It's finally here. And we learn the origins of the Ubercharge, too.

And TF2 has gone free to play. Nice.

Oh no you got to play a game for 3.5 years longer than other people because you paid $10.
Also you got a hat for it.
-
well, i'm glad that i ended up getting the game gifted to me by a generous fellow from the PA forums who had an extra copy :-D
it was the first game i really wanted to get when i built my computer, and i was this close to pulling the trigger and paying for it too. dodged a wallet bullet there
and yet, because of those horrible, awful Mann Co. supply crates, valve's still gotten their $10 from me. at least. those brilliant bastards

Awesome, maybe now I'll stand a chance against some of the TF2 players.
-
Yeah why the hate on new players? I never got to play TF2 on a PC because up until recently I didn't have a computer that could run it (or anything else really), but fuck yeah free, I'll be playing tonight. Also Champions Online, which is another free to play you can get through steam now.
-
Installed it last night. Don't know if I'll play it, I still have to finish KOTOR, Witcher, Max Payne 2 and GTA.
-
I've stopped counting the games I "have to finish". I don't have anything against new players - gets me better killstreaks. I recommend heavy or scout for new guys, as those are pretty easy to get started with.
-
I always recommend pyro. W+M1 4ever.
-
The pyro's such a terrible class though.
-
Not if you're good with airblasts. That makes all the difference. Add in the fun of everybody hating you because it's a bitch to be lit on fire, and you've got a golden combination.

Oh no, what a shame, you would have had to pay for a game you enjoy

My Pyro play is pretty advanced these days: S+M1.

Alrighty, I just did the tutorials and I'm on break for the next 2 fortnights. If you guys ever want a punching bag my account is rileyt23.
-
I feel like I'm in the top third of TF2 players by default now.
-
Yeah, I'm absolute shit and the training bits really don't seem to be helping me. I'll try it again this weekend and if I still suck I'll prob stop playing.

had it since december 2007 and I'm still in the bottom third
-
I bought the orange box with the game included but this is so much more convenient! Do you guys intend to share account names?
-
I bought just TF2 but the .exe reads as hl2.exe (http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/head_hurts_kr.gif)
-
All of valve's current source games do.
-
I'd be willing to coach anyone who needs it. On a unrelated note I have spent 1000 hours of my life playing this game.
-
I'm struggling with this now.

-
well, you get what you pay for
-
Any ideas for a solution?
-
Play it on a better computer? Reinstall the game? Update your video card drivers?
-
First and foremost, check the forums, which ought to be saturated with these kinds of problems. Most people will tell you the same thing Tiogyr said but there should be a good solution to be found somewhere.
-
looks like a video card thing, perhaps yours went bad. Mine did the same thing for awhile.
-
I was enjoying the influx of newbies right up until I kritzed a Heavy and he responded eating his sandvitch.
-
kritz sandvich is most delicious sandvich

That's why we hate n00bs. They ruin our carefully calculated medic play by doing stupid stuff like that and not listening to voice chat. However now there will be plenty of idiots standing around for me to get sniper kills and spy backstabs on.
-
Oh come on it's not like people didn't do that before it was free to play.
Avec: do you get a decent framerate though? Because if I had that kind of thing going on and it also gave me bright models I would be totally ok with it.
On a 'maybe actually solving the problem' note - Have you tried running it in DirectX 8 mode (add "-dxlevel 81" w/o quotes to your launch options (right click on tf2 in steam > properties > set launch options)? I find that solves a lot of issues and nets you a bunch of extra fps without really costing you anything other than pretty water.
