Team Fortress 2 - Heavy Update, New Maps, New Mode are all live now!

  1. Don’t care for the hat or any other hat in my backpack.
  2. I’ll NEVER buy a virtual item on TF2, be it hat, weapon, or misc.
  3. I don’t care about the trading economy in TF2.

People in the SLAUGHTERHOUSE server say there’s two groups of people now: Those who play, and those who only trade. And by God, I love mowing down those traders who join on a playing.

Good stuff on that big trade, and it’s cool that you’re not into that stuff.

For me, it’s just that after so long nothing much has changed gameplay-wise even with the new weapons that are thrown in, and so because of that, the Mann-Conomy aspect becomes more exciting.

I actually have never traded at all, but Im suprised somebody spent more money on keys to trade you than just buying the hat straight up for cheaper

Valve is a fuckin’ genius. On one server this dude said he spent $80 on keys alone and $300 since the Manconnomy update. $80 on virtual keys. Goddamn. It really really boggles my mind. I can understand wanting a cool item but people shell out cash like crazy. I ain’t mad at all though since items that pertain to gameplay can be crafted or dropped. All you have to do is just play for a period of time and eventually you can get what you want. You play more, you reap the rewards. Though, spending large amounts of money on game aesthetics is beyond me. The big picture is that Valve will have more incentive to support the game and that’s all that really matters.

But please believe, if I ever, and I mean ever, get a super rare/highly valued hat/item/whatever, I’m going to be trollin’ like there’s no tomorrow.

I guess while we’re at this topic I do need a few more weapons. I still need:

-Mad Milk
-Powerjack
-Ullapool Caber

Let’s do some trading bros.

EDIT: Pimp Willy gave me a free Jag wrench, thanks man
EDIT2: Finally have all of them.

huh so I got 3 hats idling last night

Vintage Merryweather
Nappers Respite
Physicians Procedure Mask

Must be some sort of xmas special

Does anyone here have a spare Familiar Fez?

I’ll trade it for 2 refines.

Got a description tag would like to trade for a name tag.

(lol Trade Fortress 2 yo)

I still have one more festive crate if anyone wants it

Steam Community :: ID :: The Gingerbread Commando

I’ll take it if no one has yet…

Before I start advertising elsewhere, wanted to know if anyone had a name tag and wanted to trade it for a Dr’s Dapper Topper.

EDIT: Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd it’s gone. Compared to other players, I get hats pretty damn often. Even if I were to never get any more hats, I’m more than content with the ones I have. Just really wanted a name tag. Mission comprete. Could have traded it for much much more but just thinking about all that negotiating and bargaining makes my head hurt.

Haha wow what an awesome trade, I think I had a spare nametag too.

Dr Dappers is an awesome hat too!

Hey guys, got a new TF2 server up and running. Come by and check us out; I think you’ll like it.

IP: 64.74.97.178:27015

24/7 pl_goldrush, rockthevote and votescramble enabled, unlocks enabled, regular respawn and crits on
admins on basically every day

Sweet…may have to reinstall TF2.

Anyone try the new flare gun or medigun for the beta? The new flare looks kinda cool but I just use a shotgun when I go pyro and the new Medic healer seems like it would be awesome for arena or something.

Iren is the first to join! Congrats.

This server is straight fire, we should all be going there.

thanks for rep

our group plays a lot, so the experience should be pretty good on any day

Recently I’ve been trying to get into PC gaming and this is one of the games I’ve been dying to try out. I’m getting completely destroyed in it. It seems like everyone who plays this is insanely good and already have an attack/defend plan.

First and foremost, you have to know your ro…ahhh class. Play off your strengths and try to put yourself in situations that will minimize your weaknesses. It also depends on what type of servers you play on. 16v16 will make it pretty hard for you to be effective if you play certain classes. If you just started playing this month, don’t worry much. It takes time to get use to the way people operate on the various maps. Understanding maps is a way to help you improve your strategies.
