Just a quick reminder that it's a free weekend for Team Fortress 2 this weekend - meaning you can play the full game for a couple of days. From what I can tell there's only a few people on the planet that haven't already bought this game (I think it's these guys), but if you happen to haven't checked it out, just grab the Steam client and jump online.

Haha I Trogiggled

i haven't bought it

That article about the tribes people is pretty amazing.

They dream about it at night they just don't know it exists yet :p

i haven't bought it

I know you're a big COD4 fan, but have you actually sat down and played TF2? Or are you just being stubborn?

It's just so leet, I can't understand why everyone doesn't play it.. and at $19.95 it's absolutely criminal.

its worth the money

Unlike chubs mum.

Free Weekends are the best idea ever, I downloaded the game at the last free weekend and ended up buying it and have since got 3 mates to get it as well.

Beats trials having the full game available :)

funny you should bring that lost tribe thing up, I read an article today which claimed that the tribe have been known since 1901 and monitored since that time. Also mentioned something about them being agrarian, farming the usual south American s***, maize etc.

so i unlocked all the pyro s*** just before, good fun.. Love the flair gun haha.

Time to work on medic, only got like 9 achievements with him haha.

Does anyone know if its possible to copy the files from one computer to another to play this? Of course using a different cd key.

In other words, download it once and share the files on more than one computer.

yes you can create a backup

Yeah a backup should work, once you login with your new account any necessary files should be updated automatically.

@ $ack - good stuff, the more the merrier, it's an awesome game and I look forward to killing you in it.

i must admit those video's like meet the sniper etc are quite good and make me want to play it but i just haven't been assed tbh, i took advantage of the EB sales at the moment and picked up a couple of the DOW expansions so i'm playing those at the moment

Get it paveway, you won't regret it.

In other news, frakture popped his 100 medic cherry before latching onto my demo.

so i download steam client and then register etc and then it downloads TF2 ?

right after you purchase, yup


so convenient!

purchase? wheres the free weeekend part come in - can the download be gamearena free to? or does it have to go thru steam -_-

The free weekend part came in about 5 days ago and finished about 2 days ago. It is only $US19.95 off steam for the full game. Easily the best 20 bucks you can spend.

oh damn, i was thinkin of buyin it before i saw this thread anyway

cheers

steam downloads come through gamearena in australia afaik, they are the local mirror.

sometimes you get them through internode if you dont block their servers.
