So i guess if anyone else wants the earbuds just send me a PM and i can log into your account. I already did it for shadowcomplex.


So far i'm please with how TF2 runs on my Macbook Pro. I foresee myself playing on it in OS X instead of booting up Windows 7 to play it.

Check your PMs.

 

[Salsa]

Check your PMs.

same

 

[Hazaro]

Invincible crit rocket defense (Not bad for our class composition)

Yay

Even Demo spam cannot stop the Javastax as they roll 7-0

Luckily no one can play defense and we counter roll 7-0 :lol

 

[TP]

Dont like the new shitty menu?

It was only on the 3rd map of dustbowl that you even started making it to me.
I had so many buff banners :lol

Check your PMs.

Ditto.

Killing you in unusual ways is its own reward.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Killing you in unusual ways is its own reward.

Bah. You're too aware to get backstabbed

I'll just try to snipe you from now on!

 

[Sibylus]

New menu rocks, and I will accept no argument to the contrary.

 

[derFeef]

Indeed.

 

[Sciz]

Bah. You're too aware to get backstabbed

I don't need nearly as much practice flaregunning mostly immobile targets though. D:

Plus there was some really ace spy in the Badwater game that I managed to catch all of once. I hadn't been shivved so much in ages.

 

[commissar]

Dont like the new shitty menu?

Ohh you're toxic punch.

Good fun with that other game botolf. I think I've played enough 2fort for a while now though hahaha.

 

[Red Scarlet]

Was fun you guys. Hope I didn't suck too much.

 

[Ikuu]

Has anyone who had been experiencing loads of random crashes (mainly on map changes) finding things any better with this patch? From what I played last night seemed to be running much better.

 

[zombieshavebrains]

I think i did okay on my mac last night. I did have some sound issues where when spawning there would be no sound then when i got into the action it would come back for some reason. I like the little training course too, would be cool if someone could make a map off of that idea. Also i love that koth_harvest is in the map rotation, that is a very cool map.

 

[speedpop]

So is it true that the earbuds drop when you kill someone who is wearing them?

 

[enzo_gt]

EDIT: Nevermind, found them in misc slot. Thanks again zombie!

 

[Inkwell]

I'm going through hat fortress 2 withdrawal . I don't know if anyone remembers or cares, but I have been getting random freezes with my pc ever since I built it. This was even after buying a new HD (and subsequent windows reinstall). I even did a RMA on my ram (which I thought was the problem), but I still had the same issues.

Well, at the beginning of the week I did a reinstall of windows. I'm slowly loading drivers and updates. So far I haven't had a single freeze in close to a week. It used to happen at least once a day. I've been acting a bit paranoid about being online because I don't have all the security updates or a proper firewall.

I'm installing new things and then testing the stability of my system for a day or two, so it's taking forever. Just thinking of all the potential hats and crafting materials I'm missing makes me .

Best of luck to you Inkwell. Fix that up so you can get back to killing us!

 

[zombieshavebrains]

zombie, you logged into my account but i see no earbuds? When will they appeaer? Played a few games too, and nothing

EDIT: Did you log into the game?

Yeah i did. I logged in, checked the character setup, saw them, then logged out. I can try logging in and killing/dying a couple times just to make sure if you want? You checked in the Misc. items in the character setup right? Where the medals are? Its not with the hats.

Found it in misc. items selection, my bad! :lol Thanks again!

 

[speedpop]

Damn so this crap doesn't drop like the Ghastly Gibus? Boo to you Valve! Booooo!

 

[Blizzard]

Of course not! Gives new meaning to the phrase "moneyhat". ;p

 

[Salsa]

Got my earbuds, thank you zombieshavebrians

 

[Blizzard]

Could someone do me a big favor and take a couple of screenshots of Well? Bonus points if you can do it with a 5850. Here are two windowed shots:

Am I losing my mind, or are those darker than normal (and darker than the 4850 was)? The spawn exit was almost totally black in places, and for some bizarre reason that I'm sure would make sense if I knew more about the engine, TF2 doesn't let you adjust the brightness unless you're playing fullscreen.

New Update just:

Team Fortress 2 Update Released
Product Update - Valve
15:38
Updates to Team Fortress 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Engine

* Fixed a crash related to model caches.
* Fixed a crash related to empty proxy files.
* Fixed a rare crash involving corrupted voice-comm playback.


Team Fortress 2

* Fixed some issues with the community submitted tips.
* Fixed a case where servers could get stuck in an infinite loop while spawning bots.
* Made the training HUD code more robust, so it doesn’t crash if the client has modified HUD resource files.
* Fixed a potential crash in the HUD during startup.
* Fixed a level change crash related to Bot navigation meshes.
* Disabled quickswitch UI in training to reduce confusion.
* The Demoman's battleaxe now sounds like a sword.


Missed a note from yesterday:

* The Eyelander now collects the heads inside Eyelanders of Demomen it decapitates.

 

[SyNapSe]

I may try to embarrass myself by attempting to play on the gaf server for a bit again tonight.

 

[PatzCU]

I have a friend with a MBP that just bought TF2 yesterday. What does he need to do so I can get the earbuds on my account? Just login through my Steam account, enter a TF2 match, and voila?

EDIT: Also, can someone provide me info on the GAF server? It's about time I hop in there

Yep, that's it. 68.232.178.184:27015 is the address of GAF server also.

Had a lot of fun in the matches I played today. You guys are all really good, so I've got some practicing to do!

 

[erpg]

Man, I flip out when Sciz kills me.

 

[Javaman]

Man, I flip out when Sciz kills me.

I've been "Scizzed" plenty of times myself. Maybe we should start up a support group.

 

[Sciz]

Man, I flip out when Sciz kills me.

You're plenty annoying in your own right, don't worry. D:

 

[Proven]

So I jumped on the GAF server a little while ago and saw no one on. So I got sad. And left. After winning a round for my team.

 

[Sciz]

It's been packed for the last couple hours, and we're just now getting to the usual prime time.

 

[Proven]

Oops. I meant to say I saw no one I knew on. That's what made me sad. No one I could count on. So I dicked around as Engineer and changed servers when I realized we'd have to play another round of the sniper loved nucleus.

 

[Javaman]

Heres a couple minor server side changes I made tonight...

Sudden death is now enabled along with melee only during it.
Flag caps set to 2 per round
Map voting at 5 mins left instead of 10. (out of 20)

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

The server had a lot of people around 6pm too!

 

[Squash]

Blast pyro is such a thankless job. They should give you like .1-.4 point every time you blast an uber off the floor.

 

[fallengorn]

Was going to install Steam on my bro's macbook but he has 10.4 and you need 10.5 for Steam.

 

[cooljeanius]

Downloaded the Mac version for the free weekend. Tried the GAF server. Nobody seemed to be able to hear me... guess my microphone wasn't picking me up. If you want to add me: http://steamcommunity.com/id/egallager

 

[speedpop]

Yeah, the problem with being a defensive Pyro is that you don't get many points for it. Engineers will love you, Medics will love you, but it is incredibly thankless.

 

[Blizzard]

Some players will thank you, and I think I have played some modded servers where you get partial points for extinguishing players, but yeah...

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Bah who cares so long as your team wins

 

[scoot3r]

It would be nice if Arena would catch on with the GAF server. Door Man is God is the only other server I play on outside of GAF and F7, strictly for good ol' Arena time.

The amount of rage from the usual CP/PL players would be epic.

Ive played on that one alot whats your id?

 

[Boonoo]

Bah who cares so long as your team wins

Truth. There are a lot of small actions that are absolutely critical that don't net you many points at all.

In pubs they're really only useful to medics that are looking for who to uber (I tend to pick a top five soldier or demo).

First rule of TF2: don't worry about K : D
Second rule: don't worry about points.

 

[Yasae]

Bah who cares so long as your team wins

I watch the death count and that's about it.

Whoop dee doo you shot some people. How many times did you avoid it?

 

[Sciz]

Some players will thank you, and I think I have played some modded servers where you get partial points for extinguishing players, but yeah...

Extinguishing players (via airblast or jarate) and giving someone a sandvich all fall under bonus points at a rate of one per. It's been like that for a while.

 

[Blizzard]

With cloak and dagger and a dark corner I will be the ultimate player in Yasae's eyes. :lol

Oh ok, sorry. I must get up to 700 hours playtime to learn such awesome secrets.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Oh ok, sorry. I must get up to 700 hours playtime to learn such awesome secrets.

I think those pyro point changes were recent, actually.
