There's another update, but no release notes yet. Maybe this is to fix the bomb cart bug?

Yeh I saw my TF2 updating, but no new release notes :p

Had a looksee on the interwebz, found this:

Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The specific changes include:

Team Fortress 2

* Fixed overheal particle effect showing up incorrectly on disguised or cloaked spies

* Changed the achievement tracker to only be available in Team Fortress 2

* Added new teleporter sounds for upgrade levels 2 and 3

* Fixed engineers being able to upgrade the bomb cart's dispenser found in Payload levels

* Fixed bomb cart's dispenser being solid to players and projectiles

Looks like no more dispensers on carts :rofl:

I miss the level 3 bomb cart.

Interesting things landed in one of the updates (people just noticed a few days ago), There's now a red bomb cart (to go with the blue one) and a silver intel case, no team assignment (king of the hill style gameplay?)

I wonder how many people are playing this on the 360. I just don't have a PC that's capable of doing too much in the terms of modern games anymore (Athlon64 3700+, 128mb 6600GT)

Upgrade (Y) You get more updates for the PC version and much more people playing.

So you suggest spending a few hundred bucks to play one game? Yeah, no. I'm good, thanks.

You sure TF2 won't run on your rig in lower settings?

The source engine is vary scaleable.

As for TF2 console vs PC, don't even go there. Not only does the console version lack all the content of the PC version, it just sucks in comparison.

I'd give the game a go on your rig next time their is a free weekend (Y)

The idea is, I'm more or less done with PC gaming. Dealing with drivers and graphics settings just became annoying. This is the only game, and maybe Day of Defeat and The Ship, that I would ever want to play on the PC and it's not worth the investment.

To each his own.

Use low settings, low resolution. You won't regret it ;).

That's the problem, though. Why should I have to deal with lower quality graphics? That's why I got out of PC gaming. I loved Valve games, but I couldn't afford to keep up with the hardware and I couldn't stand to deal with sub-par graphics.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
