This, in case you missed it.
[QUOTE=stupid07er;32049269]If you use mini sentries to distract the defensive turrets while you run past it isn't so bad[/QUOTE]
I used up my bonk to sneak past the sentries. The engy can equip bonk you know.

I'm sad OP wasn't original material
I really hope this isn't serious. If it is I think I'd have to kill myself. Or atleast become an athiest. God can't exist in a world where this is serious, or where a yoshi comic [URL="http://www.2pstart.com/2010/03/25/how-to-train-your-dragon/"]this bad[/URL] exists.

While we're on the topic of getting stuck:
I can't seem to get past the part where you have to get the intelligence and escape the BLU facility to give it to the engineer so he can build you stronger gear. I keep getting killed by automatic turrets when taking it and attempting to escape.
Any help?

You have to coax the spy into giving you one of his zappers. Once you've got that, tell the sniper to shoot an arrow with the zapper attached towards the turret server in coldfront. Eventually the turrets will be offline and you can escape scott free. :v:

Try to barrel roll past the sentries, they have difficulty tracking spinning targets.

Oh my mistake. I didn't notice the names matched, I just saw the date on the steam forums was from last week.
this was an amazing read
you have to be level 20 to upgrade your hats
This calls for a revival of the campaign thread.

best thread of 2011
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32047283]I bought TF2 from a friend of mine a week ago and since than I've come to the conclusion that this is the worst MMO I've ever played. I saw the "Meet the Medic" video and than the other classes and I knew right away what kind of genre it was, but the setting and characters were definitely interesting. I mentioned the videos to my friend and he offered to sell me his old copy for $5 so I jumped on the deal.
So I installed it, loaded it up and I joined a world. It offered me a class so I choose the medic, assuming that I wouldn't easily be able to change my class later in the game and I always liked healing other people in WoW. I started playing and I was kind of confused as first, I didn't know how to start any quests and it took me awhile to figure out that I was already on a squad and that I had to take the enemies intel and bring it back to my spawn.
I did that for awhile, but than I wanted to see more of what the game had to offer. It took me a long time to figure out most of the gameplay mechanics like 'hats' and new weapons which you didn't really get from looting or accomplishing quests but they were just kind of given to you randomly which took the challenge out of finding rare items.
Customization doesn't go terribly far beyond hats and guns, which was kind of cool but without any clear objective on how to acquire more I kind of lost interest in getting new items. I still don't know what level I am, I've been searching around the menus and I know my guns have stats but I don't know where my skills are, I guess it's automatic level up but I notice that I'm considerably slower or weaker than other players of the same class so I think I'm missing something.
The crafting system is my favorite part of any MMO so after I got some items and I looked up how to make things I tried to craft but all I got was scrap metal. I got a say, this is one of the least polished crafting systems I've ever seen. I gave up trying to make anything after a few attempts with no results, just wasted items I guess I could of traded.
The world is incredibly small, and I don't think there is a way to get out it's like your stuck in the same map in that one server and I can't find any FAQ to explain the travel system. Although I did see trains once, I wasn't able to get on them. There is no real 'safe' area like a town or tavern just that back room and since everything is free and there are no penalties for dieing I don't even walk all the way back to do that much and there is no money or currency so I doubt it'd matter anyway.
There was another quest where you had to escort a cart across a map and that was interesting since I had only done that intel one since I got the game but it got kind of irritating after awhile because everytime I got to the cart someone killed me. There wasn't a huge variety of enemies to fight anyway, there are the few classes and I found out you can change your class after you die which didn't make sense to me, this is the first time I've ever seen that in an MMO and it kind of defeats the point of picking a class and buckling down with it in the long run, I just pick whatever class I think is best but they all seem to be unbalanced.
So, which hat has the best stats anyway for each class? Like the 'Heavy' has that football helment and I thought it'd be perfect for protecting against headshots but it doesn't do that at all which doesn't make any sense.[/QUOTE]

yeah, you got jipped. it's free now. and just ignore them. you were lied to about the levels, the levels are chosmetic. it isn't a MMORPG, it's a MMOFPS. If you want a MMORPG download the fan campaign and play the co-op mode that I think exists, but that might be a joke too.

You don't actually start leveling until you get a hat, and that hat's level determines [B]your[/B] level. You level up by getting better hats. Unusuals actually add an unseen 100 levels to yours, plus that hat's written level.
You understood the game on a greater level then anyone else. I always thought it was about hats.

You understand satire, right?
This reminds me when I was playing CSS and I asked this dumbass why he didn't play TF2 and he kept going on about TF2 being a complete MMORPG.

you have got to be the dumbest person in this thread.
if you ride th train you get to a secret level
Everytime I try to get on the train it kills me.
Guys how do I level up my skills?
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;32050686]Everytime I try to get on the train it kills me.[/QUOTE]
this game is Not for You
You should try rolling a Spy, that makes it easier to get in with the Dark Brotherhood and gets you reputation bonuses with the Twilight cultists.

You got to go down to the Pain Train station and buy two tickets to the Gun Show. He's goin' with YOUR tickets.
