My suggestion is that if you want to truly enjoy the orange box, get it on the PC. The four single player games on there are great for consoles and pcs, but TF2 is horrible on the consoles due to zero updates, as opposed to the PC version which has had like 80 so far.

Drake1212 Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Bought Orange box some weeks ago, after my friends recomended TF2 for me. I have never been a real FPS-game-fan, but i must say all 3 games have kept me at my computer since. Portal was a little too easy, would wish there were more levels. Half-Life 2 has a great story, great characters and great gameplay. Can't wait for episode 3. TF2 is just great. you dont need to be a hardcore nerd to good at this. + it has more aspects (Pyro, heavy, medic etc.) than most FPS games.

General Goose Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Well in that case, you can buy TF2 off Steam. Quick, cheap and effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My achievements are random, i mean i have the things on the HUD telling me how far along they are but i'm not the best person at TF2 or being a sniper on it tbh, most achievements i have for a class is 6 for the Pyro.

Omnia sunt Communia Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I'm really starting to get the hang of this game now. I'm coming in top of the ranks or MVP in quite a few games. I dominate Control Points with the Scout and other game modes with the Heavy. Shame there isn't a generic Deathmatch mode though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enjoii Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) I dont anymore! THIS IS WHY! Got killed by my own sentries a couple of times yesterday too, pretty annoying. Is there and update planned for trading items? Also, as a bit of a newb to the updates, are there more 'Meet the..' updates planned, because I noticed that the Soldier, Demoman and Engineer are missing achievements/equipment (other than their hats). Also I was wondering if anybody could help remember the name of a map for me? It's one that I remember playing a lot when I originally started play; It was essentially one large rectangle and both sides have a large ramp with spawn rooms at the top of them, and there are several scaffold-type pylons throughout the map where snipers would often go, and then in the middle there is a capture point with a large wall either side of it that Scouts/Soldiers were able to jump over by walking about the wall that surrounds the map. I'm pretty sure that it was an official map but I skimmed through the official map icons and none of them were recognizable. Sorry if that's all a bit vague, remembered what I could of it.

Yeah, an update is in the works for item trading i think, and as for other class updates, valve have said they are gonna update every class, and there are only 2 more class "Meet The...." videos left, one for the Medic and another for the Pyro. I need to play as the Engie more, i seemed to have avoided him in the PC version whereas on the PS3 i used to stick to the class like glue.

Mike Tequeli Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 So anybody else think the razorback is a little too useless? It doesn't even kill the spies retarded enough to stab you in the car battery. I still wear it but man, considering how OP the ambassador is I'd like to see a better razorback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Democrab Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 The Bow and Arrow is overpowered, on the servers I go on, snipers are taking up Pyros jobs and hanging around corners headshotting anyone who runs past... They also are way too effective against pyros who need to run in close to attack, but that's a given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
