the old is not as good as you think. I once owned the xbox version and it was just a mess, the demo was an OP god, the pyro was completely useless, endless glitches with the most common being glitching out of the map

But that's just your opinion. To be honest i pretty much had lots of fun with the console versions aswell.

Demo with insanely strong stickies, pyro effectively being a bad scout and nothing else and unfixed glitches isn't just opinion though. It's a fact of what TF2 was back then.

I shouldn't have to worry too much about it. Your just paranoid about what happened to TF2C before and there's quite a low chance that the same thing will happen again.

Also, the old TF2 from 2007 is really unbalanced.

Come on. Your just finding ways to bash the old tf2 compared to the new one. You don't have to play it if your bothered by it's flaws.

Think about this, almost every exploit that people discover and was shortly patch would work there, if somebody wanted to, they can make the game unplayable

TF2 Classic, it's there.

Anyone who has watched the Team Roomba videos would be able to ruin things completely.

This doesn't seem to be TF2 2007 at all, the console says it's the 2010 build.

That's just the exe build, not the actual game

Ah I see now, it's the source engine version. You see I have the old Orange Box dvd and recently found a software to unpack the old .gcf files off the disc. I was also able to create a sourcemod of the old game using source sdk base 2007, and was confused when my console also reported an exe build of 2010, just like yours. It took me a while to realize that Steam's version of the base 2007 engine was last updated in 2010, and therefore while the game files themselves are all the original, the engine itself is slightly newer, so some old engine exploits and what not had been patched by this point. It's a shame there's no concievable way to experience the old game genuinely on the old engine, but I guess this is the best you can ask for.

Alright well im considering maybe posting my sourcemod and seeing if I can rally together some people to play. Overall I think this is a really oportune time for a classic 2007 tf2 mod due to the current state of the retail game and people's complaints about it.

The MyM bandwagon has died down. You are welcome to post a sourcemod though.

I want TF2: Story Mode though. It would be like Borderlands except not at all like Borderlands.

Curent majority of comunity didn't probably even paly TF2 in 07 so there's not much to remember for them. And for those who have something to remeber would stay out of it. It was super imbalanced and silly. You don't want to go back there. It was not just no hats, it was a mess.

can i just get a summary of all the broken ♥♥♥♥

Scout was weaker.
Soldier was balanced.
Pyro had no airblast but was stronger
Demo was overpowered with tons of ammo, and larger clips.
Heavy was strong as hell.
ENgineer could only upgrade Sentries.
Medic was unchanged.
Sniper was unchanged.
Spy didn't have the Dead Ringer or Ambassador and had to be sneaky.

There were no unlocks.

He's underpowered compared to his 2007 counter part
