[PC] GFF Team Fortress 2 Crew!

Oh ho ho can AcerBandit be credit to team?

Lame. How many people does it take to make three new weapons, give it to a few people to beta test, and then release it. =\

Also, are you the reason I now can't seem to log onto steam, acer? >=(

Recently started playing TF2 again. It's definitely more fun when games are full of people you know.

Still can't stand those 24/7 2fort servers, though. How anyone can stand playing on them for more than a couple rounds is beyond me. Some people never even leave their base...

So with the new year coming up soon, we should expect to (hopefully) see some new patches. Has anyone heard anything of what could be happening in the next patch? Which class(es) will get achievements, any new maps, etc?

So far it's all about Left 4 Dead here and there. The TF2 team said that they'll get straight back to working on the updates for TF2, since they helped a bit with L4D.

Big-ass patch today, including huge huge changes:

* Teleports and dispensers now upgradeable to Lv. 2 & 3

* Spy cloaks now recharge from ammo packs and cabinets <- thank fucking god

* Goldrush 1 rebalanced to help break the defensive monopoly

* Bullets of any kind now "break apart" stickybombs (not sure what this means yet)

* Medic call icon now shows more information about the patient

* Bunch of sweet-ass particle effects

Also, the next class pack is the Scout, apparently.

Awesome. Awesome to the max.

Yes, these updates are really great. A welcome change seeing has how I've been neglecting this game for months. I hope to see you fuckers in the game more often now!

I play TF2 on occassion - Steam ID is The_Flowman

Add me and we'll play sometime.

Even though I'm not going to finish baking cookies until 3 AM, I'm still fucking playing this tonight.

Why were you baking cookies at 3am and not sharing some for the rest of us?


Also, the Engineer update is very nice, considering if you upgrade your Teleports to level 3, it charges up super fast, to the point where recharge is just about non-existant.

Finally something for engies to do besides griefing stragglers with their pistol.

And now camping teleporter exits will be ten times the fun!

I've only briefly tried the new updates so far, it's made the spy and engineer have quite a lot more flexibility then before, although I don't think strategy wise the engineer plays much different to before, he just has more to do once you have buildings set up.

My first thoughts was that the stickys would disappear instead of moving and that's pretty much exactly what the new update does, shooting a sticky destroys it. Seems kind of a strange bit of logic having a bullet able to destroy them and explosions just move them, but then again if explosions did it too then people would complain the demoman was underpowered now.

Hey guys, I decided to try playing TF2 again, so while its downloading and reinstallan to my HD, you can add me on steam: MrShinra

Is there a list of everyone's username = SteamID? Because I'm not sure who some of the people on there actually are.

well DN there is a list, dunno how updated but you can get a glimpse of a ton of people here, but yeah it could be missing some people about now. if you are going to play, depending on ping I might join, that's usually the problem for me, I don't have a good ping in most servers.

I'm usually some variant of "Indeed" on steam. I play TF2 like twenty hours a week, prefer to play with people I sort of know~

Ha. I've been wondering who this Indeed character was on my buddies list. Now that I know it's you, I'll probably be more apt to try to join up.
