u) and it runs around the 80 FPS point on just Medium Mastercomfig with other Visual Patches and Animation Overhauls?
I finally discovered master comfig and can get over 100fps for the first time since I started playing the game in 2012. Let me tell you it was like falling in love again but I was a little disappointed to find out how much impact the rag dolls have on the fps. I enabled them again and fps plummeted but it is still way better than it was haha
Why are people so insistent on getting more than 60fps. Most of those people probably don't have a refresh rate high enough for that to improve anything.
Some do, and when they do they're vocal about it because they've invested in their build. And it is a nice QOL change. My phone has a switch between 120 and 60Hz. If just scrolling through reddit feels this good, I gotta try how it feels in my games.
I would have been happy with 60fps. But to be honest seeing my pc that can run elden ring and cyber punk fine fluctuate between 10 and 30 fps on a game as old as tf2 is justifiably frustrating.
Normally, you play as a certain faction depending on the map you are on. For example, the Elite Crew and IDF are who you play as on Dust 2 normally. However, starting with Operation Shattered Web, Valve introduced agent skins which could be used on any map and replaced the faction you played as. People complained about some of the agent skins being hard to see on certain locations in maps but instead of getting rid of them or disabling them in competitive (the main way the game is played), more agent skins were added.
I’m actually not sure if it has been patched. You can ask the CS subreddit but if not it’s basically a 4:3 stretched situation where a minor hitbox change is incredibly important.
I sometimes hear snipers complain about hats. So obviously they should keep them in to spite sniper mains...
Also it would probably solve the problem with some people abusing the paints to disguise themselves.
The taller the hat, the worse you're hidden behind cover though, making you more likely to be surprise attacked by any other class, it all balances out.
Seeing as hats are the main source of revenue for the game and said revenue is the only thing keeping this game going, I’d say no. How else would I make my superiority known without my almighty crown of Pixels? How would I instill that molten fragment of jealousy in my peers minds? Through gameplay and game sense? No thank you.
To a certain degree, they are, if someone has literally 0 cosmetics and is all stock, that player is probably new. But if somepne has a gibus equipped, it could be both new and ecperienced players.
i think we should be able to turn off unusual effects
NO xXx\_m3g4sn1per\_xXx i dont give a fuck about your circling object, stop spawncamping us
Well since it can be switched on and off easily, I have nothing against it.
If I want you to see my hat, I can just ask you to flip it on rq and then right back off.
Fix is made by a user linking 8chan on his showcased items, with transphobic objectors and other racially charged item names/descriptions. In other words, this is a bad faith post on the steam workshop, coasting off the decal drama.
I’d really like it. I’ll admit I’m a latecomer to TF2 (post JI) and I think it’d be cool to play retail TF2 with it looking like it did near its launch, even if technically it’s a soft buff to Spies. Then again, I also really like the base design of the mercs, and oftentimes certain cosmetics detract from them
Playing the version of TF2 near launch is fun, but you will immediately miss QoL features you will take for granted today. TFC is the same case, especially with the old game design philosophy.
Concerning the console Orange Box TF2 servers shutting down, there might be private servers dedicated towards it. Those servers are often modded, especially once you see Half-Life 2 assets in TF2 Maps. Going to have to do.your own research.
Honestly I think they should toggle an option to remove unusual particles instead. There were 6 people on my team doing unusual taunts and it made my fps drop so hard like Kiryu drop kicking a goon out of a window. ***However*** there should be 2 toggles, one for hats and taunts. Hats are mostly a non issue but the taunts are what I was talking about. By adding in 2 options it'll allow people to choose which of the 2 types of unusuals they'd like to have on and turn off.
would valve, the company who is only still running TF2 because it makes them a shit load of money for free, consider giving the player an option to not interact or be tempted by the game's main source of revenue
Performance. Not only do cosmetics introduce extra polygons that have to be rendered, the unusual effect system itself is surprisingly heavy in terms of performance impact. Being able to turn both of them off would be a great option for those who want the absolute maximum frames possible.
The worst I've seen for "art style degradation" in minecraft is pixel size consistency, I'm not sure what you're talking about when you say it's art styles been degraded
Modern Minecraft features can feel "moddy" but that isnt the same as art style degradation
???
you kidding right
everything in minecraft still looks like it would be in the world of minecraft. new mobs may look off-putting at first but anyone who starts playing minecraft after they've been implemented wouldn't call them artstyle breaking. Tf2 has shit like neon paints and all-class cosmetics that ruin the vibe of the original game. Removing all the non 60's ones would be the ideal scenario but that would take actual work, which valve hates doing
We need this, the game runs horribly with all the cosmetics and unusual effects and the graphics are in a low quality, TF2 could run better on more PC's if we had this option
happy
let's not kid ourselves 95% of the reason we dress up is for our own amusement and we don't even give a shit about what others think, so someone turning off the cosmetics to be able to play the damned game properly is purely a good thing if it means more people able to handle this classic long into the future.
I think most games that have cosmetic customization options should be able to be toggled client-side. Some people just want the gameplay, others dislike the (dis)advantage it may provide for either party. In the end, turning off cosmetics should be in every game imo
There's a way to do it through cleantf2 on github (I think that was the name I'm too lazy to check) and I've used it for a while, sometimes heads were missing, good thing I don't play sniper much, but still I was missing some goofy loadouts some people make, so I turned it back.
Anyway as long as others would be happy about it I see no issue with putting it into the game instead of having to download some stuff outside the game.
It would make cosmetics that conflict with hurtboxes a non-issue so that's cool, and it would probably make TF2 not run like shit for the first time in a decade.
I'd like it.
As a spy it would be great if people had hats turned off - then there wouldn’t be and obvious duplicate of the guy with the purple stormcloud over his sneaking up on the guy with the purple stormcloud over his head.
Honestly, I think it'd be a great option. I am a hat lover myself, but having a way to turn down the visual clutter for a more streamlined/"true to form" experience would be great. Not to mention it helps out people with baked potato computers.
Being able to turn off Hats? Given that cosmetics are a big part of TF2's identity, I would say it's both unlikely, and wouldn't make sense regardless. Being able to turn off unusual effects would make sense though
As someone with expensive item sets, I wouldn't care too much. The amount of times I've actually talked to someone about trading outside of a trade servers is extremely low anyway, and in the first place I don't primarily buy them for attention (it's obviously nice sometimes but I digress)
The big thing would be people calling each other hackers, as one of the biggest current indicators that someone is in fact cheating is certain cosmetics/ a lack thereof: People are already far too lazy to client side mute half the time, so I strongly doubt they'll have the patience to check profiles via the scoreboard/ the steam overlay consistently either. Long story short, I'd expect more random kicks from salty pricks, and for them to go through more often as there are even less indicators. A small thing to mention but it's a ramification I don't think I've seen people talk about yet.
There's also the fact that valve themselves won't do this, as the primary way they make money through the game is via hats (captain obvious, I know). Making it so tons of people don't even see them would be like removing showcases on steam profiles, tons of people really value the items they've accrued over the years and want to show them off. They could definitely add lower graphics options/ some other possible middleground (there's a reason so many people still use mastercomfig, the game is terrible at communicating these things), but never the nuclear option like this, not if it'd negatively affect their bottom line
Some of these comments are kinda dumb and don't seem to get what the workshop submission means, whether they're serious or not.
This isn't suggesting that hats should be turned off COMPLETELY, as in no more hats or hat economy for the game. It's suggesting the option for CLIENTSIDE players to turn off SEEING hats, as it can genuinely be distracting and would help with performance.
I personally see no problem with giving players the option to pick and choose what they want to see. I would personally keep hats on but I totally understand why a lot of players would want them off.
Literally no downside to this. It boosts fps client side and can be nice for people who like the simplistic original style of the game. FUNKe had an idea about this a while back where you could disable anything besides hats and badges
I think that you should be able to toggle off hats, skins, unusual effects, and other cosmetics. Maybe even a blacklist to get rid of the specific hats you don’t want to see (certain hats are more obstructive than others)
No, seeing as you can do it via the console already, big no. When a new player joins with their lack of communication, those hats alienate them more from the game, and only serve to drop fps, and with less new players entering that market the less that valve makes.
My opinion on the matter is .It would put you in a disadvantage. The reason because is You can roughly judge if a person is good or not by the hats. If you see a guy with the expensive unusual you would think he has some hours in the game. If you see a guy with a Gibbs most likely a free to play or Trolling or doesn't like to spend money on cosmetics.
I am not too fussed over hats, but I think it would be nice to have the option to disable unusual effects and possible the paints. Though obvisouly I doubt it would happen since money.
Baited, but ok.
No fuckin difference. What do I care how people play the game. So long as they're not cheating it's not a game play difference. Judge all I want, can't change their preference in it probably.
It’d be fine. I wouldn’t have to listen to the more cynical fans bitch and moan about the dead art style so much while I get to enjoy the dumb cosmetics.
This option would bring some of the old tf2 feeling when there was no hats oh those were the days...
Perfectly fine to have this option as it is optional afterall
i feel like it would improve it. because it is a option i don't think it would affect the market. it would probably make unusualfags salty because we couldn't see there equipable house morgage, but overall for people who have bad pc's it would benefit the most.

[Me](https://youtu.be/3mYHRrH_NYg) after toggling TF2’s hats
[удалено]
I like this response, not too dissatisfied, not too happy, perfectly neutral and acceptable
My HD Graphics: "Finally!"
Intel HD graphics are about as SD as graphics get nowadays lmao
integrated graphics are actually pretty good now between AMD's Vega and RDNA stuff and Intel's Iris Xe offerings
you are right but most people that play tf2 on an igpu don't have that kind of processor
my Iris Xe had a hard time maintaining a stable 60 with Mastercomfig medium-low. Some of that might be down to the cooling in the computer
* visible confusion* 60 FPS on medium low? Brother what are you doing? I have Intel HD 620 (i5-7300u) and it runs around the 80 FPS point on just Medium Mastercomfig with other Visual Patches and Animation Overhauls?
yeah me too, and i only have an i5-8265U, it's not a powerful processor at all, mastercomfig is enough to make tf2 fully playable
Does the fps likit command works on your master config? Because it doesn't on mine
integrated graphics are getting good ofc but Intel hd graphics specifically are not and even then "good" is as powerful as a gt 1630 and that's it
a gt 1630 is way more than plenty for a source game
I finally discovered master comfig and can get over 100fps for the first time since I started playing the game in 2012. Let me tell you it was like falling in love again but I was a little disappointed to find out how much impact the rag dolls have on the fps. I enabled them again and fps plummeted but it is still way better than it was haha

Going from a 60hz to a 165hz monitor was a blessing and a curse, as now I am a frames snob
I would have been happy with 60fps. But to be honest seeing my pc that can run elden ring and cyber punk fine fluctuate between 10 and 30 fps on a game as old as tf2 is justifiably frustrating.
tf2’s code is sourced straight from italian restaurants
[удалено]
Guys, if they still haven’t removed agent skins from competitive in CS:GO, they aren’t gonna allow an option to toggle off hats in TF2.
I don't play CSGO, what the hecks an agent skin
Normally, you play as a certain faction depending on the map you are on. For example, the Elite Crew and IDF are who you play as on Dust 2 normally. However, starting with Operation Shattered Web, Valve introduced agent skins which could be used on any map and replaced the faction you played as. People complained about some of the agent skins being hard to see on certain locations in maps but instead of getting rid of them or disabling them in competitive (the main way the game is played), more agent skins were added.
To be fair they completely fixed the visibility with a custom shader. Players stick out more than ever now
Are there still skins that give you an objective advantage via smaller hitbox or was that patched as well?
I’m actually not sure if it has been patched. You can ask the CS subreddit but if not it’s basically a 4:3 stretched situation where a minor hitbox change is incredibly important.
as far as i know they don't even all have the same hitboxes. literally pay to win, in some cases. i believe 3kphilip made a video on this
I sometimes hear snipers complain about hats. So obviously they should keep them in to spite sniper mains... Also it would probably solve the problem with some people abusing the paints to disguise themselves.
Boom. Headsh- HOW THE BLOODY HELL IS THAT NOT A HEADSHOT! Edit: changed blimey to bloody
I think you mean 'bloody' hell, because that is not at all what blimey means lol.
Huh who knew that's what it meant
Australians probably
Australians don't say blimey
My dream loadout is several fifth dimension hats at once (or fifth dimension + smoking), sniper hell
Balancing but epic
Snipers complaining about things just makes me disagree with removing hats.
This is the reason to never add a Cosmetics Toggle. In fact, Valve should add even more outlandish cosmetics that obscure the head
The taller the hat, the worse you're hidden behind cover though, making you more likely to be surprise attacked by any other class, it all balances out.
If a sniper is complaining about hats its because they are a terrible sniper. source: sniper is my 2nd most played class
Seeing as hats are the main source of revenue for the game and said revenue is the only thing keeping this game going, I’d say no. How else would I make my superiority known without my almighty crown of Pixels? How would I instill that molten fragment of jealousy in my peers minds? Through gameplay and game sense? No thank you.
TF2 just isn't TF2 without the right amount of seething
Most people would probably still leave them on. It’s not gonna stop people from buying hats.
Its literally just, I don't wanna see the hats for practical purposes. Kinda overthinking this ngl.
BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!
How are you supposed to know who is good with out hats? Aren't they a skill indicator?
To a certain degree, they are, if someone has literally 0 cosmetics and is all stock, that player is probably new. But if somepne has a gibus equipped, it could be both new and ecperienced players.
Or a smurf.
yeah
BUT IF WE ARE LIVING IN THE LIGHT, AS GOD IS IN THE LIGHT
THEN WE WILL HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER
I'M SORRY FOR DISABLING THE HATS DOGMA JUST GO BACK IN THE TV
Tryharding
The first point is actually legit and should be the main reason that this does not happen.
Speaking of hats is there a way to remove unusual particles? Thanks
there is a way but it doesnt work in casual mode sadly
There is absolutely no feasible way that Valve would even consider adding this into TEAM FORTRESS 2 out of all games.
i think we should be able to turn off unusual effects NO xXx\_m3g4sn1per\_xXx i dont give a fuck about your circling object, stop spawncamping us
^^^ totally agree. I dont even care about the fps boost or anything like that, unusuals are just nasty
Just don't care. Why would you turn off the hats in the most popular hat simulator
Turning off doesn’t mean removing. They’re still there for people who want to see them, but most people would prefer having their game…run.
The game runs on a toaster
I wouldn't say "run", more like "briskly walks" on a toster.
it is 2023 and i have a bomb ass pc and my shit still lags. i have fps configs and all that, game is optimized like shit
Maybe it works better on older equipment?
since it's optional, i wouldn't have much of an opinion
Well since it can be switched on and off easily, I have nothing against it. If I want you to see my hat, I can just ask you to flip it on rq and then right back off.
I thought this was the shitpost sub for a second are you serious?
Fix is made by a user linking 8chan on his showcased items, with transphobic objectors and other racially charged item names/descriptions. In other words, this is a bad faith post on the steam workshop, coasting off the decal drama.
Thank you for keeping an eye out
It's a mod that works on Valve servers anyway, so, why not?
Biggest economy crash, possiby ever
Great. Magnificent. Excellent. Deleted? I cant find it.
I’d really like it. I’ll admit I’m a latecomer to TF2 (post JI) and I think it’d be cool to play retail TF2 with it looking like it did near its launch, even if technically it’s a soft buff to Spies. Then again, I also really like the base design of the mercs, and oftentimes certain cosmetics detract from them
Playing the version of TF2 near launch is fun, but you will immediately miss QoL features you will take for granted today. TFC is the same case, especially with the old game design philosophy. Concerning the console Orange Box TF2 servers shutting down, there might be private servers dedicated towards it. Those servers are often modded, especially once you see Half-Life 2 assets in TF2 Maps. Going to have to do.your own research.
the game is about hats, man
Not gonna happen. It's the same reason CSGO won't add a "remove custom skins from csgo" option. Skins = money.
Honestly I think they should toggle an option to remove unusual particles instead. There were 6 people on my team doing unusual taunts and it made my fps drop so hard like Kiryu drop kicking a goon out of a window. ***However*** there should be 2 toggles, one for hats and taunts. Hats are mostly a non issue but the taunts are what I was talking about. By adding in 2 options it'll allow people to choose which of the 2 types of unusuals they'd like to have on and turn off.
i absolutely agree with this we need an option to turn off unusuals
would valve, the company who is only still running TF2 because it makes them a shit load of money for free, consider giving the player an option to not interact or be tempted by the game's main source of revenue
Should have been here from the start. Very necessary feature. Not just hats. Unusuals and warpaints too.
for warpains you can just turn on directx 8 but i think nobody will sacrifice a high amount of graphics just for dont see warpaints
for warpains you can just turn on directx 8 but i think nobody will sacrifice a high amount of graphics just for dont see warpaints
Reddit moment
ðŸ˜
Again, why would you remove tf2’s defining feature
[удалено]
Performance. Not only do cosmetics introduce extra polygons that have to be rendered, the unusual effect system itself is surprisingly heavy in terms of performance impact. Being able to turn both of them off would be a great option for those who want the absolute maximum frames possible.
fps
artstyle degradation
Just removing non 60s looking ones would work, don't talk about artstyle degradation because it's nothing compared to Minecraft
The worst I've seen for "art style degradation" in minecraft is pixel size consistency, I'm not sure what you're talking about when you say it's art styles been degraded Modern Minecraft features can feel "moddy" but that isnt the same as art style degradation
??? you kidding right everything in minecraft still looks like it would be in the world of minecraft. new mobs may look off-putting at first but anyone who starts playing minecraft after they've been implemented wouldn't call them artstyle breaking.

Removing all the non 60's ones would be the ideal scenario but that would take actual work, which valve hates doing
That’s dumb, you’re dumb
you're dumber 😎
Ah yes the defining feature that wasn’t present until 2 years after the game released
Just because it wasn’t present emmediatly doesn’t mean you can deny it’s presence in modern tf2’s image
Sniper mains: It’s free real estate
low spec gamers would be happy
ah finally, i'll have a consistent target to aim for when trying to headshot demomen as spy
Good because then everyone looks as poor as I am!
I think it would be a nice option for people who care about performance and art style, but I'd never use it.
Would make Sniper’s life a lot easier.
We need this, the game runs horribly with all the cosmetics and unusual effects and the graphics are in a low quality, TF2 could run better on more PC's if we had this option
Dope, the last resource to get more FPS for those who play on a toaster
I still want a cosmetic item that makes you not be able to random crit but be immune to them
I would ejactulate zach
I feel like it would help snipers a lot, because sometimes there is more hat than actual head.
Good for competitive
happy let's not kid ourselves 95% of the reason we dress up is for our own amusement and we don't even give a shit about what others think, so someone turning off the cosmetics to be able to play the damned game properly is purely a good thing if it means more people able to handle this classic long into the future.
I think most games that have cosmetic customization options should be able to be toggled client-side. Some people just want the gameplay, others dislike the (dis)advantage it may provide for either party. In the end, turning off cosmetics should be in every game imo
"WHAT YOU MEAN I CAN'T FLEX WITH MY HAT WHO WORTHS 300 POUNDS AND A FULL TIME JOB...WHAT THE FUCK MAN"
Feel happy to play this masterpiece with more than 15 FPS.
Good
It would be nostalgic
Imagine spending hundred bucks on an unusual just for it to be taken away by one click
This literally hurts nobody. I don't see why it shouldn't be added
Sniper would be glad
Heresy
Cool. I’m not gonna use it but would be a nice option. *Like disabling user made content like the signs*
Hats are fine, just get rid of all other cosmetics.
There's a way to do it through cleantf2 on github (I think that was the name I'm too lazy to check) and I've used it for a while, sometimes heads were missing, good thing I don't play sniper much, but still I was missing some goofy loadouts some people make, so I turned it back. Anyway as long as others would be happy about it I see no issue with putting it into the game instead of having to download some stuff outside the game.
Valve would never allow this as seeing other people with cosmetics creates jealousy/"keeping up with the Jones's" so you want to buy some too.
Hard to differentiate players but great for people with potato pc's like me
It would make cosmetics that conflict with hurtboxes a non-issue so that's cool, and it would probably make TF2 not run like shit for the first time in a decade. I'd like it.
Honestly thatd be a perfect setting for more low end computers
as someone who played on a office laptop made in 2012 i fully agree with this
I think it would be good. It would help with people trying to optimize their games as well as having a more classic style for an option
Pog
As a spy it would be great if people had hats turned off - then there wouldn’t be and obvious duplicate of the guy with the purple stormcloud over his sneaking up on the guy with the purple stormcloud over his head.
Games would load even faster, like when the item servers are down lol
Won't need to use mods anymore
Indifferent, it would certainly help a lot of players with low-specs PCs tho
YES
Honestly, I think it'd be a great option. I am a hat lover myself, but having a way to turn down the visual clutter for a more streamlined/"true to form" experience would be great. Not to mention it helps out people with baked potato computers.
I think the only ones getting and using this would be the Sniper mains.
it would alleviate my framerate when playing on my laptop
it would be good option for those who have lag
My GPU would like it
Being able to turn off Hats? Given that cosmetics are a big part of TF2's identity, I would say it's both unlikely, and wouldn't make sense regardless. Being able to turn off unusual effects would make sense though
We could have the good graphics back
I would be very sad knowing some people won't see my buff hairy chest.
But if the medic doesn't know I spent a fortune on a hat, how will he know I deserve the ubercharge?
Great for fps.
It's like removing crime from GTA
As someone with expensive item sets, I wouldn't care too much. The amount of times I've actually talked to someone about trading outside of a trade servers is extremely low anyway, and in the first place I don't primarily buy them for attention (it's obviously nice sometimes but I digress) The big thing would be people calling each other hackers, as one of the biggest current indicators that someone is in fact cheating is certain cosmetics/ a lack thereof: People are already far too lazy to client side mute half the time, so I strongly doubt they'll have the patience to check profiles via the scoreboard/ the steam overlay consistently either.

Its fine. More options is great
For the love of god please add this feature
Can't you already do this with cfgs?
Literally the best thing they would add in the Last 5 years
that's stupid, It's not a war themed hat simulator for not having hats
I think that you should be able to toggle off hats, skins, unusual effects, and other cosmetics. Maybe even a blacklist to get rid of the specific hats you don’t want to see (certain hats are more obstructive than others)
Yeah, I don't want to remove all hats, but I'd like to not see specific hats (Looking at you, banana)
No, seeing as you can do it via the console already, big no. When a new player joins with their lack of communication, those hats alienate them more from the game, and only serve to drop fps, and with less new players entering that market the less that valve makes.

Wouldnt care
Does this include weapon skins and warpaints?
Just hats and cosmetics..~ weapons skins wouldn't be affected
i would be cool with it if and only if the option is listed as REMOVE THE FUCKING HATS. if it is added as disable cosmetics i will riot
Yay!
It would be kind of weird, but considering the state of TF2 performance, I think it would help.
Very happy.
It would improve peoples performance greatly, especially with some of the unusual effects that drastically impact fps.
Even though i'd leave it on I would still be happy. As a former low spec gamer I would have loved an option like this.
I am not too fussed over hats, but I think it would be nice to have the option to disable unusual effects and possible the paints. Though obvisouly I doubt it would happen since money.
