Team Fortress 2 to go Free To Play
*Note that the links in this thread are currently busied up all to hell and take forever to load, so it'll take some tries to view them.*
http://teamfortress.com/freetoplay/ Welp, Team Fortress 2 is going F2P. How about that? At any rate, Valve decided that Team Fortress 2 was not cheap enough, so they lowered the price from "cheap" to "free". Well, that's probably not the reason behind the F2P change, but I digress; I believe either tonight, or tomorrow, or at one point Valve makes the change, Team Fortress 2 will become a F2P game and anyone will be able to download and play it. Not necessarily the most important of news, but I felt like posting it anyway. (Sue me.) But, what's a F2P change without its catches? http://www.teamfortress.com/freetoplay/faq.php Quote for convenience (with slight changes for formatting reasons); Quote:
tl;dr;tl;dr: F2P players = limited. Premium players = not limited. Become premium by buying game or buying stuff from the in-game Mann. Co Store. Also, for those who are interested, the Meet the Medic trailer has been officially released (and is Valve-made, I assure you). Post thoughts and whatnot. |

Re: Team Fortress 2 to go Free To Play
I bought this game 2 years ago in the orange box, I went to play it and found out my computer couldn't run it. It was very fun on my ps3 though. I highly recommend this game if you haven't played it before.

I'm very surprise that it's free to play!

Re: Team Fortress 2 to go Free To Play
That's a pretty cool move from valve. Now I can try it finally, and if I enjoy it I go premium.

There were... those and so many randomly flailing around. Someone actually asked, "How do you pick up supplies?" "Supplies? You mean the health packs and ammo?" "Yeah!" -_- Whatever, still kinda nifty that they are giving others the chance to play, yet I'm rather skeptical about it.
