TF2 was supposed to be released before TFC, mind you...) as a "way too cartoony" (if they knew that making a TF cartoony is a sure way to be hated... would they have done it anyway? I don't know...) remake of TFC with "more players" for more public action.
yey
God forbid someone else think differently from you! Honestly, it's their game. They know which way they want to take it, not you.

How can we be enthusiastic when we have nothing to be enthusiastic about? We're not cheerleaders (at least most of us), we like to follow mod progress, even if there isn't much being made.
Well what you are saying is very rude,imo fucking rude you got to remember that the dev team does this on their sparetime and dosent get payed for this.
December is a very hectic month for almost everyone dosent matter if you are in school/working ther are lots of things to do like family,friends,holidays booked travels,moving and so on.
And in all that mess you have to create a game and please the forum community at the same time.
I for one couldent have made that,so if the update/release or what ever you asked santa for dident happen.
Dont take out your anger on the dev team,cuz they are doing a great job.
Arsenal ask yourself if you could have done it faster then the dev team,if so why dont make your own tf game?
Anyway i got the honor to be beta tester and i have enjoyed every minut on the testing servers.
Models,maps,weapons and all the other stuff the looks amazing,FF is like a fine aged malt whiskey,after one or two sips your brain screams for more.
Anyway i have seen the light in the end of the tunnel,and i know that i will be playing in the light with the rest of you impatients guys soooon.

Well said! Cheers on that note. I agree a lot of people really do need to chill out. i know the Dev's said they would 'try" for a pre-07 release,however they said it wasn't a for sure thing. I don't really post alot on these forums, just now and then i will make the odd post here and there. As of lately with the expected release, craziness over the holidays which usually happens, etc. Alot of people i find have been crankier then usual on here then normal. Just please chill out. many others have said this on here already including a couple of the devs. So go take a valium, take up a hobby or go pay some other game in the mean time. This is free after all. Its not like you pre-paid for the game and dealing with delay after delay as valve fan-boys encounter.

Just relax and be thankful for the long hard hours these fine lads have put in so them along with the rest of you can play a quality game. /end rant

Anyway when you complain about the slow development on FF you have to think,how much of my own sparetime/life would i be willing to give up to please this community.
You got to remember that the guys in the dev team have familys,jobs,school and other normal things to do just like you and me.
When i did the TFC replica weapons it took like 115-120 hours of my sparetime,in the end i got payed for it.
When FF is released and everyone is playing the game,i hope the dev team get some payment.
Maybe some of them will get a job at Valve or an option to start a life as a real developer with real payment...
Cheers to the dev team that has done a amazing job so far.................

It will more than likely have air acceleration, just as it is with every HL and Source game. I doubt, however, that it will have bhopping; they may replace bhopping with some other skill, they may completely remove bhop or they might even stick with it and keep it the same as it is now or tweak it.

You think it's rude to point out something obvious? I tell you what: Lots of forum users can't play the game. they hoped that they can because some devs did some false hopes for a December release. now they don't even see progress in kinds of dev journals or media releases but in the end beta tester annoy them with comments like 'omg it's like sex and stuff'. don't you beta testers think that you make it even worse with comments like this? well I don't mind it but i have the feeling that this is more than counter-productive and it has bitch about the game only risen in my opinion. Anyway I'll wait for FF and TF2 as well. It didn't really piss me off when they delayed TF2 neither FF. In the end the games will be better and only that counts for me. 2007 will be a blast for TF fans. So Happy new year.

Anyone that believes a release date that a dev tells you, be it a professional company or a mod, is a fucking retard.

You'd think you'd all have realised this with the amount of games that don't hit release dates. Be grateful you get anything at all, they don't have to make the mod, they do it for themselves not you.

It will be done when its done and not a moment before. Bitching and whining about missed dates and lack of community involvement just slows it down.

Why is this thread open still?

Being on vacation, I haven't been around much as of late, so it's kind of disheartening to see the sheer amount of immature and cry-baby style stupidity that is running rampant on the boards nowadays. Not that Norris or Arsenal have ever contributed anything but shit since they joined anyhow.

Where do these people get off braying their personal sense of entitlement over a free game? It's laughable to think that anyone outside of themselves owe them anything, but these are the self-serving internalized pricks who think the world owes them everything. They were raised by parents who never instilled a sense of personal pride or understanding, and thusly have no idea what it means to be responsible for your own actions, thoughts, and feelings.

They feel they deserve it, and deserve it now. For what reason? Because they waited? Like everyone else? You have done shit in life, and you have done shit in these forums. You coast through everyday of your pathetic little consumer lives, eating, shitting and sleeping and expecting everyone else to clean up the mess in your wake.

When you wake up from your small bubble of personal entitlement, maybe then you'll realize people do things for themselves, and not you. When they do do things for other people, such as a free game mod, that is humanity at a better level, where others work for the sheer joy of it to let other people have something.

You are immature fuckwads who wouldn't know a good thing if it crawled up your ass and ruptured your intestines. Kill yourselves now and save the world the farce of having to deal with your pathetic 3-year old whinings and terrible ideas of fairness.

Maybe they are just trying to get across the idea that they are concerned with the fact FF seems to have gone off the rails psycnet?

Though technically by that argument Duke Nukem Forever is not vaporware either, Ty.

To use sitcoms as an analogy...

TF2: Friends
FF: Coupling (Original British version, not that shite American knockoff)
