Team Fortress 2 Celebrates 119 Updates
Valve is dedicated to their games. Very, very dedicated. Like 119 free updates to a game which doesn’t require a subscription dedicated. Well, the team responsible for the adored FPS is aware of their own hard work and are throwing a celebration.
On their hilarious 119th update page, Valve claims that in the intervening time since they began working on the 100 updates celebration, 19 more cropped up. According to their Valve Time conversion chart, the 30 minutes they spent throwing together the blog equates to about five hours.
Very few developers take care of their fans like Valve does. 119 updates is a staggering number approaching MMO-like heights.
I think my favorite update was when they “Removed centerprint texts for TF_FLAGTYPE_INVADE CTF game mode.” Classic.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
