Team Fortress 2 is getting its ARG on...

Post by Duane Dibbley »

Well, Team Fortress 2 has an ARG: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/ARG

Does anyone on here play? What have you found? So far, I've gotten two pocket lints and a goldfish. There is some speculation that this is a buildup to Meet the Pyro. Also, between this ARG and this, I'm guessing the Steam Summer Sale will have a mystery theme.

I'm thinking of collecting as much lint as I can. Yes, I'm that insane.

It's cool to see TF2 is getting cool updates again.

I've gotten the lint and banana peel. People are buzzing that its about the 'Meet the Pyro'.

Haven't got any of these, but I'll keep an eye out. My stupid free account, lack of understanding this loot system, and playing with a controller leave me usually lost on this game, honestly.

The Pyromania update launches on Wednesday! Check out today's blog post and a teaser for the new map! This bit made me LOL:
"That's a pretty catchy song," we said. "Who sings that?" Well, we don't want to upset you, so we won't type it here, but suffice it to say the band that wrote 'Safety Dance' has the most unthinkably offensive name we've ever heard.

I like the sound of this new map. :lol:

So they are going to get Attack/Defend CTF maps? Wow, that was unexpected! Let's see if they get some fixes for it :)

I also love TF2 illustrations :)

That new rocket launcher sounds pretty awesome. The new flare gun amuses me, though I don't know how viable it will be; depends on how severe the knockback is.
