Team Fortress 2 now on mac. Plus, Free Weekend!

[fanklok]

Wait, what was up with the Engie's shotty?

I like in that video it shows the engineering holding a different kind of shotgun

Spoiler

Possibly a little nugget from the imminent engineer update

I figured that much, but dude! It has a scope! What the hell, do we have Sniper-Engies now?

It's clearly some kind of launching device designed to fire wrenches, so you can upgrade sentries from across the map. The scope is for accuracy.

Does this mean we might have some engineers that don't constantly wack at their sg all day doing nothing?

Hopefully in time. But around the update expect many engies. Just camping in their nests.

And one very happy spy ^^

Also a very happy Sniper, I spent a good 2 hours dominating some idiot engie and 30 of his sentries today.

 

[Irridium]

We both made threads about the same time.

About the same thing.


It's on Irridium.

It's on.

Nobody will go to yours! You'll say your their friend, then when they turn their back, BAM! Backstabbed.

You never really were on their side...

 

[Frequen-Z]

It probably shoots metal, and gives ammo to any friendly who you hit.

Wishful thinking.

 

[Shaegor]

Ooh, Engineer update spoilers. And a new map that is apparently an orchard...
Me likey.

 

[fix-the-spade]

Wait, what was up with the Engie's shotty?

I think we have our first new unlock...

 

[Outright Villainy]

It's probably a laser pointer for a sort of super sentry, though that'd only encourage turtling...
Exciting stuff anyway!

 

[Evil the White]

I HAD A MANGASM

AND ENGY WEAPON

Ok, excuse me here.

Does this mean TF2 will be free to download, like Portal was? Or does it mean that usually TF2 requires you to pay to play, but over this weekend it's free?

 

[sgtshock]

New shotgun looks awesome. Hopefully that means the Engie update is soon

(Also, yay for Mac users, I guess).

Ok, excuse me here.

Free weekend means you can play it over the weekend without paying for it, but you'll have to buy it after that.

Glad all the Mac owners can join the club now. The more the merrier. Well, as long as the TF2 community stays as good as it is. You know what happens when online communities grow...*cough*Halo3MW2*cough*

I KNEW IT!!!! There had to be a hint to the Engineer update in it! Gabe you arrogant, clever bastard. Let the speculation about it's attributes begin!

You can play free until the thirteenth but then you have to pay to play.

Edit: Ninja'd. As a side note has the free weekend already started and if so how do you access it.

 

[Irridium]

Its still pay to play, but over the weekend until June 14th you can download and play for free. When the time is up, it'll ask you to pay in order to play.

But its only $10 for now, so its hardly a financial burden.

 

[The Tommunist]

I think that scope thing looks more like a launcher or something. Like the engie now has a grenade launcher on his shotgun.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Damnit Valve, you are quickly becoming my favorite company! Time to buy TF2 for the PC. No more Orange box on the PS3 for me XD

 

[Irridium]

It could be a laser pointer.

Perhaps it ties into a new sentry or something? Laser guided missiles anyone?

 

[Banana Phone Man]

Is that a new engi shotgun. Or is that what Mac player will get if they play on the mac.

Well I've only got it on my PC and I can't play it right now because my brother blew up my computer so I will have to wait.

Nah, new mac players get the earbuds.

The shotgun could be a little glimpse into the what could be in the engineer update.

Hopefully it wont be flooded with mac stereotypes and have them taking up my favorite servers. Gonna be easy to snipe for a week or so now though, so many newbies that love to stand still and run in straight lines...

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

Sneaky there Valve, throwing in a new Engie Shotgun on the Mac trailer...now where the fuck is episode 3 my engineer update?!

 

[Blitzkreg]

Yeah just like everyone else, I think the shotty is just a sneek peek for the engi update
