i know you could install the whole steam folder elsewhere, so therefore indirectly you change the whole location of the game files tongue.gif

bear in mind the drive letter of location HAS to the same all the time to avoid problems when running the game
means be carefull when you install to removable hard disk / ext hard disk, make sure it mounts back with the same drive letter
*
IC...too much hassle...My steam client is already installed on my C:\ I got 10GB spare in this partition...I suppose that would be enough for TF2 and space for my work(programming stuff).

Cant wait to get it notworthy.gif

I'm getting p8wned. The game is more complex than i thougt. I mean you definetely dont get the feel from watching a video online. It just plays very different and there is a lot of skill in it. Anyway I'm enjoying the game. Hope to improve a lot.

Great games deserve to be supported. These games are classic. Pirating them isn't a very nice thing to do(it never is).

hehe.. good news then. will most probably buy it from steam using paypal.. gonna find a way to buy it since i dont have a verified account.

yeah.. CSS gets a bit boring after a while. only thing that keeps me playing CSS are the deathmatch servers biggrin.gif
*
credit card? TF2 is a classic. bought it 2 days back and I'm totally hooked. This game has a lot more character than many single player games too...which is a great feat for a developer.

TF2 has a lot more teamwork then cs, and I can assure you that there is no such thing as camping in cs. Even the snipers dont camp. Get TF2 mate, you won't regret it.

Oh yeah, at nite, servers are full house.
*
Isn't the engineer a camping class? hmm.gif I dunno I'm new to the game so its my initial observation. I'm sure it could be used offensively...but mostly engineers camp.

I just generally find other servers with ping sub 100...Its good enough...Cant wait for the servers to have a free slot.

Engineers have many ways to go about. You can be defensive, but that doesn't mean you have to stick behind you sentry and keep hitting it. In fact, engineers that do that are bound to die.

Offensive engineers have the most fun, being in the front lines resupplying your team mates and trying to move up your sentry as well as your teleporters. Now thats where the rush is. Thats where you feel that you are actually helping the team in terms of firepower and support. One of the best moments for an engi is slipping into the enemy stronghold and building your exit teleporter there.

Classic.

Haha! Thats true...thats what i love about this game...there is no one sure win strategy rclxms.gif There is always a counter for anything.

One of my clanmates actually stopped playing TF once he tried TF2 because the graphics were "unrealistic". I mean, seriously. Do we honestly NEED yet another "realistic" game? I say let MOH, COD and BF do it. Gimme mah TF2 cartoon graphics! It's a fresh change. smile.gif
*
The graphics also allow the game to look fresh, unique and great as the games becomes old too. Realistic graphics always look dated with time since there will always be games that trump it in the near future. Not that TF2 needs to depend on its graphics since its gameplay is first rate. tongue.gif But the graphic style does lend to the feel of the gameplay which is quite rare in a game.

QUOTE(plankton @ May 24 2008, 11:37 AM)
wanna ask, if i ask someone to buy TF2 as a gift for my account, can he do it from a newly created steam account (empty/no games in new account)

SHouldn't be a problem.

Aye see TF2 is getting famous by the minute i do say~ Hopefully it will not turn into another game where people brag how good they are just to get attention and not helping noobs to get better at the game (Looks at DotA's Community)
*
TF2 requires more brain power to play...I'm not too worried it will turn into that. tongue.gif

Be on the move often, keep your back to the wall(whnever possible) and watch your back from time to time. Spies are useful...dont hate them...tailor your game to take them into account.

EDIT : Ever been harrassed by an annoying sniper? Have a lousy sniper on your side....Spies are probably the only other class that can remove this annoyance.

I sent a Steam gift to a friend, but that person never received it. What now?

You can resend gifts in case your friend's email gift message was lost. If you are resending to a new (or corrected) email address you should be able to resend immediately. If you are attempting to resend it to the same email address the Steam system requires that you wait 24 hours to prevent the spamming of users. When you resend a gift the previously generated email will become invalid and the “accept” link within it will no longer work. Your friend must use the latest version of the email when accepting the gift.

pcgame.com.my sells it for RM85...but its back order...which means they dont have stock...you may have to wait...call them if you want to confirm when you can get it if you order.

Well no wonder i got that weird message by Destructo. Then next thing i knew i can't access my steam account anymore. Had to register an account with Steam Support, told them i can't remember my secret question and they reseted the secret question. Now the account is back. Anyone know where i can change the secret question?
BTW what happen to the LYN group?
*
you can change your secret question on your steam client. Just select file, then settings, change password and 'i want to change my secret question'...
