Team Fortress 2

Yeah, our clan can lay down some skills in this game, I'm not going to lie.

Awesome multiplayer that Valve got right the first time and improved to nearly perfect.

Love the character development, that you usually do not get in an FPS from Valve. The free videos of the bios are great and are a must watch.

(Hint: If you see me in a server and I am a Scout or a Sniper, watch out, I can and will find you.)

If you have not played it, yet, DO IT! If you have and want to join our clan, then go ahead and request it. We are always looking for new members

You need more practice as Scout, Seth. No offense but I would totally rape you one on one as Scout. You have a lot of potential though so keep playing.

PS: Don't play Scout on defense until you have CAL-I skillz.

Sure I'll accept the challenge. 1v1 scout, granary; Sunday

The first few posts of this old thread made me lol. And wtf Seth, did you just discover Penny Arcade tonight? I have the first five volumes if you want to borrow them.

No they're all free online of course, but in recent years they've released the volumes with commentary on each strip. Just offering if you're interested.

Team Fortress 2 UPDATE:
- Added percentage to UberCharge HUD panel for the Medic
- Added upgrade progress and levels to Engineer HUD panel for all buildings
- Added mp_tournament_allow_non_admin_restart server ConVar to allow server admin to toggle whether non-admin players can issue the mp_tournament_restart ConCommand on the server. Default is 1 (current behavior)
- Added flag to the gamerules entity so map authors can override the HUD type being used. Allows map authors to force CTF or CP HUD to be used if they mix CTF/CP entities in the map
- Added check in CTF HUD to make sure it doesn't point at disabled capture zones when the player is carrying the flag. Allows map authors to have more than one capture zone for each team in the map
- Changed AutoTeam to give new players to the attackers on attack/defend maps if the teams are even
- Fixed Pyro model not animating in the class menu
- Fixed players getting stuck in the "prepare to respawn..." countdown loop

- Fixed announcer saying "the cart is nearing the checkpoint" after the round has already been won
- Fixed cloaked spies having a particle-beam effect while standing next to a dispenser that's healing them
- Fixed server crash when trying to load a map that contains control points with duplicate index values
- Fixed several materials warnings in the console
