The TF2 updates

[Fenixius]

Hehe, the Heavy Achievements sounds awesome xD

My fav names are "Stalin the Cart" and "Don't Touch Sandvish"

I'm quite curious on what the other two weapons will be =P

One of them will involve sandwiches. I have no idea how that's going to work.

TF2 for some reason is the #1 online game to most people and I have no doub't that its because unlike others its complex and hardcore in every way possible and every class no matter who you are is going to be hard to handle. Every move you make is deadly and every time you are in combat its even deadlier. I only wish there weren't kids playing the damn thing. Dosen't xbox live have a voice modder or something I mean wow.

Hmm... at least the next sets of games that come out will be FTW 100%.

All i know is that TF2 just gets more and more interesting gameplay and a more cohesive "team" experience as more players come to play with these new weapons.

For Example: imagine a heavy* that is uber'd, along with a soldier that is Krit uber'd. That's a fairly devasting combo you got there and takes the co-ordination of 4 people. And that's with people who don't have mics.

On another note I personally like the 360 version (i have both) because its easier to communicate so you can yell "SNIPER!" and save at least one persons life in the time you say it, where as the PC you have to Type out SNIPER! or use the commands because most people just ignore the people who talk (i do at least; The majority are morons)

*The new heavy achivements sound like a blast, it'll be spy heaven with all those large backs to stab because everyone will be a heavy tryin to get teh gloves... I'm goin' communist hunting!

Yeah you can communicate by voice faster on the 360, the problem is; a) So can everyone else, and b) the people playing are Live users.

On another note, why are you guys whinging about not having updates for a PC game adapted for a console? Valve is aware of your plight but I'd say that the majority of the TF2 community are PC oriented.

Then again it could be "PC Master Race" syndrome, you filthy consoletards..

The only way you could consider them faster is that they don't have to press a button to open the channel. They only use it to question eachother's sexuality anyway.

Ah, XBox Live! How easy you make it to look down on the great unwashed masses.

I wish they could come more often

Wow, seriously? the frequency of updates and download time is one of the big reasons that made me stop playing. It's a damn shame to because that game was amazing

Why would "frequent" updates cause you to stop playing? There are likely to be plenty of servers that don't allow the upgraded weapons/new maps on them, unless of course TF2 was eating into your time like some starved animal.

Looking at it now, it probably is quite quick (in relative terms) to come out with fully-fleshed-out updates every 3 or 4 months, but really that's a decent chunk of time for the audience to wait for. It is for me, although the new downloads have a massive amount of material - 4 (and 3 redone) maps, a new game mode, another "Meet The..." movie and the new upgrades for the Heavy.
