Slim Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 We've set up a private TF2 server, nice and fast, good game limt, but want to keep it non public so we can always get a game snatch.electricdeath.com:27015 If you're interested, priv me for the password. Because it's passworded, it's likely to start off empty. However we have an elite IRC bot which watches the server and reports if people join. So if you're first, hang around for awhile. Trust me, it's going to fill up in the evenings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tearz Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 How does the game play compared to TFC? Haven't had a lot of time to read into it myself as yet - but heard there are no grenades in this version? Doesn't sound the same without scouts + meds concing all over the place..

scittney Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 it's not QWTF or TFC, but it is very very good. it's clear a lot of thought has gone into the class balances, few tweaks will be in order it think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't sound the same without scouts + meds concing all over the place.. It's a lot less spammy, only the demo man has grenades. It's loads of fun though, the class balance is spot on. Uni, no, just playing TF2 off the preorder. Had a good crowd on the server tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 We've set up a private TF2 server, nice and fast, good game limt, but want to keep it non public so we can always get a game snatch.electricdeath.com:27015 Server's now not going to be passworded most of the time. As tf2 really needs loads of folks online, we've lifted the password and will let it fill up to the 24 player limit. We've linked it to our irc bot (#eed on quakenet), so we can kick a space for mates whenever needed. Add it to your faves and come kick our arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dphix Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Cool, thanks, downloading as we speak, had been waiting an eternity for this to be released and sort of forgot about it. Is it good, compared to the last tfc? Hurry up and download dammit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smelly Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 How is the server going i have been tempted on buying orange box as i am a big halflife fan and also a team fortress fan since day one. Is the server still running and is the game as good as it looks ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dphix Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 The game is class, especially if you enjoy running round like an idiot batting everyone in site with the scout Get it bought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plectrum Infusion Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Had my first crack at TF2 this evening (which is a bit stupid since I've had a full Orange Box install on my PC for a couple of weeks already, so I'm a bit late to the party), wasn't really sure what to expect but it's absolutely bloody fantastic. Counter Strike (and CSS) were my bread and butter for years, so I slipped into TF2 like a comfy pair of slippers (despite the differences there are enough similarities to make it feel cosy, not least the standard "Valve Interface" as it were). Only put a couple of hours in so I'm not at all versed in the nuances of the classes or indeed learnt the maps yet, but in terms of the "grab factor" it's the most compelling game I've played for ages - and it helps that everything is soaked in genuinely intelligent humour. The only downside with this PC renaissance is that my poor old 360 hasn't even been turned on in days, and having been reminded how infinintely superior a keyboard and mouse is for FPS games, the 360 might just have to do driving games, fighting games, and arcade games in the future. I'll be playing a lot more TF2 in the days to come, but in the meantime forgive me for being a total n00b if I show up on the MF server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 It's not the MF server, it's a server run by Slim's clan. Lots of regular folks there and the general standard of teamplay is higher than your average public. Just worth mentioning in case you thought you'd see a load of MF posters on there, you wont. Mostly because your average MF poster does not have opposable thumbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shill Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Just bought and downloaded orange box off steam. Will be online tonight, might even venture onto the EED server for a good roasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
