Team Fortress 2

[WaffleBaron]

Anyone else gonna grab it? Got Fortress Forever and its just like TFC, just waiting for 10/10

[fire1811]

Im sure I will add it to my collection of games

[Will Wood]

I'm thinking about getting it. I loved TFC to death. I got out of the PC game scene lately just playing the occasional Halo or Madden but I think this is too good to pass up.

Hmm, I've been too lazy to read the requirements for PC..

Is it compatible with XP or must I get vista to play it?

[fire1811]

I actually might just get the Orange box for xbox 360 instead of PC version

[Indignant]

my friend got the beta since he bought orange box, we purchased HL2 and the episodes and all that jazz as they came though. no use in spending all that money just for portal which i'm not even that interested in

[Blazestorm]

$15 more for HL2, Episode 1 and 2 which you could sell to a friend for $20 (then send as a "gift")

Seems like a deal to me :P

This is by far the most fun I've had playing online games in a good 3-4 years

ok huge question, I havn't found any place confirming it, but also not denying it.

Can medics still plague the enemy?!
I was a huge player of Medic in the first one, and I killed ALOT of people through the poison.
And the syringe gun, is that basically the nail gun? No more shotty either?

[personman]

Medics cant plague the enemy. No more bigass shotty, only the pussy one. Absolutely no grenades except for the demoman's launcher. Syringe gun = super nail gun (seems a little watered down though)
Very disappointing for me. I hope they fix some of this stuff. Otherwise its pretty fun to play.

[Will Wood]

Yea, the medic being different might sway me away from buying it.
I played medic about 90% of the time, wasn't a big fan of the other classes. Usually would be sniper or spy if not medic.

I'll get it maybe later on, wait till maybe it gets cheaper.

[SummaryJudgement]

Team Fortress?

Is this Quake you are discussing?

[Will Wood]

Originally.
Then it because a sweet Half-Life Mod, now it's sequel comes with Orange Box.

[SummaryJudgement]

Orange box?

I'm starting to feel behind in the times. The last time I played Quake was Weapons Factory Arena, WHICH I FRIGGIN LOVE! However, as far as first person shooters go, I've been doing the Battlefiled 2142 thing for a while...............

[personman]

Wow... seriously? haha
I remember playing the old quake team fortress as well, but how did you miss team fortress classic for half life? It was a huge mod. Team Fortress 2 is based off the Half life 2 engine I believe.

You guys are upset that they actually gave the Medic a support role?

It's cool keeping a squad of guys alive and working with them to mow through a defense so you can cap a point/win, you get assists for every kill they get while you're healing them, so you get points on the scoreboard too

Still the most fun I've had in a long time.
