Valve’s team-based modern classic Team Fortress 2 went free to play a few hours ago, making one of the most addictive online games nigh inescapable to all gamers. Those that previously purchased the game have been upgraded to a “Premium Account”, which gives them”a few extra features, including access to rare and cosmetic items through random item drops, the ability to store more items in your backpack, and more powerful trading and crafting abilities.”
“The entire game can be played without making a purchase. All game modes, classes, and maps are available. Nearly every weapon is available through achievements, drops, or crafting.” read Valve’s announcement.
How does this F2P Team Fortress 2 make you feel, EGs? Happy? Sad? Confused? Phlegmatic? Comment below!
D’ oh, bought this game at ‘full’ price a few weeks ago, but it turned out I can’t run it on my PC
Very bad graphic glitches, even though I (barely) meet the minimum requirements (yes, my PC is that bad).
Still, for everybody else in the world, this is fantastic news 😉
Don’t worry Robin, you get a hat saying that you purchased the game. Hope you can get a new computer soon to play this and a lot of other great games that have been released this year or will be released.
Now I’m really interested in what they do with DotA 2.
Well I bought the game back in 2008 and I am happy with the purchase I made (got the Orange Box).
This announcement will hopefully grow the TF2 community so it will make games much more interesting.
