  1. http://tf2b.com/thechap i just need a scout and demo hat to have a complete set :o oh well. towering pillar on them for now
  2. Perhaps not him, but the score that he got compared with the rest of his team raises some suspicion within me. I've gotten scores like that. It's not hard with predator, harrier, chopper gunner and the right enemy team. If they're all content just to die over and over in their spawn its easy to rack up a lot of kills.
  3. Right click on team fortress 2 in the games list and hit properties. go to local files and verify integrity of game cache. If that doesn't make it work i'd try uninstalling and reinstalling.
  4. I'm surprised how long it took for someone to suggest her.
  5. Next month? i have my doubts http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Valve_Time
  6. For one huntsman sniping isnt really sniping, but regardless a good sniper who can headshot consistently can devastate a team by picking off medics and such.
  7. no the golden wrench is purely cosmetic. Also only 100 people are getting one. The weapons everyone can get are the frontier justice and the wrangler. http://www.teamfortress.com/engineerupdate/ to see the details on them.
  8. lol not to burst your bubble but everyone has that hat. from the tf2 wiki "In a similar fashion to the Gentle Manne's Service Medal, the first possible method of getting this hat was to be one of the first 10,319 people to visit a hidden web page. The alternative method, through which it can be still be unlocked, is to complete the Ghastly Gibus Grab achievement by dominating a player wearing the hat. " The amount of rage over the silly wrench is hilarious. The whole first page of the steam forums is about the stupid wrench and no one is talking about the new shotgun or what else this update will bring.
  9. Tf2 is more cpu heavy, but a better graphics card definately helps. As long as you have a decent cpu you should be able to run it at low to medium though.
  10. I like this one better than the old one. Plus it's refreshing after seeing the same one for going on two years.
  11. grapple = apple = TF2 for mac. They might bundle the two together. The hype from both the mac release and engy update would probably make them a lot of money.
  12. http://www.teamfortress.com/ engy update tomorrow?
  13. I cannot play Soldier for the life of me. I'm more of a Medic/Engineer/Pyro Well most people have a really predictable movement pattern (or they're dumb and run right into your line of fire) and not to mention most players will always take the same path to wherever your team is. It's mostly about reacting before a] they start shooting or b] they notice you or c] they move past you and take you out from the side or behind. You're slow and your weapon takes ages to reload, so aim carefully. Also it's good to know when to switch to the shotgun - people who wait to reload their rockets in combat are silly; in the time it took you to do that, you could've switched to the shotgun and actually been of use to your team. I thought that was just basic instinct and common sense in all FPS games, team-based or not, but I guess I was wrong. The Direct Hit is apparently faster but it has a pretty big drawback of almost no splash so it probably wouldn't be so useful to me. I'll try it when I get it. Oh and yeah, if your connection latency is high (and by that, I mean above 150ms) you'd be better suited to playing another class anyway. Not that you can't play soldier still, but don't expect to be good at it. Personally, I found it to be the easiest class to pick up and so did most of my TF2-playing friends but yeah, the format of soldier isn't for everyone. Good that you play medic though, there's never ever enough of those; especially not when I need one. I'm one of the better medics as well, but the only pet peeve I have is if people whine constantly for a medic. I keep a priority list, and if I can't heal guy x for some reason, I can't heal him. People don't understand this, so they complain about me. Honestly, it just puts them down further on the list because I would rather heal someone that is not an idiot. I think i've posted this before, but this is one of the best soldier guides if you want to learn how to get better at the class. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI29xEnfTzI
  14. I love the pickelhaube, probably my favourite of the original hats.
  15. So is there a ROM out there or is this for flash cards? The game is a ROM in itself because the card is just a fancy emulator, but I'm not sure if the game works with a computer emulator for now. it worked on desume for me, it was just kinda slow. Haven't really played that much yet so not sure if it black screens at any point. Picking the real version up tomorrow anyway.
  16. how about finishing episode 3 first? on a more related topic can't wait for portal 2. knowing valve we won't be dissapointed, i mean, have they ever made a bad game?
  17. I seem to get an item drop every week or 2. :( Idle moar. Congratulations Baal
  18. If any of your friends have the game you can borrow it then install it to your hard drive. That way it just checks if the disc is in then runs it off the hard drive. I did the same thing with cod4 and i can play again now lol edit:lol woops some already said that
  19. You really need to Idle less. <_< yeaaaah i think i'm done now.
  20. http://www.tf2items.com/profiles/76561198000071865 i came, oh so very hard. also crafted a togue from crafting 3 reclaimed metal. probably gonna craft it with the brigade helm later.
  21. http://www.tf2items.com/profiles/76561198000071865 got another brigade helm lol. not sure what do with it...
  22. Got my seventh hat today, prussian pickelhaube. http://www.tf2items.com/profiles/76561198000071865 It's really kind of ridiculous how many hats valve is giving me
  23. Just idle in spec, then in the morning or whatever pick a team and kill yourself a few times, should get drops, then go back to spec.
  24. It would be quite easy to cheat by using custom models. How? Turn sniper clothes bright green, change uncloak sound to a very loud sound easily heard from across the map, etc.
