I may check it out because I have been thinking of buying TF2 for a while but all that unbrindled blood splattering, flying body parts and all that kind of violence isn't that much for my liking.
Be careful, TF2 is a few Gigabytes large, it nearly ate up all my bandwidth when i got it. When it was actually released, i couldn't get episode 2 and portal on day one.
Because of TF2, I feel a part of my childhood playing TF and TFC was wasted time I will never get back.
I still haven't gotten around to playing ep2 yet... --Or ep1, or LostCoast. What a noob I've been. I haven't even played HalfLife all the way through, haha. Multi-Player > (Single Player + Sour Patch Kids) x 2
Well... TF2 is nice but I saw everything in it within... 6 hours of playing. Only some achivements are still missing. It is nice but I won't buy it but I will play it as long as it is still free.
If I ever buy it, don't challenge me as soldier. ;P Maggots. Man I love how he screams when you press taunt key while your holding the shovel. It's so awesome when you have blasted a lot of enemies with your bazooka and then once in a while go totally mad and scream while holding your shovel. =D
lol the free weekend made me order the game since it TOTALLY ROCKS !!!!!!!!!!, and its available in a store very nearby
Its fun for a bit...but gets really samey. They have shifted the the focus from capture the flag to capturing sequential points which fucks the whole offense/defense balancing and rhythm to me. Towards the end, I only played on 24h 2Fort servers. I may check out Fortress Forever, but it will cut into my Empires time....
I took me a while to realise what the problem was. As it stands in most maps there is just a shifting battlefront which turns every game into a nonstop clusterfuck. It just gets boring. 2Fort gives you different options...should I attack or defend? Take this route or that route? Keeps it interesting. Its one of the reasons I love Empires....lots of variety.
I think I almost cried on the map I was playing where evryone but three players were demo-mans, all spamming a single corner. Inspired to go play classic TF now ^,^; Gonna get my pyro on. Look at the name Team Fortress... See the word Fortress? There is no Fortress in Team Fortress 2 >.<
Yeah! I was just thinking about that too. Shame really. But oooh! Don't the classes have so much personality! /sigh
