ex-QWTFer and dabbled a bit in Q3F. Nothing has come close to the grandeur of QWTF. I hope this changes with FF. If not, i have TF2 to look forward to as well.

I played tfc until the bots ruined what was left of the community. So many servers, so many bots, was tough to find a half decent game with real people. I can't say I stuck around for the nitty gritty, I was in a clan once, didn't really work out cause I was in uni when I joined, then moved home for the summer on a 28k connection, ouch, my 56k modem wasn't any good lol, just bad phone lines.

I'm only a recent original TFC player. I've been playing for about two months now on a private server with some friends of mine. I'm still a noob, but I've played enough of the game to like it, and know how it works.

experience

I played QWTF for a couple years, loved it. Anyone remember BETAMAP3? I also played some TFC when it came out, but I didn't like the feel of it. They really nerfed the pyro and spy classes, which were my favorites. Then I started playing Weapons Factory (a TF clone on Q2) then Weapons Factory Arena. After the community died down in WFA, I started playing other games, now I mostly play NS. Still can't wait for FF to come out. I hope it will bring back the magic of TF / WFA. I try to keep my skills sharp by playing CS:S... don't know how much more of this crap I can take... I really need my Fortress fix...

i guess the FF community will consist mostly of old TFC players (like me). But I really hope FF will be a full victory and gather a big community like in the old days of TFC.

yes and i hope the cocky attitudes stay with tfc and die with it (if tfc ever dies, which i am sure it will at SOME point)... they've taken over it seems.

As a player of both games, I enjoyed TFC more than QWTF, and Quake 3 Arena/CPMA/Defrag still dwarfs the two :P

Wonder if old tfc-ers will have a huge advantage over 'noobies'. Looking at the latest movie Id say they will. Bunnyhoping looks the same, theres concing and the movement does look very similar.

Yes but with modern connections nowadays 'noobs' are grasping the basic (I call them exploit style) skills within a few days. It's Bhing that takes a long time to grasp, which is a good thing and challenging.

Public TFC servers are getting quite dull/bad now, the people in them I mean.

what do you mean??? the trash talk?







TFC was the only game that made me laugh all night and it still does if playing a 32 player server.
all the trash talk...all the spammage....all the detpacks going off in peoples faces. TFC is still my favorite even though it's old with old graphics. FF is gonna be perfect cuz of valves new source engine.





This thread is actually very cool...People telling war stories of "back in the day when TFC ruled" is cool.
Is QWTF really that good?? I never played it.

Although experienced tfc players will have an advantage in FF, new people will not have such a hard time getting good because things are made easier to a certain extent, such as bhop, and there will be tutorials for new players so they are aware of all the skills they can potentially master. Furthermore, the new additions to FF will give something new to learn for ones already prominant with skills present in TFC.

Also, I agree the community has developed a very arrogant faggot attitude in the recent years and I hope there will be enough new blood that it gets diluted.

Lastly, there are not many pubs these days but there are 2 which are pretty much always full with people and are quite fun to play in at any level and the admins are not retarded. (I add the last part because at another pub some [DAD] guy banned me for "autoaim script" and would not listent to common sense.)

I'm normally on the 2fort/well server, expecially when I'm bored at home, or late at night as moistmuffins

I was introduced to "Fortress" in 2002 around Q3F2.2 version. I play some TFC, but the Quake style Fortress is much better in my opinion. I currently play ETF and now Q3FX when I get a chance.

I have HL2, but have not installed it yet since I am awaiting Fortress Forever.

Initially I played ETF when that came out, just messing about really then I heard about FF oddly enough FF sparked an interest in TFC.
So I went and learned the basics of TFC now I can play it I'm still a noob at it though. I just play it for kicks anyway so that doesn't really bother me, the only thing I can't abide is when your up against a sniper who can actually aim... damn.
Maybe we should implement random cross-hair movement like those drunk snipers from ww2 games.
