SpectatorIf your playing, add me to steam friends: standardm6
Started playing last night at around 4am.
From what I can tell all maps are playable.
So far I have really really enjoyed the game. I would upload pics but I need to get a tga – jpg converter or something. Got this really nice death cam shot of my turret… basically a spy killed me and my turret killed him and the camera zooms in and says something to the effect of, “The recently deceased xxx killed you.” I loved that screenshot because of the way my turret was the last man standing xD.
Spy is awesome,
Pyro is awesome,
Engineer is awesome,
Sniper is awesome…
Haven’t played anything else yet. The new hydro map is pretty cool as well! We had the red team pushed back to their base defense and they push us back to the neutral session of the map. After we battled for a set time limit in the center loaded map, we ended up going into sudden death mode which means (u die, your out). After which either a team pushes or wins completely. (I’m not sure which).
Definitely worth every penny. I would have paid $45 to play JUST this game.
I heard that the scout has a double jump? No confirmation.
At any rate, more new to come. Post your news here.

SpectatorPlayed it for a good 4hrs today….
things i noticed…
NO NADES!!!! knowone has nades…. this means what i though was the best part.. Conc Jumps are Goone!
I like the Simper Power charge, but you cant jump or the charge is gone ..wtf?
and the Medic its AWESOME!!! get 3 medics chained onto a Heavy Weapons Guy and its game ova…
Spys are kinda ghay, but i gess its part of the gheyme
the the engineer turretts are WAY to powerfull and have to much healt.. now with no nades the only ppl that can destroy them is a HWG, or a demo mann and soldier.
only map i’v played is 2forts as still getting usted to the gameplay, very very phun… how is this beta???? it *edited*ing rocks
September 19, 2007 at 12:00 am #27073Bitey
SpectatorThey said this game would rely heavily on team work, so I am not surprised that only certain people can do certain things.

SpectatorBiteys 100% correct
w/o team work it stails mates every time…. gotta find a good server where ppl talk and can work together.

SpectatorI played for about half an hour today. It looks great. I love the cell shading they did on all of the textures. Gameplay-wise I don’t like it that much. It seemed very hard to kill someone in the game, although I was only Heavy and Demo. Medics seem to ruin the game for me because they would just stand next to one big person and heal they faster than I could kill them. The only real reason I bought this was for portal and that isn’t out yet so I wouldn’t say it’s a waste of money.

Spectatoryeah then medice are chained you gotta kill the medic 1st… the problem is then their is a medic on the medic on the medic all healing each other… thats when we need nades… why did they take nades out.. /crossing fingers its just a beta thing
September 19, 2007 at 2:15 am #27081Kappamerc
SpectatorNades were gone because of nade spamming. Soldier, Spy, Demo, and any long range gun can take out a turret. Spy has the best way of taking them out with his sapper charges.
If you wanna take out those medics + heavy just get a soldier and a demoman on em. Wanna make sure you get them put medics on the demo/soldier.
I personally like being able to walk out of spawn without 50 grenades up my *edited* ^^.
I wish the medic could still spread aids.
I have no problem with what they have done and I think the only class that needs work is the sniper, out of any class it is the only one that I believe is weak.
No need to conc jump if you can double jump instead
.I’ve really enjoyed most of the new maps and think they chose the right theme for the game. Definitely worth every penny.

The only real reason I bought this was for portal and that isn’t out yet so I wouldn’t say it’s a waste of money.It was my experience that the heavy could rip thru most classes easily as long as u aim properly. The only classes that it can’t rip to shreds are the soldier/heavy. If he has medics, kill his medics and get out of the way while your medics heal you
.Playing the engineer and spy I didn’t once think ‘wow this is too hard to kill.’ I guess it just depends.
If you played the demo, he is the most explosive character in the game… When I played him I was killing groups of people fairly easily (until those pesky spies got me).
It is a great teamwork oriented game that really has improved upon a winning formula. It isn’t perfect but its definitely better than 90% of the other crap out there.

lol, yeah, the sapper charge is awesome. I love placing on a Engy’s stuff and then as he tries to repair it off (takes 2 swings) I kill him.

SpectatorI absolutely love this game. It’s like playing an R-Rated Pixar movie. I knew I would be impressed with the graphics, but I didn’t know to what extent. I think TF2 looks “cooler” than BioShock to me, there is just something about how it looks that makes people say wow. The gore along with the cartooney feel makes for a very FUN game. Teamwork is essential because of how the classes are designed; by yourself you will get owned if the other team is working together.
My favorite class right now is Scout, just because of the shottie and the double jump
Where are you guys playing at? I’ve seen NoDice, Krispies and Billy (Rentons Big Bro)I also like the menus and GUI of the game along with the sound. The sound is some of the funniest I’ve heard in any game prior, the old woman counting down the rounds like the world is going to end makes me laugh. Not to mention this game has the best animation in terms of facial and body movement that I’ve ever seen. I can not stop playing this game when I am home.
Hit me up when yall are playing

SpectatorI’m installing one on Tron as I post this.
September 21, 2007 at 12:35 pm #27274Bitey
SpectatorI have been playing too, as far as I can tell the only class that can remotely go solo if the other team is working together is spy.

Spectatorand if the medic is chained to a medic to a medic shot the guy in the back and work your way up
September 21, 2007 at 2:27 pm #27294Renton’s Big Bro
SpectatorMy favorite is we had a heavy… then a medic, then me as a medic, then another medic… all chained – I have noticed that the chain from the other medics heals the guy in front also, not just the medic immediatly that he is healing. You can see a weak beam going to him. But anyway… a spy wrecked all 4 of us with backstabs… We lost, then cried together in a circle.
