Hey guys, as a long time CS player and picking up CSS since its birth and enjoying every moment of it, i would like some info on TFC, if you guys care to share it with me. I have played it and quite enjoy it. I would love to pick it up now and player with the large community of players still playing it, i heard that theres over 5000 servers playing full? I would also like some history if possible please. was it a big hit when it come out, loads of people still, how is the game now, thank you.
 
The game was released ages ago and I spent around two years playing for clans from div 4 in the UKTFCL to the Prem.

The game base died a lot and I do not think sites such as UKTFCL still run leagues at one stage we were in UKTFCL, Wireplay, Clan Base and a number of other leagues game was amazing, i remember the old barrysworld servers.

http://uktfcl.far2cool.com/ was quite big in the UK, I do miss playing it

I stopped playing around 3-4 years ago but still pick it up now and then.
 
I've picked up TFC again after a 2 year break playing at Prem/European level, started playing summer 99 (TFC was released April 99 btw..).
Not sure where you got 5000 servers now, but I think it's more like 500 servers at any one time.

TFC was quite a big hit, it was the second biggest game below CS online. I still believe it's the best fortress game around and that has ever been around, even more so that TF.

To be honest I think the game is on it's last legs, there are, I believe a few leagues running but very few clans.

dont you mean fortress forever ... and forever .. and forever ..

because thats how long its taking :D


I know lol, it seems that i nthe 2 years I was away not a great deal happened :P. I really think though with a good Marketing Strategy (PC Mag demo disks etc) the mod could become huge.
 
cool, ive read some reviews and it sounds like a great game. its dirt cheap so ive ordered it and gonna download it in a second even if there are not much servers, should have a blast.
 
All the TFC jolt servers are good i still play 7/8 yrs on :) cant get enough of it , roll on TFC2

I was in a clan called BIA we won a few bits like barrysworld prem in its 1st year and a few times at the iLANS ect. Was in most leagues wireplay uktfcl bla bla allways in the top 4 in its hayday.

Pfft, TFC was a game for low-skilled n00bs compared to QuakeWorld TF. :p

so unbelievably true.

Anyone here play in the UKFN QWTF league?

Quality clans such as SG, Mr Men, DIS, CSS, etc etc....

I remember playing L u V in a UK v L u V game... wow they were good :eek:

Roll on TF2 :)

TFC has gone alas, all the good times aswell .... although i think WPTFCL are still running a league, but i really dont know how many people play.

Fortress Forever is the only hope left really!
