I just played the demo and I didn't have any of these problems. The game controlled perfectly for me, and it was actually quite fun. Might be some problems on your end?

Anyways, I could see it getting rather hectic with four dragons on a single map. It's pretty fun terrifying towns into being loyal to you while trying to sabotage the other dragon while trying to gain more gold and kidnap princesses while protecting your fearfully loyal towns from the other dragon (and occasionally giants). And that was just on the small map they give you in the demo with a single AI dragon as your opponent.

So, what's up with the update for Team Fortress 2?

The notes just say: [restricted].

I think it's in regards to the hat from the Potato Pack. Either that or something in regards to the potato things in general.

It's a conspiracy, man!

After redownloading the demo, this appears to be the case. I got it to work.

What's going on with the ARG?

Bells · 04-07-2011, 12:55 AM

it seems overly complex stuff and i'll just wait for the end result

Shyria Dracnoir · 04-07-2011, 01:04 AM

I'm predicting either something amazing or an anticlimax worthy of His Highness Brian Clevinger.

Aerozord · 04-07-2011, 02:15 AM

I honestly hope its not a portal 2 announcement, I am already gonna buy it, anything else is just unwanted spoiler

Bells · 04-07-2011, 03:33 AM

there are theories about it...

like this one

P O r T A l T w O

The letters in potato come from Portal 2.
POTATO
P O T A T O
P OrT AlTwO

and portal 2 has a Potato related Achievement

And today (04/07) there is supposed to be a Portal 2 Announcement.

We already know the release date (and it's near), it's coming for the PS3, it's Coming for the Mac and PC... So, either thet are annoucing some sort of Portal Spinoff Episodic stuff (my guess) or something else similar...

There is some linkage to TF2, but almost none to Half Life 3. So it's more likely that we get a Multiplayer Focused Spinoff a'la TF2 but Portal Themed, than anything else, really.
