I am in the process of creating our team fortress 2 server. It will be on the same box as the Gun Game server so I hope we don't have problems. When it is up and running the ip address will be:
69.31.15.141
Server is up and running as of 11am Wednesday morning.
i do not think mani admin will work with it at this point. So anyone needing rcon will need to PM me.

Do i have to buy this product...and if so are u all going to say ull play it and then stop like dod source

You have to pre-order Orange Box @ $44.00. However it comes with HL2 and Episode 1, which I'm sure most of us have. Valve says that once the OB goes retail, those of us who already have HL2 and E1 can "gift" the extra ones to someone else.
So far, I like TF2 as its a break from the other stuff we play.
Just a thought: Maybe we could start a thread and see who amongst us would want our extra HL2 and EP1 games? I am willing to gift mine to someone within our group.
-
You don't have to buy the orange box to get the game do you? Can't you buy tf2 by itself for $29.95?
-
Not unless you want to wait till TF2 goes retail to play. Buy OB now and play now.
-
TF2 is BETA right NOW.
If you want to play NOW, you have to pre-order the Orange Box. (So they make more money)
or
WAIT until game is sold officially in a few weeks and pay less for what you need.

I figure ...Hell I don't have episode one or two..and I want TF2...it seems the price for TF2 is going to be 30 bucks so fer 14 bucks more....why not... :headbang1:
-
30 bucks? you gotta be kidding me...
-
Has anyone played in the server yet?
-
I spent some time there last night. Quite a few of the players I knew were from our CS servers. I also remember some remarking about how the server was "lag free" unlike the other ones they had tried. Hell, it was full or near full till early in the morning. We really do need some sort of admin ability, because some of the players were saying "nigger" and other nice things. Another thing I noticed was alltalk and FF was on, which a few complained about.
A TF2 vent chanel would be nice too.
Thanks.
-
so here is the question, is it worth me to buy the 45, wait for the 30, or not get it at all and stay with my pub nubbin
-
Leet, I'm not sure if there is an admin option available right now but I will look into it. But in the meantime you can use the rcon commands to kick and ban.
-
What are they? Gotta have the password.

played in there for a good while last night and it ran perfectly. Like l33t said, all talk needs to be turned off and FF definitely needs to be turned off. spy's are hard enough to find without worrying about shooting ur own teammates. I luv this game as I used to play this all the time! Can't wait till mani gets a working admin plugin and stats. The vent channel would be nice too.

I'm glad i spent the extra 15 and get to play it. I have episode 1 and hl2. So those will be gifts when retail is available. Anyone Interested? I would have bought episode 2 and tf2 so right there i spent 60 bucks. It comes with some other game called portal. The game actually looks pretty decent so imo I think the orange box pre-purchase is worth it.
-
ff and alltalk have been turned off. played in there for a little while tonight and it was pretty cool. just gotta learn what the weapons can do. as far as mani goes, there isn't gonna be a mani anymore, he stopped supporting the admin plugin a while ago.
-
I'M glad we got the TF2 server up. i was big on TFC. i stopped playing CS for 2 years cause of TFC. now the TF2 is out it might be the same. i'm a big TF2 fan. waited so long for this game. now i dont have to feel bad playing TF2 cause we have our own server. =) by the way how do i change my name in TF2?
-
I think tf2 uses the name in your steam community profile. Change that name and you should be all set.
Far as I can tell the server is running pretty smoothly. The only thing I noticed is the map dustbowl emptied out the server almost completely. Searched the steampowered forums and there was a post with people having a compatibility issue with the map so I took it out of the rotation.
-
yeah, the server is running nice. i noticed nothing wrong. only thing is the game runs like shit on my vista64. on vista i get about 30-40 fps steady then every now and then it hits over 100. on xp it stays pretty much steady at 100fps

Downloading TF2 beta now and was hunting Strategies and found this. Never played it before so some of you guys may already know this for those that are new to the game ( like me :dontknow: ) any little bit helps. :-D
