where can tf2 beta be found?

More info about the Beta and such here;

So there is no stand alone version of TF2?
Unfortunately not.
However the package which comprises the 5 games is about £26 so it's no too bad value.

Fair enough I guess :)
Hm, I will wait a bit and see...
100 dollars is quite a bit, that is around £56 (?) for the total pack, but maan... look at what one gets, too bad I have most already!
Includes: Counter-Strike, Team Fortress Classic, Day of Defeat, Deathmatch Classic, Opposing Force, Ricochet, Half-Life, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, Half-Life: Blue Shift, Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Half-Life: Source, Day of Defeat: Source, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, Half-Life Deathmatch: Source, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Portal, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Team Fortress 2
There's also the Orange packet which is cheaper and which has TF2

Yeah, and that is the one I will eventually buy if there are no other options before the LAN - but I am surprised how much value you get in that package. If I want one of those games in the shop here it could be as much as £30 for one game (I am not THAT dumb... that often :rolleyes:)
possible wow server?
Quote from: Ninja_Freak;207316possible wow server?
We are working on having a wow-server up an running but we cannot promise it will be ready for the LAN yet.
Are we having no BF2 games this LAN?
Anybody else got World in Conflict - looks like a lot of fun in MP.

We will probably see servers for both games at the LAN. However, they will not be official servers i.e. not set up pre LAN by dMw. If you want to run a server at the LAN feel free.
Dewey,
As last LAN, I'm sure that a lot of us will join in whatever game you BIG fellas are playing.
Last time it was S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and we just followed your lead....
As Mats said the 'officially supported games' list are those games which have been set up on the server pre-Lan. It doesn't preclude anyone from playing anything they like!
PEN
Cool, obviously there are lots of new games coming out which I'm sure people will want to try out ie, World in Conflict, TF2, Quake Wars etc - its nice to play the classics too like CSS and BF2 *erm even though I personally don't like CSS I appreciate its a classic and stalwart of dMw :)*

I'm with Dewey.. No BF2 :(
I understand however as this isn't much of a BF2 community.. still bummed..
Ninja I'm sure we'll be able to get a bf2 game going :D btw are you coming in for a game tonight - we've been getting more numbers in lately - 8.30pm

There are definately 10 BF2 peeps coming. Is there no room for a BF2 server? Shall we bring one?
i dont mind playing cs:s, of lfs but i couldnt do it all weekend, and im not going to pay for tf2 when i have all the games in the packs already, but i think that there should be a bf2 server, i mean theres nothing stopping us bringing one and plugging it in the switch, last lan we had good games with 20 ppl playing so lets do it, if ice doesnt need my 3.2 then its already set up for remote desktopping and as a bf2 server from another lan and it will probably run other games too
I'm definately gonna be playing BF2, I'm sure there will be enough peeps to have a decent game going.
I would like a game of BF2 at the LAN too:)
just 1 massive battle would do for me.
Would be cool to have normal bf2 game but would also like the mod we used to play where you have to get them in order - some of those games where mental :woot2: Mind you I enjoyed POE too
ya sweet..
Dewey, sorry I missed you guys last night. I was playing with my stick shift..
No worries Ninja, I just wanted to let you know that we are getting more regular games of BF2 on the BIG server - but now I'm also thinking I'd like to race too - damn why is there not enough time in the day for all these games? :devil:

Could bring another machine to run as Dedi server for BF + all mods and any others we care to play.

That would be really good. If you already have it set up it will save the LAN Server Commitee some work. :clap:
if ice doesnt need mine ill bring my spare which has bf2 server on already
Yeah, top echo Mats's words- that would be superb if you could.
The LAN server needs to be reconfigured from scratch so it would sure save some time. :stroke:

How come no-one has mentioned Generals? It doens't get much better than that :D
Quote from: sulky_uk;208101if ice doesnt need mine ill bring my spare which has bf2 server on already

Already fully setup :D as long as I don't kill it before I go and have to reinstall it, putting BF2142 on aswell.

Only if they release the server files for it
