Brian M. Veteran Posted April 30, 2008 Veteran Share Posted April 30, 2008 It should be fairly fun this weekend, if we have an influx of people who have never played before :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634175-team-fortress-2-free-weekend/#findComment-589366766 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhearted Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Eh. I'd give it a try if steam wasn't a requirement. Since the more bad than good i've always heard about it turns me off.

Guest Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm going to go ahead and buy TF2 over the weekend. I have Orange Box on 360, but there is only a small contingent of TF2 players on Live :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634175-team-fortress-2-free-weekend/#findComment-589367964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm going to go ahead and buy TF2 over the weekend. I have Orange Box on 360, but there is only a small contingent of TF2 players on Live :( It's definetly worth the money dude (Y) I bought it for both as well :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634175-team-fortress-2-free-weekend/#findComment-589367987 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Decryptor Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 Eh. I'd give it a try if steam wasn't a requirement. Since the more bad than good i've always heard about it turns me off. Most of that stuff's only about old versions. When Steam first came out it sucked, now it's really good.

Chicane-UK Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 I've never heard anything bad about Steam. Me and a few of my friends all have Steam accounts and have bought titles through it and it's always worked like a charm!

Vista Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Eh. I'd give it a try if steam wasn't a requirement. Since the more bad than good i've always heard about it turns me off. Read this changelog. The Steam client now is one of the most stable pieces of software on my system.

Steam is awesome.. try it out and make your own decision! Read this changelog.>Added the ability to block all communications from another user Oh wow. I've wanted that since I GOT Steam which has been since HL2's release.

x9248 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Ah ok, I read it as only this Gold Rush map/gameplay was free. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/634175-team-fortress-2-free-weekend/#findComment-589369179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundayx Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 Ah really? Probably, I haven't looked into it since I have the game, but I presume either way, it's running off the full game engine so requirement should be the same. http://www.steampowered.com/goldrush/ From May 2 - 4 play the FULL GAME for free!

Blackhearted Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 How big is the download? My bandwith is quite limited :( I was wondering that too. Not because of bandwidth limitations though. Just curious how long it'd take to download if i would try it.

sundayx Veteran Posted May 1, 2008 Veteran Share Posted May 1, 2008 I don't know the specifics but I can tell you that my steam folder is 6.5GB, and the system upgrades at a rate of about 500kb/s.

:: Lyon :: Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 For those who have downloaded, can you check? It should be inside your Steam folder, called SteamApps? sundax: 6.5 Gb, that must have include CS:Source, HL2, etc..can you check on the individual files under steam apps?
