Since making this video we’ve had a few new updates. One was about VScript - which gives more power to the community when it comes to making custom game modes which is cool. So just pretend I said something very insightful about that.
"Hello everybody it's me Gabe today in the heavy update we will be making rockets hitscan,halfing the Righteous Bison's projectile speed and damage, and nerfing scouts stock Bat because it was broken in comp now it only does 1 damage thank you" totally real script for heavy update
Thank you for putting this into perspective for everyone. If the past 5 years are of any indication, Valve's (continued) intentions seem to be "milking the game for all it's worth." Expecting a "major" update, or for Valve to go beyond the bare minimum, is a fool's errand. Bug fixes taken from a public github aren't indicative of anything beyond this, in my eyes. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'm not holding my breath.
I've only recently picked up tf2, around early September this year, since I heard about SaveTF2 from a friend and I've loved it. I just can't imagine what it would've been like back in the day when updates actually happened.
I came to TF2 relatively late (2014). On the one hand, I'm sad I missed all the major updates during TF2's heyday, but on the other hand, my expectations and feelings re: updates are not coloured by nostalgia, so the lack of updates doesn't make me as disappointed or sad as those who have been playing since the aughts.
I've been playing since the end of End of the Line and the start of Gun Mettle, the game was awesome at that point so I made lots of memories while I was still a f2p
All I want to hear from Valve is that they hired the TF2S2 and TF2C teams to develop the next iteration under Valve's lore guidance. They can stabilize this graceful grampa, develop and release it's successor, and only then laying it to rest. Basically a much better handled Overwatch 2 scenario.
TF2’s spaghetti code is ancient and so unwieldy that Valve refuses to actually work on the game. It’s been leaked to such an extent that bots and hackers call it their backyard. As is, they won’t ever give it meaningful updates as it’s like building snowmen in the desert. I’m not saying it needs a sequel, I’m saying it needs a full over haul to work on something better, like Source2. Same game, more advanced and streamlined code, with sharper graphics as a bonus. Nothing’s lost, only cleaned up so they can build upon it. Basically, a better-handled Overwatch 2 scenario.
Since the inception of my TF2 career starting December of 2013, I've been proud with the amount of quality updates I was able to experience. Most notably the first one I ever got to witness, being Love and War the following Summer in 2014. I remember the immense hype around it. The 15 minute long SFM was unheard of, the new weapons were a joy to play with and a big batch of taunts were added as well. (The most out of any singular update). This update was incredible for it's time with the amount of content we received, and even though I was only playing the game for about half a year at this point, I was still blown away. Generally, this update (and many others before AND during this era) had such a big-time feel to it. As others have usually quoted, feeling like "Christmas morning." That being said, the likes of Gun Mettle, Tough Break and Jungle Inferno were absolutely mega to play and took so many hours of my days just grinding out the different contracts, experimenting with certain balance changes, reading the new comics etc. Valve actually gave a damn back then and they really put in all that full-force effort into making these updates special and worth-while. But this goes without saying that 2016 felt like the beginning of the end for this game. I'm talking more specifically about Meet Your Match, which I believe was the day TF2 "died"...and I mean that with the interpretation that the game's decline became very apparent and saw no coming back. It was all in thanks to the horrible and broken matchmaking system that replaced Quickplay, the lackluster competitive mode and of course, having to compete with Overwatch releasing following E-sports which had burst on the scene. It truly was a sign of things to come. Now don't get me wrong, I still think this game is very relevant to this day with tons of people still playing and Jungle Inferno giving us a breath of fresh air with some pretty excellent content. However, if I want to be true to my word, the same charm that this game felt before 2016 just didn't feel present anymore. The way I look at it is that 2007 - 2010 was the Bronze Age: this was essentially Valve adding all the compulsory stuff that was needed like the specific class updates, core game functionalities (Replays/Saxxy awards, Seasonal events, porting to Mac/Linux etc) and hey, it even gave us our first share of hats which ultimately introduced us to trading. 2011 - 2015 was the Golden Age: everything about the game was under full swing, it brought us a lot of revolutionizing stuff like proper major updates such as the larger Scream Fortress and Smissmas events, big game modes such as Mann vs Machine, so much lore being discovered (like with Pyromania or End of the Line) and the game most notably becoming free-to-play in the year of 2011. Updates were very grand-scale and always felt like there was so much to look at and work with when these updates dropped. Regardless, I'm touching on 10 years playing this game and I'm still going strong. I just hope one day we would be able to live the glory days again.
I live in the American Gardens Building on West 81st Street on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I’m 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I’ll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
The "newest" official TF2 content I think we've gotten so far was a collab for a VR-exclusive game, "Hot-Dogs, Horseshoes, and Hand Grenades" with "Meat Fortress" in 2019. 95% sure most people have forgotten this crossover even existed or happened.
If there ever becomes a way to compile Vscript into the base game's executable (very unlikely because spaghetti), you could easily push updates via vscript. From what I can tell, vscript is very powerful, but not as powerful as having access to source code
Community maps that are seasonal should do what crasher did and add more gamemodes with a twist, I love crasher so much, too bad it cant be in the base game normally
I start playing tf 2 in 2019 I did not enjoy the game at the time But in 2020 I picked up a game again and I found out I am really enjoying it. I have no idea why I do not enjoyed the game back in 2019. I played around with all the classes and found out my favorite one is medic and my 2nd favourite one is sniper. Originally I don't like sniper to begin with but after watching Fat Magic videos I want to be as good as him. I picked up sniper again I practice like hell eventually I got pretty decent at it. TF2 is my 2nd favorite game all time. 🇬🇧🏴
My favorite update was the jungle inferno update! (I started playing in february 2017) (so yeah... I didn't really have many options to pick from... well ig the blue moon update was cool too 😁😁)
Meanwhile shitty ass games that litterally no one gives a shit about like Dota 2 get updated time after time again. Who the fuck is keeping these games alive bruh.
I’m too young to have played tf2 since 2010. I started in 2019 (barely before I gained common sense) and I loved playing it. In 2020 when everyone was on lockdown I found out that my friends started playing it too and I gained around 300 hours in the game. I sometimes wish I was one of the kids who got to experience this beautiful game in its prime, maybe if I was born in 2000 or something like that. I hope valve decides to actually do something, and soon.
You would of absolutely LOVED it, started in 2008 first year of high school, back when you had to buy the game and experiencing the amazing updates. Young gamers really get the short end of the stick in everything, feel sorry for ya.
@@Labyrinth6000 Bro thats so facts tho. Games nowadays are so insanely shit its insane. Theres a reason why people keep playing decade old games even now. GTA is still played a metric shti ton. Came out in like 2012 Minecraft is literally the TRENDIEST game conceivable, literally surpassing so much shit in popularity. Came out in 2009. TF2 has a massive playerbase. I still play it on and off, as consistently as I have 8 years ago. This isn't even restricted to video games either. This extends to everything from Music, Video games, Movies, and cars. I think the Music industry is in a crisis right now, since young people are listening to more and more older music. Even with the rap game, who the fuck listens to Yeat bruh. Same with video games. I haven't bought a modern game since 2019, only cus I wanted to buy pubg. Movies need no explanation, since we literally only get like 1-2 decent movies a year that arent complete snorefests. The media industry in general is in another self-inflicted crisis since young people are just watching anime now since theyv lost all faith in Hollywood. Thats just how life is. The people running our world now, arent the same people who made our world great to begin with.
I started playing TF2 in 2017 but didn't get to try Jungle Inferno until after the fact (my parents' five year old iMac crashed every time I tried to play). It hurts that I'll never get to experience a major update for my favorite game first hand.
Yeah, I think the heavy update is coming out tomorrow. It's Friday so they must release the heavy update on Saturday, when nobody has to go school/work.
I started playing TF2 just before Jungle Inferno, I can still remember waking up and being insanely excited to play the game. (Also, damn it's been 6 years I feel old)
I started playing on February 25th, 2020, and I couldn’t put it down, not for a good long 3 hour play time, even though I was F2P, the community taught me everything about how to play, I learned how to rocket jump from Soundsmith, played Pyro because of Lazypurple, Got good at spy because of Mr. Paladin, learned medic skills from… oh-what’s-his-name…, I started trolling as engineer because of Uncle Dane. Eventually I got the hang of everything and have been trying my own gimmicks. This game was amazing. If only we could get Heavy Update.
started tf2 a few weeks before jungle inferno when I was still a new y7 in high school. All these years later, I've graduated from high school for 3 months now, and yet tf2 is still on jungle inferno lol
I joined long into the dark ages, 2019. As a TF2 newborn I still expected a new major update relatively soon, since the last one was "only" 2 years ago. Now we're coming up on six years since jungle inferno, and I still adore this game, but I don't really expect anything to come from valve at this point.
Would you all be down for this totally, never-in-a-million-years, fantasy? So Valve releases a new major update, "Worth the Weight." They're up-front about it being the final major content update. However, they go all out. A brand-new SFM series, along with new voice lines, starring the original VAs. (excluding the obvious) New weapons not just on Heavy, but for several classes, a conclusion to the comics, some kind of magical anti-bot measure (remember this is just a fantasy) and countless fixes to ancient bugs/jank (example: can't vote sometimes after a round, random critical hits, melee hitreg, strange counters sometimes not going up, stuff like the random puffs of fire on the mannmelter) and finally reversions/reworks of weapons that have been nerfed unfairly. (Sandman, bison, baby face's, enforcer, etc) Oh also, a crate containing stranges of every weapon that can't be strange yet+some way to make the dragon slayer dragon's fury strange. That concludes the wishful thinking cope portion of your day. ^_^
Valve doesn't realize on what they're sleeping on. TF2 could be (one of) the best Casual FPS games out there, as well as Competitive. Even if the game is 15 years old already.
I dont know if I had a favorite update, but I started in 2013 and remember staying up past 2am on weeknights in some community server messing around with random new friends I made that night.
I joined really really late, at the start of 2021! But this game is so cool and has given me so many good memories already :) I regret not knowing about Tf2 so badly because around the golden age I was about the right demographic for the game, I just had a cruddy laptop and didn’t know the game even existed :’)
Been playing since late 2016, which is when people were joking about how "the pyro update is never gonna come out" and when it did I was super excited for my first major update. I've been playing non stop ever since and damn it's been 6 years and I have almost 2000 hours in the game, and in all that time, one update. One.
I have a bit of a theory that we will be seeing something huge in early 2023 (spring-summer). We have had multiple devs confirmed (with that whole +quickswitch fiasco), VScript, and a bunch of other things. 2023 Heavy Update.
Invasion has good sci-fi alien themed maps and Jungle Inferno was a blast of events (like pyro contracts) and bunch of tropical coastal themed maps, i wonder what Valve had in mind for the heavy update, cold themed Siberian/Arctic maps or else? if only Valve had firm commitment for this game.
Everyone asking if TF2 still gets updates. But no one asking if the updates get TF2. Until we start asking the real questions and focusing on answering them, we shall get the update we all deserve
I only started playing like at the end of jungle inferno. was pretty cool, but I don't feel like I fully experienced the update w/ the buildup & everything. it'd be nice to know what that's like w/ a new update, but I guess I'm ok with it never happening cause how can you miss something you never knew?
I will say, considering the ways of many MMOs just straight up shutting down and being inacessable for years, if not ever, the smismass and scream fortress updates are not something to just turn your nose at
if you ask me, the objective of the "team" work in the game is to get the most amount of money before people stop playing, and barely try to prevent people from leaving the game
Think I joined in late 2012. For me the Love and War update felt massive. Like the entire game was shaken up. A bunch of my friends got back into it and I remember having a great time
Im glad i joined during the golden ages of this game, when Yogscast played MVM, i ended up installing the game and could not have had a better time. I remember the love & war update the most though, the taunts were really funny.
Re-Logic: Oh what's that? One of our classes are still horribly underpowered, melee sucks, and we forgot to address a map breaking issue with one of the spreading biomes? Well here's an update that adds even more weapons and fixes that issue for you guys. We even added a new mechanic to lessen grinding on you guys so progression is more enjoyable. We're also working on another major content update just because we appreciate you guys so much. Valve: What's that? Competitive Mode is still broken, the game is still overrun with bots still, and community servers aren't played anymore? Here's some skins and a halloween update for the inconvenience, and we removed any sort of communication for F2P's, which should help with the bots for about a week. Now fuck off unless you're buying some keys or our new Steam Deck.
santa: what do you want for christmas? girl: a dragon! santa: come on, be realistic! girl: the heavy update! santa: what color do you want your dragon? girl: red?
The main cause of the bot problem was tf2’s source leak in April 2020. Don’t know what caused it, but I hope it’s fixable, if valve ever wanted to do something for once.
People really thought it wouldnt be much of a big deal. But honestly man, looking back at the source leak, it was prolly the ONLY reason why the bot problem is even a thing.
Please make a video on the VScript changes for maps and what it could mean for the rest of tf2. It's really interesting and I think you should check it out! VScript adds a way for mappers to use scripts in maps without mods, essentially allowing new custom gamemodes that can be put on the steam workshop for anyone to play. This may mean that more stuff is coming, they have just outsourced it to the community which may also mean that Jungle Inferno will be the last update from the official TF2 team. TF2 is nearing its lifespan... or is it?
I wish they would do something like a semi major update at least. Make a full rotation of Player Destruction maps to play all the time. It's so much fun at Halloween/Scream Fortress. It'd be popular if it was added to casual. Maybe make more of the weapons paintable. Why not? And yes we all want them to get rid of the annoying bots.
I started playing in early 2020 and recently hit 1000 hours, and from all that I have witnessed from this games pass, it makes me a bit sad at the direction the game has gone in. However, at the same time, it is good to see that even when a company decides to abandon a game, that the community can keep it alive. We can always have hope, and as long as we have that, we are going to live forever.

Since making this video we’ve had a few new updates. One was about VScript - which gives more power to the community when it comes to making custom game modes which is cool.
So just pretend I said something very insightful about that.
Many Custom gamemodes having a chance of been a oficial gamemode.
I fully agree with the insightful thing you said
so you made a video and uploaded it knowing updates were made
sounds to me youre video is already oudated
What’s VScript?
Toofty was actually contacted by valve to make this video to foretell of the Heavy update release
Don’t be teasing me like that now 😭
this is fake news
It's been 2 days, the 2nd heavy update has not released yet.
*I wonder why ? Because of the dota 2 card game, Valve disbanded the TF2 team. All comic staff ported to Dota 2 and Mr. raitt left valve*
@@C.A._Old hmm
Imagine if we would actually get a heavy update tomorrow.
I would broke my leg to nit go to school and play TF2
my dad is valve and he say tf3 coming in 6 days

"Heavy update is tommorow"
Me seeing this vid two days later: *intense anguish*
I'm not the only one who sees the Dragon's Fury as the new Flamethrower? Color me surprised.
Yeah, I think the heavy update is coming out tomorrow. It's Friday so they must release the heavy update on Saturday, when nobody has to go school/work.
When will we get more best loadout videos?
That ending is giving me a dangerous amount of copium
Vscript, tf2 classic, open fortress, tf2 source 2, clean fortress, news mods and community made game modes and maps being made monthly
I joined in 2019, your memories make me want to cry.
yo me too i think
I started playing TF2 just before Jungle Inferno, I can still remember waking up and being insanely excited to play the game. (Also, damn it's been 6 years I feel old)
i think i started playing on 2019, 2 years after jungle inferno
I started playing on February 25th, 2020, and I couldn’t put it down, not for a good long 3 hour play time, even though I was F2P, the community taught me everything about how to play, I learned how to rocket jump from Soundsmith, played Pyro because of Lazypurple, Got good at spy because of Mr. Paladin, learned medic skills from… oh-what’s-his-name…, I started trolling as engineer because of Uncle Dane. Eventually I got the hang of everything and have been trying my own gimmicks. This game was amazing. If only we could get Heavy Update.
I'm honestly still very upset that there are STILL no strange versions of the Jungle Inferno weapons
I've been wondering about the number of updates recently, ty very much for making a quantitative analysis to refer to
started tf2 a few weeks before jungle inferno when I was still a new y7 in high school. All these years later, I've graduated from high school for 3 months now, and yet tf2 is still on jungle inferno lol
*heavy update ACTUALLY comes out tomorrow* haha amirite :(
heavy update releasing today?!!??!?!?!??
I joined long into the dark ages, 2019.
As a TF2 newborn I still expected a new major update relatively soon, since the last one was "only" 2 years ago.
Now we're coming up on six years since jungle inferno, and I still adore this game, but I don't really expect anything to come from valve at this point.
Would you all be down for this totally, never-in-a-million-years, fantasy? So Valve releases a new major update, "Worth the Weight." They're up-front about it being the final major content update. However, they go all out. A brand-new SFM series, along with new voice lines, starring the original VAs. (excluding the obvious) New weapons not just on Heavy, but for several classes, a conclusion to the comics, some kind of magical anti-bot measure (remember this is just a fantasy) and countless fixes to ancient bugs/jank (example: can't vote sometimes after a round, random critical hits, melee hitreg, strange counters sometimes not going up, stuff like the random puffs of fire on the mannmelter) and finally reversions/reworks of weapons that have been nerfed unfairly. (Sandman, bison, baby face's, enforcer, etc)
Oh also, a crate containing stranges of every weapon that can't be strange yet+some way to make the dragon slayer dragon's fury strange.
That concludes the wishful thinking cope portion of your day. ^_^
Valve doesn't realize on what they're sleeping on. TF2 could be (one of) the best Casual FPS games out there, as well as Competitive. Even if the game is 15 years old already.
Maybe they do.
At this point I'd be surprised if we get a major update before we get a new team fortress game
Lol that thumbnail just says it all
I dont know if I had a favorite update, but I started in 2013 and remember staying up past 2am on weeknights in some community server messing around with random new friends I made that night.
I joined tf2 in the dark ages
I joined really really late, at the start of 2021! But this game is so cool and has given me so many good memories already :) I regret not knowing about Tf2 so badly because around the golden age I was about the right demographic for the game, I just had a cruddy laptop and didn’t know the game even existed :’)
Same I joined late 2019-2020 it’s a perfect game to goof around in
It's a major update if you can refer to it as "The X Update"
Kinda falls apart with blue moon but you know it's a start
Been playing since late 2016, which is when people were joking about how "the pyro update is never gonna come out" and when it did I was super excited for my first major update. I've been playing non stop ever since and damn it's been 6 years and I have almost 2000 hours in the game, and in all that time, one update. One.
This aged well
THIS SUMMER TF2 GETS UPDATE
Did you really start playing the CRYPTO LUIGI instrumental in the background of this video?
You should do 3 new weapon for each class concepts 2.0
I joined a few months before jungle inferno. I remember eagerly waiting each day for the next video. Those were the days.
I have a bit of a theory that we will be seeing something huge in early 2023 (spring-summer).
We have had multiple devs confirmed (with that whole +quickswitch fiasco), VScript, and a bunch of other things. 2023 Heavy Update.
Because I only started like 8 months ago my favourite update was the snakewater update
I started planning literally right before jungle inferno dropped. My first major tf2 update was my last. I hope one day this statement will be wrong.
Wait… are we just not going to discuss the sniper that materialized out of thin air 0:45
He went around the ledge you see him standing on in the next shot.
Invasion has good sci-fi alien themed maps and Jungle Inferno was a blast of events (like pyro contracts) and bunch of tropical coastal themed maps, i wonder what Valve had in mind for the heavy update, cold themed Siberian/Arctic maps or else? if only Valve had firm commitment for this game.
Heavy update tomorrow??? LETS
GOOOOOOOOOOO
POOTIS
well, i have something to tell…
Plot twist: We are having source 2 tf2 in 8 years
Everyone asking if TF2 still gets updates. But no one asking if the updates get TF2. Until we start asking the real questions and focusing on answering them, we shall get the update we all deserve
I only started playing like at the end of jungle inferno. was pretty cool, but I don't feel like I fully experienced the update w/ the buildup & everything. it'd be nice to know what that's like w/ a new update, but I guess I'm ok with it never happening cause how can you miss something you never knew?
I will say, considering the ways of many MMOs just straight up shutting down and being inacessable for years, if not ever, the smismass and scream fortress updates are not something to just turn your nose at
oh yeah I can confirm heavy update happened, then I woke up
if you ask me, the objective of the "team" work in the game is to get the most amount of money before people stop playing, and barely try to prevent people from leaving the game
may look small but the map scripting update we got recently may bring new maps and maybe more gamemodes in the future
Think I joined in late 2012. For me the Love and War update felt massive. Like the entire game was shaken up. A bunch of my friends got back into it and I remember having a great time
The Team fortress community has entered the same schizophrenic stage as the titanfall community.
Heavy updated soon guys wow (camera pans to me in the insane asylum)
I was once hopeful of the heavy update, now I just want Valve to confirm that the game won’t receive any major updates.
Im glad i joined during the golden ages of this game, when Yogscast played MVM, i ended up installing the game and could not have had a better time. I remember the love & war update the most though, the taunts were really funny.
I feel like a company doesn't owe you infinite free updates. People should be happy the game even got this many with how old the game is lol.
Re-Logic: Oh what's that? One of our classes are still horribly underpowered, melee sucks, and we forgot to address a map breaking issue with one of the spreading biomes? Well here's an update that adds even more weapons and fixes that issue for you guys. We even added a new mechanic to lessen grinding on you guys so progression is more enjoyable. We're also working on another major content update just because we appreciate you guys so much.
Valve: What's that? Competitive Mode is still broken, the game is still overrun with bots still, and community servers aren't played anymore? Here's some skins and a halloween update for the inconvenience, and we removed any sort of communication for F2P's, which should help with the bots for about a week. Now fuck off unless you're buying some keys or our new Steam Deck.
Best first 5 seconds of any tf2 video you’ve made. Rip UPDATES
Where is the heavy update toofty, where is it??? WHERE IS IT!?
santa: what do you want for christmas?
girl: a dragon!
santa: come on, be realistic!
girl: the heavy update!
santa: what color do you want your dragon?
girl: red?
maybe they’re giving it 9 years to really put the “M” in “Major Update”
The thing is, IF something changes at Valve itself and that employees get assigned to a certain project, TF2 will prosper. If not life support it is.
Valve has ignored us with save tf2, perhaps we need to take more drastic measures..
The main cause of the bot problem was tf2’s source leak in April 2020. Don’t know what caused it, but I hope it’s fixable, if valve ever wanted to do something for once.
The issue is fixing it, which isn’t gonna be easy.
People really thought it wouldnt be much of a big deal.
But honestly man, looking back at the source leak, it was prolly the ONLY reason why the bot problem is even a thing.
Please make a video on the VScript changes for maps and what it could mean for the rest of tf2. It's really interesting and I think you should check it out! VScript adds a way for mappers to use scripts in maps without mods, essentially allowing new custom gamemodes that can be put on the steam workshop for anyone to play. This may mean that more stuff is coming, they have just outsourced it to the community which may also mean that Jungle Inferno will be the last update from the official TF2 team. TF2 is nearing its lifespan... or is it?
Looks like Valve decided to spray wd40 on the valve.
I wish they would do something like a semi major update at least. Make a full rotation of Player Destruction maps to play all the time.
It's so much fun at Halloween/Scream Fortress. It'd be popular if it was added to casual.
Maybe make more of the weapons paintable. Why not?
And yes we all want them to get rid of the annoying bots.
"OOPS"
imagine the owner of valve just woke up one day and just casually updates tf2
I started playing in early 2020 and recently hit 1000 hours, and from all that I have witnessed from this games pass, it makes me a bit sad at the direction the game has gone in. However, at the same time, it is good to see that even when a company decides to abandon a game, that the community can keep it alive. We can always have hope, and as long as we have that, we are going to live forever.
