Tried looking for it: https://www.skial.com/search/13560598/?q=class+restriction&o=date&c[node]=13

Anyways, a bunch of fuck and sucks from some shithole corner of TF2 have ventured into our lovely server and disgraced it with sniping. Said fuck and sucks have been banned from their previous servers and brought their shit here. I'm talking 4 snipers a fucking team, with at least 2 with a pocket of their own.

Fuck them. Go to Snipezilla.

I'm calling for a max of 2 snipers. A vote option preferably since its not ALWAYS that bad.

I don't see pyro or spy get overplayed like sniper on this server.

I would love to see a limit on snipers but at times mainly because I hate getting killed by them and I also don't play that class. Also because anymore then 1-2 snipers on a team is counter-productive to the objective.

Pyros are just as bad at the end of a round when the cart is going in. Everyone on red goes pyro. (Mostly badwater)

I see lots of spies too but that's normally because nobody is playing pyro or someone is but they aren't spy checking. As soon as more people play pyro and check then the spies disappear.

So....sure.....any reduction in snipers I will vote for!

+1

Truth is that the quality and quantity of snipers has gone up.

And the truth hurts my little demoman head.

I can't say I'm for this or against this because on one hand yes 4 good snipers on the other team can be annoying, but then that's just a good player on the other team.

I like a challenge myself and I think if you are struggling with a few snipers then maybe your team needs to step it up.

I for one don't agree to limit a class in general however in attack and defend ect and the offensive team is more defense class I do think there's a problem even if you have one good player who may try carry a team.
I am by no means a great sniper I don't play just one class it gets boring to do so that said when I go sniper and am dominating there better snipers with little effort mean by learning a little of every class you can do well. I think everyone should play outside there comfort class every now then.

While I find 8 snipers on a team annoying, I don't feel its a good idea to start limiting what people want to play, especially on a pub server.

The "its all for the objective" argument doesn't hold up well in pub servers IMO. Most people on pub servers don't concern themselves much with winning, they're just there for fun. Trying to limit what they can play so your chances of winning are increased is just punishing the casual masses in favor of the few who want to "tryhard" on a pub server

I'll take 8 snipers over Skial running some players away with class limits
