Am I the only one waiting on Team Fortress 2?
By Balefire October 23, 2000, 08:02 PM

I haven't heard much on it lately and most of the sites I visit haven't updated in months. Is there anyone out there who has seen beta testing, more videos, etc....

I was waiting for it but they parked the release so damn far off I don't think it's ever going to come out. Now they have to decide to add some new physics engine to it. Whoopee! Anohter 1.5 years..

$ .02

I want TFC with better graphics, more modes, more maps and more options.. voice chat would be nice too..

Hey Sol.
TeamFortressClassic was the one included for free. TF2 will be a standalone game.

thats the spirit... i was looking forward to it so much, especially after they released those videos that showed actual gameplay smooth as silk.. like the soldier sneaking in the dark behind the other soldier and slittin his throat... but by the time it comes out, its not gonna be new technology anymore... so wuts the point? Remember Daikatana!!

I too have waited forever for this game release. The "release date" is stated as 3/01, but we all know their track record so don't hold your breath. I did find an interesting interview that was recently done about TF2. Some new things he mentions are a "commander" mode...which floats over the battlefield (similiar to spectator mode), as well as smoke grenades, foot prints left in dirt/sand, better body physics, etc.

i couldn't wait for it to be released but i haven't heard anything lately

its based on the quake2 engine so it will look rather dated by release time

Actually, I believe valve said it will be using its own engine. If someone has heard different then let me know. I know they were using the quake2 engine, but I thought I read where its using its own engine.
