What do i do if i'm too shy to play on an online server in tf2?

A couple of months ago I downloaded the class-based first-person shooter game "Team Fortress 2". I enjoy playing the game, but only against bots. I'm just too shy and anxious to play on an actual server.

I would be more than happy with playing with you. 4
What's TF2? 4
I'd play with you, but I don't have TF2. 6
Man up, you wimp. 7
Just stop playing altogether. 1
TF2 is fucking trash smh 3
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I probably wasted a year of my life in total playing TF and TF2 back in the day.

    It's a pretty extreme form of shyness to be reluctant to log on to a public server and play as a generic avatar with a bunch of random strangers who are also avatars. They can't actually see you, you know. If you're afraid of looking like a noob, who gives a shit? There'll always be someone better and faster than you. You don't have to pay any attention to the trash talk in chat if you don't want to.

      Sometimes you just want to relax, play a game in your head, and escape, and not have to deal with real people, kinda like reading a book. Just you and your brain. Best therapy ever booj

      Yes, I see...
      Thank you, for being so kind as to giving me such advice. I myself don't exactly know why I'm so timid at times like this. Oh well.

  • Why not just play a single player game instead? They're more fun anyways. You can actually focus on playing without being called incoherent profanity by children.

    I can show ya "some" ropes. I used to run a Waste Management business over at some Jailbreak servers. Kind of took a break from Steam eversince I had to go with my Uncle Sonny back to Queens to wack some guy who slept with the grandma of his wife's sister's stepdaughter's niece. She handed out the contract. But once I get a new microphone i'll see if I can help ya out. Just hit me up.

      Hey Tony, "quando viene data omertà, è attesa l'omertà" if you hear what I'm saying. So you ever manage human trash, like the kind that isn't breathing?

        Ti sento'. I hear ya buddy. And yeah, we do. Tony Lasagna personally likes handling those jobs a lot better. Mainly 'cause the trash never talks back. Well, obviously, heh!

          Respectfully, I would say that the trash may have learned omertà the hard way. Business is business.
