    Well it is round based play so the timers are in there for pretty good reason. With the maps so small it would be quite a pain to deal with a constant stream - becomes a spamfest.

    However, the server we were playing on last night seemed to have a longer timer than others. It's something set on the server side.
     
  3. Sent....How do you upgrade a 52 year old body reaction times? I suspect it has to be painful or illegal :)

    I already know better than to compete with my 16 yearold on his xbox!
     
  4. What server are we playing on so I know which one to login to.
     
  5. so is there no way to just buy tf2? i don't want all the other games...i have HL2 and i've never even finished it...so that shows u how much i'll prob play the expansions...if i can spend less money all the better...esp. since i'd be buying to play w/u guys as opposed to buying for the sake of the game
     
  6. TF2 may be the game to get back into competition. It combines the fast paced fragfest FPS feel with tactical coordination among the teammates. The visual style of the game is awesome, and if you can run CS:S on your machine, you can run TF2. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses, and though spy generally beats heavy, and sniper generally beats...anything not close to him, it isn't a rock paper scissors deal. My personal favorite is the soldier. His rocket is a lot like a spinfusor in terms of projectile speed and method in which you want to aim to be most effective. (at their feet)

    I'd be happy to start some kind of competitive operation if there are enough people interested. I know I'll be looking to start/join a team when everything goes live.

    Hit me up on Steam if you want to play. SteamID: Kaikou

    I'm not sure - I don't think so at least not yet - perhaps after release?

    Right now its just part of the Orange Box
     
  8. Pretty sure they are offering TF2 as a standalone for $29.99 when everything is released. The orange box is an extremely good deal though. 5 games with a retail value of something like $130 for $49.99. HL2, HL2:EP1 and 2, Portal, and TF2, versus TF2 alone for 20 bucks less. Plus, if you pre-order orange box now, you will have instant access to TF2 as opposed to waiting another two weeks for the release.
     
  9. hmm...well...i'll be thinking about it, cuz i'd really love to get into a game w/u guys...haven't played anything w/CDL for a while now it seems....LoTRO beta would be the last i think

  10. Hamma, what's your SteamID?

    Hell, everyone that has been/will be playing TF2 give up your SteamID so we can play together.

    Okie.

    Dumb steam community went offline :mad: we crashed the internets!
     
  14. Heh, so you want to play sometime tonight?

    I just added you Kai. I may not make tonight, but I will be on Thursday night.

    We were tossing around the "competition" word on this one...
     
  16. I guess this will have to fill my craving to play. Are we using TS with this game or just ingame VOIP?

    In game voice?!?!

    sacrilege!!

    We have a TS2 channel.
     
  19. The problem with the in-game voice is that each server is different...some have it set to team voice only while others have all speak turned on.
