The Orange Box collection by Valve is a fantastic deal for the money. The problem is that the only game in this collection that features multiplayer action is Team Fortress 2. While the comic book style characters and bright colors give it a nice feel there is not alot of depth in the gameplay. The game also suffers from constant server lag and slow down. There is nothing like trying to finish a hard achievement only to be fully destroyed not by the enemy but rather by lag death. Everyone suffers from lag death syndrome. There is no treatment. There is no pain relief from this torment of online gaming.
Well there is also no good news on this front. There is no new updates to look forward to or new maps to try out. Valve has all but given up it seems on this otherwise fantastically fun game. Not to mention there is some really interesting achievements to be earned for those Whores out there that just can't resisit the temptation to play Dust Bowl over and over just to make sure they get the full achievement quoto from each game. Hey listen we know what its like. We're whores too. But why oh why Valve.
The game would really beneifit from some tlc to make it more playable. And if there is ever a thought about a Team Fortress 3 being produced all we ask is one little favor. Some like vehicles and bigger maps. The very thought of 3 gamers with chain guns and a flat bed truck driven by the fourth just seems like a recipe for carnage and sweet success. A true death match mode would be great accompaniment for such an addition but no news is bad news for us whores, i mean gamers!
The hope is that Valve will make a 3rd installment and press for a much more complete version of an essentially great idea. Here's to hoping. Please just think about it Valve. x-mas is around the corner. Maybe a little server make over would be nice. (and PS. MTAF, Reignorofsin sunk the island off the coast of Madagascar, he said something went wrong at the petting zoo. No idea what that could mean. But a rainbow was seen off the coast just afterwards.?)
