Haven't played many FPS in ages, so I prolly suck.

TF2 is awesome but it has more bugs than a fucking crack house. It crashes constantly for me. Loops sound, fails are retrieving server. but those times that it does choose to work its the fucking shit. And so ya lost grenades but its fucking awesome still without them.


The game is only available for beta to those that have bought the orange box.

haven't had a single crash yet and i've been playing more/less non-stop since it came out, i also haven't experienced any looping sound
the one error i've had though is getting kicked out of a game randomly due to my steam ID not being recognized, however I have this problem in all steam games so it isn't a TF2 issue

looping sound error could still be an issue, we probably just have different sound hardware and there's probably an issue with the one you're using

still, the fact that this is considered a "Beta", and really 99% of the people playing it wouldn't be hard to trick into telling them it's a Demo, is pretty telling on how good/polished it is at the moment

MAYBE THEY JUST HAVENT IMPLEMENTED GRENS YET! RIGHT? RIGHT?

I was having crash issues after I installed, and I fixed them by putting this into the launch options for the game:

-w 1024 -h 768 -windowed +mapnone -refresh 75

(Also had to keep running in this window sadly, fullscreen would crash). But after I did that no crash problems at all.

alot of people are having crash issues (me included), some commands like -window fix it for now.

it is in beta, lest we forget.

Also, there's no room for grenades in this game, the style of play it really wouldn't work.

I was a conc jumpin medic for years, and if I really wanna kindle that spirit, i'll play Fortress Forever.

Honestly, its hardly beta. The release date is 3 weeks away, im sure the game is about to be printed within the next week. Its unlikely that theyll be able to fix anything huge before the print, which means that it will still be glitchy like that at release, and will have to be patched.

there was an update today for tf2, hopefully it will fix that glitch with spies using the exploding thingy for engineer stuff.
edit: yes it did!
