TF2.. Cell shading and what it means for FF..
http://forums.steampowered.com/forum...hreadid=461788
^ peep that thread real quick. couldn't agree with first post more. now i don't know if TF2 is really cartoony like the one picture released is or not, but if it is... that would be KICK ASS for FF!.. and basically I just want a decent fortress-mod, but since i've been following this project for so long, i'd love to see TF2 come out and flop, generating a massive amount of hype to assist this project. what do you guys think about these questions..? 1) will TF2 be cell shaded? 2) will TF2 have vehicles? 3) will TF2 suck the big one? the upcoming months will tell all, but omgah i want FF to drop and be HOT! plz don't let us down FF DEVS!! show valve what you're made of!! |

TF2 is better than nothing. FF has an uphill battle trying to achieve what a lot of people here seem to think is a sure-fire result (ie. a TFC-sized community that can sustain itself for a number of years with constant influx of new players.) It takes a lot more than an old community to prop up a new game. The bulk of TFC players early on weren't from the QWTF community, you had mostly new people who didn't know wtf TFC was and just happened to wander into a server to check it out.
TF2 has a WAY better chance than FF at pulling off what TFC did. Not so much because TF2 will be a better game, but most won't know FF even exists, and if they do, they probably won't take the time and hassle to download it, learn, and then get raped by the 99% veteran community. If FF manages to have that 'je ne sais quoi' that CS and DoD had as third-party/user-created mods, then word of mouth will pass through the TF2 servers and communities and the new TF2 players will naturally migrate over. If FF doesn't, then at least we have a living TF game to play, and don't have to settle for a half-breathing mod that struggles to stay alive. |

FF and TF2 both need to be hits so the community can enjoy more TF games in the future. Just like the realism games have enjoyed since CS surpassed TFC. |

It's comments like this that will drive away new people from the game. I have a friend who is closely watching this mod that has only really played TFC a few times. He just said to me the other day while talking with him about this that if FF were released today he'd be afraid of getting yelled at for not doing the right thing. |

OMG CEL SHADED IT WILL THUSLY SUCK AND ONLY NOOBS WILL PLAY IT.
Saying shit like that makes you retarded. Certifiably. I'VE GOT TESTS THAT PROVE IT. Mervaka, c'mon, it's the Steam forums. A lower pit of vile and disgusting minds hasn't collected as such since... okay actually a lot of lower pits of vile and disgusting minds have collected, but still, it's pretty bad.

If you can't make a point without being a total ass and calling people names, then you can expect to take a break. And to the rest of you... the question's been answered. You don't need to continue to pile on. |
