So i gave in and finally decided to buy TF2 while it's still $9.99 instead of leaching off the free weekends(in which i discovered liked the game). All that's left to do is wait for the download to finish and then time to play again.

I have to say, I really thought I would like this game but I just don't get that much fun out of it when I play with random pubbers like I do when I play Counter Strike or really any other FPS for that matter. This game really does require teamwork to succeed well and when playing with random people the teamwork just doesn't happen

Each class has a specific task to do, people play and expect to be able to own everyone with one class which isn't going to happen, just worry about getting kills and having fun if you try to win the game and expect your team to use teamwork and do as you say you're just going to get ****ed off, try playing one class and find out what class counters your class then avoid him in the future, when I started playing I'd die then switch class to counter the class which just killed me and I'd just quit after 5 minutes.

Couldn't disagree more -- teamwork is essential in Team Fortress 2. Go to any team without it and you'll see.

You just agreed with him :p

What I find happens a lot is people just get caught up in the killing and lose the main objective of the map.

ie) People going for more kills rather than pushing the cart in payload, or going for more kills rather than helping grab Intel in CTF.

There are some servers with bots (mostly achievement servers) but that requires going online first. There isn't really a single player mode where you play the various maps versus bots a la Unreal Tournament.

Why?

Asking for bots is a legitimate question.

I used to play against bots in TFC/CS when I wanted a bit of practice or just some fun.

I have to agree. I just bought TF2 and played a few rounds on public servers. Permanently being owned because you're a n00b with little to no practice is rather frustrating.

As to the discussion about the hardware requirements a few pages back: I'm playing it on an iMac 20" (early 2008) which comes with a ATI HD2400 XT (128 MB VRAM). Running on Windows 7 and using the ATI Preview drivers from Windows Update the game is perfectly playable at the display's native resolution (1680x1050).

There aren't any actual bots (the only bots are just fake players), but there is a project called Omni-bot to add proper bots.

One cool thing, due to how they've coded and hooked into the engine (The guy's working with Valve on getting it working), the bots would work in any map in any mp source game, as long as they're provided with way points.

Edit: Weapons might be a bit harder, but due to it working in TF2 (normal SMG, shotguns, melee weapons, minigun, rockets, pipe-bomb, etc.) it should work fine for most cases.

I play TF2 so much as of late the game does not get old. I would be happy to play with some fellow Neowiners!

Feel free to add me vortex566 on Steam. Would also like to get some L4D action as well.

3 Normal TF2 servers (2x26 slot and 1x30 slot)

2 Bball TF2 servers

40 L4D servers

Come and play with us ^^ I don't have L4D but I think if you register at the forums there are 8 private L4D servers to play with people in the Special Attack community.

      Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.

      Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know

      Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
