I LUV DIS DOCTAR

Steam ID is my ON nick with 35 behind. I almost play daily after work at my time (HK time). And I can do extended runs on weekend.

Lag may be a problem if I'm catering to US peeps but I'm sure we can find a middle ground (in terms of server...SS and I once played in a JP server pretty well).

I have the game, but I haven't played it yet.

My Steam ID is sonictempest84.

So far I play Medic pretty much exclusively, but I'm looking at other classes to play too.

Either this username or it without the space should get to me. Because I'm a miserable bastard I doubt I'll venture to servers outside AU. Instead, I'll be busy complaining about how critical rockets are broken, esp. red team's.

Slapper, added you to mah Steam friends.

I noticed you really like using Pyro. :D

Random update. Been playing a fair bit...I think my favourite classes are Medic, Demoman and Engineer.

I actually killed a Heavy with my Medic, using my medical saw. That must have been really embarrassing for him...

damn, you guys are making me want to play this game, that would make me puke plenty.

So, can you use paypal with steam?

Yeah, you can use PayPal. It accepts credit cards but PayPal is also one of the options.

TF2 by itself is about $30 USD I reckon.

For my favorite class, you might want to check out my Steam profile. :D

SS: Actually, the medic's saw is a pretty potent melee weapon, I think it's top 3 in terms of damage? I forgot...

Been playing a lot of engineer lately. Getting kill streaks with turrets can be kind of tricky if you aren't on the ball. Also, finding good places to place turrets can be a bit of a pain in the ass.

Here's my Steam profile/stats:

Here's mine. Just in case you didn't know, I'm a big pyro fan.

And lately I'm working on a map, but it's going so slow that it'll probably be out when TF3 comes out or something.

New maps coming soon! Yay

Hopefully we also get that Medic achievement pack sometime soon, so I can do silly stuff while playing as Medic.

by **PenPen** » Wed Dec 12, 2007 16:02

Looking forward to that, I'm waiting for some new Pyro achievements.

One of the new maps will be a remake of the TFC map "Badlands."
Also, a "big gameplay shift" coming along with the Medic achievement pack. As long as it's not something retarded like conc-jumping I await it eagerly.

New weapons for all the classes, but you can't use them without a tradeoff, it seems. Sounds good to me if they can balance it properly.

And the other new map is a totally different style than the ones we have now...it's an escort map. Meaning...civilians!

Triple post lol!

Thursday's patch is a big one:
http://www.steamgames.com/v/index.php?a ... 1441&cc=US

cp_badlands, some existing map changes and some other fixes in tomorrow's patch. Most importantly for me:

Added flamethrower "sizzle" sound when the Pyro is hitting a target
