Canama Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) TF2 is an insanely addictive, free-to-play FPS made by Valve. It can be downloaded via Steam. I decided to give it a try last month, and I found myself totally addicted. Any other players? P.S. If anyone wants a Strange Syringe Gun, I am selling one. -Canama Edited October 14, 2011 by Canama Quote man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight
lunaticCircuitry Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) F2P here.I thought I would play it a few times, but it's really grown on me since I downloaded it. Edited October 14, 2011 by lunaticCircuitry Quote

Erebus Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 There was a major update today, wasn't there? Looks like we have two misc. slots now and we can use decals for medals. And they finally gave an animation to the Hat of Undeniable Wealth and Respect. Quote

Skarloth Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Well, I tried to download Steam a while back, and I wanted to play TF2, but, my old rickety computer didn't want to play ANY games via Steam. None. So, I decided to upgrade the memory of said computer, and WHAM, the computer dies for some unknown reason. I could probably put Steam on this newer computer (not mine, jsyk), and play TF2 on it, but past experiences with Steam make me hesitant to do so. -Skar Quote
Necro Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Bought it shortly before it went F2P, and love it. Has anyone managed to find any of the new hats yet? Right when I think I'm done on trade servers, the list of stuff I need to buy gets huge. Quote

TF2 is not a very resource-intensive game.

Klak Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 I LOVE TEAM FORTRESS 2! It's amazing. If any of you spot someone named NotYourFuhrer, say "Hi Klak". Anyways, I am a F2P person, of course. Sadly, this is catching up to me, as there is only so much on man can put in his backpack. Are those mis. slots an improvement? What are your favorite classes?

lunaticCircuitry Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 My favorite classes are Medic, Engie, Pyro, Demo. I'll play others, though, when a situation calls for it.read: when i'm bored with them Quote

DYLAN the SINKING STAR Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Blek, Pyro lovers. Hate that class with a burning passion. (Get it?) Mostly because I'm a spy, but they can be pretty annoying while playing other classes too. And, by the way, Backburner is the most overpowered gun in the game, just putting that out there. Quote
lunaticCircuitry Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) And, by the way, Backburner is the most overpowered gun in the game, just putting that out there. ^this For the record, my Pyro loadout is Degreaser, Shotgun (Maaaaaaaybe going for Detonator, but eh), and Axtinguisher.

Doesn't stop me from using it anyways. It's not like Pyros are that hard to stop... My Pyro loadout is Backburner/Shotgun/Axtinguisher. -Canama Edited October 14, 2011 by Canama Quote man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight
DYLAN the SINKING STAR Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Degreaser is a better loadout, doesn't rely on ridiculous boosts of damage. And I do use the Backburner sometimes too, mainly because I have a strange one. Quote
lunaticCircuitry Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Degreaser is a better loadout, doesn't rely on ridiculous boosts of damage. Yeah. I don't really see the purpose of having that 10% boost when it has that back crit effect. Quote
Canama Posted October 14, 2011 Author Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) I can't hit anything with melee weapons, so the Degreaser's fast item switch is useless to me. I can use the Backburner's damage bonus though. -Canama Edited October 14, 2011 by Canama Quote man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight
Klak Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Favorite classes are: Heavy, Spy, and Pyro. Though I'm good with Scout, Sniper, Medic, and Engineer as well. Yeah, Degreaser is great. My load out is Degreaser/Shotgun/and that hammer thing which has a name that escapes me. Quote My Comedies: The Krika Show (Season 1)The Krika Show Season 2
Canama Posted October 14, 2011 Author Posted October 14, 2011 Can someone seriously explain the appeal of the Degreaser? I really don't get why everyone loves it so much. The item switch is fast enough by default and the damage penalty is really bad. -Canama Quote man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight
djangocat Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 I started playing it this August, and I've been having tons of fun with it.Love playing as the Heavy and Scout. I haven't had much luck with finding any items for the Heavy, but I've got a pretty good set for the Scout. Quote Signature Guidelines: Avatar and signature total file size may not exceed 100 KB!

On that note, has anyone tried the Pyro with the Reserve Shooter? I'm hesitant to give up my Detonator, but that is a very nice compound bonus. Quote
Canama Posted October 14, 2011 Author Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Okay, but I really don't understand why that isn't possible with the default Flamethower or Backburner. They have a little bit better chance of getting away, yeah, but you still lit them on fire and unless there is a health kit, Pyro, or water nearby or they have a lot of health, they will probably still die. Item switch is still quick enough normally for combos, no special weapon needed. -Canama Edited October 14, 2011 by Canama Quote man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight

Actually, something I should know (considering I actively use the Degreaser), is the damage penalty ONLY on the afterburn, or on the weapon itself? Edited October 14, 2011 by lunaticCircuitry Quote
~Allegretto~ Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 I can only play the 360 version since my brother's playing on the PC all the time... It's kinda boring. Quote

Zerothemaster Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 I think I heard that they're nerfing the flamethrower a bit in Beta, and thus nerfing degreaser and backburner too. I think.I use Sniper/Scout/Demo, usually Sniper on easier servers and Scout or Demo on harder ones. I can also use Heavy or Pyro in key situations.

djangocat Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) And Django, did you get Sandvich? Nope. Honestly not sure how by random drop. I like the game, but I'm not willing to spend any money on it unless I saw something I really liked. Like those Deus Ex glasses. Mmmm. But yeah I realize the Sandvich is $0.49, but eh. It's not really my kind of thing to spend money on in-game material. Edited October 14, 2011 by djangocat Quote Signature Guidelines: Avatar and signature total file size may not exceed 100 KB!
Element Lord of Milk Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 I downloaded Steam specifically for TF2(Since i had watched my sister play it for a while and it seemed fun, plus FREE!)in early july, and It has become my most-played game on steam with 165 hours played. I think I've only spent, like 40 bucks max on it so far, 20 for the Deus ex Item pack and the other 20 mostly in keys. Also: YAY TWO MISC SLOTS! I can finally have my heavy with the hound Dog, Big steel jaw of summer fun, AND the purity fist ! ~ELM~ Quote
