I actually don't play it, I played it for a little bit when I got it in the Orange Box but that's it. The only reason I don't is because there are too many games now, I have about 30 games installed on my computer that I want and need to play through. It get's overwhelming, and since TF2 ain't a story or anything it's not on my top of the list.

Bought the Orange Box yesterday..Was a slow download (Stupid steam..). Finally got everything and decided to play some TF2, joined Random server and had fun as hell. Tried playing Demoman, Pyro, Heavy, Sniper and Medic.

I got stuck as Sniper for some time...but Pyro was damn fun. Still trying to learn Spy =).

Is it true they are bringing back the 'Reset Stats' option in the next update? A few people on the steam forums seem to think so. A custom map has screwed up some of my stats and I want to reset them. Hopefully if they bring it back it doesnt reset the time you've played each class though.

But but blowing people into little bits as a demoman is soooo much fun! :p

True, true :yes: .

I racked up my 30th hour of demoman play time yesterday (i know thats nothing compared to other players but im quite proud of it), can't wait for the demoman achievments to come. :D

In case anyone doesn't know This site, has some info on the next update.

TF2 :wub:

Would be great if we could get some Neowin matches going, even if it's on a public server (Y)

I play on the Multiplay servers all the time.

I'm a bit of a Dustbowl ######. Love the map.

We once had a Neowin server, but I don't think TF2 was as popular then. The server was empty 24/7 just about :p

TF2 was popular, but nobody was on at the same time.

And lag means it's really hard to play against multiple neowin members, we're all spread out (I only played on the server a few times and had 200+ latency)

Yeah I guess that was the main problem. The server didn't do to well with the foreigners. I had a ping of about 150~200.

I can live with up to 100~150 for a good Neowin match, but going over that and the lag starts to become noticeable.

I play on Multiplay due to me getting a ping of 30~50.

Where ever I play, I get between 5 and 60ms ping.

EDIT: 200ms? The server must have been in a rediculous place or had a lousy connection. I regularly have a ping of 3-5 on London servers, woot.

I remember the Neowin server, although I was late to the party and it wasn't long before Hurmoth took it offline. So didn't get a chance to join in however few Neowin matches there was :p

Yeah Multiplay servers are the ones I play most as well, although I like 2Fort the most I play Gravelpit now and again.

With my 1MB connection and my location a factor, I'm limited to Malaysian and Singapore servers, as they're the only ones that allow my ping to be manageable. Anything outside that means I'm target practice :p .

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.

      Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.

      That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.

      Arkane, Ninja Theory, and Double Fine might be on the chopping block too.
