Vi no Steam que este jogo agora é free to play. Alguém daqui por acaso joga? Por acaso não querem apadrinhar um noob?

Team Fortress 2 Gun Mettle Campaign arrives tomorrow

Players of Valve's free-to-play shooter Team Fortress 2 will very shortly be able to enjoy a new update called the Gun Mettle Campaign. To join the campaign you will have to stump up $5.99, but in return you will get three months of Team Fortress activity where you test your mettle on a variety of skill-based contracts, and pick up campaign-exclusive weapons or unlockable weapons cases as rewards. There will also be three new community made maps and fresh taunts made available during the campaign.

The Team Fortress 2 Gun Mettle Campaign provides paying punters with a contract system which will run for three months. Every week during this campaign period you will be assigned two skill-base contracts. Each contract includes a challenge and an advanced-level objective worth bonus points. Valve gives the examples of "Get a kill with a reflected projectile as Pyro. Survive 1000 damage in a single life as Heavy. Kill an airborne enemy with your secondary weapon as Soldier." If you are successful in these contracts you will earn an exclusive weapon or access to an unlockable weapons case.

TeuFort and Craftsmann weapons can be had through completing contracts and the Powerhouse and Concealed Killer arms are available in weapons cases. Weapons you can earn from the contracts are one-of-a-kind with unique paint jobs, several levels of wear, grades and rarity. Valve stresses that these weapons won't alter gameplay or provide competitive advantages but some of the rarer weapons will have a 'strange capability'.

Though we have given you advance notice of the start of the Gun Mettle Campaign, those who wish to start it late, even a few weeks late, will still earn the same number of contracts as those starting tomorrow. There will be no more access granted during the last month of the campaign. After the campaign ends players can keep all weapons cases, keys, weapons and other items and you will be able to trade such items too. A portion of the cash made from campaign sales will go to the community map makers.

Team Fortress 2 set to get major update

Team fortress 2 is set to get its first major update in quite some time, with new maps, challenges and guns soon to head to the game. This new update will consist of both free and premium content, there will also be a new campaign by the name of ‘Gun Mettle’, which will be a three month long event.
During the Gun Mettle campaign players will take on different skill based challenges, which offer different rewards on completion. These will include surviving 1000 damage points as a Heavy class, or killing an airborne enemy with the soldier’s second weapon.

Rewards to these challenges will be one of a kind weapons with “uniquely placed paint jobs”, this way every player will get a slightly different weapon skin. Like in CS:GO, there will be varying levels of rarity and therefore worth on the marketplace. Participating in the campaign will require a $6 pass purchase.
There will be a new map for free players known as Powerhouse, which will be a three point control map. There will also be new community made maps heading to the game, the makers of which will earn some money from the campaign pass sales. Aside from that the update mostly consists of gameplay tweaks and balancing.

Team Fortress 2 is getting competitive matchmaking very soon

Team Fortress 2 is finally getting the competitive matchmaking services that it rightfully deserves.

Valve has put together a plan and shared it with fans on how they're going to implement matchmaking, and when it'll arrive. It'll be a slow rollout and the beta testing will be limited to those that have purchased the now free-to-play game. If you bought it rior to June 23rd 2011 or bought it from Mann Co. Store, have Steam Guard enabled and have a phone number assoiciated with your account, then you're likely to be invited quite soon.

The almost ancient competitive multiplayer, class-based shooter is finally getting something that it's needed since it was first introduced in 2007. Like many other competitive games, finding a server to play in put you in an open-slot based on availability, and not rank or ability (such as with CS:GO).
