Some time ago we added Team Fortress 2 to the games we have available to play, and I have to say, that up to this point, setting up the TF2 server and keeping it updated has been just about a complete waste of time. And yes, we even have stats for it, which if you look at them, has been an even bigger waste of time. However, we've kept hanging on to TF2, and not removing it from the rotation because it really is, a terrific game. And it keeps getting better.
One of the reasons why we've never played it is even when someone has voted for it, we haven't had enough players vote to make it worth running the server. Well that might be about to change, and it may well be that the effort that has been put into it will be worth it. Valve is developing full fledged bots for TF2. TF2 has always had bots, but they haven't had much in the way of a.i., so you couldn't really play with them or against them. They weren't good for much more than testing purposes, or taking screen shots, and questionable even for that.
Well now the a.i. for the bots is in the process of being fully developed. If you are interested there is an official forum for discussions regarding the bots, and hopefully it won't be long before we will be able to add them to the server, which will I think mean that we will finally actually get to play some TF2.
