i guess they saw the lack of players who still actually play the game and decided this was the best move...

Gabe does never disappoint. Too bad the rumors about dota 2 being f2p were not true.

TF2 is probably DotA2's guinea pig.

so essentially now the games more powerful items will cost money. so whoever has the most cash get the most op weapons.

That really doesn't make much sense but ok...

You can get every item in the game for free from trading and drops.

You realize how long TF2 has been out right?

This is either a great idea or bad idea.

I'm hoping for premium only servers.

I think if a AAA game like dota 2 decides to use a f2p model instead of the classical one-time 50$ model, it potentially yields much more money in the long run.

A lot of mixed feelings, a lot of paying customers are demanding refunds.

Premium players have an advantage over f2p players. Stop crying

jk. I demand a refund because I bought Quake 3 Arena for $50 bucks and Quake Live is free.

I'm not really sure why so many people are upset about paying for the game and now having it free. If you bought it a week ago and had played for a few hours sure, but I'm sure a ton of people upset with it are people who have hundreds of hours played.

Consider the $10+/- cost everyone paid went towards getting some 1-3+ year early access and hours of fun...

edit: Guys the movie I paid for in the theaters years ago is now playing on TV for free! I demand a refund!

this isnt the first time tf2 has been free... there is nothing to complain about for tf2 players

they always make tf2 free just before any major updates so players who dont have the game can check it out and buy it if they like it. its basically like a free trial version.

i bought this game in 2007 and still play it to this day


Yea but they always returned to being not free afterwards this means that its free to play forever.
