    Team fortress 2 update

    Its quite a big update tonight, the map gold rush with a new game play style, medic achievements and new medic weapons.
    Team Fortress 2 - Gold Rush Update
    Looks great fun, can't wait to see what weapons they come up with for other classes.

    Yes .. the new update indeed. Its already in effect, but look at the Medic Achievements .. its a joke. This business of having new unlockable weapons is just going to tilt the game play and totally unbalance it.

    Will be checking the new map out tonight, and will report back on the Doctor Assisted Homicide!

    I doubt it. The only people who are going to get that massive list of acheivements are people who are already hardcore medics, which are few and far between. Even so, the unlockable weapons aren't massively overpowered, they each have their distinct disadvantages.

    Re: Team fortress 2 update

    Well its already ruined gameplay. Everybody wants to be a medic so that they can mount up their achievements.

    Was playing earlier today, usually you find very few people who want to be medics ; this time, it was blue medics, red medics and maybe one pyro, one heavy, one spy. And of course noone can cap points coz the opposite team has equally as many medics doing ubers. Might as well be called Medic Fortress 2 now

    i can guess thats how it will be for the next couple of days atleast, unless they release all characters extras at once it will be kinda biased.

    cant wait ot play tomorow (when im less sleeeepy!)

    I don't get why they are trying to push so many new things onto us so "soon" after release....let us play it properly first. Its just like pushing out a sequel to a game/movie earlier then needed.

    Yet if they don't they get accused of being lazy and not doing anything new for too long. Can't win

    True, but this is where a logical balance comes in, which is all I was saying

    Re: Team fortress 2 update

    The commands have now been removed, so people are going to have to earn the goodies the hard way now.

    I got well teasy with TF2 last night, and thats pretty much my favorite game at the moment, gold rush is a cool map, and it's a great idea, but there are far too many places to for Snipers, and as I play mostly as a heavy they were cuasing me some major grief.

    Re: Team fortress 2 update

    The new map is amazing.

    Also, the mass amount of medics has gone back to normal, at least on all the servers I've been on.

    And from what I've seen, the new weapons are in no way unbalanced.

    Same here.
    Most of the extra achievements seem to be more of the same.
    Eg. heal 10000 points, heal 50000 points, etc.
