Team Fortress 2008 (Officially dead already)

[Erick]

Some of you may heard of this or not, but well, it's on Steam and has a release date. Now what I really want to ask, does anybody here really care about this or is it nothing more than nostalgia? Personally, I lean on the latter since having half the maps consisting of 2fort, Hydro, and Dustbowl is already a turn-off (or I assume so).

I don't know, what you think.

Update: Stolen mods have been found here, avoid it like the plague. Viewmodels and weapon inspections (yes, they are in the mod...) are stolen from users ficool2, Nonhuman, and some others.

Seriously, can a "old-school" TF2 mod not be this much of a disaster. Going on about what is stolen will take forever.

Update 2: XYZ claimed the stolen assets are "placeholders" and wants to use the leaked code again out of desperation because "f valvo." He made a tantrum over Steam's ToS and abandoned the project he done 0 work on. Good riddance, never let these kind of people "develop" anything.

Of course the posts are nothing more than this, eh.

I don't particularly care for the old iteration of Team Fortress 2. TF2008 from the looks of it is just the game stripped down to stock weapons and without as many added mechanics, which makes it a lot less interesting.

If it gives me the 2008 required specs to run it, I'll jump into it with no doubt until getting a good PC

So make Pyro so pathetic any moron can kill him. Right.

I believe this is the purpose of it, but I kind of agree that I doubt this nostalgia riding is going to bring much onto the table.

Then please describe how so? How can strpping airblast from Pyro make him more balanced when all you got in old TF2 builds are just stock weapons, and given that Soldier and Demo can kill Pyro even with everything TF2 has now, well I don't think it'll be nicer for him here given how much experience people have of TF2 now.

Or so I propose. Maybe the 2fort 24/7 junkies can get kills with Pyro after all.

To be an ambush class? Because that was the original intention of Pyro's design. Which is an inherently flawed concept because every class can benefit from ambushing and more, so you make an ambush class you leave them only good at that while other classes can do just and more.

Anyway, about the actual topic of this thread, it looks mildly interesting, but I'll just play it for a few hours just for the novalty of playing old TF2 than never touch it again.

I have been sharing this mod around to other places to ask what other people think, so far, mixed of "meh", "I'll try for a bit" and "not interested." I know Steam isn't great to ask (just look at the last posts) but still nice for some input.

And well, I don't suspect this mod to be all that great once you see just how not so balanced old TF2 was given the amount people have gathered these past years.

Less pyros, more heavies, now you're speaking my language. There's a reason Heavy was pretty much the "mascot" of TF2, until they kept buffing Pyro from a low grade class to basically a gauntlet. Hilariously robbing Heavy of a needed update because of this.
