Valve Preparing Biggest Team Fortress 2 Update Ever

[new_age_reject]

The game has been changed beyond all recognition and the only way you can get the extra weapons is simply by playing for a long time and pure luck.
It's become so difficult for people just coming into the game and for those of us that haven't played it for a while. It's not fun any more because you just get destroyed by some guy who plays the game 40 hours a week who has all the weapons.

Which is why most of the professionals still use the vanilla weapons because they're mostly better.

The only real change is the Demoknights - everything else is situational. Especially for Pyros/Spy/Heavy/Medic. They simply play best with vanilla.

Good. Really looking forward to Meet the Medic, and i wanna see what sweet stuff he's gonna get.
Gotta play more TF2, i think. Wait, why am i blabbering here while i could play the game ?!

/runs away to play some TF2

Finally. The Medic is the most underrated class.

I heard the Pyro video was going to be First Person from the pyros perspective.

*coughs*

Sniper

Haven't found a single new weapon for Sniper I like. Well, maybe Jarate but my good old SMG does the trick.

I'm still waiting for the meet the Pyro video. Which will be at this rate in... 2014... with a library of over 1 million hats.

 

[Sizzle Montyjing]

The fact that these updates are still going is making me seriously think about what platform i should be on.
I really need a more game-happy PC.
Dammit!
I LOVE TF2!

Need i remind you of the Übersaw?

 

[Jamous]

Excellent; I'm looking very much forward to getting my PC back up to scratch to play this.

 

[TitanAtlas]

Theyre holding the Meet the Pyro for the most amazing update in teh history of updates!!!!

 

[Ekit]

I'm a TF2 player but I don't think of all these updates as "Valve giving me love". I hate that they constantly have to make a fun game more and more complicated and I hate that I can't stop playing for a few months, come back and not have to worry about new weapons and how to counter them.

Need i remind you of the Übersaw?

20% slower swing and can't do the violin animation.

Possibly the Ubersaw would be swapped in, but I don't play Medic much.

The violin sound got patched in, it makes a deeper sound and resembles some other instrument that I can't quite put my finger on and frankly... having to hit four times to get an uber is too good to pass up

I wonder if it will go on sale for the update... if so I will finally get in on this despite still having like 20 un-played steam games...

Dont get me wrong, I enjoyed TF2 for a while but even though its only 10 bucks or something equally cheap, I couldnt justify a purchase again. Liked it when it came out, played it for a while on xbox, and im done with it now.

(inb4 omg u played on xbox lol pc masterrace u mad, shut up, I didnt have a good pc back then so I had no choice)

I'd encourage you to get it on PC. It's such a bigger and better game with all of the updates they've added and AFAIK the consoles didn't get any of the updates because Valve got mad at Microsoft and Sony. Plus there's a ridiculous number of maps with new ones made all the time, and a few custom game types - WarioWare is awesomely fun, and there's also Prop Hunt which is a fantastic time. Honestly for the sheer amount of game you get with the purchase I think it's worth $50. It's definitely worth $10 and a second look.

And before anyone else says "lol hatz ruined TF2" - you're grossly over-exaggerating, or you're playing on really crappy servers.

MEET THE PYRO OFMGFOGMF!

Edit: I was ninja'd by many.

 

[GLo Jones]

Well of the measly 7 hours I've clocked up on the PC version of TF2, I can safely say that at least 5 of them were playing as the medic. I can't wait.

 

[Grufflenark]

Scrapyard Wednesday tomorrow.

I'M CALLING IT!

It's free for a week. GO, GO, GO!

In all seriousness, it's a very fun game made even better by its absolute refusal to take itself seriously. I think I'm possibly the only person who's fine with all the hat business, because I think it fits the general silly tone of the game.

 

[Super Toast]

I love you Valve. Seriously. I have an unhealthy obsession with you.
