Who plays Team Fortress 2? It's one of the best online multiplayer shooters I've ever seen, and is a nice break from total deathmatches. I usually play on a 2fort Payload server or a Badlands Arena server, and it's a ton of fun. Most of my play time is with the Spy, which I use a lot during Payload. What do you guys think of the game?

WHAT SICK MAN SENDS BABIES TO FIGHT!

Jaredvcxz · #3 December 2, 2009, 11:02:44 AM

The graphics are unique, but I'm not much for online.

Ditto616 · #4 December 2, 2009, 12:35:34 PM

This game is amazing. It's been awhile since I played it last, but I don't think I'm too bad as an Engineer.

GreenLiquid · #5 December 2, 2009, 03:16:23 PM

Team Fortress 2 is awesome, although I don't play it too often.

LiteTheIronMan · #6 December 3, 2009, 04:19:43 PM

EES FUNNY TO ME

You know, I'm gonna be upgrading to a new computer soon. Maybe I can pick up TF2 for my PC along with Steam.

Jaredvcxz · #7 December 3, 2009, 04:25:43 PM

Get the orange box.

LiteTheIronMan · #8 December 3, 2009, 06:56:13 PM

I don't want all those games though, just TF2. Besides, I haven't found the Orange Box around locally.

Jaredvcxz · #9 December 4, 2009, 10:52:23 AM

It's also downloadable.

Besides, the other ones a definitely worth playing.

Buizek · #10 December 11, 2009, 07:26:40 PM

I have this game and like 120 hours or so on it.
You guys seen the current Demoman Vs. Soldier war? It's awesome, whatever class gets the most kills of the other class gets a secret weapon.

Great game. Main game on PC.

LiteTheIronMan · #12 January 1, 2010, 09:10:30 PM

My Steam ID is litetheironman. No, you couldn't tell.

Luxray13579 · #13 January 1, 2010, 09:14:23 PM

I play that game when I go to my cousins place I'm awesome as the sniper and not to bad as spy!

Sableyed · #14 January 1, 2010, 09:29:50 PM

TF2 and Portal make me wish i wasn't a Nintendo/Mac exclusive person. *sigh*

Luxray13579 · #15 January 1, 2010, 09:32:49 PM

Yeah, your really missing out TF2 is AWESOME.

GreenLiquid · #16 January 2, 2010, 10:16:23 AM

OVERTIME.

I really liked the characterization that the Soldier vs. Demoman update gave to the Administrator. It was long overdue.

Serenade · #17 January 17, 2010, 02:07:40 AM

Add me, I'm [F]eather

I play well as:Engy, Spy, and Scout
I'm Ok as: Heavy, Soldier, Pyro, Medic and Sniper
And am hopeless as Demo.

I play A LOT of TF2, so look for me.

Ayunnuya · #18 April 1, 2010, 06:42:20 PM

I wish I owned it.
Wait a minute...
WHO TOUCHED MY GUN!?

Fubab_107 · #19 July 2, 2010, 10:17:34 AM

Sorry for a double post, But I think I should post a little update.

http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=4013&p=1

It hints at the update for the Engineer, as well as an entertaining comic to read.

Ningamer · #20 July 2, 2010, 01:33:59 PM

So yeah, am I a bit late?

I got TF2 a couple of days ago. Freakin' love it. Should I use a joypad? Or just a keyboard and touchpad (Touchpad is horrible for mouse-controlled FPSs). Wait... Can you even use a joypad for TF2?

Fubab_107 · #21 July 5, 2010, 04:37:50 PM

http://www.teamfortress.com/engineerupdate/

It's coming out, the last of the Class specific updates...for now maybe...

MysteryMasterJ · #22 July 7, 2010, 06:06:41 PM

@Ningamer
You can, but you need to make a .cfg for the joystick, and then edit controls to the configuration for you. If you have a 360 controller, you can download a file from the Steam TF2 support forums.

Really excited for the Engineer update because I play as him so much. The pistol replacement doesn't look to interesting unless you can use it from anywhere, but the shotgun replacement looks great. Haven't played a payload game yet, so I am hoping with the new maps I will be able to play them more. I hope they'll continue to give out Golden Wrenches, because me and my terrible luck will never get one.

Pikaluv1 · #23 July 7, 2010, 06:14:51 PM

Engineer is ok.
Heavy is the beast where I rock as him aslong I have medic, I rock.
Scout, I'll train on him more
Spy, training on his Electro sapper
Soilder, In training
Medic, I'm not used to him
Demoman, uhh no comment
Sniper, as long as I find a place to camp at, I'm ok
Pyro, In training

I'm trying to get used to Sniper, Pyro and Engineer.

PatJames · #24 July 7, 2010, 07:52:13 PM

This thread is also about hats

As of today I have 4-the Hustler's Hallmark, the Backbiter's Billycock, the Sergeant's Drill Helm, and the Vintage Tyrolean. I love them all.

In non-hat related news, I love this game. A lot. I play Demoman and Heavy and think I'm pretty good as both of them. The engineer update is pretty much my life at the moment

Fubab_107 · #25 July 8, 2010, 05:59:54 PM

Just a little announcement.

The engineer update is out. Now enjoy...

I did

Buizel456 · #27 July 18, 2010, 08:50:55 PM

Bump? NAWW, it's only been a week + 1 day.

You usually find me playing on TF2 Ware. If not, Mario Kart or Party Van. I'm pretty good with Spy, Pyro, Engineer, and Sniper. As for others... I need to work on them

Pikaluv1 · #28 July 19, 2010, 09:42:32 AM

Well, I got used to Pyro now, so.

TheAppleFreak · #29 July 19, 2010, 11:16:45 AM

I got the game a few days ago, and I'm getting used to the Engineer. I completely and totally suck at everything else, though.

MysteryMasterJ · #30 July 28, 2010, 05:18:55 PM

With the release of the Engineer update, I think they almost broke the class. Now every time I play on CP, the defending team is made up of about 6 engineers, and almost all of them spam wrangler. The mini-sentries are the ones they put up all over the cap point, so Scout rushing just became more difficult, and with these new players learning about engineers, almost none of them have learned about good placement of buildings.

Pikaluv1 · #31 August 1, 2010, 07:51:53 PM

Heh, when I was on a PL server, my team SUCKED. >_>

It's always like that, your either on the good team, the bad team or it's always just stalemates...

TheAppleFreak · #33 August 10, 2010, 06:26:05 PM

*pokes head into thread*

Oh god, I love TF2. My favorite class is the Engineer, though I've successfully handled the Medic well in some cases and apparently I'm not too bad with the Heavy.

You need to give me your steam so you can go to my server.

I was more referring to gameplay in general. But yeah, don't put buildings on the tracks....never ends well.

^wat. how are we gonna say something, what if you have nothing to say and many people doesn't post on this thread, so we just leave it down for no one to post?

Besides that, the polycount update looks awesome

Jaredvcxz · #38 September 3, 2010, 01:38:13 PM

Is there any webpage that shows out TF2 stats, or do we have to use HLStatsx?

You can go a person's steam profile, like http://steamcommunity.com/id/jaredvcxz/ , and look on their games list then click View Stats under the game listing. That'll give you a site like this: http://steamcommunity.com/id/jaredvcxz/stats/TF2 where you can see their stats, achievements, etc.

Just so you know, HLstatsX only saves info on that server, not your whole TF2 stats

Ah. I was wondering how that worked.

Fubab_107 · #43 September 30, 2010, 12:27:36 PM

Talk has been about the Pollycount for the past few months, it seems we're coming closer to release.
There is also News on Payable Items Players could obtain.
http://www.teamfortress.com/mannconomy/FAQ/
If you need more Questions, that may help.

With the update coming close, this may mean a drastic change to TF2...but who knows.

I've been playing almost exclusively as Scout and Heavy. Scout because basically his only problem is living long, and Heavy because basically his only problem is he's slow and I make a good Medic buddy.

Also, what's Polycount?

Fubab_107 · #45 September 30, 2010, 06:11:28 PM

PolyCount was an Update in which community made Item Packs for one class were customly made and voted by the community to see which people would like to see in game more.

It took place in July after the engineer update.
The pack winners were:
Delivery Man Themed Scout
Tank Buster Themed Soldier
Gas Station Attendant Themed Pyro
Crocodile Hunter Themed Sniper
Saharan Themed Spy

All packs coming with either new Weapons or a Hat.
All can be obtained via Random Drop, Crafting or the New ways of Trading, and Purchase with the Steam Wallet.

Also, what's Polycount?

I more or less play exclusively as the Engy and the Medic; my computer's GPU sucks so I can only render about 15 fps during regular running sequences, and it drops far lower when there's a firefight going on, so I rely on sentries for the fighting. Ditto for the Medic; since the fast-paced action in TF2 is more than my GPU can handle, I just heal spam. The stream usually stays on target during my framerate lag, which is good.

Also, I think Polycount is some sort of item-trading thingamabob. I dunno.

Fubab_107 · #47 September 30, 2010, 06:21:44 PM

On the Subject on Classes...

I'm more prone to play Soldier, Scout, Engineer or Medic for Various Reasons.

Soldier: I can rack in a few kills in a couple of seconds.
Scout: I like feeling fast, going in for the quick kill, retreating to heal and stock up, then going back in.
Engineer: More Laid back if I feel lazy.
Medic: Because I always love feeling useful in fights.
