official Team Fortress 2

I'm not too crazy about the possible changes, especially the ability to customize your weapons. Takes away from the simplicity of the game.

Yeah I agree. I like TF2 how it is really, although can't wait for the new class update! :)

Take note:

Multiple reports from people state resetting your stats DO in fact reset some achievements. Any achievement you have not earned yet, but are in the process of earning, such as Pyromancer, will be reset to 0.

Just a fair warning to everyone.

Major changes afoot?

The whole random attribute thing thats in there was in the game since the scout update (and possibly before that even)......though I have a feeling this is something they will be adding considering you can delete items "permanently" I'm sure there will be a way to earn them back.

Oh, snap. We might see grenades in Team Fortress 2.

I doubt it, they have stated on many occasions that they will not be adding TFC-style grenades to TF2......chances are the grenades refer to demo-specific items or there just left over from some testing.

Agreed.

I found out the hard way. :cry:

[Minimoose]

Well I will stop playing if TF2 becomes a MMORPG, hats would be cool for aesthetics, but thats as far as it should go. There should definitely not be weapons dropping with randomised bonuses.

[Pajter]

I'm skeptical about it too, but Valve has never disappointed me so far, so I'll hold faith. :)

[ViZioN]

As already said I'm sceptical with what Valve are reportedly adding to the game. We'll just have to see how it pans out. Hopefully it'll work out well as I don't play many games at the moment. TF2 was the one I was really in to :p

[mounty]

random.. hats.

Am I reading this right!? What in the world is valve DOING!

Agreed.....I actually wouldnt mind a system with random drops as long as they are balanced and offer different combinations than the original weapons and unlocks. TF2 is one of the few games I've been playing recently and in all honesty they would really have to botch whatever it is their doing to drive me away from it.

random.. hats.

I'm sure Valve has a better idea of what their doing than you think.....remember, their professional developers who have a reputation of releasing good games/content. Don't judge until the content arrives.

Incorporating the best feature of Fallout 3!

I can't seem to keep the Model Detail setting to medium. Every time I set it, play, quit the game, then launch it again, it goes back to High. Anyone else having this problem? And, any solution for it?

Are you using any launch options like -dxlevel? If so then remove it because it resets your video settings each time.

I don't use any launch options.

[mounty]

is your config file set to read only?

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

I just remembered about the Hunted mode in TFC in the KZ2 topic.

Valve really need to bring Hunted back to TF2 (Y)

That mode was aweeeesome.

[lalalawawawa]

Checking... Nope, not a single file is read-only.

Hunted is cool yeah! :D

I hope they'll bring use more Payload maps too. Great gametype imo!

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

Hunted = Payload.

Valve have said Hunted was flawed, Payload is their attempt to fix those flaws.

[Denis W. Veteran]

Hunted is cool yeah! :D

By the looks of things, they haven't finished that "competitive payload" mode yet. (the weird map in the background of the Scout Bonk teaser page)

Can anyone explain what the backpack/head stuff is?

And can anyone say, reset stats? I missed that.

Yeah I wouldn't mind resetting a few of my stats, my medic points got screwed over when I went to an achievement server. I don't want to reset everything though so I guess I'll just have to put up with it :(
