Is Team Fortress 2 Coming to Mac Today?

[JC175]

"Team Fortress available on the Mac"?

Come on, Logan. I'm no authority on the subject, but I'm fairly certain that it would translate to "Cream sorceress available on the back."

Lets hope it comes out on mac today. I've been waiting for them to release tf2 ever since they announced steam for mac.

"Cream sorceress available on the back."

Oh, if only I were a bit more lewd and loud-mouthed... that would be a golden set-up line

EDIT: Wowza, didn't notice it before, but the Scout looks absolutely evil in that there picture.

Hopefully this means I'll be getting my multiplayer on today. I've played TF2 on the PS3 before (which, being the PlayStation version of the Orange Box, kind of sucked) and on the PC (which, being a shitty PC that couldn't run anything, kind of sucked), but this should be the definitive version for me--running at a steady frame rate, with a stable connection, and with all the post-release goodies (which, being fully functional, should be kind of awesome).

However, TF2 recently disappeared from my Steam library, and I'm not sure why. If it doesn't come back soon, I guess I'll have to talk to the tech support people and/or suck it up and buy another copy. I'll be sad if TF2 comes out today and I can't play it for a few days or weeks.

So factoring in Valve time, it should be released in about Q4 of 2011?

No, no. That's if they would have said "this summer".
"Tomorrow" means "later this week".

Hope they make some blockage so that people without 2nd mouse button can't log in on the same server as normal people? So we don't have snipers who can't snipe, heavies who are inferior in ambushing, medics without ubercharge, scouts without the ability to stun people with bats... okay, bad example, but demomen without the remote nades?

*yawn*

An old joke that hasn't improved with age. Apple stopped making single button mice about five years ago.

 

[Jared]

lol, the picture made me laugh.

And, would be cool for it to also be on Mac, after all, why shouldnt our Apple brothers also share in the glory which is TF2!

 

[Digikid]

Heh, C'mon free download of it like what they did with Portal. Cmooooooon.

Ditto that. The game is really NOT worth buying IMHO but a freebie would be excellent!

And obviously, all Mac people update their hardware as often as PC people... oh wait, no.

I love Valve's way of talking to the fans. Utterly genius company.

I guess some things are more important than, you know, releasing the batches of updates the Xbox 360 version is missing.

i think xbox couldnt bare with all the pc updates, they made our fps drop hard for us PC players being this the main reason why valve and possibly microsoft wont release the "full package" for Xbox. But they should atleast release a patch fixing some bugs and gitches, a few maps and maybe a game mode.

All the unlocks on the xbox would reduce a lot of gaming quality, unless you like to play it with 15fps then by my guest.

 

[jebussaves88]

It definitely is. It's listed as Coming Soon in the Steam Store.

 

[Not G. Ivingname]

Spoiler: Happy RAM!!!! I'll finally be able to kill all the guys who said (mac sucks) with a headshot.

OH GOD! IT'S GOING TO EAT ME!

Well considering the fact that the only Macs that can actually run Valve's games need intel chips, which were introduced after Apple stopped making one button mouse, I'd still say it's an unwarranted gripe.

Damn, ninja'd.

Now the real question is:

WILL IT BE CROSS-PLATFORM COMPATIBLE!?!?

Yes. http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=3578&p=1

 

[Chromwell]

Dare I get my hopes up for an engie update as well?

I think the day the Engi update comes out is the day I stop playing TF2 for at least a week or so. I'm REALLY not looking forward to 20 sentries in a room =[
