[QUOTE=Thaard;30676134]I HATE alle the f2p'ers that think they are awesome, because they have all the achievements on Xbox. They just run up to you in medieval mode, and stand there hitting you. There's also a lot more "xD pwnd" and shitty speak going around.[/QUOTE]
give it time, eventually those people will go back to cod and leave us with the people who enjoy this game. Unlike cod we can kick/mute these kids. So they cant get as much of a kick from griefing.
[QUOTE=ThatHippyMan;30675527]I've been through a lot of MMOs that went complete shit when F2P came out. Let's hope TF2 is different.[/QUOTE]
Something, that has become shit, cannot become shit again.
Unless you're playing vanilla items gathers, everything else - shit.
Here come the dumbs, I am talking about the unlocks that ruined the pubs.
Demoknights and such roles are stupid and should be non-existant. It's very sad when a demo tries to take out a sentry with a sword and a shield.
I don't really care to get my money back, All I am concerned about is if Valve understand, that this decision will attract hundreds of cheaters

Q. Won’t going Free to Play mean more griefers and cheaters?
We’re increasing our focus on making sure that hostile players can’t ruin your fun. Specifically, we’ll be keeping a close eye on players exploiting the ability to make infinite free accounts to bypass bans. We’ve built systems that’ll allow us to measure and track what these players are doing, and respond quickly.
Man you guys are such downers I swear. I have no issue with the game beign free or "I PAID $20 how come I only get a hat" because this game has already given me a load of free content, years of fun and a nice community to enjoy it with. If you'lr worried about all the hackers and little kids find a good server with mods that pay attention and it wont be an issue, and as far as the Economy, its alread pretty broken so I honestly dont care what happens to it. So if you'll excuse me I'll be off enjoy this awesome update with my 3 friends that all downloaded tf2 within 20 minutes of FTP being announced :v:
There are so much noobs, its not even funny. And all the servers are laggy as fuck.
A bit of math! let's see. I've owned the game since may of 2008. Up until the Uber update, I have put around 610 hours into the game (Never idled). I paid the full purchase price of TF2 (That is, $20)
Doing a bit of math for dollars per hour...
$20/610
I've spent about (Rounding) $0.03 per hour playing Team Fortress 2. I'm sure some of you paid less and have played longer. I dunno about you, but, [b][i]I think I got my god-damned money's worth.[/i][/b]
Not to mention I'm still going to play a fuckload, so that figure will go down with time.
To those complaining that their TF2 got ruined, even if you stop playing entirely due to this event that doesn't truly affect you personally, Just realize that you have put so little money into this game compared to what you got out of it than most other games on the market. Something to think about.
I'm very happy about this, and I don't care if I payed for TF2 [b]four[/b] years ago and people get to play it for free now. TF2 has given me way more than my money's worth.
It's been less than a day and I'm already frackin' sick of hearing people bitch about TF2 going free to play. These self-entitled twits are even going so far as to bitch about Valve giving them AN ENTIRE GAME FOR FREE! For the love of God, grow up. Instead of bitching about it, either acknowledge the upsides (which far outweigh any cons), or go play something else. No one will miss your incessant whining. And, with the bevy of new players coming, our servers will be full and active.
Why not join the ranks of the COD "hardcore" players. Then you'll get your game that never changes over years of play. Hell, you won't even need to deal with the Mann Co. Store! 'Course, you'll have to spend $15 or more on a couple of extra maps, but that's okay. I mean, it's not like you can't just get them via an unlock or anything. Right?
THE GAME IS 4 FUCKING YEARS OLD. [b] let go of it already[/b]
Word up is that all the CSS guys are coming to TF2.
SNIPERS,SPIES,SCOUTS EVERYWHERE
Certainly didn't see that one coming. Oh well, more people to play with is always fun.

My alt account.... I've idled a bit before Uber update.
What should I do with this?

IP ban perhaps? Or maybe banning every account they make subsequently? Interesting...

Oh god yes.
TERRIBLE snipers, spies and scouts.
This is gonna be fun.
They never got to experience TF2 when it was at it's best.
what they mean by rare items? unusuals?
Cool fps dropped again the game is gonna run at 1 fps next year at least for me.
Just had a CSS player, ranting about why he could not kill a heavy with a single headshot.
Yay new players.
Anyone else seeing the hilarious downpour of tears from SPUF?
They're all on this PREMIUM USER MASTER RACE powertrip. Trying to segregate the newbies or some stupid crap.

Saxton mask.
Why do you guys complain so much about this? I'm all for it becoming free, even if I did buy it with the Orange Box 3-and-a-half years ago. I can get new friends (well, friend) playing and the new accounts get their restrictions, so they can't be used as alternate idle accounts.
And about the new players.. well, what do you expect? They're new and have never played it. TF2 is a fairly unique game, they aren't going to get the hang of it immediately.
I am crying from inside.

Don't look at me, I like having new players come in. If you ask me, everyone else was getting too damn good...
[QUOTE=Spybreak;30676701]Not if they're on YOUR team.[/QUOTE]
Oh, forgot about that. Still, i'm going to stay on FPUK servers as soon as they're updated, so hopefully there will not be so many of them.
Oh, and i'm always happy to help somebody who's willing to learn - especially since you can get a hat for coaching :v:
I like all the people who are treating the F2Pers akin to idiots and illiterate numbskulls - as if we never had those before this update.
I think this is brilliant :buddy:
Everyone wanting a refund can fuck right off, how long have you had this game? Have you not had your £20 worth of enjoyment? I have, dozens of times over.
I deleted the game and I want my money back. Seriously, get the damn hat back and give me the money.
Okay so 6 months ago I paid 20 euro for a game already messed up by a retarded hat-economy, and now it's free?
Still really fun game. I can't ignore the feeling that I got a little ripped of because I haven't got the game for that long, but oh well I'll live with it I guess...

well you arent getting it back. If you un-installed due to that, i pity you.
Feel sorry for whoever bought TF2 yesterday.
