Team Fortress Deux: Update out, it's fantastic

This is the best game you can currently play on your computer gaming machines, so you should all play it. Also sometimes Valve will drop the price to like $10, so no one who enjoys shooting other people and has a computer capable of running the game has an excuse not to own it.
THINGS TO KNOW:
- Sometime fairly soon Valve will begin adding stat modifications which will spawn at random on randomly "dropped" weapons. Think Diablo II, kinda. (Exactly how the actual dropping part work is unclear, but it's a safe bet they won't actually spring into being on the corpses of your enemies because that would suck.) So you might be able to find, say, a rocket launcher that has only 3 rockets per clip but with greater knockback and damage on each, or a medic gun that heals faster but can't overheal. There will also be hats. Some people complained about these things a lot when they were announced! Source: this thread on the (otherwise essentially worthless) official Steam forums.
- Sniper Vs. Spy update is OUT! It looks balls awesome.
- The general TF2 blog often dispenses cool little tidbits of information about how the game works beneath the surface and what they're planning to do with future updates and stuff like that.
- This TF2 wiki is good. The hard numbers on there are generally correct, but the “how to play ___” videos and strategy articles aren't worth bothering with for the most part.
These are (apparently) the PA servers:
ZeekNyne's (arena): 8.6.75.22:27015
Hey You's: 208.167.246.12:27015
Job's: 216.155.146.69:27015
JonXP's (vanilla): tf2.finalmeasure.com
PMAvers's (custom maps): 208.167.243.68:27015
That info is stolen directly from the G&T thread, because I don't really play on those (I have bad ping to them) so I don't know much about them. I'm sure they're great!

SO. This thread is where you talk about things like how awesome the update is, which terrible community-made maps you like, or how soldier is totally the coolest class. Yeah!

I won't deny that I'm incredibly jealous of the PC updates and hope that as soon as Microsoft stop being such cunts to Valve, they'll update that too.
Still terrible at the game?
we all get it
you're super controversial and like to do things alternatively to how the silly mainstream sheeple do them
lordy
Fuck them, I'm having fun
Also I like to grab the other player's dicks but they rarely complain about that
sigh
This is my clan's server. We're an Instaspawn server with alltalk enabled at all times and a bunch of friendly people and funny, awesome admins who may or may not post here.
But it's a fun place, so if guys ever want, you're all invited to join sometime.

Dude is hopeless.

Look, when I'm the only medic on a team of 14 people, you don't get to piss and moan about me not healing your stupid ass. No one told you to run into the middle of that group of enemy players, and my heavy was doing far more than you were able to.
I've also started to be very careful about who I focus my healing on. If you're bottom of the list and have managed three kills in an hour, I'm not going to spend my time healing your sorry ass. Because I'm a selfish player and I want my kill assists.
Install it on a desktop with XP or Windows 7 installed.
Some fucker tried being snarky with me about it over voicecomm on the PA servers
No you fireproof fuck you are not a priority when people are burning to death all around you and you're running around like a gerbil on speed
Being a medic is at times both the most enjoyable and the most aggravating of the classes.
Because it's so dependent on other people not being complete dumbasses and people who don't play a medic are not fully cognizant of just how many people besides them also need heals.
But when you can get three ubers in a row with a really good soldier and manage 14-15 assists in a single life, that is extremely satisfying.
Well, the only other classes I'm at all good at are the Pyro and Spy, and those have their own problems.
Spy can be extremely frustrating when for some reason everyone on the other team seems to know that you're a spy, even when you were super careful about where you uncloaked and disguised, for example.
On the flip side, when you manage to not only do the multiple-backstab thing, but also manage to cloak and then do it all over again, it is extremely enjoyable.
That term was originally used to refer to thorgot
But I will allow you to use it too
I have tried all the classes and pyro is probably my favourite at the moment.

i made that spray, dude
What is this, a fucking Wii Friendcode thread?
Nah I might check it out. My clans servers are in my sig. Feel free to pop by as well. I mostly play on the Purple_x server.
