EDGE Suggests Valve start selling advantages in TF2 - Games

The issue of EDGE they had at gamescom looked like a gaypron magazine, pink text on cover + monochrome muscles (Which happened to be Batman if you looked really closely)

I think Philip Resiberger is a pretty lame guy: he speaks total bullshit and doesn't make any sense.

Alright, I'm nowhere near in your league, but here is what you have to do to succeed in the business world. Trust me. I make games too. Browser games. Oh god I'm so alone.

its like a heavy trying to tell a scout how to circle strafe people :v:

[QUOTE=comet1337;32163181]its like a heavy trying to tell a scout how to circle strafe people :v:[/QUOTE] More like cell telling Gordon Freeman how to use portals. It just wouldn't work.

[QUOTE=T3hGamerDK;32163205]More like cell telling Gordon Freeman how to use portals. It just wouldn't work.[/QUOTE] i thought there is a mod that gives you the portal gun for hl2?

Apparently BigPoint missed the point. And I never heard of this company until now and he's telling off mega successful companies with millions and millions of earnings they are doing it wrong? Oh please. "why Team Fortress 2 shouldn't have gone free-to-play." Oh please, tf going f2p already caused a shitstorm. With added in game advantages only obtainable by cash, people are going to rage so hard. The reason tf2 is such a unique game is that it places extraordinarily emphasis on Game Balance. We have many active forums with players discussing about the weapons and submitting contributions, bug fixes and proposed balances. With advantages obtainable through cash, it will screw everything up. Also, i am sure many of the existing veteran players will rage at some kid killing him with a powered up rocket launcher bought using cash. Question: "But do you think Valve could do that because people were so invested in its game in part because it always treats them fairly? Do you think that in a skill-based game like Team Fortress 2, selling an advantage would ruin the game in a way that it wouldn’t in a game where the central mechanic revolves not around skill, but around the time players invest?" His Answer: "No. It wouldn’t ruin the game. If selling an advantage ruins the game, you haven’t done the balancing right. With Team Fortress 2, you could play your way to the best gun, or you could pay to have that time cut in half." What the epic fuck?

Alright valve should now delete everything from every user's backpack then make every weapon only obtainable by buying it. and of course the weapons that you bought only last for 3 days. :v:

[QUOTE=comet1337;32164092]replace all weapons with strange stock weapons and hats[/QUOTE] Every class should get only a shotgun as a default gear weapon for every class and a crowbar as default melee weapon for every class. Of course, to get normal weapons we have now you have to pay. Also there should be a second slot called GEAR SLOT that costs money. This is where you'll put secondary gear weapons. Every class also has perks. For example, every class normally should have 75 HP and Heavy's running speed. After buying a scout perk, you can equip it on your heavy to get a double jumping heavy with scout's speed and 125 HP! Of course it all lasts 24 hours.

Hahaha that guy has no idea of what he's talking about.

I'd like to see his train of thought during the interview. "If selling advantages breaks the game, then you haven't done balancing right." Go to hell. The nature of an advantage is to get an advantage. No amount of balancing is going to change that. It's not an advantage if it's balanced against everything else in the game. I'll bet valve is laughing their asses off right now.

[QUOTE=Dirf;32164810] "If selling advantages breaks the game, then you haven't done balancing right." [/QUOTE] Until now i still cannot make any sense of that sentence.
