I have to admit playing TF2 2560x1600rex 4xAA the game looks really nice, but even better than that, for once I can say it is NOT just about the graphics, this game is FUN, and actually put's a smile on my face and I makes me laugh out loud = just love this game to death.

The last game to really make me laugh or enjoy it to death with the same feeling goes back years to the classic good old days of Quake2CTF, when Q2CTF was new and booming nothing beat it, was just silly chaos, and now TF2 has brought that back to me :) :)

Anyway's with only a few maps made for release, are there plans for more official maps, or any game changes or add ons, what does Valve have in store for us TF2 junkies ??
 
Community maps have already been made. Many more will be hitting the intarwebs very soon no doubt. Personally, I'm waiting for Hunted, Push and Murderball maps. I spent years of my life playing those in TFC.
 
Valve themselves will definitely be releasing new maps in future updates, and the community is just waiting on the SDK to come out for mapping to hit full steam. There's a roundabout way to make TF2 maps right now, but the SDK will make it quite a bit easier, and more native.
 
I myself am hoping for more wider variety of weapons or at least upgrades for weapons...and more maps

I think that more weapons would make a lot of the balance issues that Valve worked hard to perfect would be lost.

More maps would suit me fine.
 
apparently we're supposed to get a map pack soonish... like within 6 months or so... saw it in an interview awhile back.
 
Definately more linux server support. Hopefully the admin mods get a hold of it and start to make admin of a server easier.
 
I've played a number of community maps so far. Some have been very fun, but a lot of them give snipers way too much power. But maybe I'm just a sniper hater.
 
Most of the ones I've played are really tiny scout flag cap fests. *shrugs*


What was the map where you had each base opposed between a tiny bit of water and inside each base was a prison style fortress with spotlights?
 
I'm gonna have to break down and buy this to see what all the excitement is about... :confused:

I agree with much of what the OP has said, having only a 6800gt I have to dial pretty much all the gfx down to nil just to get it to run smooth at 1920x1200. And no, I couldn't care less cause with tf2 it's all about the gameplay.

As for community made maps, god don't remind me. I have tried many of them and the vast majority of them suck horribly. You can tell they are not play tested, there are areas you get stuck in or stuck on and can't get out of, missing textures galore, boring and/or poor level design and geometry... Some of them are actually quite good like stronghold, but it will take a bit more time before we start to see some "good" community made maps, for now all we can do is put up with the stock maps.
 
Since this game TF2 reminds me so much of the FUN gameplay Quake2CTF offered back in the day, how about some of the old classic Q2CTF maps redone Source style ?? Don't so why they couldn't work, both are team based games with an objective to grab, would love to see one of those classic maps done for Team Fortress 2
 
i actually just started playin it today and im' pretty much addicted already. i got the orange box today ( had to decide between that, the witcher and hellgate london) this game is awesome i never play the original
 
The only thing I can say about this game is I hope valve gonna smash/iron every exploits/bugs/hacks in this game. In TFC.. it was sad and got old to watch everybody exploiting the game.

[RANT] Through nothing annoys me more than bunch of people shooting down a bottle neck... Die die die die die.. couple lucky shot and then suddenly we get through. I don't care what everybody thinks but that gets old. [/RANT]
 
I am having more fun with this game than any other in recent memory. Just freaking great when you take down an uber heavy. The taunting it funny as hell.
