The Orange Box :o

Featured Replies

I have a question about TF2's online play...

 

 

 

With the communication, do you use a headset for chatting, or do you type the commands? And, if you use a headset, does the Orange Box come bundled with one?

 

 

 

You can use both. There are also short-commands you can access. And uhh... no, a headset doesn't come bundled with the game, why would it?

 

 

 

Cool, I just wanted to know before I went out and bought a headset.

Damn it -.- I dled the ToB off of steam today, and it's driving me crazy. I can't play portal or TF2. When I launch portal, I can only get to the part where you exit the starting box with the portal, then it freezes. With TF2, I begin to load a server and it freezes. Any help?

Is there an error? I kept getting an error at one point, and I found the fix is to go into graphics section and change the option for vertical sync to disabled (even if it recommends it for your computer).

 

 

 

I had to do that with all my games except hl2 and portal.

Nope, no error. It just freezes.

Crap, now I can't even open it -.-

 

 

 

I typed something that fixed the problem for someone else into the launch options bar, and now the game only gets to the valve symbol before crashing.

For future reference, I suggest buying the CD's.

Im gettin orange box on crimbo with my PS3, im so lookin forward to it, I just hope my mom lets me get my PS3 online soon, does running an ethernet cable through the modem lag up the internet on the computer?

I would not get orange box for the PS3, it was plauged with lag problems on the PS3. Get it for the 360 or PC instead.

Its already been dispatched by amazon and my Pc would not be able to run it in a million years.

Question: If I only want to play Portal and team Fortress, not Half-Life (I haven't played any of the others, no clue what would be happening) should I go for it anyways?

Yeah it would.

 

 

 

FYI half life 1 is like 10 bucks, you should pick it up with the orange box. :P (and play through all the half lifes)

It's worth it for just Tf2 and Portal. Especially portal :D

Well, I'm convinced. I'll buy it on Wednesday, store probably wont be open on Christmas.

I got it yesterday, already beat Portal (that robot as the end was SO ANNOYING! lol), and am pwning at TF2. I'm such a beast as Medic/Scout/Spy, and nobodys ever Medic on my team so I get a lot of healing points or whatever its called (i get tons of kills with my razor blade too lol)

Saying that a robot is at the end isn't a spoiler, and I didn't force you to read it. =;
