So yeah, does any here play team fortress 2? It's an awesome game, and it comes with the orange box so its really cheap. The only thing that pisses me off about it is the item store. The game came in a 20 dollar set with 5 games in total so I basically paid 4 dollars for TF2, and they are selling items for as high as $18! So yeah.

Of course! I play it a lot. The store has just been added, and ALL the items in the store can be "found" (randomly given to you) after some time. Just play the game, and if you don't want to wait for that certain item, buy it. That's the philosophy behind it.

Hell yeah! Now that the new DLC is out too. But it's quite funny as Valve said it will come out last month, and it came put the last day of the last month... that damn Valve.

@jeffhuys Yeah, but I still think its weird that they charge the hats for 4.5 times the game cost. But I don't blame them, like they said, they've made 120 free updates for a 3 year old game and the bean counters on the 4th floor want them to 'make some f&*$ing money already' XD

@Metal Devil123 Lol

@CoffeGrunt You can craft the weapons with a reclaimed metal and certain weapon, like to craft the Mad Milk, you use a reclaimed metal and a Jarate (because you throw the mad milk and splashes on people like Jarate). Some of them are kinda weird, like to get the L'Etranger (the new revolver), you have to mix a reclaimed and dead ringer, why not the Ambassador? You can find all the recipes at wiki.teamfortress.com and go to weapons, then find the weapon you are looking for and the article should have the recipe. The only thing is that there aren't any recipes for the hats, you just have to find them or get lucky crafting a random hat, so yeah. In case you don't know (you probably do) a reclaimed metal is made by mixing 3 scrap metals, which you can get by mixing 2 of the same weapons or two weapons of the same class. You can find more about that on the crafting section on the same web site I mentioned earlier.

BTW, if anyone wants to add me, my name is lone_ranger_11 (it's my brothers account, he never used it but someone gifted him unreal tournament 3, so I use it and I don't know how to change the user name), so yeah.

If you smelt the refined metal (put it into the crafting list by itself) it will give you three reclaimed metal.

i played it for several hours and then got bored of it. i get more addicted to the long-term investment type games, like minecraft.


Remember those old guys? They made epic renders, I think one of them was called DaVinci, and all they used was MS Paint. Sometimes it's just skill....

I rarely play it, say once every few months. But when I do, I love it, and the graphical style, and the voices etc..

@Lemonade: Seriously? Cartoon gore is awesome, and it's done in an amusing style in TF2 anyway.


I'd love to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my bum.

Gore in general is awesome! Just watch the blood on the screen! Saw that head fly off? YEAH! Bodyparts across the room! MMMH! AWESOMENESS!
