Still just playing Team Fortress 2. This is how it usually goes with me; I pick one or two games at a time and play em into the ground. Relearning how to play Scout, which I was never very good at to begin with. Takes a lot of twitchy reflexes and quick reaction time, even moreso than the other classes except perhaps Sniper when flick-shotting.

I tried TF2 finally. And I got kicked out of every match for "being a bot". That's not fun at all.

I personally recommend against casual play, even though it's the most popular mode, specifically because it is unpredictably crap like this. Check the community server browser for a server running a vanilla game mode instead; the only concern may be that, depending on which one you pick, the average skill level may be higher, but with something like Skial that won't be an issue.
