Nobody can say romance is dead, given the events of Leap Day earlier this week. Internode staffer and avid gamer Taryn Hicks took the opportunity presented by the extra day this February to pop the question to boyfriend Derek. (By the way: did you know that “girls can propose to boys on Leap Day” is a thing? I didn’t!) The fun twist that sets their story apart is that all this went down within a game of Team Fortress 2, using an in-game engagement ring item called “Something Special for Someone Special”.
With both Taryn and Derek being habitual players of the online multiplayer shooter, she couldn’t have come up with a more fitting way to do the deed.
After Valve released the Team Fortress 2 source code, developers and modders are reviving TF2 VR, making it bigger and better than ever.
Seems dumb, multiplayer fast paced VR... Sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Source 2 versions of the games they had, remakes or sequels to their games should've come out like a decade ago, now they'd need a heavily upgraded Source 2 or just Source 3 to be up to par with current engines tbh..
Valve: "Mod makers, rejoice! We've just released a massive update to the Source SDK, adding all the Team Fortress 2 client and server game code. This update will allow content creators to build completely new games based on TF2. We're also doing a big update to all our multiplayer back-catalogue Source engine titles (TF2, DoD:S, HL2:DM, CS:S, and HLDM:S), adding 64-bit binary support, a scalable HUD/UI, prediction fixes, and a lot of other improvements!"
Behind the aimbots that have plagued Team Fortress 2, a far more sinister story of harassment has unfolded - and it's only getting worse.
