[PC] GFF Team Fortress 2 Crew!

Whaddap (there's not a dedicated tf2 thread, huh?)

GFF Steam Community: Steam Community :: Group :: Gamingforce

I know there are a bunch of you who play TF2, but we don't all play together often enough. Even the last 'event' sort of sucked (with only like 7 of us showing up )

I know we had an event listed to essentially cheat to get the medic achievements, but its not there anymore. No event i guess! But that would have been pretty cheap anyway, i think.

Also, someone here should run a server. Starman's sucked last time (owned)

As a random point,
TF2 Stats Parser - Overclock.net - Overclocking.net

Heres a program to show you some stats that aren't visible in game normally (or on your steam tf2 stats web page). Interesting to see how far along i've got to go for that stupid 10 million medic heal achievement.



9.75 million to go, w00t.

Most amazing jew boots

Well my main issue with the GFF organized games was that any server that was set up, my ping was bound to suck horribly, I still tried to do stuff, but it was mostly pathetic having a ping of over 250 and trying to do anything while we only have 6 people total in 2fort or so. I think we do have enough active people to make it worthwhile, I mean recently I had a game with Starman, Garr and RR and even if we were losing most of the time it was pretty fun. I've had the chance to play with kitty(soldier addict) and Pom too(damn that sniping fag) so I guess we could have some fun killing each other.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Maybe it will be easier now that its over the summer, but yeah even with Starman i had lag so i imagine you in south america would be pretty bad :\/.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Last time we played all i said was 'oneechan ohayo' on mic and no one responded so i just stayed quiet the whole game.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I didn't respond because I was laughing too hard.

Also, garr, make yourself feel better about your K ratio by playing medic or some other support class a lot. I have a shitty K, but I have about a billion assists.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I've just started playing TF2 again recently, so I'm down for any games. Gotta get my Medic on again.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'll have to reinstall the game, but I could go for a round or two again.

But I'm probably really rusty.

FELIPE NO

I've been playing quite a bit lately, so you bet I'm down for any GFF events that might be going on. I'm usually able to play in the evenings or late at night. Not too much during the day.

Maybe some of us should try hopping on the Steam Group (or make an IRC channel) chat room more often. It would be a lot easier to organize events in real time and to just plain hook up and play.

Anyway, keep us posted, pom!

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Sick, I got 9.1 million to go. Just a few more years and I'll get that fucking saw.



But yeah, I'm definitely in... maybe we could Grief some random server, that would be fun.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

As for events, you'd have to ask the group admins to be sure, but i think they removed the event we were supposed to have to just goof around together in order to get those medic achievements?

Did you all actually want to do that? I don't care about getting them like that or playing 'for real' either way, but if that event was up i'd probably still go :\/

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah man i don't know, 10 million is quite a bit. I have a feeling that a huge majority of people will try to find cheaper ways to getting the 36, especially since valve stated a few weeks ago that only ONE person had reached that mark ;_;

Well, if something gets set up, I'm down. I've been playing medic almost nonstop (mostly because I like to win, most teams need medics, but no one plays em) so my killing skills are pretty useless unfortunately. I guess I was born to support (my secondary class would probably be engineer).

Need to read up more on the new medic achievements myself. I haven't touched TF2 anything since my trip started last month, but it's back to the same old same old now.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

That was pretty fun tonight whaddap puff, juan, jinn. PS new max kills as soldier is 16

How ya doing, buddy?

I set my personal record of 1700 damage as a soldier tonight. Didn't get one kill.

Anyway, I'm gonna start idling in #tf2 on IRC, so feel free to join me.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Stats Parser is down. Anyone got a mirror for it?

Anyway, I'm down once finals clear up.

FELIPE NO

So happy, finally got my sentry gunner achievement the other day. I was sitting there guarding the capture point for 10 minutes and didn't see one person. Then, with 45 seconds left in the round, 10 people charge the point and I somehow managed to kill 9 of them.

For some reason engineer is a lot more boring in TF2 than I felt it was in TFC. Even when I'm trying to build an offensive gun.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Part of me feels it has something to do with an uber demo/soldier coming in and destroying all your hard work relatively easily. Something unfulfilling in watching it die because of that. Or the sappers from the spy either =/

Some of the best moments as a engineer I've had though are fending off spies from my SGs and managing to keep it alive. Although, that's more a problem of the team not being around to help >_>

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm down for any community TF2 Events. Is anyone posting announcements or events in the Steam group?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I don't know why you wouldn't just switch servers. I'd rather play a DBZ mod than on a 4chan server.

Also, anyone up for a game tonight? I don't have any plans to do stuff tonight, and I haven't played for a few days.

How ya doing, buddy?

Not that I'm complaining, I'm still ten away from the headshot achievement, but I'm just wondering if that's how it's supposed to work or not.

usually it shouldn't, headshots from what I know have a higher crit chance, but aren't completely related to them and for strange hitboxes of headshots, heavies are kings you can almost shoot their bellies and get a headshot, it's pretty insane.

On another note I will try to join RR if my internet isn't sucking.

If you guys didn't know there have been some notable changes in the achivements, hence the delay of the new patch. Most have them been toned down considerably (eg: Instead of TEN million, it is now ONE million. <3)

I didn't see those, sweet.

1 million is nothing though haha. Assist in killing 20 nemesis seems kind of time consuming as well.

Update out, woot!

Too bad i'll have to wait until after tonight for my last exam to be over, arg!

So, I've never actually PLAYED TF2, but hearing from friends, seeing the videos, and all that fun stuff has made me rather interested in picking it up. And apparently this weekend [May 2-4] is a Free-TF2 weekend, so... Yeah, I'm gonna give it a go.

Any tips for a complete TF2 noob?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah, while cheating is out of the question, we can still HELP EACHOTHER OUT VIA A GFF EVENT. Lets.

Sousuke add us to your steam friends when you get it! It might seem like a lot to learn at first since the 9 classes are really different, but just try them all out and see what you like and it's pretty easy to pick up i think.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
