ok so I play TF2 randomly, but have really gotten interested lately. How can I find out my achievements and/or how much more I need to unlock things etc.. So I know what to work towards?

Click on "Achievements" in the main menu to check your, well... achievements. It's under "Character Info and Setup". ;)

Anyway, the Team Fortress 2 forums are quite slow. I assume a lot of people are over there to find out about the update's precise release time.

I hate modded servers. We need more stock maps. TF2 could do with 2 more stock maps servers. They'd fill.

Like me! F5 spam, FTW!

EDIT: Ok, my index finger is numb. No more F5 tonight, I'm going to bed!

There is supposed to be a free to play day for this game, right? I preloaded this game but it wants me to purchase it. How can I play it for free this weekend?

Yes. The free weekend starts Thursday (today). It's only 8:03 PM EST right now. It's possible that it'll start later tonight, before 12:00 AM EST.

Me too. Downloading now. Curse you 1.5 mbps internets!!!

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

In case anyone was wondering, the size of the update is 153.3 MB.

[Malfunctional]

Steam crashed when I tried to update, 2nd try just finished took about 5 minutes

[Blackhearted]

Heh. "steams servers are too busy". The crap with how their servers crumble instantly with any update/free weekend/game is really getting old.

[Golferjim]

YUS!!

Finally.. Im so keen for this :D

*sigh at having school at 4:30 though :cry:

[Napalm Frog]

I'm hoping it speeds up... 25% done going at 15kb/s (lame), and it's quarter past 9PM right now.

[Knightwolf20024]

cant even download the update , steam servers are too busy.

[Aero_Rising]

For the slow speeds switch to some server in europe I'm getting my max speed of 350kb/s on the norway one.

[Mike]

Got the update at 1.2mb/s, seems ok so far although it's a bit hard to play while being sniped or backstabbed :p

[EmuZombie Veteran]

Oh my god its so slooooooowwwww...

(note I'm being sarcastic and this is very close to my max download rate)

[Blackhearted]

Atleast you can play. I managed to get it to download the update after 20mins of spamming it to do it, then when i get into the game i can't do anything else cause it wont connect to steam.

Sigh.. such fail steam is.

[kennyout]

IDK what the hell happened, but apparentlly the update has screwed up my ability to join any server let alone the steam network(yet once in the game, it will connect to the friends list....)

i now get the error/disconnect: "Server is enforcing file consistency for this file: particles\water_dx80.pcf"

googling/looking around people have said find the file, delete, if you can't find it, then it's in the TF2 GCF file, which means to delete local content/the TF2 GCF file, and reinstall(as Validating apparentlly is totally worthless)....thing is i keep hearing other people having same issues since the update dropped....

any ideas?

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

A lot of the servers haven't updated yet. Anyway, apparently you can "find" weapons now. I was playing 2 minutes ago and someone found the Force-A-Nature. Wow!

[:: Lyon ::]

Thankfully I've pre-loaded it last night. But I can't play because I'm at work arghhh

[Denis W. Veteran]

"Flamethrower's air burst now extinguishes fire on friendly targets"

Nice!

I'm still sticking to the backburner though. Crits FTW. :D

[Nagisan]

More info on weapon finding....basically if you don't have an item unlocked and run over it you pick it up and you now have it unlocked. You can pick up ANY weapon as ANY class.
