I can't believe people are throwing hissyfits because of the supposed "political agenda" on the trailer. Pull your heads out of your asses people, PLEASE.

Oh, sorry about that, my favorite HL2 news site (this one) never mentioned any of this.

I also smell some bullshit here. First of all, there was no harm done. The bottom line is, thanks to this guy, valve became aware of a security breach that would otherwise remain unnoticed and now will probably get fixed. Second... if he was "threatening" to release the CC information, that...

And yeah, what's up with all the locked servers?

The biggest problem is not with the frag grenades. I guess we could all adapt if they removed just the frag grenades. But all the class specific grenades?? HOW can anyone say it homogenizes the classes?? It's the complete oposite. Engineers with EMP's. Scouts with concs. Spy with gas grenades...

Nope, it's not "b0rked" - whatever that means. It's spot on. All the different grenades were a major part of TF's "personality". Removing them is like removing all the classes, or the CTF gameplay. Oh wait, they're removing CTF too already If you still fail to see the analogy, then it's like...

Well, you know, let's take the next Mario game and replace Mario with a new character. Why in the world would anyone be enraged because of that? It's a brand new game after all... it's Mario 36, if you want to keep playing with Mario, go back to your stupid Super Mario Bros.

Uhh.... didn't ROBIN WALKER say the scout was useless in his interview? Oh yeah, he did. sensai was making a point - they're making all these changes in the game, assuming it'll be for the best, when in fact they have no ****ing clue about how the game is played. While we're linking videos...

Why do you keep saying "this is not TFC, go back to TFC" bla bla bla? That's EXACTLY the problem: TFC, TF2, QWTF, Q3F, ETF, whatever, they're all TEAM FORTRESS. They're changing it so much now that it no longer feels like a TEAM FORTRESS game. It can be fun as hell, but it will not be Team...

Interesting. They say they're taking the grenades out because "they unify the different classes too much". Yet, half the classes carry shotguns around. Medic can heal over a distance?? Make himself and his pacients INVULNERABLE for 10 seconds?? So I guess a team of 3 medics can make themselves...

Wow, there's actually a swear filter in here?? How lame.

I like it. Because, you know, before they were all like "Yeah, steam and episodic content is the greatest mother****ing invention of all times. We are the most bad ass company in all game industry. We are going to bring a REVOLUTION to the whole game industry. Instead of waiting years for new...

I really liked it. I wish I could play it with someone else though. Am I the only one having massive problems with the server browser and joining games in general?

That reminds me of a mythbusters episode where they were testing this. Indeed, bodies don't fly back when you shoot them. Most guns didn't produce any reaction at all, the body just stood there. I think just the 12 gauge shotgun made the body move like, 1 inch back and that was it.

I think what they've done to 2fort is even more impressive than what they've done to the classes... It just looks SO cool. Like abandoned warehouses in the middle of the desert... but inside some sort of old 50's secret underground military base. With a pond in the middle. Awesome.
