Tim Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 about 10GB+ littleboy. Since its mac (and not many have it) you cant copy from a friend. OR, to save bandwidth. get a friend who wants it too, you download half, copy over the steam files etc to him, he downloads the other half, then you delete them off your PC...Mac...Whatever and he copies the finished product over. twice as slow to do, but saves 50% on the download.

Furah Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 How big is the file to download from Steam? *macnoob hereThe total game files should equal around 7.6GB, less if you have certain other source games (as they often borrow files from each other.) Although it might be different for Mac. Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement. Quote of 2013. PCGamingWiki - Let's fix PC gaming!

Tim Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Question for any "Spah" users, how do you effectively spy? EVERYTIME I try Im gunned down by a stray bullet, spraying Heavy or a Pyro who forgot where the "off" nozzle was. It's my favorite role, I've got the Ambassador+Cloak'n'Dagger/Pocke[bleep]ch thing but I just cant get the timings right. :| Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disguise (anything but medic or spy usually) then stealth. Run till it's almost out, let it recharge, etc. Try to stay in corners where they aren't likely to look. Once you get behind them, start running behind someone, unstealthing within 15 feet, then backstab. When taking out engy installations, sap the sentry, bs the engy, then sap the tele/dispenser.

It's good for sniping from a distance and getting out of tight situations. -Disguise in your color when you aren't on the enemy's side.-Save some cloak for escaping And you should remember that the spy is a support class, you aren't supposed to fight on the front lines. Get behind the enemy or die trying. Got tf2 when it came out on mac and nearing 100h total playtime and 30% of achievements unlocked. Sniper, spy and engineer are my favorite classes, scout, demoman and medic are my worst ones. It's a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brightest and biggest thing on the engie...is his helmet. :mrgreen: I've recently played more sniper and spy. Had a couple of good games of spy, and more as snipers.

I just wanna see what it's like.Well, the 360 version really isn't what the game is like. It's basically the PC version, except with less precise controls, and none of the updates and user made content. That doesn't just means less achievements/maps/weapons/etc, it also means many bugs and issues aren't fixed. Get back here so I can rub your butt.

Dracion1 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I find the dead ringer to be a much better alternative to the normal spy watch or cloak and dagger. Very useful for running away from pyros, you let them flame you for a bit then cloak when going round corners and they genuinely think you're dead most of the time :twisted: Beat my (current) engi record last night, 51 points in one round on goldrush, didn't get it just through teleports either, I only did 30 ish.

Normally, a pyro will take out your deadringer with the flamethrower, then keep going and get you while you're cloaked. There are very few players that can actually use the dead ringer well, and when they do, they are much more annoying than invis watch spies, lol. For anyone struggling with spy, watch that video. It helps a TON. I'd love to stop seeing dumb spies that keep rushing at the enemy on my team once in a while :) ==================================Retired tip.it moderator.Teaching and inspiring.

Tim Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Found out 1 problem. I was playing it last night at a friends on his PC, I was dominating as a Spy the whole time there. I think its THIS PC in general. the CPU is the equiv' of Pentium 4 which is worthless now and cant support so much data flying in. (and low RAM: 1GB). on his PC I was basically gliding around the place, many shanks left, right and above. Popoto.~<3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maze Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Question: Does TF2 rely on the video card a lot or the CPU a lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 TF2 is actually surprisingly hard on both. A computer that could run this in 2007 would have a lot of problems running it now, since it's gotten more intensive. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

jjrox32 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Well this game was pretty much already duck hunt for me on public servers even before the mac release. I haven't played in a while but I might start playing some PUGs or something since I have a broken leg...and it's the middle of summer. Also this game has always been really hard on my computer, to the point where I had to use an FPS config to get it to run smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maze Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Ah, because I've got a CPU from 2005, but I'm getting a video card that can run Crysis at highest settings. Could I run TF2 smoothly at at least medium settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could I run TF2 smoothly at at least medium settings? 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
