They cheapen maps, how about that?
Teleporter from either spawn to the 2fort Basement locks that map down even more than it previously did.

TF2 will be fantastic because the retarded clan/DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING TO OUR PRECIOUS GAME crew won't touch it.

also: Did the forum accounts get purged recently?

First off, I want to apologize to all you folks who frequently visit the Fortress Forever site. You're the FF blood and guts right now, and you mean a lot to FF's future success. Unfortunately as some of you had noticed, the main site and forums had been down for the last week or so (end of Feb - early Mar).

Some might appreciate an explanation, so here goes: our host machine experienced a data corruption problem that initially destroyed most of the site and the behind-the-scenes database. Thankfully, almost all of the site content and database have been recovered; however, the key words here are "almost all."

So how might you have been affected? Well, we're sad to inform you that our entire forum user profile collection (5,000+ records) has been lost. Although we seem to have recovered all of the threads and posts (and who posted the posts), we've lost all e-mail addresses and profiles that correspond to the user names. In order to let users grab their old names again, we've changed all the "recovered" user names to begin with the prefix "o_" (for old user name). That way you can see who made the post, but you won't be prevented from registering under your original forum name. The hidden and sad bottom line here is that yes, you'll have to re-register on the FF forums.

We are pretty disappointed by this whole bit and we're sorry for the inconvenience it's caused some of you. It's hit us hard, too, and we've taken steps to make sure that this doesn't happen again (moving host machines, better and more redundant back-up system, etc.).

Thanks for your patience, and we hope you'll enjoy fragging away on FF soon! The host migration process might have still a few more bumps on the way, so please bear with us as we finish crossing our Is and dotting our Ts. Some folks have put in a lot of hard work to make this transition as smooth as possible, so a huge thanks goes out to them.

TF2 has spawn times, which means it won't be a constant flow of players anymore. Honestly, you think they didn't think this stuff through?

IvaQuaL · 05-18-2007, 01:26 AM

Teleporters could have worked fine in TFC had they been implemented from the start, which implies the game balance would have been thought through with them in mind.

Instead they literally just slapped teleporters in, which screwed up just about every map flow and feel (dustbowl plays nicer now but that's about it).

also don't talk about teleporters

Black Box gets shit canned. Looks like more market strategizing.

From what I've seen, that's just retail - the black box is apparently still available through STEAM.

What? That makes no sense.

Coronius · 05-30-2007, 07:45 PM

I aquire both portal and half life ep 2 from an illegal website, then i buy tf2 from steam. Why? Because i am fucking not paying for another hl2.

GhOsT · 05-30-2007, 08:10 PM

Ummm, unless things have changed, I have not seen any info from Valve stating that TF2/Portal/Ep2 will be available for purchase seperately through steam, at least initially. So good luck with that.

Donny · 05-31-2007, 03:53 PM

I dont get whats the big deal about TF2 being crap because it looks toony. I could have looked lot worse. Think about it being cellshaded.
Doesnt look so toony now huh?
TF2 -> Fast updates straight away -> less bugs?
