So FF has a storyline?

So apparantly we're eccentric hunters and sportsman playing in something called the BloodSport? Has FF always had this lil' backround info?

Crips vs. Bloods was too politically incorrect I guess.

Looks like we'll have to wait and see, won't we?

"Bunch of crazy fools playing a violent sport" does not a backstory make.

I think you look into things to much, it was just a fun video nothing more, just relating to the map theme...?

That was the western, old time theme. But you know what the new version of the Thugz map will be? Four teams.


Crips
Bloods
Latin Kings
and to add some fiction to the mix, the gay green class, Grove St. Families.







But seriously, I'm sure it was just a fun video, that's all. You can't put a storyline on a pure shooting game such as TF, FF, TF2, TFC, etc. There is never a good time to explain storyline, so...yeah. Probably no storyline.

So are you guys saying what was said in the trailer wasn't right or true or something? I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at.

What we're getting at is that the whole video was made up to glorify the map, not try to provide any sort of backstory to TFC. TFC is two teams blowing eachother up for flags... it doesn't get any more indepth then that.

EDIT: Holy crap 3 posts at once...
