So, what happened to team fortress 2?

>Heavies bow to Medic
>In contact with devs
>Possess psychic-like abilities
>Control dustbowl with an iron but fair fist
>Own intelligence & control points globally
>Direct descendants of the classic TF bloodline
>Will bankroll the first maps on TF3 (Medicgrad will be be the first map)
>Own 99% of box facilities on TF2
>First designer hats will in all likelihood be Medic hats
>Medic said to have 215+ IQ, such intelligence on TF2 has only existed deep in Australian Outback & Area 51
>Ancient TF1 scriptures tell of a medic who will descend upon TF2 and will bring an era of enlightenment and unprecedented skill with him
>They own hat labs around the world
>You likely have medic hat on you right now
>The Medic is in regular communication with the developers Robin and Gabe, forwarding the word of devs to the gaming community. >Who do you think set up the meeting between Yas Forums & the Gabe Newell? (First meeting between the two groups ever) and arranged Yas Forums's first trip to Valve HQ in history
>They learned fluent Brazilian in under a week
>Community servers entrust their map rotations with the Medic. There's no gold in tf_knox, only tf_Medic
>The Medic is about 7 decades old, from the space-time reference point of the base human currently accepted by our society
>In reality, he is a timeless being existing in all points of time and space from the orange box launch to the end of the game. We don't know his ultimate plans yet. We hope he's a benevolent being.

>start TF2 a couple years ago after not playing for a while
>ashly burch starts talking to me at the start of rounds to tell me to get achievements or something

When a fps goes f2p, you are telling every cheater than it is open season.

Too many different weapons and cosmetics and playstyles made the game an absolute cluster fuck. It's largely impossible to know how to act/react in a situation because your opponents can change their weapons so easily within the same class to effectively become a completely different character all-the-while looking pretty much exactly the same as before.

Heavy update was the last time the game was good

How about you actually play it?

It's still going strong, try it out.

The only times unlocks actually change a class entirely are the Huntsman, Demo shields, and Dead Ringer. Everything else is (mostly) fine

>Can someone give me a short update
Removed idling.

there's only like 6 people working on the game

Scout became a bullet sponge and can incapacitate people from across the map

it's still shit so they abandonned it

I still find it hilarious how Heavy lost and still got the best weapon out of all of them.

They can't stun at will anymore, at the cost of them crying about some compfag boogeyman even though it was the most obnoxious weapon in the game.

almost every unlock got nerfed into uselessness, including the sandman you speak of.

Dude they changed the localization files bet you feel silly.

I'm fine with Sandman not stunning anymore but they shouldn't have also removed the cleaver combo

TF2 is on a precarious edge. With rampant script kiddies and hackers selling bot programs to said kiddies since 2016; Valve servers are plagued with rampant aimbots, lag bots, you name it.

Then, July of last year, there was a "Crate Depression", where people got 100% Unusual unbox from certain old crates. People who had a bunch of those crates made hundreds, as did people selling unusuals on the TF market and trading in game before Valve shut everything down, and eventually gave people one Unusual to keep as normal, and the rest untradeable; No matter what, the trading community and traders in general were pissed about the whole ordeal. On a fun note, the ones who willingly stayed out of it, legit expected to get a Halo for it. That was a good laugh.

And now recently, some Drama from a friend of Tyler of VNN released last week source codes for CSGO and TF2. There was a good giant scare about someone getting the code and using it to put Malware into TF2 and burning the whole game down for everyone, but I think it ended up as someone talking bullshit and Valve fixed it to make sure it didn't happen (I think I'm not sure, please correct me).

After that recent drama, alot of people in TF2, myself included are kinda bleeding out of the game, as I'm tired of going on only to see Casual servers filled with script kiddies, the same dull forum driven community servers of either 24/7 something or meme servers, and Valve on top of all of this simply waiting for this game to die now that Half Life is back.

I WILL SAY THIS RIGHT NOW. TF2 will really burn to the ground, the moment the Backpack buyers leave. Once those people are gone, THEN you will see TF2 and it's Trading economy die hard.

What even are localization files?

Man I only stopped playing because i don't have a computer it's super sad to hear all of this since TF2 is my favorite game of all time.
Also after HLA what do you think Valve will do? My guess is another L4D game, maybe HL3 maybe in the far future we might who know get another Team Fortress game. Like Think about it. TF2 is old yes but if the made another one lots of people would come back and give Valve more money. It wouldnt make sense to just Kill TF2 and not make on in the future. There's still lots of potential.

Text in any of the languages.

The best I can hope for at this point is that someone uses the leaked code to make a community remix mod which continues where Valve left off, but if such a mod isn't taken down, then it will most likely have competition from other mods and thus the playerbase for each mod will be nonexistent.
